Product Description

Please note 3DS console required to play - not compatible with original DS consoles The newest instalment to the world-renowned fighting game franchise, Dead Or Alive Dimensions makes its way onto the Nintendo 3DS. Dead Or Alive: Dimensions is the latest chapter in the Dead or Alive series of 3D fighting games. It is a strategic fighting game where a range of characters battle in 3D arenas, using a mix of fighting moves. This is the first time that a Dead Or Alive fighting game has been available on a portable system, and also first time on a Nintendo platform. Enjoy the complete storyline of the DOA series, with a new Chronicle Mode that retells the entire saga, with new exclusive parts of the story which solve previously unexplained mysteries. This is a 3D fighting game, which means that the two opposing characters can move into the background or the foreground with specific commands, hence turn around each other and attack from the sides and from the back; the action does not take place along a flat "2D plane". The stages where the battles take place can be interacted with. For example you can throw opponents through walls or break into new areas during the fight. The player can fight CPU or human controlled opponents in a series of matches, depleting the Life gauge of the opponent is the required condition to win each match. The range of characters include beautiful women and zany personalities. New to the Nintendo 3DS game are fully autostereoscopic 3D visuals, enhanced online functionalities, StreetPass functionalities and the possibility of executing combos by selecting them from a list on the Touch Screen.   Fast-paced, stylish fighting in 3D Uses the 3DS for wireless battles with friends, as well as utilising its StreetPass/Tag Mode for data exchange Features in-game move list on the Touch Screen with possible Touch Screen input for easy combinations Sure to give fans the definitive

Wow. This is definitely the best game I have for the 3DS. Both the gameplay and graphics are awesome.

The game features a bunch of modes. "Chronicle" is the storymode, where you battle through 5 chapters summing up what happened in DoA 1-4. It's a mess, but it's still really fun. Then there's Arcade, Survival and Tag Challange, 3 other fun modes.

There's also online play, but it's a but of a mess. You can battle random strangers (from the entire world or just your region) or your friends. But the framerate can sometimes slow down a bit, regardless of who you're playing with.

There is a total of 25 characters to play, and maybe there's one more secret character? I won't spoil that. But there really is a lot, and they all have at least 3 costumes each. Every day you get a new costume for a character through SpotPass, so a character can have up to as many as 7 costumes!

Costumes aren't the only "prizes" you get, though. Sometimes you unlock a figurine of a character, which you can then look at in 3D, and take pictures if you want. But wait. You haven't heard the number of figurines. It will blow your mind... Because there's a whopping 999 figurines to collect! After about 10 hours I had only colected 12% of the figurines!

The game is really beautiful, with or without 3D. While 3D adds a really cool depth to the game, and stuff (the logo and other titles like "Winner" or "Loser") literally comes out of the screen, the framerate does suffer from this. It's halved to 30 fps, while the 2D mode runs at a unbelievably smooth 60 fps.

But overall this is a really great game. I spent a couple of hours on the Chronicle mode, and a bunch of hours on the other modes. It's really fun! So it's definitely a must-buy!

(And yes, jiggle is 3D is awesome)

Had this game from release and so glad i made that choice.
Dead or Alive: Dimensions' cast of impossibly proportioned females makes it all too easy to dismiss it as a form of mere titillation, rather than a serious fighting game. Yet underneath its busty exterior lie fast-paced 3D battles that eschew complex button combinations in favour of agile reversals and counterattacks.
Graphics are top-notch and a big smack in the face for anyone doubting the 3ds's capability - if games like this are being released so early in the consoles life then the future looks very promising for this wonderful handheld. With such fantastic graphics it also moves a an incredibly smooth rate with is i suppose the most important feature for a fighting game.
What makes this game special is anyone can pick it up and pull off winning combos straight away (there is a fantastic tutorial tagged into chronicle mode also), but to master it will take a while especially considering there are 25 charaters all with different styles and combos to perfect. Perfecting the throw and counters will take dedication, but you will be more than willing to put the time into this great game.
While most fighting games shoehorn their storylines into their arcade modes, Dimensions tackles things differently, with an ambitious mode called Chronicle. It tells the story of the first four Dead or Alive tournaments via in-engine cutscenes and prerendered videos, which are split across five separate chapters and interspersed with one-on-one battles. Trying to make sense of the story is a nigh-on-impossible task, though but it is a nice addition to the normal arcade, tag battles and online modes. Street-pass and spot-pass are very much part of this game also, setting up throwdown challenges from people you meet through the 3ds.
Overall, a great fantastic game. Everyone should pick this one up, especially since there isn't much out right now for the 3DS. Its worth the money to add to your library.

Ever since I played and reviewed Dead Or Alive on the PSone, I've developed somewhat of an interest in Tecmo's beat-'em-up creation. Partially because it's a very good smack-'em-in-the-face series, and partially because fighting with the female characters is the closest I'll ever get to "pulling" in my life time. With the Kasumi marriage reference from my DOA review still wafting around the nasal passages of my Asperger Syndrome affected brain, I've decided to take a look at Dead Or Alive: Dimensions on the Nintendo 3DS.

Dimensions is chock full of options. There are 25 fighters in this game; with eight of them available from the start, including the likes of Kasumi and Zack. You can unlock the others as you play the game. There are several modes that'll keep you occupied until Hell's Kitchen's Elise Wims finally realizes her cooking and attitude sucks (that is to say: a very long time). The modes include Arcade, which puts you in a series of matches that gradually get tougher as you go along; and Survival, in which you must survive an onslaught of aggressive opposition, starting out at 10 fights before working your way up to 100.

The main event of the evening is the Chronicle mode. This is the game's story mode, which involves a company called DOATEC, a series of fighting tournaments, and numerous fighters wanting in on the tournaments for one reason or another. The story mainly revolves around the Ninja characters of Kasumi, Ryu, Ayane and Hayate. Is it epic? Is it riveting? Is it Oscar-winning and capable of making Ayane cry tears of joy and say "You like me! You really like me!" during her award acceptance speech? Hardly. But the gameplay is fantastic, and that's all that really matters to the hardcore beat-'em-up fan.
