River City Basketball and River City Fighting Legend - for the first time available outside of Japan on your NES! Get both games in one collectors bundle.
This is a preorder, that runs from September 16th to October 26nd (we extended the period!) 2025. As usual with RetroBit releases, they will produce enough units to fulfill all preorders, but no additional production runs will be made. So while some copies will be available on release, these will be limited. So to make sure you receive a copy of the game, the best way is to place a preorder.
The game is planned to ship Q1 / 2026.

Get ready for hot-blooded action!
For the first time outside of Japan, physical cartridges for River City Basketball and River City Fighting Legend are being released in the River City Ball & Brawl Bundle.
Featuring Kunio and his friends, these Technōs Japan classics get a whole new translation in their first official Western physical release. The competition heats up in River City Fighting Legend as Kunio enters a 2v2 fighting tournament to prove his worth against various combatants. Then you enter the world of streetball in River City Basketball with Kunio and friends teaming up to play a tournament against teams across the United States. You can also invite friends for co-op or versus multiplayer action.
