"Double Dragon Neogeo game", but more exactly the older one... because there is a second DD fg made in the early 00s for the Neogeo called Rage of the Dragons. But only this first one is based on the movie.
This is great. I really like content with obscure fighting games from the 90s. New fighting games are obviously amazing but 90s fighting games had so much character, especially the bad ones lol
This game is more "lost in time" than obscure. I was around 14 when this game came out and would normally see and play it at the cades on MVS cabinets. But F all that, I love these types of vids, digging into the past FGs. Always enjoy it!
In this moment, JMCrofts feel the true horror playing Double Dragon and losing inclusive with the most broken character of the game (Or second most broken because Billy is busted): Abobo
Second place could be either to Marian or Abobo. Marian can put so much pressure with her excellent frame data and has an infinite but requires a lot of skill to use. On the other hand, Abobo has enormous hitboxes, insane damage, can make you dizzy with 2~3 hits and his command grab super is just stupid. Anyway, Billy is still the number 1 hands down
I actually remember playing this in the arcades. Surprisingly great fun. Also loved the touch how the character's poses changed when blocking each attack.
I can't recall if you've done it before but I recommend anyone to try "Chatan Yarakuu Shanku - the karate tournament" (an arcade title). There's technically only one character so that's good for balance but the animation is great and the battle system is fun. Direction + no button is to block, and they even have power hits. It works on a point system of hit / knockdown. Glad to see people trying stuff like double dragon, I love these old fighting games! 💙
Knowing all the stuff I know about these games now I am also so happy to see retro games like this that had the sauce. Justin can literally duo with anyone make a great video!
This is a pretty common game here since i played the actual arcade machine and own the PS1 port back then Fun fact: a lot of animations from double dragon gaiden references this game
You can feel how you want about the movie but as a fan of B movies it's actually alright... But, there are things I noticed as an adult that kid me didn't think about: 1) Robert Patrick was the drip god 2) Alyssa Milano 🤌🤌🤌 And Abobo is straight up nightmare fuel
Thought this looked familiar..a out a year ago jmcroft made a fightcade frenzy tournament video where he ran this game as a tournament for his discord. It's pretty funny. Look up Why is the double dragon fighting game SO CURSED.
What about The Karate Tournament or Battle K-Road to name just two? There are tons of more obscure fighting games than one with the popular license of Double Dragon! For NEO.GEO of all things! (I know we're being pedantic, but that's what we do on RUclips comments, fam!)
Yeah, this Double Dragon game is not very "obscure" in the fighting game circle. You want obscure, you guys should have played Toy Fighter again!!! 😁😁😁
Wait what, there was a double dragon fighting game? Is that why I remember double dragon being so different from the other game? I had an NES, SNES, and a Sega as a kid, and my parents would always take us to movie/video game rental stores when I was like 5-8 years old. And I’d always pick fighting games cus they were my favorite. And I knew this game existed!
This was a Neo-Geo game. In Mexico you would go outside and somewhere they would have at least one of their games with the volume all the way up and you could hear them blocks away. They had this one outside my school and my brothers and cousins played it after we got out, along with many others.
There are FOUR DD Fighting games: 1 This One, released in 1995, this was based the DD movie that was released in the same year 2. DD Shadow Falls: A Genesis/Megadrive and SNES Game was released in 1994, based on the DD Cartoon. These two games are slightly different to each other and are HORRIBLE!! 3. Rage Of The Dragons: Released in 2002, this is a Tag Fighter. you pick teams of two and play an elimination match. Neo Geo lost the Official license to DD just before it was released and had to make changes to avoid legal issues.
I remember reading an article about this game. It was the first time I heard of the AES and wanted this game with the console. That was until I read the AES was $650. I don't think it mentioned the actual price of the game.
Funny enough, this specific game was my first exposure to Double Dragon instead of the beat em up. Even better that this fighting game is based on the live action movie lol
This is actually not obscure... maybe to younger fg fans, american fg fans who know little of Neogeo history, etc. But ok, any opportunity to show a Neogeo fg in a fgc channel matters.
1:59 Justin did not explain this well. Every character has a double jump. all forward and back dashes have jump properties, including being able to jump cancel them.
Funny fact This double dragon gamę was do hyped herę on Poland Mamy Polish arcades Has This alongside street fighter and mortale komnat,.and This game was fairly popular. Mainly from thr fact most od US 90s kids Has NES and bootleged double dragon was among favorites
Bro Justin I definitely want to play some games wit you one day man you seem mad chill, you play Streetfighter5? is that considered a throwback yet?lol
Most obscure ? Really ? Ah ... we're talking about the U.S. arcade market ...right? That's interesting. In Latin America, Double Dragon was far from obscure and actually a very common game . I remember finding this game in many different arcades and malls in my city back in those days (I am from São Paulo, Brazil). Most SNK arcade fighting games were common in Lat.Am. , right when the U.S. arcade business was falling hard in the early 2000's
There is this old fighting game for the super Nintendo that had this one dude who was wearing green robes he kind of looked a little bit like Jesus and his attacks consisted of giant yellow hands. Does anyone by chance know what video game I'm talking about or am I just having a fever dream? Play that game Justin. Game is HELLA obscure! Edit: GGs always! I always appreciate your crossover content with other streamers. Out here booty clappin the OPPS 😂
This isn't obscure. This was very popular back in the day. It was everywhere right next to Samurai Showdown. That's the guy who loves bashing his "clicky" buttons. I used to hate that in the arcade, when guys bashed them extra hard to make them loud. Huele a farmacia. 😆😁
"Double Dragon Neogeo game", but more exactly the older one... because there is a second DD fg made in the early 00s for the Neogeo called Rage of the Dragons. But only this first one is based on the movie.
That was the Evoga game. 🤟
I cant lie, i really enjoy wen u guys collab on vids
This game plays so well, a hidden gem for sure. There's a scene for this game
This is great. I really like content with obscure fighting games from the 90s. New fighting games are obviously amazing but 90s fighting games had so much character, especially the bad ones lol
Ha I love this game. Especially when you turn into the dragons and the music changes 😅
That’s when shit gets real
I would argue there's a ton more obscure fighting games than this one!
For sure there are. Maybe the spiritual sequel “Rage of the dragons”.
Hinokakera is an option too.
@@applewind9318Hinokakera is straight kino, I'm glad people are learning about it now
I would agree
@@brenoandrade7775 Rage Of The Dragons sim pode se considerar obscuro, mas DD definitivamente não é.

