Siliconera: The very first Kunio-kun game, better known as Renegade outside of Japan, is being remade for Nintendo 3DS. While Hot-blooded Tough Guy Kunio-kun Special makes use of the hardware’s glasses-free 3D screen, the characters are 2D sprites. The backgrounds are 3D models, which gives Kunio-kun a paper cutout feel to it. You see in to the world as if you were staring into a bancho diorama.

Well, you're in luck if you are as today we see a smattering of old, new, titles arrive on Xbox One with ARC SYSTEM WORKS porting over some NES classics for the modern day gamer to enjoy. And yep, it's Double Dragon that steals the show."
Double Dragon 1-3, River City Ransom, Renegade, Super Dodge Ball? Omg I played the living daylights outta these! Shoot, nice adds!
Hopefully there will be an option to turn off those stupid side borders. Great line up never played the NES version of Double Dragon I only own the SMS version.
Thought this was going to be Nintendo returning the favour to Microsoft for their exclusives.
Why is the final boss of Double Dragon the only character in the game with a gun? There is an entire gang running the streets with baseball bats, dynamite, giant rocks etc. But none of them carry guns. They will kill you throwing giant rocks at you
The beat 'em up genre has been around for decades so let's see where it all began. Renegade (AKA Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-kun) introduced gamers to street brawling way back in 1986 but does it hold up more than 30 years later?
