Digimon Rumble Arena 2 has some of the worst balancing and jankiest, weirdest stages you may ever see in your life, but keep an open mind and that can be half the fun.
This game's existence boggles my mind, however, as i do not understand how it all became the way it is. Leaning very hard into the Adventure cast and only having like one Digimon from each other part, the roster and stage selection feel very haphazard. Neemon did not need to be a character, let alone a boss character. Even more strange, if you are able to examine the disc's contents, it literally has a second build of the game hidden on it with a completely different prototype roster and stages, with a completely different HUD. There is some weird untold story regarding this game's development and one day I want to hear why it ended up this way, but even as it is it's one of the most.... fascinating local multiplayer experiences you'll get to have.
