Don't you guys think that the chopper at the end of level one looks like the Tomahawk from GI Joe. Remember the one Lift Ticket flew? I always thought that. I know, I'm a nerd. Girls don't want to have sex with me.

There's a girl for every geek, trust me I know. :)

I miss the NES games how are you guys able to play these things. Are there consoles out or something that can be bougth new again?

[shincyriades]

The console I assume was rented from the store Daniel T works at, unless he happens to own a console. However, there are companies who have made reproductions of the NES system.

[shincyriades]

If you mean emulation, plenty of options may be found via search engines.

[HunterWillie]

[WobblyWheelbarrow]

Great game, I still have it in my basement with the original box & manual.

20 years laters, I finally realise I inserted a whole lot of coins in this game...

This was good but the real version, the arcade was better. Game play was more challenging.At first, the beginner will be thrown off thinking it's just like Double Dragon. Wrong!! The format is the same but most guys get killed with one hit or 5. Your energy bar has 3 to 5. Jump kick is the only way to get yourself out of a bind. Punch when cautious. Kick to terminate. Use machine gun to turn the tides. This game was tight especially with co-op play.

[Marbus0]

What the fuck? i never knew you could machine gun the chopper. i thought you had use the grenades.

[NeoUnknown]

Thank god, one of the first playthroughs where you actually destroy the helicopter with a machine gun. I use to do it all the time and I was looking through playthroughs and no one else does it but you guys. Nice job.

[XxGunFacexX]

I remember this being alot harder when I was a kid.. Mainly cuz I wanted to back fist everyone.

[SwaggerLikeUz]

Haven't seen this in ages! 

[cosmicgate07]

pow for mame is much better

This game has an awesome bgm. Case in point: The 1st stage's bgm and the 2nd stage boss bgm for example.
