"We are in a retro gaming renaissance. The burgeoning indie game scene, coupled with the ease of digital distribution, has let developers make the games of yesteryear without millions of dollars in investments. Take WayForward, who made the fantastic Contra 4, A Boy and His Blob and so much more, for example They haven’t always been at the top of their game, last year’s BloodRayne Betrayal had incredibly mixed review scores and it looks like Double Dragon Neon is going to be in that boat." - David Rhinehart of Geekenstein.com
With River City Girls 2 arriving next week, it's time to look at the company's best!
"Digital games are more convenient than physical games, and usually cheaper too. Still, there's something about collecting physical games that appeals to many gamers. Preordering limited physical editions directly from boutique labels is always an option, but sometimes retailers offer the same editions for a better price. That's certainly the case with Best Buy, which currently has 14 Nintendo Switch titles from Limited Run up for preorder, including TMNT: Shredder's Revenge, Double Dragon Neon, and several more co-op hits," says Co-Optimus.
Limited Run Games is preparing physical editions for both Double Dragon Neon and Double Dragon IV for the Switch that include standard and Classic Limited Editions. Pre-orders go live on May 28th, 2021.
The original Double Dragon from the Arcades about 30 odd years ago was amazing at the time, i played Double Dragon Neon not long ago and it had totally lost all of its appeal, its either Double Dragon isnt that good anymore or Neon is a crap representative of the original..
