Unlike the NES version, this port wasn't developed by Technos and it shows. The combat feels almost nothing like a Double Dragon game and they removed the signature hair pull attack. Buying new abilities and fighters is alright but the core combat is dissatisfying and the enemies are bland. The instruments used for the music can be grating.
