Anyone particularly notable I'm missing? Also, this may seem a large roster, but it's probably smaller than the BT 3 one.
You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!There's no source for it, but the wiki says:
It is stated an issue of Weekly Shonen Jump explains Cooler does not need to use lower forms like Frieza's first three forms because Cooler can fully control his power in his true form [sic]
Let's see, add Devilman, Demon King Piccolo, Kami and Mr Popo. I assume Cui is Kiwi; if not, Kiwi. SSJ(1/2/3) Nappa, Radditz, Bardock and Turbles. Prillan (Krillin/Piccolo fusion). Pilaf (Armored). Cooler (1st/2nd/3rd form). There's more I'm sure.

Well really, that's kinda the BT 3 cast with the additions from Raging Blast 2. I don't think it's possible or necessary to add more characters than the norm nowadays anyway.
Yup. The whole game is a bit clunky.
ALL of the Kais. Old Kai. Female Kai. Fat Kai. Buff Kai. Young Kai. King Kai. Other Kais.
Also that girl from Dr. Slump.
Also that devil kid from Sandland.
One that focuses less on roster size and more on balance would be good for Dragon Ball only.
Also, worth noting that in my inclusions, Uub is his GT self if only because it would feel sorta silly to use Z-era Uub. And "Baby Vegeta" is in his final non-monkey form.
You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!If they fleshed out their character creator, they could do a lot.
Aside from gender, the number of races could be extensive.
Human, Android, Namekian, Saiyan, Freiza's race, Kais, fusions and monstrous creatures.
Monstrous creatures would be the most limited, but would have the radical things like all the horns and weird body structures.
Human, Namekian, Android, and Saiyan are the ones that should be focused on first. Frieza race could be cool (And even have significant transformations), and maybe just one "alien" race that allows for the miscellaneous humanoid aliens such as Zarbon, Pikkon, the Ginyu Force, ect.
You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!Oh fan wikis.
I was gonna link to Zarboria, but just read this one.
For the record, that should be Knuth's Up-Arrow Notation.

The Kais seem like a simple enough template to add that on...
That's what I meant by the monstrous race thing too. On category to account for all the Kiwis and Ginyus and what have you. After all, what's the point of having a super powerful homebrew villain if he doesn't have a pretty henchman, a stupid henchman and a henchman with weird powers?
I agree that the most focus should go on the humans and saiyans.
Though many of those resources could be re-used for androids, namekians and kais.
Freiza's race and other aliens would be the biggest departure by far, but those are more for novelty than anything else.
Notable pre-Z fighters (I.E. Fighters that were still notable before the series heard the word "Saiyan")
Goku, Krillin, Roshi/Jackie Chun, Yamcha, Tien, Chiaotzu, Tao, Piccolo, Junior, Kami, Murasaki, Android Eight... I'm sure there are some I'm forgetting. I don't remember what most of the higher-ups in the Red Ribbon Army were like, for example.
I have a message from another time...Oh, if GT is included, Shadow Dragons would be cool to make.
Humans, Saiyans, and Androids would all draw from the same appearances and features (Though Androids would probably have more room for oddities), so they'd probably get the most stuff. Namekians all tend to look the same anyway, so not too much customization is needed there. Aliens would need lots of stuff, especially skintones (Though I suppose there's no real reason to forbid the other classes from unnatural skintones, plenty of games let you make cyan-skinned humans), due to not being all one race. And the Frieza race would probably have only a little customization but would have more differentiated forms to transform into (4 forms, 5 if you allow Cooler's form).
I'm only talking about appearance, mind you. Though attack-wise, I can't think of many attacks that would be strictly forbidden from other races except maybe Namekian (and possibly alien) regeneration.

You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!It's a Baby Janemba with a Majin M crudely superimposed.
Which means it's Babidi controlling Baby controlling accumulated evil energy controlling some poor Saike Demon. Yo dawg I heard you like mind control...

You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!Namekians would be pretty simple, yes. So would the kais.
Androids could have stuff like metal plating/limbs, see through bits, what have you.
Some of the biggest differences could be in the moves they have access to. Namekians could have stretchy arm attacks, while androids could have energy drain and Frieza's race could use an eye laser attack.

The voice work for Kai was pretty good, overall.
Speaking of future games, who else would like to see just flat out more characters? I mean, balance is pretty much a "to the winds" issue with them, so why not throw in even more characters. Not even just canon characters, but hypotheticals too. Word of God says Cooler had five forms, but was normally in his fourth one. Well, let's see the other three. Does Cold have more forms? Let's see those too. Hell, let's get Chilled in here. That hypothetical fusion of Dende and Goku? I wanna see it. The intended fusion with Gohan too. Stuff like that.
