Street Fighter 2 Arcade and Double Dragon Arcade BEST INTRO’s EVER!!!!!!😎👊👊👊
Kid Chamillion
Revenge of Shinobi
I beat this at 9 with one quarter once after pumping every single ten dollar allowance I got at the bowling alley in the 80s, It was one of my best moments as a kid when I turned around and there was like 10, 20 year olds watching me beat it. I didn't even know they were there til the one guy was like, "There you go lil man!" Fuck I miss those days.
BaronNate beat it with one quarter?! I call bs on that lol. This game's difficulty is legendary, but if you did pull it off, I'd like to shake your hand sir
Unless you're asian, beating it with one quarter at 9 years old is total bullshit
its called practice and lots and lots of elbows. You also have another incentive, when you are playing with the money you earned yourself from working in the hot sun, you learn to value your money. I wish to God I had footage, but it was the 80s. Only really well off people had camcorders. one quarter, you can cheese the entire game literally with only elbows. Early game you can have fun, but elbows until the machine gun guy is beat past the traps.It also helps to have a lil brother that's damn good at games too to help you train. Games were a lot less forgiving back then, you got good, or you never got anywhere.
@@agonzalez8924 It's easily doable on "one quarter" (or 40 Australian cents lol) until you get to the final level--then the spears coming out of the walls will just steal your credits unless you do it perfect. Then after that, it's not that hard.
BaronNate *You’re a legend!*
this makes me emotional! the amount of quarters i spent on this game! I LOVE OUR GENERATION!!!! WE GREW UP ON SHIT LIKE THIS!!!!!!!
this is where we got many of our violent tendencies ;P
When u walked into a store or Landrymat and hear this music you couldn't heip but get goose bumps.
Nostalgia, miss my childhood years
me too, sux to get old :(
bro the song hit me
@@MegaBubble are you old now ? :D
Every time I listen to this soundtrack, I start to cry, because it's my childhood. This song is the soundtrack of my childhood
Pizza cocacola and $5 dollars in quarters for a good evening! In retrospect it was kinda a ripoff because I don't think I ever made it past the second level lol.
Epic tune has stayed with me in my head since the 80s lol and still to this day
Can’t stop listening 🥺
There was an arcade my father would take me to when I was a kid. THis machine was in the front for many years so you could here it. One time as an adult I palyed the theme over the phone and asked my dad if you knew what it was. He said "Oh, yeah the arcade" R.I.P pops.
It must have been very loud in front since he can remember the music. In my time, the loudest sound I can remember that was the air hockey. When you do score, it was the same sound from Zelda item acquisition jingle
I remember passing this game, when I was about 6 or 7 years old. We use to have the game at the 711 liquor store. This was back in 89 maybe 90. I remember me and some other Kid who must have been 10 or 11 years old were both playing. Once we defeated the Boss at the final stage, I yelled out to him we have to fight each other, for the girl. He was out of quarters and almost out of life. He said hold, on hold on, so I hit him with an elbow and defeated him. In my mind I couldn't lose the game, I wanted to see the final ending.That little punk, got mad, turned around and punch me in my stomach.
I cried, but took it like a little champ. This game and Tokie where the first games I ever passed. 5 Dollars would get me a chilli cheese dog, a med slurpee, and about 3 dollars in quarters for video games. I was good for about the next 3 hours.
This takes me back through memory lane. It was an awesome time growing up in the 80s and 90s..
Your 7-eleven was also a liquor store?
You’ll have to tell me cause I was rarely in 7-11 back in the day.
That story is hilarious
Was at Jim's burgers and liquor store in 1989, playing and hearing this song
burgers and liquor in the same place haha, sweeet
A well known fact is when you here this theme, you're getting revved up to deliver an Ass-Kicking! :)
There really is something special about this good old Double Dragon intro. It's really awesome!
Excellent theme for a great video game like Double Dragon, one of my favorite titles to play for hours on the machines or on the computer, passing each level without losing any life 😎😎😎
the game for a generation..while the internet hasnt come to human beings, that was a part of our leisure hours. schoolhood memory...
czcams.com/video/eDzl8YRc3Ng/video.html
Memories! (tears)
Chris's Burgers in Cudahy, California used to have this game and my mom worked there. so after school i would spend HOURS playing DD and i NEVER beat the shit!!! hahahaha! its all good, i had a blast trying. i sure do miss the 80's and 90's yall......
that final level is kinda BS, and a waste of quarters if it randomly knocks you into the pit lol
One of my fondest moments with this game was the first time a buddy and me made it to the end of game and then we had to fight each other to the death.
I can't miss this game... Egypt 1988 in a big arcade room, i fell in love with Double Dragon!
that's cool! what was it like in Egypt?
@@MegaBubble In Egypt in those years people did not play at home and arcades were places to share and young people! We especially liked fighting games (fights and beat them up) these are the ones that brought most money! the games who worked the most in the 90s in Egypt was Street fighter 2 (sega version) Double Dragon Arcade, Cadillac and dinosaurs and Final Fight! XD
@@juliannakaberovsky4545Sega version?
oh man....saturday morning paper route then right to the arcade all day. PPL LINING up to play....some just watched....god bless the saturday morning arcade....
