Is Buu's Fury REALLY That Bad?!

- We have reached the end of the Legacy Of Goku trilogy. While reviewers marked Legacy Of Goku 2 as both an excellent rebound effort and the best in the series, Buu's Fury was noted as a step down. Like with the rest of this Gameboy Advance exclusive series, I took the dive back in time to find out whether or not those reviewers were actually right.

Our Legacy Of Goku trilogy is complete! What series do you want to see me return to next? Fire away! You're the reason this all exists ❤
I’m a relatively new subscriber, so I’d like to see Kingdom Hearts if you haven’t done it already.
Would love to see some Tak/Tak 2 goodness! Those two games are amazing and blew my mind as a kid. Also interested to see your take on viewtiful joe 1 and 2, never got to play those. God bless you in Jesus name matty hope you're doing well!
Mario and luigi superstar saga is a great gba rpg
Naruto ninja council would be sick. i only got to play the 3rd one on the ds
Thanks for the DBZ gba retrospective, if we're sticking to GBA for now perhaps check out DBZ Supersonic warriors to round out the GBA DBZ experience, Summon Night Swordcraft, Contra or the Mega Man Zero series.
I haven't ever heard of this game having a bad reputation and this is coming from a 20 year video game seller. It's widely considered to be a great DBZ game and has always had high demand.
Yeah I've always thought it had a very positive reputation too. I remember being 8 or 9 years old when it came out and begging my mom for it. I have very little other memories of doing that so it's kinda cool, but yeah the game is probably in my top 3 dbz games. I put so much time into it when I was a kid
1 CZcamsr says LoG 2 was the best and now alllll I've been seeing this past year is how buys fury was too easy and it sucked. I love both games but I feel like buus fury was so damn fun and I replay it every now and then
It's not hated but it's always been derided as "not LoG2", also carries a lot of the typical Buu Saga stigma where the largest individual chunk of fans seems to put the Cell Saga on a pedestal and shit on Buu
I can say back when I was a kid, it did have a bad reputation in my area which was surprising because dbz was the anime and everyone here liked it but I only remember one friend liking it out of the group kids at my school. I still don't get why it had that reputation once I got to play it many years later.
it's the power of CZcamsr's Charisma.
it's best to have a mind of your own rather than listen to them.
Seriously why do you think New Vegas is Hugely popular and Fallout 3 is considered garbage by comparison even though both games are pretty much fine in their own right both with their own strength and weaknesses.
or why Nintendo is mostly loved by 20+ year olds even though the games are lack luster and are mostly for children.
Why everyone thinks Digimon Survive was the worst selling Digimon game even though it sold well on steam and PlayStation (some CZcamsrs believed it was only on switch)
They ain't the smartest just the most charismatic.
No one has ever said this was bad. It's arguably one of the best games for the GBA. It had bad marketing and the name change made it fly under the radar.
It never felt right being buus fury, legacy of goku iii would have worked better
@@bhunivelze420 facts 🔥
Who in the right mind said this game was bad 😮 am they crazy
Clickbait title
Bet they were mad.
are* they
am they crazy?!?!
@@admiralAlfonso9001 are* 😆

About to watch the video, but gotta say, Buu's Fury is surprisingly accurate to the anime, has a ton of content, and was one of my favorite games when I was a kid. Love that game.
The major surprise to me honestly, was when I saw Broly's appearance in this one. That _really_ threw me off.
@@LuminesBreezer-- but it’s accurate bc of the second broly movie
Unlocking Gogeta was honestly so much fun as a kid. I loved doing it so much and absolutely love this game, spent so many hours playing this game.
Nothing left to do after you get him lol
@@shulkisreallyfeelingit2251 Just to have something cool to beat the shit out of enemies Dragon Fist, and Big Bang Kamehameha
Hell yeah dude. That part was insane.
Buu's fury is so good! It took what 2 did to the next level! I loved that game as a kid
Unlocking Gogeta as a secret character in this game I remember very specifically haha I loved all the legacy of games so much
Played the Legacy of Goku series on the Nintendo Game Boy Advance handheld system back in my late childhood and my early teenage years in the 2000 decade while I was in middle school.
