Well … never thought I’d be typing this, butRiver City Ransom 2is coming to PC and home consoles. The console version will hit Japan this year, with an online PC version arriving in 2012.
Releasing asDowntown Nekketsu Monogatari 2in Japan, there are not yet details on a Western release or …anything, really. All we know is that it’s an official followup to the cult 1989 Famicom game.
The original game wasn’t a huge success in the West, but it did gain a following over the years for its sense of humor and unique gameplay. It’s seen quite a few variations on multiple systems, and didalmost get a true sequelonce.
This is making retro gamers very happy despite lacking any real info, and who can blame them? Now, let us all join together in a huge collective BARF!
