WHO REMEMBERS THESE GANGS ON RIVER CITY RANSOM

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

River City Ransom Gangs
GENERIC DUDES
Known as the Bombers of Senridai High in Japan, the weakest gang in River City. Ryan is disliked by Generic Dudes and will attract their attention. In River City Ransom EX, their leader is known as Sonokawa (Conan in the US version), who under certain circumstances can be persuaded to fight alongside Alex or Ryan, along with other Generic Dudes. Their colors are cyan.
ENTREES
This cooking-themed gang usually brings ladders, buckets, and poles to the fight. A punch or two will send them running, but as their gold-colored uniforms suggest, they give a lot of money if they are defeated. Only in RCR EX.
FRAT BOYS
The Frat Boys are a group of stereotypical bullies. They're usually cowards when unarmed but attack mercilessly when they're equipped. Their uniforms are pink. In Japan, they go to Sakajuku Commercial High.
DRAGONS
A gang that likes to throw rocks. They wear light orange uniforms, and usually have Japanese names. They are only in RCR EX.
JOCKS
The Jocks are the other group of stereotypical bullies obsessed with sports, constantly using metaphors as they fight. They wear lime uniforms. In Japan, they go to Numaoka Industrial High. Alex is disliked by The Jocks and will attract their attention.
HOME BOYS
Home Boys are made to be slow, but with a lot of punching power. They wear yellow uniforms. In River City Ransom EX, their names are changed to reference those of various rappers, and will often say "Biz-Arf" rather than the infamous "Barf!" when defeated. They're members of Hoshikusa Agricultural High in Japan.
MOB
The Mob are tough enforcer-types who work around the warehouse district. Their leader is Rocko, and his subordinate is Moose. Their names are meant to evoke gangster imagery, and they use taunts like "You talkin' to me?, or "Sleeping with the fishes". They wear gray uniforms. In River City Ransom EX, they favor using tires as weapons. In Japan, they're called the Hakutaka Gang.
EAGLES
The Eagles are known for carrying long chains into combat. Their color is medium green. Only found in RCR EX.
ROCKERS
These heavy metal fans are in RCR EX only and wear burgundy uniforms.
REJECTS
A light-blue gang only found in RCR EX.
SQUIDS
The Squids are made to be experts in martial arts and aerial techniques. They wear maroon uniforms. They go to Matagawa Industrial High in Japan.
INTERNATIONALS
The Internationals are made as foreigners - rich foreigners, which results in them dropping the most coins - who came to River City to fight the best of the best. Each of their names have a foreign name to it. Their leader is Tsuyoshi Gouda (Ivan) and wear green uniforms. In Japan, they're students at Houryou High.
COWBOYS
The Cowboys are made as dangerous "good-ol'-boys" who love to fight. They wear blue uniforms and have Western-style names. Their leader is Suzumu Godai (Tex). They make up the Tanibana Gang.
GAMERS
A gang found only in the RCR EX. This dark-red gang tends to carry a lot of odd weapons.
Three members of the Gamers are named after the main characters of Disgaea: Hour of Darkness: Laharl, Etna, and Flonne. Two others, Meis and Muza, are named after protagonists from Thousand Arms, which was also published by Atlus.
PLAGUE
The Plague are the toughest lower-tier gang in River City and love to attack with lead pipes. They wear red uniforms, the color of Reihou Academy in Japan.
LOCALS
A dark orange-colored gang nearly as tough as the Plague. Prefer jump-kicks. Only in RCR EX.
ZOMBIES
Better known as the Four Heavenly Kings, the Zombies make up the toughest of all gangs. Their leader is Masao Kobayashi (Thor) and his strongest lieutenants are Shun Mochizuki (Turk), Kiyofumi Taira (Mojo) and Tadashi Kinoshita (Blade). They take direct orders from Taiki Yamada (Slick). They wear red uniforms.

river city ransom and super dodgeball are my fav nintendo games ever, and i always wanted the sequels but couldnt find them

they made a animated movie out of river city ransom too. i have the cd somewhere

super dodgeball had a sequel for the famicom (japanese nintendo) and it was like robots playing dodgeball

i used to beat the SHIT out of people with the lead pipe in rcr

who knew about that secret store in that dark screen? it was at the top wall...if you pressed up while running against the wall youd fall into it

it had weird shit like wizard wands and etc etc it was the most expensive shop
