I wish they had made the red guy the main guy.

>Outsourced to another company because Technos was too busy doing Combatribes (which turned out to be rather meh anyway)
>Literal pay2win system where you can only get certain power-ups (including additional characters) by credit feeding (removed in the JP version mercifully)
>Globe trekking plot that starts out fine, but becomes pretty ridiculous when it ends with the good guys fighting Cleopatra's reanimated corpse in Egypt.
>The Rosetta Stones are a bunch of Dragon Ball-like McGuffins that's nothing like the real Rosetta Stone. Research much?
>Sloppy animation that looks like its skipping frames.
>Is the series was called Double Dragon, why is there suddenly three Lee brothers?
The music was nice I guess and I like the JP flyer, but that's it. It's interesting to watch the superplays online and witness how easy it is to break the game.

The NES version was better, but it's still shares some of the same stupidities.

It was outsourced to another developer, but Kishimoto (the original Double Dragon creator) oversaw its development and even named the game after one of his favorite '70s bands.

I'm not particular fond of either, but the NES version allowed you to play as a ninja. That counts for something.

Double Dragon 3

Arcade

Genesis

The arcade version wasn't particularly good game to begin with, but the Genesis has missing animation frames and music, plus worse controls. It wasn't even based on the superior Japanese version.

And Double Dragon 3: The Arcade Game. Shame the game sucks though.
