The music on the truck/train levels is one of the best background tunes on any arcade game, an absolute banger. Great choice of a legendary arcade game to cover, Patman!

​@xxHUNGRY4THETRUTHxx It's very similar but not exact. It's just the main melody and the phrases end differently. The rest of the track is completely different. I would call it inspired by, not quite the same thing.

[@roberthunter479]

Played this one a lot in the '80s. It was the loudest game in Aladin's Castle. Robo Cop 2 also showed this arcade game in the background. You can hear the dogs barking in the film. I also believe the game Guacamele 2 makes fun of the game, showing the scene at the beginning.

[@ninji5226]

Ive always wanted a modern remake of this game with a more in depth moveset and modern graphics. It was one of my favorite games as a kid, it was like playing an 80's action movie.

Bad dudes…can still remember playing it and beating it in the arcade…one of the first beat ‘em ups you could go into an arcade with $2-$3 in quarters and beat the game. It was awesome. Loved it on the nes also

I remember I had just seen a couple of The American Ninja movies and after seeing this in the arcade I became obsessed with it. When it came out on the NES we rented it constantly but could never find a store actually selling it.

I played the Amiga Version in my Childhood. My Buddy and me loved all those Ninja Movies of the 80s and often played Ninja in the Garden, so this Game was perfect for us.

[@pbabiesinspace6112]

Me too! I was pretty much the only kid in America with a commodore Amiga 500 and everyone loved my version way more than their crappy nes version ....minus the loading times. Some of those were pretty rough.

Wasn’t the amiga version the one, where the Dudes kept yelling „Hopp! Hopp! Nuhhhhh! Hopp nuuuhhhhh!“??

For some reason the arcade I went to in the late 80s apparently had the Japanese version. I distinctly remember the Dragon Ninja title screen, and the different sound effects. All these years I thought I was crazy and I had just been remembering it wrong! Thanks for clearing that up for me!

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

When I had the Amiga version back in the day I was always disappointed that the voice samples Were missing when everything else as far as audio was pretty close to the original. Little did I know that they were there just from the Japanese version. Pretty cool

[@Ah-ed6ie]

The ending is different too

[@loki.odinson]

One of my favorite games of all time. Me and a friend of mine used to fill this old arcade machine with quarters when we were kids. This is one of the granddaddies of beat-em-ups, and I'm so thankful I got to enjoy it when I was young. When it came out on the NES, we were so excited and rented it from our local Gas City gas station. I remember playing this for hours and hours on his old NES. Good times. Great memories. Thanks again for the excellent trip down memory lane. Your channel is one of my absolute favorites on KZbin. Please keep doing what you're doing. 😊

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

Putting quarters on a machine is something every retro gamer from the early 80s has some sort of familiarity with. I can recall doing it with Pac-Man and the entire marquee was filled with quarters :-) thanks for sharing your members. Thanks

[@mymomsaysimcool9650]

Data East games at that time just had a feel and look that I loved. I played the hell out of this game, RoboCop, and Heavy Barrel at the Gold Mine arcade. I just played Heavy Barrel and BurgerTime this weekend on MAME.

I spent a lot of quarters on this game and was so dang happy when the NES version came out. I always played alone so it didn't bother me on the lack of coop.

[@nashvillan4lif]

My little contribution to the story. I used to 1CC the arcade game back in the day and discovered (at least in the American version) that the score caps at 999,999. I once point pressed this game and was able to achieve this score BEFORE reaching the final boss (which the Dragonninja alone is worth 400,000 points).

[@PatmanQC-Arcade-Documentaries]

I agree, more moves more enemies etc.

[@thedrunkmonkshow]

It's a shame this game never got ported over to the Sega Genesis. Two Crude Dudes was pretty cool but I would have much preferred this original than the sequel. Aside from reducing some of the colors and cutting back the total amount of enemies on screen at once it could have been more than possible. Especially back then as Data East was on a roll with releasing games for the platform in the early 90s. I've read a couple people say the game was past it's prime and too old back when the Genesis was hot. If that's the case they wouldn't have released Joe & Mac 3 years later from it's Arcade release in 1994. But anyway, excellent review as always and thanks for The History of Rampage last week! 😎

To be honest, I don't remember if the game itself was delayed or was just out of stock where I ordered it. But either way, I had a lot of fun with it.

Y'know, I never knew about the charge-up punch until watching this video, heh.

Let my silly little video can also be informative

Loved this game, played the hell out of it. It was actually pretty easy for an 8 year old. Great video as always.

Loved this game in the Arcade and on NES back in the 80's.

The music in the NES port is a LOT more lively than the Arcade original. As for the conversion, it was done by developer Sakata SAS, in which they also did the NES version of Robocop, also published by Data East. Sakata SAS also developed the Super Famicom port of the Neo Geo game, Sengoku.