The cool thing about Fusion Reborn being in this game was that, at the time, the movie hadn't been officially released in the US yet. This game was the first time we were seeing the plot play out, and Webfoot actually based their in-game script on fansubs.
wait is that facts? thats dope as fuck if true
@@MyNameJefff Yep! Fusion Reborn came out in the US in 2006, Buu's Fury was 2004. One of the lines used in Buu's Fury is word-for-word of a famous line from the fansubs that wound up being changed in the official subs and English dub.
Lol crazy how they gave him dragon fist!
@@GamingintheAM0801 what's the line?
I know I rented this movie off of the anime end cap of my local video store in like 1999 or 2000. It was in Japanese with English subtitles, so it may have been a bootleg, though I wonder how it found its way into a chain rental store.
Starting at level 60 is really nice, and gets even better when you consider the fact that in Legacy 2 the max level was 50. So this is sort of an indirect continuation of levels between games and a cool way to integrate story progression into gameplay.
Imagine a remake of the entire trilogy on one package on the switch😍
Isn't a remake of this in one game basically what DBZ Kakarot is?
@@EskChan19not even close lol.
Fuck the Switch. Underpowered Garbage
I don't normally care about if stuff is "mint conditon" but keeping a piece of fiberboard looking like that since the GBA era is pretty impressive
I love the scouter mechanic and how multiple characters can have more than one scouter readout depending on when you scan them. I always tried to get them all
If anyone wants to max level a character in this game(or all of them if you're mad like me), I would recommend getting the "GOKUU" hat before you reach lvl-100. If you wear the hat while leveling past 100 you will get an extra stat point. If you reach the max level of 200 with the hat, your stats will also max to 200 as well. I believe the "GOKUU" hat can be found in the Ninja Temple level in a treasure chest. Happy level grinding!
i remember doing something like that to try to max out the stats of everyone.
This was the best one in the trilogy, music and gameplay wise... whoever thinks it wasn't obviously didn't play it.
I dunno, it did seem a bit rushed, with how short it was and how many level gates there were to make the game seem longer than it was. I think LoG2 was better by a bit because it felt more natural in how it progressed. But yeah, the gameplay was better than in LoG2. Everything that was there was good, there just should have been a bit less level gates for enforced grind and a bit more actual content here.
Odd title, I have never heard of this one being bad. I actually loved it myself lol.
I've heard ppl criticize how there was doors blocking your patch all the time instead of once in a while like the Legacy of Goku 2
@@luisfilipe2747 Yeah that is a valid criticism but just because people dislike one small part of the game doesn't mean they think it's "really that bad". I do dislike that there's so many level gates but the game is still great.
I have so many fond memories playing Buu’s fury as a kid. I found the game to be very hard because I didn’t realize I could add to my stats. I feel like I would be punching a boss character for 15-30 minutes. Years later, I randomly played it again and I noticed the stats points and I was sweeping enemies 😂
You played it on hard mode
This was me too then when I realized I could add to my stats around fighting super gotenks buu I was unstoppable after that 🤣
Man the infinite senzu bean glitch made so much of the grinding in my play through sad a kid bearable. Literally ate the senzu you’re supposed to get for videl on accident, finished the plot line, and next I knew I had 255 senzu beans 🤣
Huh? Lol. Never knew
Thanks for the video Matt! Unlocking Gogeta as a secret character was the best part of the end game haha loved this game so much
The only problem was, by the time you unlocked Gogeta there was nothing left to do in game as you pretty much unlocked everything at this point. In LoG 2 you could unlock Hercule and you still could level him up and then unlock secret ending, while playing as Gogeta was kinda pointless and just for fun.
While not exactly part of LoG series, GT Transformation developed by the same studio let you play entire game with various unlockable characters like Uub, Vegeta or even Baby. But LoG formula doesn't really work with "New game+" idea.
Does anybody remember the secret boss fight against Broly?! That was such an AWESOME easter egg hidden in the game, this series will always be my go to DBZ game on the GBA!
No? OMG ima go do this now
That was a secret? I thought it was required for the collecting dragonballs main story quest.
Wasnt a secret boss fight its in the main story when you collect the 7 dragonballs
There was a secret boss fight against Cooler on New Namek in Legacy of Goku 2 though
Hey Matty, just wanna say I've been a fan of your content for a long, long time. Still remember you freaking out over Fallout 4 way back lmfao. This Retro channel is absolute class and is one of my favorite channels on CZcams period. Excellent, excellent work man. Keep it up.
