    Anybody else check these out? There are quite a few classics in this series, Twinbee, Gradius, Double Dragon 1 and 2, Crazy Climber, Mat Mania exciting hour, Goemon, Scramble, and tons others I've forgotten about.

    Just picked up twinbee myself, it included two roms and a Caravan mode.

    Back when I had a PS4 I got Double Dragon. DD is actually the reason I decided to get a PS4. I was also waiting for some other games to come out. I sold the PS4 before DD2 and Bubble Bobble came out tho. I would have loved to have those.

    I'm going to try to get all of them. Twin bee is HARD. No continue is taxing.

    There isn't a cheaper way to legally play Double Dragon? Is there something different about the PS4 version?

    I was wondering the same thing. Is it enhanced in some way? It seems a bit odd to drop $350-$400 on next-gen hardware for a game like DD.

    seems like a straight up emulation

    Well, I wanted to play it legally. I don't have a smartphone and would hate to play it without a real controller anyway. I eventually got the steam version, but that version gives you 3 continues in arcade mode and 0 continues in story mode so it's not perfect either.

    You could have bought the actual arcade machine cheaper...

    Sure there isn't some way to change that? I'm surprised there isn't a button you can press to generate more continues. Guess they just want you to GIT GUD.

    Git Gud at Double Dragon is simply not possible that game is designed to violate your bum bum.

    Isn't DD on XBLA for 360 and PSN for the PS3?
    You can get either of those for $150 new.

    DD was on 360 for a limited time. It's never been on PS3, unless you mean the reboot Double Dragon Neon. That game you can't play alone so I don't want that one. I did buy it already but it's no replacement for DD1 or 2.
