2D Beat 'em Ups that aren't Streets of Rage et al

eh, the D&D games seem pretty in line in terms of length with most other belt scrollers (40-60 min)

now, IGS games, those are long

if u want to buy this rom it’s a very fancy presentation of it

there is a very weird metafictional framing device where the river city girls buy an old super famicom and play the 25 year old game which was based on their lives which they don’t question much

also the localization of the game proper comes in [dry] and [fun] options which is an interesting choice

I spy Abobo!

I don’t remember him showing up in any of the 3DS installments. I was worried the rights got split or something.

the TMNT game will come out someday. . .
But it’s TRAGIC that it’s tied to the 80’s cartoon though. It’s time for the IP to move forward. Let the kids of today get their TMNT game or bring in the IDW stuff.
This would be really cool because the designs are better, more distinct, and would allow for Jennika so there would be a cool female turtle in the mix. For a belt scroller, it really wouldn’t need to be a much different game either.

Someone must have joked about licensing the Vanilla Ice track, then someone else on the team got so pissed at that prospect that they called Ghostface right away.
