Buu's Fury in Spanish and French: Giving the Trilogy Finale a Local Title
When Webfoot Technologies closed its Legacy of Goku trilogy with Dragon Ball Z: Buu's Fury, the game came out in North America on 14 September 2004 published by Atari. Spanish- and French-speaking fans who followed the Majin Buu saga on television had no official edition in their language. This reproduction answers that with a fan translation of the whole game and a translated box under the local titles La Furia de Buu and La Fureur de Boo.
