RETRODANUART.COM REVIEW -- https://retrodanuart.com/arcade/double-dragon/
One of the most mythical and representative fighting games of the genre. It has all the ingredients to succeed: Variety of moves, charismatic characters and the possibility of 2 simultaneously players. Its technical implementation was too demanding for the board it ran on, so it suffered from constant slowdowns. Thanks to the emulator's overclock function, we can eliminate them and enjoy the game in all its splendor. Something that surely will not please all audiences.
Were you one of those who only used the elbow strike in Double Dragon, or did you have a more varied range of attacks?
