![]() It is what the original Battletoads would have been. Battletoads & Double Dragon focuses on the fisticuffs rather than platforming and vehicle based content however. Make no mistake although the Shadow Boss and his goons are present this is very much a Battletoads game overall. For those that remember the nightmare of executing certain moves in the Double Dragon games this is a godsend although it robs the game of some depth. Since this was originally a NES game it only uses two buttons to simplify the controls and gameplay. They now have a number of situational attacks using the environment to match up with their compatriots. All of the Toads are identical and lack the individual flourishes from Battletoads in Battlemaniacs. This is not your typical beat em up where everyone has distinct moves and differences in strength and speed. As cool as it sounds the choice is largely irrelevant. Since this is a crossover you have a choice of all five characters: Zitz, Rash, Pimple, Billy and Jimmy Lee. The 16-bit ports enhance the graphics and keep the gameplay intact, for better and for worse. Battletoads & Double Dragon for the NES was the original version of the game and was an incredible technical achievement for the system. Facing overwhelming odds the Toads team up with the Lee Brothers to even the score. The Dark Queen has returned and has teamed up with the Shadow Boss to bolster her forces. It is fun but damn does it try your patience. This could have been an incredible game with some minor tweaking. Unfortunately Rare has once again created an unbearably difficult game that overshadows many of its good points. But in spite of that it turned out better than expected. I am sure many would have preferred the Ninja Turtles but that was not happening for obvious reasons.
