Double Dragon Neon Gets a Release Date

Insert your own 80’s reference here

Written by litepink on 18 July 12 at 20:55

Billy and Jimmy return in a series reboot of Double Dragon, coming from Majesco and WayForward Technologies.

After the dust has settled following the Summer of Arcade on Xbox LIVE Arcade we can rewind to the 80’s with Double Dragon Neon. The game will arrive September 12th for the competitive price of 800 MSP.

Sold. Double Dragon needed a comeback and this looks great. I've been anticipating the release date all week and I have high-hopes. I don't understand why some don't care for the visuals. It looks sweet with the 80's neon-throwback. It's not like the shitty-looking Double Dragon: Wander of the Dragons. That looks like it's going to be dull and slow. I've been completing the original in preparation. Anyone want to help me with the last achievement?

Double Dragon did not need a comeback. It was awesome back in the day, and it should have been left alone. If they wanted to bring it back, they should have brought it back like Mega Man, all 8-bit style.

I just love Double Dragon so much I wanted to see it returned to its former glory. People used to love the hell out of Double Dragon with ports and sequels up the ass, an animated series and a feature film. I just wish it was as big as it once was. At least it has its legacy and us old school fans.

I want to see it come back so badly, but this may not have been the best way. We'll see, but Retro City Rampage looks way better than this.
