Fighting outside the Game Center in Renegade 3DS. It’s killing me that you this is just the background for your battle against this oversized sprite, and you can’t actually head into the arcade to see what games are in there. Remember how you could buy Techno Belts and R&B CDs in River City Ransom? I want an arcade equivalent here.

Here’s another newly unveiled video for the Renegade remake’s Mission Mode, in which you get to fight the dudes from Super Dodge Ball at a shopping mall.

If we lived in Eric World — a dystopian alternate Earth where survivors live in fear of their careless dictator’s appetite for strange and unreasonable video games — we’d have an amalgamation of all the Kunio titles.

You’d get to play for Nekketsu High School’s various sports teams, search the neighborhood for your rivals and beat them up, ride motorcycles around town, then hit the Game Center to play the arcade version of Kunio no Oden.

Hitting the batting cages in Renegade 3DS. It’s great that Million is packing fun little experiences like this into the remake, but I still think this game is going to have a hard time selling copies when it releases to Japan in a month, even with the reduced ¥4,410 pricing (games typically sell for ¥4,800 to ¥6,090 there).

Again, I’m wishing on a star here that this will sell enough to make a River City Ransom remake with this kind of treatment happen and release to the States.

Two minutes of Renegade 3DS gameplay. I know most previews for this import-only 3DS game are mixed, to say the least, but you’ll want to watch this anyway just to hear that remix of River City Ransom’s shop music again.

While I expect hardly anyone will buy this in Japan, I’m crossing my fingers that sales will meet expectations and Arc System Works will greenlight a similar remake for River City Ransom — I’d love to see this motorcycle sequence brought into that potential game.

Four-player Battle Royale in Renegade 3DS. How did that guy in the brown suit get a pistol? Why is he holding it with a side grip? No wonder he can’t hit anything here!

I wish using that bicycle allowed you to ride around the stage, running over fools, but no, all you can do is pick it up and wield it as a weapon. Who hits people with a bike? If anything, you’re more likely to hurt yourself when the spokes jam into your fingers. Know what I mean? That is some bullshit. I’ll stick with the soccer ball, or, you know, stay strapped with the automatic handgun.
