Jump Ultimate Stars is the sequel to one of the best selling games of 2005, Jump Super Stars. It is the second collaboration between Nintendo of Japan and Jump magazine, this time incorporating 300 characters from 40 Shonen Jump properties.
The "Koma" battle system will still be used in this sequel with the original 4-by-5 grid and touch screen support. However a number of improvements have been made, including calling support characters into battle via L/R button, without using the touchpad. Characters can now cling on to ledges when falling adjacent to them and some of the stages include areas that can be reached by destroying walls, even the floor and ceiling.
As another major improvement, Jump Ultimate Stars now supports Wi-Fi battles, which allows gamers all around the world to combat against each other.
Amazing this game is one of the best fighting games i have played on DS. At first, i was a little concerned about the foreign language and how i would cope with it but its really easy to interpret and understand what the game is asking you to do and once that passes, everything else in the game rocks!

very good The game is the closest thing to a smash bros game on the ds, except with the jump characters. With over 100 characters and combination there are endless possibility on how you can set up your own fighting team. The game is pretty user friendly for those who don't know Japanese and there are faqs that translate the extra missions for those who want to complete the game. They also improved it compare to the first since there are more characters, you can dash, there is wifi play. A good game for those who are a fan of jump comics and shonen jump.
