Is that Wiimote charger that holds 2 Wii-motes a good idea? How much do SD cards for the Wii go? Can I just use any old SD card or does it have to be one of the ones made for Wii?

**izembo** · 2007-07-07 18:36

an SD card works, but they're pretty useless. they're only usable for backups really, the system cant read off of them for saves, so you have to copy the stuff back onto the system memory when you want to use it.

**Exoduso** · 2007-07-07 18:48

The charger is meh, it makes the batteries really heavy and I didn't like it... but I guess if you don't care about some extra weight it's good, and will save you a lot of money in the long run cus the wiimote kills batteries pretty quickly (or, you can just buy regular rechargable batteries at some random store and you still have the regular controller weight, only you don't have to have all that extra stuff for it.. your call though.)

Any SD card works, but like Izembo mentioned the Wii doesn't read anything off of them, you would have to copy back and forth (and the memory on the console itself doesn't run out that quickly to promt a new SD card so whatever... but yeah don't get one that says "for Wii" on it, it's just a cover up... those wii ones work on anything, just like all the regular SD cards work on the Wii.)

yea, i dont like the charger because it unbalances the wiimotes. thats enough reason to me not to buy one :/

**Norelco** · 2007-07-07 19:09

Damn, that's good to know. Thanks for the answers guys. I definitely don't want to unbalance them.

New features

Several new features absent from Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 have been added to Budokai Tenkaichi 3. These include:

* Blast Combo - Players can now kick their opponent into the air and attack them again by quickly teleporting behind them. For example, if the player selects Goku, they can kick their opponent into the air, use Instant Transmission to quickly warp behind them while still being sent upwards, and use his Kamehameha to deal more damage to the opponent.
* Sonic Sway - This technique simply allows the player to evade the opponents attacks. Since it takes longer for the attacker to get back into their fighting stance than it does the player dodging the attacks, the attacker is left with an open defense. The one evading can then quickly counter-attack their opponent. However, this feature only applies to physical attacks aimed for the upper part of the body; if the opponent aims for the player's legs, for example, they cannot evade the attacks.
* Z-Counter - The ability to counter attacks by teleporting behind the enemy. This is a technique seen in the series many times.
* Z-Burst Dash - An enhanced version of the dash attack from the previous game, this time the player can zig-zag to dodge attacks or surprise the enemy.
* The addition of a new day and night system creates a better connection to the original manga by allowing certain transformations to occur under specific conditions. At night, players can harness the power of the moon to transform into certain characters, such as turning a Saiyan into a Great Ape.

Guess they finally added the stuff from Budokai 3 and shin budokai(I think) .. now its going to be a lot more interesting to fight and making me want it more.

I played the Dynasty Warriors: Gundam demo last night, I think it's the first time I actually enjoyed a Dynasty Warriors game for more than 5 minutes.

**izembo** · 2007-07-08 11:59

yea, it was pretty fun, i gotta say it was exactly what i was expecting it to be though. the moving around definitely made it easier to play dynasty warriors with being able to fly tho.

Holy crap that was awesome.

I don't think the Wiimote charger unbalances them at all. If anything, the added weight is a little better, and I have experienced no problems whatsoever with it.

It is only $30 so I think it is definitely worth it. Also, it replaces the back to the controller with a better grip which is really nice.

All in all, my opinion is it's a great product if you have a Wii.

**Exoduso** · 2007-07-08 20:33

Still better to just buy regular rechargeable batteries though..

Yeah, cheaper, faster to recharge, lasts longer and more versatile.

**izembo** · 2007-07-08 20:34

regular rechargeable batteries with charger is like $20.

the added weight sucks, and the grips suck. that's my opinion on it at least, and everyone is entitled to make their own
