Oh yeah, River City Ransom EX screens and movie are at the site, too. Not too familiar with the series, though. :(
Glad to see Kunio and co. actually keep their school uniforms now.. hopefully they'll keep his name "Kunio" this time around.
i am very excited to see the school uniforms. it'll be a nice change for those of us who have only seen the Americanized version. however, i will be renaming my character to Alex. or Moose
EDIT:
EddyT, if you love Double Dragon as much as it seems, you should strive your hardest to pick up River City Ransom. it'll be like you died and went to heaven. then while in heaven, you found a trash can and you threw it at one of the angels. then, a couple more come from around the corner, wielding chains and sticks. so you jumpkick the angel with the chain, and you use his chain to beat the angel with the stick senselessly. you'll take their money and continue journeying through the clouds until you come across a store that sells sushi, or magazines, or magazines featuring sushi, and you'll purchase three of each. your journey will end when you arrive at the old high school. there, you'll get to hang out with your girlfriend and maybe go to the mall

I plan to get RCR EX as well. Never got the opportunity to play the original... I don't know why. I'm dumb for missing out on a fun-looking game. Do you think this is a remake or an actual sequel? If it plays like DD, I'll totally be into this game, too.
EBGames sez that DD Advance comes mid-November and RCR EX comes late January. It's not like I'm already hooked on Atlus games either... I'm currently obsessed with Tactics Ogre on GBA.
Yeah, I remember being all into Double Dragon when I was just a kid. I think the music and the settings of the stages did it for me, not to mention quite possibly the beefiest punch and kick sound effects I've ever experienced. I didn't really bag on the slowdown of the games at the time it came out, but playing the arcade game now at a bookshop my friend works at... it's really hard to play with it moving like molasses.
I had an argument with a friend that Double Dragon could have been in the same level as classic SSBEM (side scroll beat em up)Final Fight if it was on better hardware w/o all the slowdown... especially the first game. I honestly think I will have a much more fun time playing DD on GBA than FF, mainly because I grooved more with DD's methods of attacks than FF.
Heh heh. Now, all we need is a good Streets of Rage followup or remake on GBA and the pocket SSBEM nirvana will be complete for me. As long as it's not in the lines of that Revenge of Shinobi GBA game. *bleah*
