What no double dragon 5? I needs my trash tier fighting game... especially the jag version because its missing 4 characters

Joking aside double dragon advance is awesome good to see it finally available

 

[Lord Malachite]

Didn't we already get a lot of these games bundled in with the Double Dragon + Kunio-kun Collection?

 

[Punished Miku]

Having access to Super DD is pretty nice. Tempting for sure. If this had the GBA one also it would be day 1.

Was there a physical for this one? Also I think that's Switch only.

Yes.

This is what I was thinking. It was a great collection too.

 

[Boss Mog]

Looks like the NES versions and not the arcade versions, who the fuck is gonna buy that?

The only Double Dragon i remember playing was on Amiga (DD1 or 2, can't remember) I guess those versions aren't included?

I only ever played the NES versions since my cousin had the whole set and the arcades versions were not available where I lived. I picked them up on Switch as soon as they were originally released.
For me, it's pure nostalgia for the NES versions since it reminds me of my childhood.

 

[kunonabi]

Sucks that the iPhone and pc engine games are missing but advance is certainly worth it by itself. I wonder if it's going to be just Super or if they'll have Return of Double Dragon as well.

You only got Double Dragon 1-3 from the collection. Here, you get 1-4, Advance and Super Double Dragon.

Which is why it would've been nice if DD 1-3 arcade were in this version.

Also, the physical release is Asia release only, which is a shame.

 

[DosGamer]

I love the idea of the collection, but in this day and age.... there is absolutely no reason the superior ARCADE versions should not be included. Those games were my go to as a kid in the arcade. Replicating that instead of the subpar NES games is a crime to be honest and a weak attempt at a money grab.

 

[daffyduck]

You can get those as digital on various platforms, but yes, they should have been on this physical collection, especially since the LRG Kunio kun edition already has the first 3 NES versions.

 

[ReBurn]

If it's reasonably priced I'll pick up a Switch cart. Most of these collections are stupidly overpriced.

 

[Omnipunctual Godot]

It would be awesome if they were somehow able to fix the slowdown in Super Double Dragon. Not holding my breath, though.

 

[Ulysses 31]

Should've included Return of Double Dragon which is the JPN version of Super Double Dragon that has some small improvements.

 

[daffyduck]

Yes, but in this case, the original DD advance and Super DD carts are ridiculously priced.

 

[Ulysses 31]

If you have a Super NT you can play the PAL Super Double Dragon in NTSC mode so it's running about 20% faster.

Nice! My Super NT just came in a couple of weeks ago.

Hamster has the rights for the arcade versions. They're on PS4 as Arcade Archives releases.

How is Castlevania Collection $20 and this is over double the price

Because it has six games in the bundle.

nes version of 3 is miles better than the paid dlc, yes that's right you had to buy characters and weapons, arcade version
plus dd1 and 2 for the nes are really well remembered, but it should be the arcade 1 ,2 and ugh 3, nes 1 2 and 3, master system 1, 4 plus the technos developed fighter (but that's tied to the movie, remember that?) as it's ooookay as opposed to the train wreck of double dragon 5 (which is based on the saturday morning cartoon, remember that?),
too bad ms couldn't work out battletoads double dragon as an xbox exclusive or something as its not a bad game
advance is the real draw here though, it's the best double dragon game and previous locked to gba

 

[TLZ]

Was just thinking about this yesterday in bed. What sorcery is this?

 

[93xfan]

Because it has six games in the bundle.

Castlevania Collection has 4 NES, 1 SNES, 1 Genesis, 2 Gameboy games

Checkmate.

 

[SALMORE]

i hate when they say " a collection " and then they add 4 or 5 games

why not add the arcade versions , genesis , gameboy etc

 

[daffyduck]

Hamster has the rights for the arcade versions. They're on PS4 as Arcade Archives releases.

For digital distribution, at least. It hasn't stopped the IP holders from doing physical releases of games included in Arcade Archives.

 

[KiteGr]

I'm more interested in the Kunio collection, but limited run hasn't released a ps4-5 version of it.

Playasia has got your back on this one.

Edit:

This link gives you an English version of the cover and is one whole whopping dollar less.

Box cover according to play-asia.

Asia version

US/EU version

 

[RoboFu]

More like Double Dip-on : Legend of the Milkage

 

[Ulysses 31]

To my pleasant surprise, Return of Double Dragon is included with the eShop Super Double Dragon release!

You can speed up the games up to 2x too!
