Update: Majesco appears to be completely on board with the idea.

We'd be down — Majesco Entertainment (@Majesco) August 29, 2019

Original story:

Double Dragon Neon was a bit of a treat when it popped on to PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 back in 2012. Sadly, the Wii U would never see a port, but we're sure that the talented development team at WayForward would have loved to have made this happen. The call was ultimately up to Majesco Entertainment who published the game.

In the tradition of demanding that every game ever made should be on Switch, SwitchCorps founder Joshua Michael French has made a compelling case for Double Dragon Neon to make its way over to Nintendo's portable powerhouse. Who wouldn't like to see this box art on their gaming shelf?





But definitely one I’d like to become reality...

Surely something can be arranged with @WayForward for a 2nd chance on #NintendoSwitch - Please RT - #SwitchCorps August 24, 2019

Of course, the question has been posed to WayForward prior to this and predictably they'd love to make it happen:

It would be up to the publisher & IP holders on Double Dragon Neon, but we wouldn't object! — WayForward (@WayForward) February 13, 2019

Majesco hasn't had such an easy time of it recently, however, with the company announcing in December 2016 that it was ceasing operations in the entertainment industry when the company was strangely merged with a biotech firm. However, the company is fighting back, operating independently once more, and since 2017 have re-entered the video game business.

While we wait for the lovely folks at WayForward to get approval from Majesco for a port of Double Dragon Neon, we always have River City Girls to look forward to. If this joint venture between WayForward and Arc System Works goes well, who knows - we might even see a gender-swapped version of Double Dragon landing on the Switch one day?
