Play Dragon Ball - Dai Maou Fukkatsu (Japan) Online

Dragon Ball: Dai Maou Fukkatsu is one of those NES games that feels like it was made just for fans—clunky in the best way, with Goku’s sprites looking like they jumped straight out of an old manga panel. You’re basically running, jumping, and smacking enemies with the Power Pole while Piccolo’s minions swarm you. The controls take a second to get used to (why does crouching feel so stiff?), but landing a full combo with Goku’s flying kick never gets old.

It’s not the deepest fighter, but the boss battles are where it shines—Piccolo’s fight actually makes you sweat a little, especially when he starts spamming energy blasts. And yeah, the music loops like crazy, but that 8-bit rendition of the Dragon Ball theme? Pure nostalgia. If you’ve ever wanted to punch a pixelated Tambourine in the face, this is your chance.
