Son of its time, you can rarely avoid (or block) all of the attacks coming at the same time. The controls feel great tho
Briga de rua tradicional, não curti muito por ter achado repetitivo e monótono. Chute pulinho.
Easily the best Double Dragon game I've played yet. Smooth movement, the combat itself is damn fun, and the music is rockin as hell. The difficulty is honestly very well done, easy yet still somewhat challenging.
The cutscene art is also charming as hell, like a never-made Shonen manga.

Divertido pacas, ótimo pra passar uma tardezinha jogando, mas é dificil pra caramba se for jogar sozinho
A versão definitiva de Double Dragon, com várias revisões e adições que melhoram ainda mais o jogo, tornando o pacote completo um dos melhores beat'em ups que experimentei.
A movimentação pode não ser fluída como nos jogos do gênero que se seguiram, como Streets of Rage e os que a Capcom desenvolveu após Final Fight. Esse comentário pode ser um indicativo que a jogabilidade é ruim, mas não é isso o que acontece, muito pelo contrário.
O jogo oferece muitas possibilidades de ataque, com mãos nuas ou usando armas, e adicionou um mecanismo de defesa que se usado no tempo certo se torna um parry (como em Street Fighter III), acrescentando ainda mais profundidade à obra.
Os gráficos estão muito satisfatórios, com animação bem fluída e sprites muito bem feitos. O som se destaca pela trilha sonora, que é muito bem feita, e pelo som um tanto quanto caricato que os inimigos fazem ao ser derrotados e que River City Ransom onomatopizou (olha o neologismo) como "Blergh". Os demais efeitos, basicamente do som de pancadas e quedas, fazem apenas o básico.
Os únicos poréns são a duração relativamente curta do jogo e a falta de um valor de replay, coisa que outras versões e jogos anteriores da série colocaram modos como um versus básico ou uma campanha jogando com um dos inimigos, como o icônico Abobo. Ainda assim, considerando o grau do desafio, umas boas horas de entretenimento estão garantidas.
E é justamente essa garantia de entretenimento que me faz recomendar esse jogo para apreciadores do gênero e curiosos em geral.

So the only reason I played this game today was because a friend was asking me why this game was $90 nowadays. I told them maybe I should play it and see if it's any good. Didn't really have any knowledge on this game besides Atlus published it but once again I'm surprised I enjoyed a game in this series.
This is a remake of the original Arcade game which scared me because if you didn't know, I hate the original game. I didn't like it in the Arcades, I didn't like it on the Famicom, and I especially hated the unlicensed Genesis version. But this one was made by the team who worked on the Famicom Kunio games. They actually did a good job here.
This game not only adds more stages and moves from future titles but it actually fixed the awful slowdown. It feels so nice to actually play this and enjoy myself. Sure they didn't fix some stuff like the elbow smash being OP but with other moves being fun to use it doesn't really annoy me as much. If there was one gripe I had with attacks is it seems if you mash the button it'll do the attack as many times as you pressed it leading to unintentional whiffs.
This really is the best version of the game though with some faults like sadly the music is not very good due to it being on the GBA and this also means playing in 2 player is harder to setup. I would love to see this be done on a console but I doubt that would ever happen nowadays. There's even a new survival mode where you take down as many enemies as you can, I think it goes as high as 137.
If you've never played this game you might need to give the game a try if you ever enjoyed the series. It was a pleasant surprise. This is a pretty high contender for being the best though the only other game I've enjoyed in the series was II on the Famicom so make that what you will. Certainly one of the lesser known GBA games that's worth a look.
