Everyone bitches about the difficulty of Double Dragon III, but I always found it pretty simple.

Some things are easier, other things are harder. I plan on beating the US version deathless soon, main reason i'm playing jap version is the music is MUCH better on it.

Such as? It's been awhile, but IIRC Akumajou Densetsu was easier for me in every respect.

grant has a throwing knife instead of fast stabbing knife that he holds which is easier to kill bosses with

if you continue after dying to dracula you have to do all of Stage A again, on US version you start at Dracula

Jap version deal less damage on the first few levels and matches US damage in the later levels, i don't really see the big deal here as the first few levels are easy either way

doppleganger in Jap version does SIX points of damage with Syfa fire spell (this COULD be the same in US version, i can't remember)

Alucard bat form uses hearts incredibly fast in the Jap version. In the US version they drain slowly allowing you to basically fly through the cave half the time.

Apart from that the only other difference is the audio and some of the item placements (which candles hold which weapons, etc).

WTF is this? Did they add more for the GC version?

You cant get the lightning spell really early on the ship in the Japanese version, which makes it a little easier. I don't know if any others really change the game.

Cleared hard mode once on a single life. Don't think I'll ever do it again though. Requires pretty extensive memorization (e.g. memorizing item and enemy placement, which weapons works best for each situation, when to use the mega bombs, ect.)

I could beat Contra without taking any hits, so I tried speed-running it. Could never get the hang of rapid-firing by tapping on the B button, so the end-boss would always mess up my runs.

I can complete this game literally blindfold with both hands literally tied behind my back.

If you leave the game alone for a while Barney starts walking to the end of the stage of his own accord