I love this game. I first saw it back in the days in a real machine and i was blown away by it. Especially with the plane stage.

Y'all sleeping on Cheng-Fu, dude can get you in the corner and throw you while you're still in blockstun from his qcb kick
@@DoomsayerStudios Yep, Abobo and Cheng-Fu are the top tiers of this game, Marian is actually low tier along Eddie.
@@PAKA62so the game has low tiers that are also insane?!
I use to play this a lot back in the 90s... This game was awesome... And the movie too Justin... 😂

I played the absolute HELL out of this game as a kid. Nice to see it getting some attention.
Same here, specially since it was always present in most arcade houses or even at the neighborhood store or bar
"I think it came out after the movie"
While back at around 4:00 or so, there are movie clips on the screen in the background!😂
You guys should really try Rage of Dragons at some point. Its an homage to double dragon buts its a 2v2 tag fighter and its very underappreciated
The Movie came out in 1994!
How can you mention the Double Dragon movie and not point out that it starred Mark Dacascos, the good old "Chainman" in American Iron Chef?
Knowing all the stuff I know about these games now I am also so happy to see retro games like this that had the sauce. Justin can literally duo with anyone make a great video!
JMC has such a fun personality. Never fails to put me in a good mood. He is so excited about fighting games!
I'm subbed to both of you, so seeing you guys collab is always a good time. 👍👍👍
This game was a hit in South America.
This game was at the arcade when I was a youngling. This game looked and felt good for the time
This is a pretty common game here since i played the actual arcade machine and own the PS1 port back then
Fun fact: a lot of animations from double dragon gaiden references this game
You can feel how you want about the movie but as a fan of B movies it's actually alright...
But, there are things I noticed as an adult that kid me didn't think about:
1) Robert Patrick was the drip god
2) Alyssa Milano 🤌🤌🤌
And Abobo is straight up nightmare fuel
Get JM to play Rage of the Dragons 👀
No Justin that double dragon movie was fire it had my dog from The Only the Strong movie and Alyssa Milano looking beautiful
Battle K Road is the most obscure fighting game ever.
A series with my favorite fighting RUclipsrs?
Let's goooo!
The JMcroft and JWong combo. That's awesome! I thought JMcroft had that game in his roulette tournament thingy
I would love for this to get a re-release, but I know it is nigh impossible due to copyright issues
I think arc system works owns the rights to double dragon now right? So this could get a re release one day hopefully.
@@Perthworm_Jims_Arcade tgey could make a great fighter ifbthey wanted
Arc Sys has been releasing old skool DD games recently (DD Advance & Super DD). Maybe they'll do this one too
Thought this looked familiar..a out a year ago jmcroft made a fightcade frenzy tournament video where he ran this game as a tournament for his discord. It's pretty funny. Look up Why is the double dragon fighting game SO CURSED.
Hey Justin😊 do you played/ like the virtua fighter series? Im interested on your opinion.🙃
Time killers is a super obscure fighting game let see justin play that.
Now that is a game I haven't heard of in a long ass time
Man, I've played this A LOT in my teenage years here in Brazil. Some some reason, this game had it's time around here. Dulton kicks a... hard
I love when you collab with him! Its always fun!
8:18 it's commonly known as "Double Dragon '95" so probably 2003!! 😂
Lol Jm has no memory of doing a tournament for this game.

