[edit] Gameplay

Similar to the Super Smash Bros. series, in Battle Stadium D.O.N the players are put onto either a moving or non-moving stage. Borrowing from Power Stone, these stages have some level of interactivity. Players must then fight their opponents. However, due to the nature of the combined health bar, which gets divided up by the players, a fight can potentially last indefinitely if no time limit is set.

[edit] Missions

The single player mode has the player fight through five rounds, two of which have missions with goals selected randomly. However, depending on the difficulty chosen by the player, different amounts of missions are given out with easy giving the least and very difficult giving out the most. Fulfilling the missions' goals rewards the player with coins that can be used in the slot machine available upon completing the fights. The slot machine is the way through which unlockables are obtained.

[edit] Multiplayer

Up to four players can participate in a multiplayer session (for the PS2 version a multitap must be used for more than 2 players).