Best video game song!
THANK YOU TECHOS JAPAN , NINTENDO AND ACCLAIM ENTERTAINMENT FOR THIS WONDERFUL PIECE OF ART. BEST NES EVER PRODUCED.
this is arcade, not NES :O
@@MegaBubble I played this game on nes platform only. In India we don't have arcade having these games running on them. Only Pacman here.
Quanti meravigliosi ricordi... 😭
La debería tocar una sinfónica porque es una pieza de nostalgia y hasta la fecha moviliza muchos corazones
I LOVE this Game !!!! So Manny memories came to me . Thanks!!!!
Best intro ever!
God you gotta love video game music!!!
dude my father is the best he bought all the arcade games and this one is my favourite
Great Classic!!! Thanks TAITO!!!!!
Taito has so many classics!! 😿
this an a amazing game! with an even better intro!
Awesome, brings me back to my childhood, stood in arcades waiting in line to play this.
wonderful memories indeed B-)
You had to WAIT IN LINE just to play an arcade game? Nowadays all you get are racing simulators and shoot 'em ups. Can't imagine waiting for that shit.
+Edward Gaines you cant 'cause you werent there. Respect.
***** You're right. Luv for arcades is paramount. Respect!
Hey just wondered if you had considered 'growing the fuck up' rather than constantly trying to recapture childhood experiences... sorry but somebody has to say it. I guess that applies to everyone here especially the dork who uploaded
Hasn't aged well, but was an absolute crazy game back in the fall of '87. Contra, Bubble Bobble, Pinbot, High Speed, Arkanoid and Black Tiger all wailed in the background of every Arcade back then.
I most like 80's arcade music are double dragon and contra
jamás acabe el doble dragón y su música era increíble
This theme as a kid made me stand up to my bullies and beat them down💪🏿💯
I doubt that very much
@@ffxiarcadius this actually happened. Really
Thanks for the extension!
ya man! B-) glad you enjoyed
the sound track always made me fight 4 myself memories
If you were to make a ranked listing of the most memorable video game music of all time, this would be the highest ranked one to not come from a Mario or Street Fighter game.
Fantastic! Liked! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I hear this at work right before attending a mandatory meeting that could have been an email. 🐉 🐲
The most broken of the DD games where the deadly elbow smash could not be defeated by any enemy in the game until they finally learned how to duck under it in double dragon 2. LOL Otherwise a great game. Sound effects were better than Double Dragon 2.
Yes, the dreaded backward elbow, that'll take care of everyone!
haha damn! And if that wasn't enough, they made the punch and back kick button in reverse when facing the opposite direction!
@@AndrewTheTransformer You mean Double Dragon 2. I kinda got used to it but hated it at first. The idea was that each button corresponded to "attack" based on the direction of the button and not the direction you were facing. If you push the left attack button you will still attack anything to the left. If you push the right attack button then you will attack anything to the right. What direction you face determines if its a punch or kick. Very confusing at first but once you know that it makes sense. It took me a lot longer to learn how to play Street Fighter II with its 6 buttons. Back in 1991 that was a big deal as no other game had this many buttons. If you like beat 'em ups like Final Fight, double dragon, battletoads, ninja turtles arcade etc go seek out an indie game called "Fight 'n Rage". You will not be disappointed. Been playing it and its great. Think of it like "final fight" and "street of rage" had their genes spliced together with "ninja turtles arcade". (ie but the mutants are the bad guys) here is a link to the game: czcams.com/video/CBy1jGrvmOo/video.html
@@UToobUsername01 Ah I see. That's so different compared to other fighting games haha but an interesting system nonetheless! I had a look at Fight n Rage and damn. It does remind me of classic arcade beat em ups. The font really felt nostalgic but where did they get those names from? Ricardo, and F Norris?
broken? the AI was broken, jump kick were useless they would just duck it and kick you back, plus i believe it took hp off so it was the only way to win and not fool proof as you had to spam it without getting hit once
ラスボスのマシンガン野郎を倒していた子供の頃の記憶が蘇る
Love this 👍🏼
it's like you're sittin' there waiting for someone to put quarters in :P
Thanks you. Gracias a quien subio el video.
やはり初代AC版が１番神曲！😊
Cuando llegaba al final del jefe y sonaba este tema me emocionaba cómo que me daba ánimos valor para ganar un viaje a mi infancia
Ah to be a kid again in the 80's
yeah, it would be nice 😿
Double Dragon is the reason why I'm a gamer today I beat it in the arcade using one move can anyone guess what it is?
something else other than the elbow!
Wow wow wow lovin it.....
So nostalgic. I stole my mom’s quarters to play this game at a laundromat down the street from where I used to live as a kid. My mom found out and gave me a good spanking.
Friday ngt - October 8, 2021. Kh prk trrc.
Viaje a mi infancia excelente video juego 😎
I remember this! I remember that the music was stronger than the NES version.
Taito? I thought this was a Technos game. Not the best game ever but a contender for best intro music ever for an arcade game. Technos remixed this tune for both sequels.
