Reception
- The first title in the video game series, Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of Goku, received negative reviews from the press[1] and die-hard gamers who were expecting a more sophisticated experience.[2] The game sold over 1.22 million copies, however, in the United States.[3]
- The second title was the best ranked of the video game series, receiving excellent reviews. Due to its sales, however, the game was released by Banpresto in Japan (being the only title in the video game series to be released there) under the title Dragon Ball Z: The Legacy of Goku II: International on July 23, 2004.
- The third title received mixed reviews, mostly positive. Most critics have said that the game was an excellent RPG and had good graphics and sound, but was far too easy. It has a 69% average on Gamerankings.
