>>Also DD2 on PC-Engine CD is the best.

It surely looks great and the redbook audio does wonders, however it also feels like the PC-Engine version lacks the same sensibility and attention to details found in the NES version - some things like only a single track playing per level (no stage clear jingles, no special tunes), several moves missing sound effects, or stuff like the ("epic") last hit on last boss. It feels like they pushed everything into raw power to compensate the lack of finer details.

Cutscenes were also fine, but they suffer from the "show, don't tell" syndrome. The static, yet subtle scenes on the NES don't get in the way as much as the anime cutscenes from PC-Engine CD version

But again, it's a very good version, and makes one think how Super/Return of Double Dragon would be so much better running at DD2 PCE-CD' pace.
