Re: Double Dragon Mugen help

Well, I’m a huge DD fan. I would wager that most on the Dojo forums are, even if they’ve gone quiet, of late. The “Jick” issue also came up in this thread (towards the bottom of page 2). I’m still waiting for somebody to definitively confirm/deny it. As far as I can tell, the bald miniboss and the g...

Re: Double Dragon Gamegear?

The Dojo has a review of it, here. The short version is, it's pretty rubbish. I will say that I quite liked Billy Lee's new character design (this is the only game where we see him wear a headband), particularly the portrait from the intro, before each level. It's also an interesting idea, that you ...

Re: Clarifying the Abobo and Bolo mix-up

Great find, Seimei! And welcome to the DD Dojo forums! Unfortunately, warosu wouldn’t allow me the hotlinks directly to those images (I don’t know if anybody else had that problem), so you can find the thread at https://warosu.org/vr/thread/S3700487#p3722664 Exactly where you end up on the page seem...

Re: Clarifying the Abobo and Bolo mix-up

Thanks, I appreciate that you took the time. In the meantime, Wikipedia looks like it's already deemed "Jick" as canon. I'm pretty sure that it uses the same scan, as a reference. Until I see anything to convince me otherwise, I'm going to assume that Wikipedia is wrong (shock and horror!!...

Re: Double Dragon IV (from Arc System Works)

PD: I'm the only one who think that Jake is based on "Animal" from Dragonninja?? He certainly resembles Animal, with similar armor and mohawk. But I think it's more likely that the reference is to what originally inspired Animal: The Road Warrior-look, from Mad Max and from one of Double ...

Re: Double Dragon IV (from Arc System Works)

Overall, I'm less than impressed with this one. you cant expect too much from a 7 dollar game i guess. That pretty much covers it, but seriously, for the 30th anniversary, I expected better. I will say that I did like [SPOILER ALERT] the inclusion of Sonny and DD1 Jimmy. Those were mark-out moments,...

Re: Clarifying the Abobo and Bolo mix-up

Okay, so it's five years later (!) and DD IV came out, a couple of days ago. I was having a look at the Double Dragon wikia, which seems to finally, FINALLY clarify the issue that started all this, in the first place. I've never been able to confirm the name of the black mohawked head swap of Abobo ...

Re: What Was The Point Of The 1993 Cartoon/Toy/Game?

You raise some good points, there. The first time I watched the cartoon as a kid, my sister commented "This is SO Ninja Turtles!" I think the magic swords were more of an attempt to channel He-Man's success. Think about it; The heroes hold aloft their magic swords, invoke the power of (rel...

Re: What Was The Point Of The 1993 Cartoon/Toy/Game?

Okay, I know I’m re-jigging an old topic here, but I thought I’d have a crack at this one. No, the cartoon was not based on the comic series – but my theory is it was originally supposed to be. I’ve brought this up before, but look at the Yinyang-like sign of the Shadow Warriors , from the cartoon a...

Re: Another DD fangame

I like what I see! The Jeff portrait is a particular favourite of mine - what did you use, as a base? Did you do the backgrounds, yourself? In particular, I'm curious about the minotaur statues, in stage 4. Are those from the Master System? All in all, it looks like you put in a lot of effort, and i...