The person or company who made the theme is Taito. they are also the people who made the arcade version, i'm pretty sure.
I think Taito just distributed it. Technos were the developers. Technos done quite a few fighting games like the Combatribes.
Techno created the game. Taito was the US distributer of the game. Like how Rockstar North makes GTA but Take Two Interactive owns and distributes their games under the Rockstar label.
WTF, this is hands down one of the best ever games of the 1980s. From a technical perspective, the fight mechanics were super. I mean, they coded full nelson headlock functionality, and infinite whipping of the victim by a second player FFS! Epic, and this music just puts the icing on this very fine cake.
Actually it was Originally by Technos Japan Corporation, which no longer exists as of 1996. Since June 11, 2015, Arc System Works currently owns the IP and picked it up from Million Co. Ltd.. Taito localized the arcade version for the U.S. AKSYS Games, the US localization team distributed the NES versions via the Virtual Console service. I have "Double Dragon Advance" for the Game Boy Advance, published by Atlus Co. Ltd./SEGA, developed by Million Co. Ltd.. Tradewest localized the first Double Dragon for the Nintendo Entertainment System in the US, while the 2 sequels were localized by Acclaim Entertainment, now currently owned by CollectorVision Games.
The best!!!!!
神曲だよなぁ
I could never get passed the bs part where you have to go inside and the spears would kill you
yeah, it's terrible :P
You need to jump forward a few times starting in a specific moment.
@@Magistus1981 That or what I did was hug the wall and make the block knock me down but it would put you closer to the wall where they didn't activate till you were past it. the dual spears you hugged the wall and jumped a little past the spear facing the way you were going and they would activate at the same time when you jumped and you would pass them at the arc of the jump. the end boss you could fight on the balcony too. Found that out by mistake when I got tossed up there by the muscle guy. XD all the other mobs leave when he dies. lol
*GLORY*
Hell yeah
Willie and his goddamn machine gun
LOL Willie is intense af
I loved how he’d watch from his little balcony until he decided it was time to join the fray himself
@@MrSprattibaggs With his clone green dragon henchmen at his side too; those tough bastards
@@MrSprattibaggs he could have just taken the shot from the balcony really :P
@@MegaBubble I would've been a lousy gang boss, as I never thought of that until now. I would've just gotten my ass kicked by Billy and Jimmy.
la mia infanzia game immortali
pov you grab some cookies and jimmy shows up
❤️1987❤️ΝΟΣΤΑΛΓΙΑ❤️
I know there's already a cartoon of this but they need to make a anime version of double dragon, I can see Todoroki from my hero academia voicing Billy and Kuwabara from yu yu hakusho voicing Jimmy and Marron from dragon ball z voicing Marian
I own this machine and dd2 such great games in their time
Hermoso
YES!!!
B-)
Elbow give thanks
the elbow is the best move in any video game!! ok well, maybe in the top 100 of best moves/weapons in games :333
❤️1987❤️ΑΝΑΜΝΗΣΕΙΣ❤️
Extended!
wooooo!!!
Hola Amigos!, Bienvenidos a un nuevo vídeo de Dark Souls en el que...
The weirdest thing to me about this music is that it sounds the best on the NES. I've listened to almost every version and the first DD on the NES is the best sounding. I guess it's the synths.
I always found the NES version to be a bit hyper lolz, the DD2 NES one is really good to me though. well DD1 is good too, but I like this one better. it's funky and hardcore and stuff :P
@@MegaBubble Listening through DD 2. You're right, it's also pretty good.
The 4 FM oscillators of the NES does wonders 🙋♂🙏
the arcade were better than the simulation.
you mean console, simulation would just be the arcade version still
Renegade!!!
Is there a VST instrument for this type of arcade synth?
Well, the sound chip is a Yamaha YM2151 FM. So you may wanna look for VSTs that replicate that chip's sounds.
Eccellente colonna sonora! Ma cosa aspetta la Taito a farne una versione 3D con inclusa anche la musica originale dell'arcade? Oppure dia il titolo in licenza, basta che esca una versione moderna della trilogia, magari con gli arcade integrati...!
Taito vaya
I would like to dedicate this to my elder brother Fazlur Khan!
BY THE POWER OF THE DRAGON!!
I am Captain Planet? :O
Sounds very Sega genesis
Ha ha, by "extended" you don't mean this is a longer version, you mean you're just letting the normal tune play for 5 minutes on loop! Hilarious :D
what
I'll made a nekketsu kouha kunio kun version of the dragon twins
Elbow attack is so broken in this game lol 😂
HEAVY INDICATION🟢YES IT WILL SNOW TELL SAYJACK NO ON GUEST GREEN CHEVY 4X4 NOW ITS JUST THE ORANGE🟠💎WHATEVER I CHOOSE
I Loved To Free The Girl....but I must say there was nothing I hated like the punches of BA. pha. Pha.pha.pha
5150 Nation in here...
Nes version is better
NES 2 was better than arcade 2 - IDK about 1 - I guess I can understand liking it better, but the arcade version is clearly superior :P
Vaya transportado atras a mas de 30 años ok
Un gran juego y un gran tema
