If you’re diving back into the world of Game Boy Advance emulation, Dragon Ball Z: Legacy of Goku 2 is a must-play. Released in 2003, this action RPG lets you play as Gohan, Piccolo, Vegeta, Trunks, and Goku through the Android and Cell sagas, complete with level-ups, transformations, and gear upgrades. It’s one of the most beloved DBZ handheld titles, with over 5 million downloads across ROM sites and consistent 4.5+ star user ratings.

The ROM runs smoothly on most GBA emulators (like mGBA or VisualBoyAdvance), but some players report lag or audio glitches, especially on mobile. To fix that, try enabling frame skip, lowering audio sample rates, or switching to a more optimized emulator. Also, look for pre-patched ROMs with fan-made bug fixes and quality-of-life tweaks.

This title still holds up thanks to its non-linear overworld exploration, side quests, and satisfying combat mechanics. Whether you’re playing for nostalgia or discovering it fresh, there’s tons of value here.

Curious—what emulator setups or patches have worked best for you when playing Legacy of Goku 2? Any mods or enhancements you’d recommend for new players?

The Buu’s Fury combat polish was better, but LOG2 had soul. And better side quests.

Can we talk about that OST? The Gohan training theme still lives rent-free in my head.

Still shocked how good the overworld exploration was. DBZ RPGs rarely let you just wander around like that.

For anyone stuck with laggy audio, go into emulator sound settings and reduce sample rate to 22050Hz. Not perfect, but way smoother on low-end devices.

This game gave me more serotonin than some AAA titles. 😂 Farming stat capsules was life.

I had trouble with the save state not working on RetroArch. Turns out I needed to set the core to mGBA instead of VBA-M. Rookie mistake. 😅 Anyone else have save corruption?

Did anyone else notice that Trunks is slightly OP compared to the others in early game? His charge and melee combo wrecks everything. I found it super fun grinding with him in the Northern Wastelands area—easy XP. Also, fun fact: The fan-made patch on Romhacking.net improves sprite clarity and adds a difficulty toggle. Highly recommend!
