It’s a good move to use to clear out areas with a lot of enemies. A new move was added a spinning hurricane jump kick. It didn’t take me long to get used to it but I guess everybody is different.

A lot of gamers didn’t like this but I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. So instead of just A for punch and B for kick it changes. Depending on what side of your character the enemy is on the punch and kicks button switch. The fighting gameplay has changed from the first Double Dragon a bit also. In Mode A, if you hit the other player you will not hurt each other and with Mode B, attacking the other player will give damage. Thankfully you can choose whether or not you wanted to be able to hurt your co-op partner by selecting either game mode A or B. Now you could play through the story with a friend which made things a lot more fun. You are fighting to avenge the death of your girlfriend Marian who was killed by the last boss of the game called the Mysterious Warrior.ĭouble Dragon 2 had something that was missing in the first NES version of Double Dragon: two player co-op mode. You play as the brothers Billy and Jimmy Lee. Double Dragon 2 is remembered as being one of the better arcade game to NES ports from back in the day.

The NES version also added cut scenes in between levels. The NES version contains five more levels of gameplay for a total of nine levels. Double Dragon 2 was a port of the beat em up arcade game of the same name. Double Dragon 2 was released in 1990 by Acclaim for the NES.
