Data East fans rejoice because Flying Tiger is bringing yet another unmissable classic to Nintendo Switch - 1991's Two Crude Dudes! It's coming to the eShop next week on 5th July in North America, although retro fans in Europe will have to wait a little longer for a solid release date.
Know as Crude Buster in Japan, this spiritual apocalyptic sequel to Bad Dudes is equal parts beat-'em-up and grab-'em-up, with neither enemies or the environment safe from a good grapple. And if all else fails, just grab the other player and use him as a impromptu throwing weapon. If you were lucky you might have stumbled onto the excellent Sega Mega Drive conversion back in 1992.
This Johnny Turbo release will set you back $6.99. Will you be grabbing these dudes next week?

Love the sprite art, and great use of colour too.
What a game! This along with Sonic 2, Streets of Rage 2 and Forgotten World's were literally my 90s. So glad it's being ported to the switch. Now to wait for the European version..... -.-
Had this on the mega drive back in the day. So weird seeing it now. I remember dj boy as well.
I’ve played this once, back on the Sega Genesis. I’ll probably get this with the other Data East games I have.
Dude, where are my Data East classics in Europe? T_T
There are more JT unreleased games in Europe than released already.
Totally bodacious game. Makes me want to Kriss Kross my clothes and chug Crystal Pepsi. Not if, but when for me.
This is the very first game I ever played on the Sega Megadrive, forgot about it until I saw this article, can't wait!
Have they stopped releasing games in the EU?
Hopefully they’ve fixed the image filtering problem and maybe added button options! These people are truly sick... they say they are passionate about retro but make vaseline screen the ‘None’ option? Terrible.
I really hope the guy who was the the original inspiration behind Johnny Turbo is getting some kind of residuals or at least free games.
@DrJiggle The guy who created Johnny Turbo (ex TurboGrafx developer Jonathan Brandstetter) is apparently one of the people running Flying Tiger Entertainment, the company that is making all of these Johnny Tubo's Arcade titles.
Wow I remember this game! May have to pick up my first Johnny Turbo game when this drops
This is on the Data East collection. Fun brawler.
What about Midnight Resistance???!!
