Of fucking course

I wonder who the hell it is who keeps pushing for this thing to get re released so consistently

Could you imagine if they added the announcer from Pokken Tournament to Urban Champion? Now that would be something worth purchasing again.

Are Hamster stopping their Neo Geo series to release the Nintendo Arcade series instead? Cos no Neo Geo game this week.

I want Retro to develop a new Urban Champion. Just to the hear the cries of despair from humanity as the final seal is broken and the end times can begin...
 
For some bizarre reason this announcement makes me want Sega to license Bonanza Bros to Hamster for release on Switch.

Would actually be interested in Urban Champion as an amusing-but-bad game to play in local multiplayer tabletop mode...

Just you wait GAF, a 2nd Party dev will take Urban Champion and turn it into the seedy bar brawler we deserve!

I am so weirdly happy that I am a huge Nintendo nut but have absolutely no clue what Urban Champion is and have never seen it. All I know is everyone hates it.

I'm a 32 year old man playing Nintendo games since I can remember and this is the first time I've heard of Urban Champion 🤷*♀️
 
Are they secretly replacing this to Virtual Console? So no more Virtual Console confirmed?

Considering this is made by HAMSTER, experts in porting arcade video games to consoles, and not Nintendo themselves, I would say no. It's even under the Arcade Archives banner. It just means these particular arcade ports are Nintendo exclusive and not part of HAMSTER's multiplat releases.

Urban Champion is one of the worst games ever made. A real turd that it's mind blowing that Nintendo sees fit to release in 2017.
