4Double Dragon is a portable version of the arcade beat'em up. This game has you fighting through four stages that include boss battles at the end of each stage. A two player versus mode is also included however the main game is single player only. The portable version of Double Dragon is a frustrating mess with slow gameplay and annoying platforming. It looks nice but having to platform on moving conveyor belts where jumping requires pressing two buttons at the same time is frustrating. Unlike the NES game you start with all of your abilities at the beginning.
