Namco Bandai has announced two new titles from the Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z series for Nintendo DS and Wii. Wii owners go back in time with Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo, while Z-fans should look out for Dragon Ball Z: Attack of the Saiyans which is set for Nintendo DS.

Namco Bandai Games Europe today announced the forthcoming launch of a brand new role-playing title for Nintendo DS, Dragon Ball Z: Attack of the Saiyans, and a 3D action-title for Wii, titled Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo.

Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo (Wii) Scheduled for European launch this autumn 2009, Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo promises to thrill fans with the first ever appearance of the original Dragon Ball story on Wii in glorious 3D.

Heading back to the early days of the Dragon Ball story, players will control Kid Goku as he sets out on fantastic adventures with his friends. The title faithfully reproduces the uniqueness and special humour of the early Dragon Ball series, while adding an original blend of action and adventure to the mix. With the original Japanese music and voiceover included for maximum authenticity, Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo offers fans a dazzling new experience with the characters and universe they know and love.

The visuals in Dragon Ball: Revenge of King Piccolo take the series to a new level by faithfully reproducing on-screen the original drawings of legendary Dragon Ball artist Akira Toriyama down to the finest pen strokes. Thanks to the high-quality, state-of-the-art graphics, fans will be able to immerse themselves in the Dragon Ball universe like never before.

Game modes include Story mode which follows Kid Goku from the Red Ribbon Saga to the King Piccolo Saga with the ability to replay previously completed stages, and the unlockable VS mode where players can take different unlocked characters into battle.

Dragon Ball Z: Attack of the Saiyans (Nintendo DS) The game follows the Saiyan Saga of the original DBZ story starting from the World Tournament and Goku's triumphant defeat of Piccolo. Players will take the role of Goku and travel the DBZ universe from jungle to Snow Mountain on their quest to victory.

Dragon Ball Z: Attack of the Saiyans features a host of original features which will be sure to thrill fans, such as brand new gameplay, unique game modes, fun side quests and content never before seen in either the anime or manga series.

Dragon Ball Z: Attack of the Saiyan is set for a release this autumn 2009 in Europe and the PAL regions.

More details about both exciting additions to the DBZ range of video games will be announced soon.
