Super Double Dragon came to North America way back in 1992. However, Japan received a notably different version under the name Return of Double Dragon. That title is now finally making its way stateside.
Return of Double Dragon is launching in North America on July 19. It features new moves, some extra stages, an updated soundtrack, and drop-in co-op play.
Amazon is taking pre-orders for Return of Double Dragon here. The first-print run will include a limited edition red cartridge.

The release of My Girlfriend is a Mermaid!? on Switch in the west may not be as certain as originally thought. Sekai Project has opened a Kickstarter, with the goal set at $12,000. It’ll have a month to reach that target.
My Girlfriend is a Mermaid!? is already confirmed for Switch in Japan, courtesy of Cosen. Sekai Project, who would publish the visual novel in the west, says it needs a sign of fans’ support to show that there’s interest in the west.
On the bright side, My Girlfriend is a Mermaid!? is already off to a fast start. A little over a third of the target goal has been raised thus far. You can contribute here.
