description
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.

    Awesome
    This game rules. The combat makes the game a Smash Bros Brawl DS, but without the the assist trophys being picked up. Any Shonen Jump/anime fan should get this, they will not be disappointed.

    OMG!
    This game is AWSOME! If you are a Shonen Jump fan you must get this game! There are multiple charaters to choose from from all of your favorite animes/manga from Shonen Jump! It's funny that they have Ichigo 100% andI''s charaters in this game and I am glad they have them cause they are my favorite manga/anime! If you buy this game your going to enjoy it so much! Arigato Play-Asia!

    EPICNESS
    ... is all i can describe this with. it is the greatest FIGHTER for the ds, keep in mind i said fighter. The characters and arenas are from the jump graphic novels, both japanese and american series and are each unique in most ways. The controls and menus are easy to get used to as a english or other language speaker besides the in game language used. however, the mission mode, or jump universe mode requires an online guide to know how to complete missions and extra objectives, as you need to complete them to unlock characters. the graphics are a little better than gba (but don't let that confuse you, it alot better than one) and the wifi play against reall players in laggy depending on your wireless connection and number of players fighting. there is over 40 fighters to choose from along with countless support characters that aid you! I thought i wouldn't understand it but i figured it out within a day as an english speaker and that surprised me. all you will need as a non japanese speaker is a mission guide for all the time and a menu guide to memorize and get to know when you start.

    so basically:

    GET THIS EPIC FIGHTING GAME

    Great for party playing and soloing
    The controls area easy to learn and you get to play with allmost all of your favorite anime characters. The gameplay is somewhat similar to super smash bros, but with "normal" health system (health bar), but because you only have to see your own character it doesn't have to zoom in and out all the time and there are markers for where the enemies are, so you allways know where to go to.

    The game supports single card play, but then it just randomizes your characters between, naruto, lupin(one piece), and some character I did not recognize, so my suggestion try to get your friends to get the game too ^_^

    The unlocking process can be a bit of pain for us who don't read japanese, due to the 'mission' based levesl (you have te beat a the level enemies with special attacks, or support attacks, don't use block , etc) but luckily there are walktroughs written in english.

    By far the best ds game ever
    I'm soo glad I got this game. It was given to me as a present last year and I never stop playing it. It's usually the only thing in my DS, for a year strong. I've unlocked all of the characters and they are amazing. Every different form of the character brings something new to the table, the online play is seamless, if you can learn how to make the perfect strip it will be awesome! It takes some time to get used to, but take time in the training mode, it will help you a lot. Every Shonen Jump character you have ever known and loved is in this, especially if you are a Japan oriented anime fan. I'm not saying that the American known characters are better ( You know, Ichigo, Goku, Kenshin, etc.) But some of the characters from the animes that are only out in Japan can do a lot of damage too, don't underestimate anybody! This game is seriously addicting and easy to get used to. If you're not Japanese savvy ( Since there is a LOT of text) Just check your local game guide websites for some translated strategy guides. Have fun and enjoy!

    Also, a word to the wise: For those who think that there's a best character, there isn't, once you think you have the best character you will quickly find somebody who's a counter to your 'best'. Believe me, it makes it soo much more fun.

    hazlen_t (2) on 06, Mar. 2008 00:16 (HKT)

    oh boy
    i do not know where to begin...
    i mean, one of my decks has kenshin & goku another has yoh & vegeta, and and other has train & ichigo. yes frame rate chokes when players are on top of one another blasting super moves, BUT that's the only and relatively insignificant flaw.

    people talk about interactive maps, wi-fi compatibility, or simply the very fact that it has all-time favorite manga characters in one.

    but, the thing that surprised me the most was that being a ds game, containing all the other features, the move set of each character varies in a wide range.

    at first, i expected all the characters being basically the same, except different art.

    however, that was not the case at all! (i mean, except for dragon ball z, but they are all saiyans!! and they have different flashy moves neway)

    kenshin has his ultimate move as described in manga yoh has amidamaru as his oversoul and does kick-ass moves, and goku's after-image kamehameha in
    super-saiyan 3 looks freakin' impressive.

    with, virtually, endless things (characters, etc) to unlock, it's gonna keep you interested with the single-player mode alone.

    and then there was WI-FI. dum-dum-dum-dum. there's no ending the fun now with wi-fi.

    well, i just got it 2 days ago, and i have to get back.