With Bleach’s epic return, you should review the handful of Bleach games that have been released over the years across different platforms
Confession time: What if I haven't watched Bleach...?
@@retrorebound8887 Yikes.. what are you doing? Go watch BLEACH fam. Just be sure and skip the filler!
@@retrorebound8887 It’s an awesome anime.. if you like Naruto and DBZ, chances are you’ll like Bleach. Kubo’s art and character designs are unmatched
@@retrorebound8887 Read the manga or only watch Bleach without the filler if you can find a guide! A good Bleach game I think you would like though is Bleach the 3rd Phantom. It is like Bleach Fire Emblem.
This game was insanely difficult on my first 9 year old playthrough. I didn't know about character stats so I never powered up my characters. Took hours to defeat any boss.
Awe the joy of being a kid
Another nice detail I've noticed is that when you're running from one screen to another in Buu's Fury it doesn't stop you until you quit running or hit a wall unlike LoG 2.
Another small mention is that the character profile pics have different emotes in certain dialogue ranging from their default happy face, to mad, to confused, and Gohan changes drastically after he gets his Potential Unleashed/"Ultimate"/Mystic form.
Nice detail really gave it more charm. I love LOG2 but the profile pics for a lot of characters were kinda funky
I didn't know that Buu's Fury got bad reviews, it's actually a great game and my favorite of the LoG series.
BTW I would love to see a Battle Network review :)
I truly enjoyed Buu's Fury. As a child i didn't have much luxury so i repeatedly played certain games such as this one. I managed to figure out my own system of making the game more challenging based on the use of equipment and stat customization.
Also, i haven't seen much mention but in a few comments, another dragon ball game was made after this for GT. A review would also be really neat if possible ✊🏼
Aw man, I used to love Attack of the Saiyans! I'd wanna see that video for sure
Yeah, really wish they would have continued that series. Turn based RPG DBZ was really cool.
I remember really having a Great Time with Buu's Fury. Great Vid once again Matti!
I’m really glad you covered the legacy of Goku trilogy, and when you mentioned Naruto Ninja Council I got excited. I’d like to see you go through at least the first 2 of those, I grew up playing them and it would an awesome trip down memory lane
It is CRAZY how you’re blasting me to my past with these games man. I LOVED playing this game. I borrowed it from a buddy at school and could not stop playing it. I didn’t know ppl were saying it’s a bad game. It was amazing to a kid like me. Awesome game, awesome video.
wow you just awoke a memory in me with those megaman games. Question about them, if i wanted to play which game should i play? i remember loving it so id love to play those again.
awesome man been waiting for this one another great video! ive loved your videos talking about these games so thank you but more dragon ball and naruto gba or ds games would be cool to see
This games amazing to me, it even managed to fit in two of the movies into the story
Thanks for making these videos man
This was basically my favorite Dragon Ball game outside Budokai 3 and Tenkaichi 2 and 3 for YEARS
If you want to make Buu's Fury even easier, when you have to go to Korin to get a Senzu Bean for Videl, eat the bean before returning. this will glitch the game and give you 225 Senzu Beans
Why only 225?
@@annedrieck7316 That's the max for an 8-bit value in hexadecimal (which is 0xFF)
@@DoctorMario606 Has nothing to do with hexadecimal, that's just a representation (in fact bits are binary, not hexadecimal). 8-Bit means you can have 256 values(with one being 0 so up to 255). Though with that the initial poster is wrong, it gives 255 Senzus, not 225.
@@annedrieck7316 A computer (which a console ssentially is) stores variables like the amount you have of an item in a so called Integer, that is basically a number represented by 8 binary(0 or 1) numbers (though nowadays it's usually 32 or 64 numbers andnot 8 but back then consoles didn't have that much RAM). The way binary works, having 8 digits means you can have 256 values. But one of these values is 0 so it goes from 0 to 255. That's why in many older games 255 is the max a number can have.
That said, if you eat the bean you now have 0 beans. Then you go talk to Videl and give her a bean. The game is coded to just do your beans -1. But you are at zero and here, computers have something called an "Underflow", which is that if you do -1 on the lowest possible number, it "Flips" all binary digits, so 0000 0000 becomes 1111 1111 which is 255. And that's why you have 255 Senzu Beans if you do this trick, because the programmers basically forgot to make the game check if you have a senzu bean and only do -1 if you have more than one.
