      To this day, Double Dragon Advance is probably the Closest and BEST "port" for the original Arcade game.

    Sega Master System was the version I had, and played it to death. It's a bit on the easy side but very fun and mostly accurate to the arcade as you say. Most importantly though it allows for 2 player simultaneous play, which many home versions do not.

    I used to play the PC version a lot. You could play either 16 colour mode or CGA. The one you show is the 16 colour mode but on my computer instead of being too fast it was way too slow and not very fun. The CGA mode on the other hand ran at a perfect speed for our ancient computer and included everything the arcade had except that it loads between levels and the statues that stabbed in the last level weren't there. Even though the AMIGA and Genesis have much better graphics I would say the PC version was the best port because it was very true to the arcade and the game speed was just right. Then Genesis version looks way too fast to me.

    There's term coined by Indie Gamer Chick for the feeling of weight that characters should have in a brawler, where blows look like they have force and actually hurt, and enemies react as such and are pushed back. She calls it 'oomph'. It's a good term, and an easily-understood marker for what distinguishes a good brawler from a lame one.

    Unfortunately, I suffered the Melbourne House c64 version. I still have the £9.99 Deluxe boxed version. It had a note from the programmers apologising for the characters being split into two different sprites due to the limited memory. Despite it being bad, I played it more than most games I had. We just accepted that Double Dragon was a very hard game to convert, so we forgave it for being as bad as it was.

    As a kid I thought the SMS version far outclassed the gimped NES port, but as an adult I realize it's the exact opposite. The minute-by-minute gameplay is broken by the fact that there's no hitstun, therefore no combos. You can't even link two punches together unless the CPU decides to stand there and let you do it. The SMS audio/visuals are much better but the actual in-game mechanics and fisticuffs are much worse.

      Double Dragon 2 on the NES was co-op, my brother and I had loads of fun playing that game! While I can now objectively realise it wasn't a fantastic game, it's the one I have fondest memories of, along with maybe Elite and SM3.

    I really wanted the original trilogy to be rebooted on the Neo•Geo, but instead we got two knock-off versions of SF and KOF with the "Double Dragon" franchise name slapped on them.
    Also, the amazing and addictive GBA port made a huge mistake by shoehorning characters and stages in the game that belong in a potential Double Dragon Advance 2.

I had rented it back in the day and was severely disappointed with it. The SMS version was better in comparison. Of his list, the GBA port would be #1, the Lynx port at #2 (even with at times sluggish inputs), the SMS port at #3, then the Genesis/Megadrive at #4.

I also remembering finding so many bugs in the game such as getting the enemy 'stuck' in the background then moving him offscreen to effectively eliminate them... lol

    There is only one way to play double dragon and that is in your local arcade in the 80s with a queue of people watching you and trying to get their go next,. nothing at home comes close, even the emulation is lacking unless you've got an original board and screen. My Sony Trinitron screen does a fair job at it but it's still missing that certain something, nothing like being shoulder to shoulder with a mate or stranger and making your way through this superb game, i had the speccy growing up and the atari st, i more or less agree with your list besides the advance version, i cannot stand this game being bastardised any more than it already is and all the new versions are utter dogshit.

      If you want your arcade games to run close to perfect then you'll need a CRT and a decent VGA to CGA converter, using batocera you'll need to add 240p in a super resolution then some mode lines...