I remember reading an article about this game. It was the first time I heard of the AES and wanted this game with the console. That was until I read the AES was $650. I don't think it mentioned the actual price of the game.
I bought the Neo Geo CD to play this game and KOF95. Good times.
You want obscure? Look up Dragoon Might. Now THAT'S obscure.
Funny enough, this specific game was my first exposure to Double Dragon instead of the beat em up.
Even better that this fighting game is based on the live action movie lol
have him fight the hardest bosses from obscure games
The game is better than the movie that the game is based on.
This is a great game.
The double dragon fighting game we should have gotten but yeah it's cool
Great video I love the old school stuff! You two are great together.
This is actually not obscure... maybe to younger fg fans, american fg fans who know little of Neogeo history, etc. But ok, any opportunity to show a Neogeo fg in a fgc channel matters.

This game is not "Obscure", this was one of the better SF Clones
No one under 20 knows it so it's obscure
@@falconeshield no one under 20 knows Operation Wolf, that DOES NOT make it obscure!!
The Double Dragons 😹😹😁😁
There really is no other fighting game that looks, sounds, and plays like NG Double Dragon. I love it. Its a shame Tecmos only released just one.
Hi Justin, the OTG just hold down and D. GGS
Justin can be a real troll at times but Justin not recommending the Double Dragon movie to JMCrofts, I respect that!
Ok game, THE BEST cartoon series ever.
1 of the most played games on Fightcade
looks like a fun game, kind of disappointed they didn't show the guy who looks like Lord Shredder
Love it when you guys colab!
Bro Justin I definitely want to play some games wit you one day man you seem mad chill, you play Streetfighter5? is that considered a throwback yet?lol
Wow double dragon is so cool jimmy is really good and his special are so awesome we need more games like this
Thanks Justin Wong I appreciate you so much this is a really good game I wish I could play one day keep up the good work
I can’t believe the fact this game is considered OBSCURE…
"Most" is certainly an exaggeration. This game is still being played in fightcade tournaments.
Double Dragon is dope !! Awesome game
That's weird, double dragon is not obscure for me at all. I played this game many times. Great video Justin 👍🏼
Good to see jmcrofts, he's good folks.
This is definitely not the MOST OBSCURE. lol. Dinorex is definitely a lot more obscure.
Oh! Please watch the movie!!! It's a blast! Almost on par with Samurai Cop! Better than Street Fighter!
Most obscure ? Really ? Ah ... we're talking about the U.S. arcade market ...right?

"I don't recommend you watch the live action movie." I know it's old, but thanks for not letting your buddy walk into a horrible movie.
Definitely not obscure but certainly under appreciated
a great early fighting game.
There is this old fighting game for the super Nintendo that had this one dude who was wearing green robes he kind of looked a little bit like Jesus and his attacks consisted of giant yellow hands. Does anyone by chance know what video game I'm talking about or am I just having a fever dream? Play that game Justin. Game is HELLA obscure!
Edit: GGs always! I always appreciate your crossover content with other streamers. Out here booty clappin the OPPS 😂
i want to say youre talking about world heroes maybe rasputin as the character
LOVE THIS GAME... didnt get the credit it deserves it
Isn't there a double dragon fighting game based on the cartoon also?
Yes, and it us really bad
I'm surprised Double Dragon Neo Geo is considered "the MOST OBSCURE fighting game"
Yeah that’s cap. Power Instinct and Gowkaizer now that’s obscure af
@@prodbyhostileI agree
Tell your editor that he sucks at sound levelling. Really enjoy these videos of you and JMCrofts playing obscure games though
Rage of the dragons is an underrated game
This game has some insane flashing lights lol
Double Dragon time!!
wow this is actually a fun fighting game.
I'm amazed the game is not even bad, It has some charm.
This isn't obscure. This was very popular back in the day. It was everywhere right next to Samurai Showdown. That's the guy who loves bashing his "clicky" buttons. I used to hate that in the arcade, when guys bashed them extra hard to make them loud.
Huele a farmacia. 😆😁
Crofts is such a zoomer. "I didn't know that was a thing."
This game is 🔥
Where's Bimmy?!?!
Lost a of of respect for that guy when he made a tier list and confessed he never played some SF titles.
Amazing video!
Most obscure? That game was in every arcade back then.
Lmfao! This game is so awesome wtf.
The movie was quite corny but based on the beat-em-up-side-scroller. However, the movie inspired the Double Dragon fighting game.
This game is not that mainstream but far far away of being obscure. Neo Geo classic.
justin, my man, you gots to get you a better microphone lol.
my favorite part is when Justin talks and my ears bleed from that blown out mic.
There's gotta be more obscure fighting games than this one. I actually unironically loved this game.
This game was busted if I remember correctly lol
Thanks!
This game is not obscure,I played alot with my friends back in the day,the gameplay is very good.