@@EskChan19 Ah, thanks for correcting me!
Where can you buy such a protective case - for the post-game packaging?
I search ebay and can't find the same anywhere.
I would like to ask some of you to provide me with a link to buy. Please.
Oh I'm already in for Attack of the Saiyans
Thanks for using that remix of GT's main theme (Dan Dan), and name dropping the Faulconer tracks being remixed for the game
i've started with buu's fury so imagine playing the first legacy of goku after buu's fury.. it was really a pain in the ass to finish. But i liked legacy 2, was very close in quality to buu's fury
I've literally never had a conversation about the best Dragonball game where this one wasn't brought up. The idea of it getting poor reviews is surprising and laughable.
Attack of the Saiyans is great! Would be awesome to see that next.
Now thats a rare one. Probably my fav dbz game, just in how much it feels like the anime
The Legacy of Goku trilogy was my favourite series on the GBA. I'll never forget finding out about Buus fury years after playing LoG 1&2 and binging the entire game immediately. The fusions were amazing! A remaster port/collection on Switch would be amazing. Great video Matty. I'm still begging for a Mega Man Legends 1-2 video!
A remastered port would basically be dbz kakarot
Great video, it was nice to see your opinions on the gameplay and grind. I would love to see a series on Naruto Ninja Council! I played a bunch of them growing up and remember them fondly. I'd love to see how you feel about them between the sprite work and the combat.
It might be nostalgia, but I love this game. Being a huge fan of DragonBall as a kid, I enjoyed grinding out my favorite characters and playing as my favorite character (Ultimate Gohan). I really enjoyed this look back at some of my favorite games and hope you continue doing more!
I will never forget getting this game for Christmas and like all kids I ignored the manual and just went into it. Had the hardest time with it on my first play through. It wasnt until the dragonball side quest with goten and trunks that I finally noticed the stat icon and hit A in the menu and realized I wasnt using the stats. The second I did suddenly every common enemy that was kicking my ass were going down with one punch it blew my mind. I then recall a few weeks later in the school bus another kid was having the same problem so I had to let him know! Also that sensu bean glitch makes all play throughs since just a good chill time. Love this series
Are you gonna do the dragonball GT game that came out on gba ?
Id LOVE if you did the Ninja Council series!
I think this game did something cool that almost no other RPG has done.
It starts you as already having some levels, as if you are actually continuing from LOG2.
Also, Sunzu glitch is best glitch ever, fite me!
This was One of the first gba game I played when I was in high school. Truly loved this one. Would love for you to cover Dragon ball Advanced Adventures as well!!
Would love to see you check out the xenoblade chronicles series, I've just bought the definitive edition for switch and am really enjoying it. I don't think you've done a vid on it yet and there are very few videos on this game in general. Keep up the good work!
12:50 song name? is ut gohans anger but beepy?
I still have this for my gameboy advance sp and im actually replaying it as we speak! Been playing it since I was a child and never stopped since. I hold this game dear to my heart and it will always be replayable for me.
I remember not understanding how the gate system worked so I grinded Gohan so much to the point where he was too strong for the game before realizing that you had to use a certain character for the door
These videos are so dope🔥🔥🔥
You should do Attack of the Saiyans! Such an underrated game! Also, are you GamingGoose's son?
When your first introduction to Gohan Angers was this very video game
The fact Legacy of Goku 2 explained Vegeta’s absence in the Cooler film due to turning into a Super Saiyan, made me like it so much more at the time.
You should go over Attack of the Saiyans, I wish that game got a sequel. The Supersonic Warriors games would be cool to see an overview of
That physical copy looks so nice. I'm jealous! Only have digital versions on my 3DS
A review of the original Legacy of Goku is one of the 1st videos I made for my channel before I was spending my entire life at work lol
I’d love to see some Golden Sun content!
Great videos!! You have to give attack of the saiyans a chance if you've never played It. Its a great game, looking forward to see what's coming next :)
As a massive megaman fan myself, I would love to see you go through ALL the mega man titles there are!
Great video! I think you'll like Attack Of The Saiyan's for the DS, the only thing you may not like is they use Japanese audio when they call out their attacks.
