The brothers infrequently show an ability to sense when the other is in danger. Injury sustained by one is also taken by the other (although this characteristic is not always consistent) and if one has his powers deactivated by injury, so will the other. They usually transform out of those forms by crossing swords again and saying in unison, 'For Might! For Right! We are Double Dragons!', although several episodes show that heavy injury can deactivate their powers. In the series, the Lee brothers are martial-arts instructors and police consultants, who assume superheroic identities at moments of escalated violence. Syndication (Amazin' Adventures) (United States) Double Dragon was an arcade game, one of the first really popular scrolling. A Double Dragon cartoon? Double Dragon? Really?” Yes. A animated TV series based on the first Double Dragon video game.

#Double dragon cartoon update#
Update - 12/9 - Suikoden, Drakengard, Dreamweb, Wi.Well, I guess it's time for me to dual-boot.HG101 Digital Archive Project - Dragon Slayer.Miku's hair can turn into wings?! Crazy.PSP 2000 VS PSP Go: Practicality VS Shininess.Comer el puerro no fué una buena idea.I bought a few more so except some more eventually, some day. Never got ported, though a version of its spiritual successor, Goketsuji Ichizoku: Matrimelee, hit the PS2 awhile back.)Īnyway, here's two episodes for download from one of the tapes. It's not all that popular amongst the SNK set, but something about the character designs, the flow, the crunchiness, and music really comes together. (Not being sarcastic - I actually REALLY like Rage of the Dragons. The Mexican designed rip off Rage of the Dragons for the Neo Geo is, somehow, a substantially better game in every regard. It eschewes the side-scrolling co-op beat-em-up action in favor of one-on-one fighting, which was the style at the time. They even had the audacity to stick a numeral on it - Double Dragon V: The Shadow Falls, released for the Genesis, SNES and Jaguar. What's even worse is that someone, somewhere realized that the cartoon was so greatly removed from the game series that they made their own completely new, completely different video game to tie it in together. It actually went on for two whole seasons for a total of 26 episodes. For instance, they both wield swords! That shoot lightning! Also, they drive around in a car and fight all kinds of ludicrous Saturday morning cartoon villains! It's really bad.
#Double dragon cartoon movie#
The cartoon series is something different entirely - the movie very vaguely got things right, but the cartoon takes the concept of two brothers fighting crime and runs off in its own direction. It's out on DVD and so won't be part of this archive project here, but you can check out the Nostalgia Critic's review for some insight into that bit o' disaster. This didn't stop the media blitz of Double Dragon stuff in 1994, at least a few years after its prime, with a live action movie and 26 episode cartoon series.
The series eventually grew less popular as the years progressed - no one really liked Double Dragon III, and while Super Double Dragon was far from bad, it also didn't quite command the same respect.
Double Dragon was unquestionably one of the most popular NES games in the late 80s.
