The original Super Butoden 2 was a well-received Super Nintendo game released in 1993 that features 10 playable characters, a robust story mode with various outcomes, and multiplayer. The re-release of the game still retains its ahead-of-its-time ’90s charm and is a true port, meaning it wasn’t translated. For some, this is a huge dealbreaker.
Two games for the price of one sounds like a decent deal, pre-order ethics aside. Of course, that’s only if you think this port looks worth it. Perhaps if you already wanted to pay an advance for Extreme Butoden, this addition of the Super Butoden 2 port doesn’t matter quite as much.
If you want a taste of Extreme Butoden, Bandai has a special website that serves as a fun promotional activity. The teaser is a battle arena to bet on your favorite character by Tweeting your choice, and participants have the ability to win prizes including T-shirts or the game itself.
Again, Extreme Butoden is coming October 20th to North America exclusively for the Nintendo 3DS.
