[edit] Story
A fledgling television program has been suffering from poor audience approval, and the station that carries the show has informed its producers that they will have to rectify the situation or face inevitable cancellation.
An unorthodox plan is implemented: broadcast a contest pitting various superstars from different realities in physical combat in order to increase ratings.
[edit] Roster
Up to four gamers can choose from seventeen playable characters, each with their own themed backdrop, from video game and toy series such as Castlevania, Metal Gear, Gradius, Bomberman, Adventure Island, Bloody Roar, Transformers, Beyblade, and Micronauts.

[edit] Trivia
- DreamMix TV World Fighters is Solid Snake's first crossover fighting game appearance—his second will be in Super Smash Bros. Brawl for the Nintendo Wii video game console.
- Mujoe (known as "Mister Meanie" in the U.S. manual for Saturn Bomberman) appears in this game as both a co-host and the final boss. In addition, several bandits from the Hige-Hige Gang cameo in the cut-scene before the last fight as Mujoe's support crew.
