If you were playing games of any sort in the late eighties you will remember Double Dragon. The many releases and sequels are proof of the games success both in arcades and on consoles. Double Dragon deserves a retro rewind mention for the co-op play that inspired many subsequent games including Final Fight, The TMNT Arcade game etc.

Double Dragon is a 1987 beat-em-up developed by Technos Japan Corporation and distributed in North America and Europe by Taito. The game is a spiritual and technological successor to Technos’ earlier beat-em-up, Renegade (released in Japan as Nekketsu KÅha Kunio-kun, the first game in the Kunio-kun series), but introduced several additions such as two-player cooperative gameplay (hence the title) and the ability to arm oneself with an enemy’s weapon after disarming them. Double Dragon is considered to be one of the first successful examples of the genre, resulting in the creation of two arcade sequels and several spinoffs.

Home versions of the game were released for the Nintendo Entertainment System, Sega Master System, Atari 2600, Atari 7800, Game Boy, Genesis/Mega Drive and Atari Lynx, among other platforms during the series’ height of popularity. An enhanced remake titled Double Dragon Advance was released for the Game Boy Advance in 2004. It was re-released for the Wii’s Virtual Console in North America on April 28, 2008 at a cost of 500 Wii Points…. read more…

Forgot that this game is on XBLA for only 400 points. Double Dragon II is the best one of the series. NES not the Arcade.

I do not want Trophies, Money or not even a title saying I am number "1". You can have your cheap trophies, paper titles, and dingy headbands. I am a "STORY" to my peers, a "LEGEND" for your kids to hear, and a "FOLKLORE" to keep you from dieing with fear - [b]Calvin D. Kates aka Chauncy "TRU" Talon. [/b]
