* CutAndPasteNote: In the game's box art and title screen, the word "Ransom" looks as if it's been composed of cut-out letters -- like in a ransom note.

While not the most well-known game on the UsefulNotes/NintendoEntertainmentSystem, it was well-received by those who did play it. It offered several different ways to customize your character, was one of the earliest games to blend RPG elements into another genre in a successful fashion, and was noted for its humor in many spots.

A remake, ''River City Ransom EX'', came out in 2004 for the UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance, which added more moves, more gangs, more weapons, more characters (some of them from later ''Downtown Nekketsu'' games), and the option to have up to three allies fighting alongside you. However, it lacked a proper 2-player co-op mode and while the English version featured an Americanized script like its NES counterpart, the characters were still drawn with their Japanese school uniforms.

* TrueCompanions: A feature added to the UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance version, defeated bosses could follow you around and fight on your side. Most of the time it required a high reputation (an invisible stat the game keeps track) but sometimes it required talking to certain characters or choosing not to play with both Alex and Ryan. The best examples are the Zombies and the Generic Dudes, because none of them really wanted to work for Slick or Thor.

* SpiritualSequel: ''[[VideoGame/ScottPilgrim Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game]]'' paid so much homage to the original game that it could be considered a spiritual sequel.