Kinda unique that it was Japanese audio in the US great game would’ve loved to see the names saga but kaioken goku taking out broly works😅
I'd love to see this series go with more longer series, like final fantasy and tales of
15:37 i love to imagine someone just cornering a boss or enemy and going
"FIGHT BACK! FIGHT BACK NOW! FIGHT BACK!"
I'd love you to do the Megaman Battle Network games, maybe as a lead up or preview as to what we might see in ghe LC
i used to love playing this game when i was a kid. the grind was soo much and the enemies were so strong i had to level up and keep going to the same place. but it was fun when you progressed.
The gokuu hat was so fun to wait for. I did a run to skip as much exp as possible until i got the gokuu hat. With that, i was able to nearly max every stat
what I love about buus fury is the way they try to fit the movie saga into the buu saga :D you got Fusion Reborn and Broly Second Coming in one long storyline along with Buu Saga
Man, you just brought back so many memories. I totally forgot you can fight Janemba and Broly in this game
I would love a hd remaster of all the Legacy of Goku and Buu's Fury games!
What happened to your old channel?
I would like to see your reviews on the Naruto Ninja Council series since I have only played the Naruto Ultimate Ninja series from 1-5 and Storm 1-4. Would like to know how Naruto games fared on handheld.
This game was not received negatively. It was more positive than anything else!
Yeah it just came out at a bad time a month before the Nintendo DS dropped
@@micenabled9418 Plus dropping the Legacy of Goku title was pretty stupid too since this way this seemed like a random new Dragonball game on a dying console instead of the end of a trilogy which probably would have made people more interested.
@@EskChan19 that’s honestly what I thought when I saw it a random game that covers the most dragged out Arc
Still remember playing multiplayer during lunch at school. Good times.
hey can you do super dragon ball z for ps2? ive never seen anyone talk about it and im convinced it was just a fever dream from when i was like 7
In reference to you wanting more movie content in the game, The Dragon Ball collecting chapter also has the second Broly movie. LoG 2 also had a Cooler boss fight.
Would love to see a video on Tactics Ogre on GBA, especially with the new one coming out soon.
It being called buus fury instead of legacy of goku 3 definitely made it harder to know it’s a sequel I remember my cousin telling me he got it and beat it 3 times before I even knew about it he let me borrow it and bam it was my favorite ssj3 goku and gogeta fully playable at the end after collecting everything omg so fun
I love seeing these old games❤❤ play them a lot
This was literally the game that made me a DBZ fan, I remember playing this for WEEKS on Gameboy when I was young just enacting dumb scenarios. This game is childhood and it's amazing. Nobody can tell me otherwise
legacy of goku 2 and buus fury are gems. i loved these games as a kid, now im 25 bruh. time flies
Never seen a single soul say buus fury is bad
Have you done Dragonball GT transformation
i would love to see you review more gameboy advanved titles. maybe minish cap or metroid fusion
My childhood right here, an isometric rpg dbz game that goes from gokus sacrifice to his return to beat Kid Buu, I really wish they could make Legacy of Goku 4
This game was beautiful and I replayed it a good 7 times after you beat the gohan mission the game really opens up
I really wish we could get a sequel for attack of the saiyans on the switch!
I honestly love the gameboy game content and interested in naruto or dbz games. Love the content man!
people didn't like buu's fury? that's the first i heard of it...
Would love to see some Ninja Council related content.
i would love to see a series of megaman battle network 1-6 one day
My brother got this game and he let me play in one of the profile slots. Personally, we both loved it, though it did have a bunch of glitches that would ruin our slots. (I remember the energy bar would get messed up and couldn't be fixed)
You sir , have a beautiful Gameboy advanced. I miss mine so much.
about to watch the vid and i respect whatever your view is, but i just gottta say this has been legit one of my fav games growing up
Battle Network was such an awesome series. Loved those games! Can’t wait for the collection!
I still hate that we didn't get 4.5. Really would have had a time with that one too.
Attack of the Saiyans next! I love that game. I was so upset it didn't get a sequel.
I pray that they make a new one. I loved the 1st 2 and never got to play Buu's Fury.
I love playing this game through emulation. The option to speed up the game makes the grinding pretty fun.
This game was amazing. The grinding does get to be a bit too much especially if you're someone who just wants to run through games. But for me it wasn't that bad until you had to play as Goten and Trunks (who I didn't use at all until I had to)
