Double Dragon (NES) Longplay

Описание: Double Dragon is a side-scrolling beat-'em-up video game developed by Technōs Japan for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It was first published in Japan on April 8, 1988, followed by a North American release two months later by Tradewest. A Game Boy port was released in Japan, North America, and Europe in 1990. The game shares its title with the original arcade game, sharing the same plot while making several changes. Double Dragon has had numerous rereleases on various downloadable services on Nintendo consoles and several compilations.

GAMEPLAY
============================================================
The most notable difference the NES version has from the arcade game is the omission of the arcade's two players cooperative game mode. Instead, the two-players mode in the main game ("Mode A") is done by alternating, although both players take control of Billy. In this version, Jimmy Lee (the Player 2 character in the arcade version), serves as the main antagonist.
Due to the technical limitations of the NES, the game can only generate two enemies on-screen to confront the player and both enemies are the same character. Additionally, weapons cannot be brought to the next fight if the original enemy carrying it is defeated. A level-up system was also implemented. The player begins the game with only the basic punches and kicks available to their character, gaining the more powerful ones after acquiring the experience points needed to use them. The player has a total of seven skill levels that they can achieve throughout the game.
============================================================
PLOT
============================================================
Double Dragon is the story of Billy and Jimmy Lee, twin brothers who learned to fight on the cold, tough streets of their city. Their expert knowledge of the martial arts, combined with their street-smarts, have made them both formidable fighting machines.
But now Billy is faced with his greatest challenge: his girlfriend, Marian, has been kidnapped by the Black Warriors, the savage street gang of the mysterious Shadow Boss! Using whatever weapons come to hand - knives, whips, bats, rocks, oil drums, even dynamite - Billy must pursue the gang through the slums, factories, and wooded outskirts of the city to reach the hideout for his final confrontation with the Shadow Boss... his brother Jimmy!
