river city dodge ball all-stars?!
This remake really just ought to be called A Game You Will Want to Play, So Download it for Your System of Choice Now, Dude. River City Dodge Ball All-Stars is a take on the classic Super Dodge Ball, the game that’s all about knocking your pompadoured opponents the heck out.
The graphics have been slightly upgraded for this version, but not at the cost of the game’s old school charm, which would have been a travesty. River City Dodge Ball All-Stars is designed for Windows–but it’s also available as an Xbox Live Indie title, under the much-less cool name Downtown Smash Dodgeball.
The original Super Dodge Ball is also available through the Nintendo Wii’s Virtual Console service for a mere 500 Nintendo points ($5), for all the purists out there… but if you’re a fan of Kunio-kun, you probably already knew that, and may actually be playing it right now.

I actually think they should rename it to “The Real World River City Dodge Ball All-Stars Road Rules”.
ACK! Looks so awesome. It’s a mashup of River City Ransom and Super Dodgeball!!! I think the XBOX Live version is called Downtown Smash Dodgeball because River City Ransom was released as Downtown Nekketsu Monogatari in Japan. I think Downtown Dodgeball would have been better for the Xbox release if they couldn’t get away with River City Dodgeball.
