darthkur Posted November 9, 2009 Share Posted November 9, 2009 (edited) The Ultimate Challenge. Twin brothers Billy and Jimmy Lee learned to fight the hard way -- for survival in the unforgiving city streets. Their brand of combat -- classic martial arts maneuvers mixed with anything-goes street brawling -- has turned them into walking lethal weapons. Now, the Lees must summon all their fighting abilities and cunning into meeting the greatest challenge of their lives -- rescuing Billy's girlfriend, Marion. She's been kidnapped by the Black Warriors, the savage street gang led by the mysterious Shadow Boss. The twins pursue the Black Warriors through the city streets and its outskirts. Finally they fight their way into the Secret Enemy Base. There, Billy and Jimmy meet the Shadow Boss. It's a battle to the finish, with Marion as the prize! (In this scenario, for the HSC, Jimmy is on vacation and Billy is on his own.) Emulators are fine as is whatever controller you feel the most comfortable with. Screenshots are great but not mandatory. Please do not use any cheat/hack options. These include auto-fire, unlimited lives, invincibility, etc. Settings: One Player Only Contest ends on: 11-23-09 at 1:00am EST.

thursday83 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 (edited) I beat it with this score. Using a pro-line, I experimented with a few different controllers for this, pro-line by far the best. Nintendo controller great as well, which is what the last high score was used with (no emulators here) but not as sharp with this game. Almost. Psyched for the new NES controller I ordered as part of the 25th anniversary package, should be great. If only he would make one of those for the 5200. But anyway, here's the score, and I think we were all hoping some more people would participate in this contest.....the lowest turnout I've seen in a while....you guys are the aces here, I must have gotten lucky on this one. I'm ready for the next one now. When's the poll start? Edited November 17, 2009 by thursday83 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

darthkur Posted November 23, 2009 Author Share Posted November 23, 2009 That's it for this round. Congratulations to atomickneedrop for being the best brawler. I hope everyone had fun with Double Dragon. Also, thanks to both Mitch and atomickneedrop for the tips above. I'll be sure to try those out.

I'm beginning to think you are intentionally beating me out by just a few points! Sorry about that. There does seem to be a developing pattern. Purely unintentional I assure you.
