It’s been over twenty years since River City Ransom was released. This summer, the title will finally be getting a sequel. Miracle Kidz revealed today that they are working on River City Ransom 2 for WiiWare as well as for the PC. No word yet on any localization plans, but I think we’ll see the game in North America and Europe eventually.

Resident Evil: The Mercenaries 3D screenshots

Posted on 13 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, Screenshots | 0 comments

The screenshots above show Jill and Wesker in action for the first time. Mercenaries 3D really does look quite good – Capcom have been using their Mobile MT Framework engine to pull off some impressive graphics on the 3DS.

Be sure to check out the latest trailer of the title here.
