i have never played this game at the arcade or in mame before, however i will take a look at it tomorrow and report back (note im only limited to what a ready compiled mame version allows... im no dev, coder, hacker, etc .. if i was i would be off hacking double dragon 2 so that the controls are like double dragon 1 instead of the existing 'oh i just turned around and didnt mean it' deranged system...)
