[TAS] NES Double Dragon II: The Revenge "1 player" by Xipo in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/...
TAS originally published on 2013-11-11
Double Dragon II: The Revenge is a beat'em-up game starring Billy (or Bimmy, depending on the game version) and Jimmy Lee in a quest to get revenge on a gang for killing Billy's girlfriend. Their journey starts on city streets, but it eventually goes to a variety of places like a helicopter, a dark forest, a haunted mansion, and a final fight bordering on the supernatural. You must play the hardest difficulty, Supreme Master, in order to reach the true final boss.
One interesting feature of the game is that some very powerful moves can only be used from a crouching position, usually after landing from a jump or getting up from a knockdown. This is why you see the player jump so frequently.
This run by Xipo ( tasvideos.org/... ) plays the game with only 1 player. It is slower than the two-player run ( tasvideos.org/... ) largely because it can't use tricks like the two players hitting each other with flying knees. However, there are still some interesting tricks and strategies in this movie well worth watching.
Watch this run get played back on a real NES ( • TAS Console Verificati... ).

Damn I remember mashing my controller JUST to get that damn knee to work.

[@leon321ab]

Me to...or cheating. Just hold the A + B turbo buttons. ;)

[@ReaperX7]

Billy's knee is more dangerous than any weapon known to man.

[@Koettnylle]

It will be balanced out in the next patch probably

[@generalkawasaki9485]

his body from the waist down is incredibly disproportionate compared to his fists or face, yet the kneecap is his most devastating attack.

[@musashigundoh]

Arrows are his only weakness

[@Supperdude9]

@@hawaiidkw1 Then you haven't played Yakuza 0 with a fully powered up Kiryu and Majima.

[@Taylor.Dude.]

Tracy! Tracy! Tracy! Tracy! Pow!

[@bysckath]

Thanks for these hi res reuploads!

[@BrokenOcktive2]

9:24 *the most awesome noise in NES history!*

[@kendrickcooperimmarshallte2142]

This was an amazing feat!

[@marianobenitez8705]

Genio total! Por favor decime como se hacía el rodillazo y el helicóptero de patada!

[@chrissmith8216]

As a little 7 year old back in 92. That eye level use to piss me off! When i finally beat it, I woke my older cousin up! He was pissed! 😅

[@AdityaxLucid]

How to download this game again ? 🔥

[@sahisnudas5980]

Last moment 😅...

[@josephtate8142]

6:14 😮

[@KusanagiShirou]

I knee-ed to see this😅

[@alexponce249]

The difficulty doesn’t make sense! 🤔 The enemies don’t die from one super knee move in supreme difficult! Try for yourself, even at the first level on supreme difficult (which is the difficult level to completely finish the game) they take at least 2 hurricane kicks or 2 super knee moves to die!

[@AshinaElite]

😨😰🤯

[@Maximus-123]

Без изменений жизни не интересно

[@erikrosenquist9839]

Looks like Billy Lee REALLY trained extremely hard!

[@AndyGoth111]

Don't you mean, Billy Knee?

[@misterx3188]

6:15 - Oh, that works? 😂

[@doslover]

I remember doing the jumping spin kick all the time playing this game as a kid but would be super happy on the rare occasion I'd accidentally get the jumping knee move. It makes me super happy to see it absolutely wrecking shop through the whole game.

[@fjaatdistylike5496]

I like how people try the Jumperdejump but when Fiona does the likkerdelik like a Kabouter it ruins the RNG of madness :)

[@generalkawasaki9485]

I always enjoyed punching the snot out of Schwarzenegger, but now I realize Danny Trejo was also in this game!

[@fjaatdistylike5496]

I like when people say they miss something when u still can play it :)

[@Atylonisus]

I miss disliking KZbin content

[@Illgaia]

I love how casual the dialogue is at the end there, as though they were talking about the weather. "That night, an angel descended from the heavens...." An angel appears, resurrects a dead lady, and no one thinks it's weird.

[@Supperdude9]

A: Double Dragon 2 takes place after an apocalypse B: The Dragons traversed through an evil temple that had eyes on the walls C: They took on their own shadows D: They just finished a fight with some guy with evil power and when he was defeated the power left his body up into the sky This is the world they live in.

[@LuwiigiMaster]

​​@@Supperdude9 reminds me in Double Dragon Neon, the game starts with one of the brothers saying 'Aw man, not this again!' when Marion gets abducted. They're just kind of used to this shit.

[@Taylor.Dude.]

When the Double Dragon brothers aren’t busy, they hangout in a bar with Marion and Cindy. They drink beer, play pool, and listen to Billy Squier on the jukebox.

[@РусланДмитриев-п5ц]

Блин классная игра!) Моя любимая игра!))) ✌️✌️💪💪💪

[@sigmaforte2903]

he said: damn what a classic game, my favorite game

[@reignman2103]

Man there was just something about that BLAST sound working in tandem with them flying across the screen that is so satisfying 😂

[@TheOfficialGuineaPigOfYoutube]

Real 😂

[@SomeGuy712x]

"You get a knee! And, you get a knee!"

[@NahNotNFS]

4:56 LMAOO

[@Detroit-gx5nd]

Launched them into outer space

[@Mee0tchy]

Perfect execution! I can't see anyone beating this time, well done!

[@darandomone1365]

I'm sure I still have the muscle memory to repeat the flying knee

[@taiteakopyte1504]

Are these AI speedruns?

[@chrisz5z]

Dude's kneecap is made out of solid vibranium

[@muanpuiafanai5604]

how come your health doesn't ever deplete on any situation even when you jump and hit spikes?? is that cheating, this aint a fair speedrun so, not cool

[@justinbeckett3208]

I'm 42 now, I got this game for Xmas when I was around 10, most memorable Xmas ever. My personal best was 26 minutes on single player, supreme master.. I thought I was good and impressed my friends after school then lol.

[@yungvirticus]

It feels weird watching these 8-bit game TASs in 1080p, for some reason.

[@danedeturk9708]

You’re WAY better than I was at this game. I don’t even think I beat it.

[@marcelofreire8336]

Joguei muito quando era criança

[@augustrodriguez8023]

Take a knee cadet

[@samwood3691]

Used to play this game religiously as a kid and never saw the jumping straight up knee (where you don’t move forward, like at 1:56). Thats awesome

[@caatrader]

The way they allow you to do unlimited knees is really cheating

[@FFVison]

Ya know what? I just realized something. Those stick ninjas were Naruto running years before Naruto was ever a thing. Just saying.

[@3rooklyn]

Only video game character ever who's rising knee was more powerful than Sagat's Tiger Knee!🤣

[@fetusofetuso2122]

finally someone who has the flying knee down to an art.

[@ch3w837]

I only played this game for that knee kick

[@ariesmercurio1869]

much better than the arcade

[@filouk2]

Splendid...
