Downtown series creators to announce new action game at Comic Market
Doujin circles Miracle Kidz and Downtown7 will be releasing a Kunio dodgeball game for the PC and will be announcing a new action game at Comic Market. What makes this so special is that Yoshimitsu Yoshida and Mokeke Sekimoto, the original creators of the Famicom version of the Downtown series, are involved.
The list of stuff they will be selling at Comic Market is as follows:
- a Kunio dodgeball game for the PC
- an extra data and omake CD for the game
- a book on the official settings for downtown
- a book on the official settings for baseball monogatari
- the baseball monogatari soundtrack
- a official settings illustrations book
They also plan to sell the games online at a later time.
The dodgeball game that they are releasing for the PC is different from the other Kunio dodgeball game that is being released on the DS by Arc System Works.
Downtown nekketsu monogatari was also known as River City Ransom in the US.

So it’s like Broken Thunder, but with less failure?

Man, I loved River City Ransom; you can’t beat those designs. I have to track down that ROM and then this game.

A new Kunio game?! Now THAT is noteworthy. I still think it’s a crying shame that Kunio games typically get shredded by crappy localization when they do come out in the U.S.; most gamers have no idea any of them are related. - ZM
