While it's still a month late of the original 4/15 tax date release, at least it's coming sooner!

Here's the box art:

Looks like there IS 2PL co operative link play! There is also a NPC that can fight with you ! Cool!

A must buy. Though I wish they would've used the RCR clothing instead of the Jp school uniforms.

Personally I'm glad they stuck with the Japanese J.D. look, since Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari was always in Japan anyway and the whole Americanized 1950's Hoodlum look which while I liked it back in the day, it doesn't make any sense at all as it's in Japan. I'm hoping they kept the names KUNIO and whatever the other guy was instead of Ryan and Alex. But WTF is up with the shitty box art? *If ATLUS is going to make us wait until MAY for the game, they need to release it with the Japanese artwork done for the PC-Engine SCD game.

Grrr.. this isn't the first time it's been pushed back.

Double Dragon Advance was the most playable Double Dragon of all time... So many moves, and easy to control, and a decent difficulty as well. :)

"To the citizens of River City: I hold your high school captive! With my gangs of students and vicious bosses roaming the streets, nobody can stop me now! Meet my demands - or else!"

Slick, the meanest, most powerful gang lord in River City, has issued this ultimatum - and the entire town is powerless in a grip of fear!

Fortunately, Alex and Ryan weren't in school the day Slick took it over. But now, their fellow students are prisoners - including Ryan's girlfriend! It's up to our two young heroes to battle their way past several dangerous city gangs, then defeat the gang lord to free the students of River City High and restore peace to the panic-stricken populace!


Features two different game modes: Story Mode (story-driven, one or two player cooperative mode); 2 player Battle Mode (Take your customized character against another player)


Buy items to increase your stats and learn powerful techniques.


Dynamic story mode allows events to take place as you progress through the game, allowing you to gather clues, make or break friendships, earn items/techniques, and much more!


Special link mode allows you to use one Game Boy Advance for actual gameplay and another to display the status screen and watch how your NPCs are doing.


Depending on the things you do when playing the story mode, or how your friend plays against you in battle mode, you can save the gameplay style and create a computer-controlled AI character. By exchanging data, you can fight against another player’s custom AI character.


Customize the game any way you want! Change your character status, techniques, background music. Save your customized data and exchange it with another person

But not that much better. :oh_no:

what a coincidence. RCR is my favorite game, and

May 25 is my birthday.

The guy on the right holding the lead pipe on the NES package looks Japanese to me :D

Broke down Lou Diamond Phillips.
