I’m still trying to find a balance between sticking in that original game’s look and trying more unique things like RCR:U did. I'm not sure if it or the arcade version of 2 is better.Beating River City Ransom: Underground this week kept me in the mood for spriting more characters in the original NES game’s style. I think it very clearly has the best mechanics in the series but its enemy variety and encounter design are lacking, which make it feel slightly repetitive. Doesn't nail anything that was good about the original games at all and is weighed down by lame stat progression and move unlocking gunk which really just never adds anything to the genre.Īdvance is great overall. It has amazing sprites and animation, but it's dull, overlong, and very repetitive - weird given how taut the first two arcade games are. The NES game is pretty excellent too, though not as good as the arcade game - again, it's too simplified in comparison. It's not Final Fight-tier but it is a great brawler, with its only real weak spot being the overtuned boss rush at the end of the game.
It feels like a properly-realized version of the first game (and it is basically just an expansion, even using a bunch of the first game's environments) that actually lives up to what that game's combat was promising. The NES game is overall an improvement, but it does simplify the arcade game's combat in some unfortunate ways and has some awkward elements of its own.Ģ is great. The slowdown is awful, the final stage's random traps are shit, the general combat is mediocre because you're either cheesing everything with the unchallengeable elbow or barely poking enemies out with your weak, stubby moveset.