    This. Game. Is. Awesome!
    This is the only Japanese DS game that you MUST have.
    NO don't tell me you don't have enough money or you can't read japanese.
    1. Get a job.
    2. You don't need to know a lick of Japanese with all the guides
    Anime/Manga fans dream.

    A manga fan's dream
    What other game out there allows you to have Kenshiro and Jotaro beat the mess out of Goku and Naruto? A truly wonderful experience. The completionist will spend many hours trying to unlock every koma there is (I've been playing since it came out and still haven't got 100%), the casual gamer will find it easy to pick up like Smash Bros, and the manga fan will be overcome with joy. The only problem I have with it is that series like Dragonball Z get a ton of battle characters while series like Hokuto no Ken, Rurouni Kenshin and Jojo's Bizarre Adventure get 2 at most, but it's not like that wasn't an understandable move. This is still an absolutely amazing game, and even more fun with other people.

    Jump Ultimate Stars is Great! End of Story!
    This is best DS game, even wins Mario Kart DS.
    Creating own deck is awesome, Stradegies are awesome,
    (Except the 3 support koma spamming), Fighting's awesome. Only bad thing is single players's lenght, but hey! It was WI-FI! Full points!

    Not the best DS game... but the BEST Handheld!!!
    All of God's Creations cannot amount to the fun I had on this game, during my freetime in Iraq, on my way home, and even now... I play this game. Every chance I get. This is the only true game where all come together. I believe that this game should be upgraded to the Wii system. It deserves a worldwide release. Everyone knows the name, but do we truely know which character is the strongest in this combined J-Universe. Everyone deserves this game. a 20 out of 10!

    One Of The Best DS Games Around!
    I just got Jump Ultimate Stars today and I like it already. The only problem is I need to learn a little more Japanese, and I wish they had it where you could chang the language to English it would help a lot of peolple. Besides all that this game is better than good its Great!!!

    So addicting, I've been playing it nonstop, there's guides and tips, etc, on gamefaqs.com. I just ordered this not long ago, about a week ago and I've been playing it since I've had it. Thanks a bunch play-Asia! Keep going, I love this site, just surfing it. xD And don't forget to buy this game, it's extremely fun.

    Awesome Game!
    It's a very great game with lots of thinking having to be used when you are deep inside the game. It's just like having Super Smash Bros. for the Nintendo DS. Having such a range of characters and missions makes this game a must-have. If you are anime/manga fan and have a craving for a great fighter on your DS, then look no futher than to Jump Ultimate Stars.

    Excellent
    One of the best games on the NDS. . .The fighting system is almost perfect with tons of moves and varies from characters and there's hundreds of characters to choose from. . .Although it's in Japanese but don't let it put you off as there are guides online and during the game Japanese won't be much of an obstacle. . .overall great game. . .one of the best. . .BUY IT!

    Best Game
    This Game has got to be one of the greatest ever made for the NINTENDO DS. It is the manga version of SUPER SMASH BROS. This is a must buy. If you have already played JUMP SUPER STARS, then know that JUMP ULTIMATE STARS is atleast twice as good if not better!!!

    twinfiresofdarkness (1) on 15, Jul. 2007 03:29 (HKT)

    ...almost perfect
    This game is amazing-simple fighting system, great controls, huge list of collectable characters and a whole lot of fun. The character evolution is as good as the serif koma system from the previous game. The only flaw with this game is the length of the story. There are only about 100 levels, with 5 goals each. In the previous one, there were easily a lot more than that, each with 5 goals again. The muliplayer system is brilliant, although i have only 1 friend who has the game. I'd advise that before you get this, go for jump super stars, then when you have finished it, go for this, as it is well worth it. Im still collecting characters, so it is a very long game when trying to get everything. Get it.
