Namco Bandai, You Dun Goofed (Rant)

I was working on a blog post that was praising this game for possibly bringing Dragon Ball GT back in true playable glory since Budokai Tenkaichi 3. Then, I was surprised with this punch in the face. I don't normally buy games early unless I have a decent amount of money during the time. Since I'm both currently jobless and low on money at the moment, making Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta exclusive first day DLC is a cold move. Not COOL! COLD move! I didn't worry about this in Battle of Z with SS Vegito/Bardock because I wasn't interest in that game. However, this is sales poison. This is not character like Arale and Jaco that are connected to the Dragonball Universe in some way, but can easily dismissed yet could still bring hype. This is Super Saiyan 4 Vegeta who is important to the plot of GT. This also messes up SS4 Gogeta (My Favorite Fusion) possibility in the game as well. From my experience with Network beta, I believe game has potential. In adddition, the other bonuses look amazing. However, my hype for this game lowered a bit because I'm fearing that this could get to EA/Capcom tier dissatisfaction if Namco Bandai don't be careful about handling their merchandise in the future. If they do read this, please either rework SS4 Vegeta in the full game or give him out for free at some point down the line. It would help many people including me that have reasons to be on unable to get the game first day. Thank you.
