Want to revel in '80s-themed glory? Play Double Dragon Neon

GamesRadar - What other beat-'em-up has your character jamming out to air guitar riffs at the end of each level? None I know of, besides Double Dragon Neon. This nostalgic brawler is merely a download away, and with a cheap price of admission, it's easy to play right now. And you should do so immediately, because it's one of the most stylish, difficult, and delightfully goofy games out there. If you can't surrender yourself to its gaudy, straightforward fun, then darn it, I feel sorry for you.

Wish someone would do a rerelease of BattleToads and Lost Vikings I would play those titles again.

Man, those two games were simply splendid. I would easily pay a good amount to play those two again in HD.

I'm still waiting on online co-op.

Excellent game, they need to keep this going with a sequel. Maybe shift it to the 90's or something.

We need more side scrollers like this, Scott pvtw was great too.

Got it when it was on psn plus for free.
It is pretty decent and the art style is quite gorgeous.

I personally thought the game sucked, I was completely disappointed with it as is the case with almost everything "WayForward" creates. You can imagine it is with bated breath that I wait for the "Ducktales" remake to be released.

Have to say I agree, the game was poor at best. It may have looked nice but gameplay wise, it sucked. Same thing can be said of the Turtles in Time remake, what a joke that was.

The GBA release got it right years ago:

This gameplay with Neon's art style would have been a fitting tribute.

Best Buy Opens Preorders for Limited Run Switch Games: TMNT, Double Dragon, and More

"Digital games are more convenient than physical games, and usually cheaper too. Still, there's something about collecting physical games that appeals to many gamers. Preordering limited physical editions directly from boutique labels is always an option, but sometimes retailers offer the same editions for a better price. That's certainly the case with Best Buy, which currently has 14 Nintendo Switch titles from Limited Run up for preorder, including TMNT: Shredder's Revenge, Double Dragon Neon, and several more co-op hits," says Co-Optimus.

The original Double Dragon from the Arcades about 30 odd years ago was amazing at the time, i played Double Dragon Neon not long ago and it had totally lost all of its appeal, its either Double Dragon isnt that good anymore or Neon is a crap representative of the original..
