I LOVE that part that when it goes to "Here's a medal for your victory" is the moment you get the achievement for beating the game. Its was so cool when I saw that :D
I wonder if the developers programmed that because usually you get an Achievement as soon as you reach the first seconds of the credits. This part of the lyrics was pretty far in.
@@Cappytain101 well yeah but i think he meant specifically this crazy artstyle plus skullmaggedon was clearly setting up a sequel, and he literally says "billy and jimmy" at the end so he didnt mean the river city girls
Outside Xtra brought me here and I have to say this is the most epic villain song I've ever heard in a video game. And I don't even play Double Dragon, but seems like I'm missing out when there's Skeletor... I mean Skullmageddon probably being the highlight in the game.
I gotta say that Neon really is one of my favorite DD games. Finally they took a humorous approach in a nod to the 80s. They could have tried to be all serious and bad ass about it, but why not humor, as long as your intention was nostalgia anyway? Really underrated little gem here.
i honestly feel bad for fighting him now.......maybe i could offer to be his singing agent? i mean my bro was just gonna fight me for the girl anyways so whats the point of beating on some other dude as well?
@@BobMarley-vj3ol That or have Marian as the hero of the story. Apparently she becomes a REALLY powerful sorceress in this game.... I mean she's the one who transports Billy to the moon to fight Skully. And that punch... pretty sure that'd break several bones on a normal person...
@@Kaistickmin Yup. If you look closely enough during the staff roll, you can see that the game director voiced Skullmageddon. His name is Sean Velasco.
25 years. For 25 years Marian had to deal with a never-ending cycle of getting punched in the stomach, kidnapped, and occasionally murdered (depending on the continuity). For 25 years rage roiled within her. She wanted payback for every single cheap shot she had to take. Unfortunately for our skellebro Skullmaggedon, River City Girls 2 wouldn't be out for another decade.
Outside Xtra brought me here. No joke I was curious about the end credits of this game after watching their "top ten bosses that just had to sing" XD. By the way damn this song is catchy. Edit: omg 91 likes. Thanks guys :). Didn't know my comment would be so popular
The only crime is that this was not their first time beating him. The line where he goes "Here's a medal for your victory" is when the achievment/trophy pops for beating him.
The fact that RCG2’s ending is basically a reverse of this ending too (they launched Sabu upwards with a similar song playing). Considering Marian was in that game it probably wasn’t a coincidence
He's coming back guys. (A new Double Dragon got announced today! Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons! Also Marian is playable in this game like River City Girls lol)
I'd be more concerned with Marion breaking her arm under X-hundred pounds of falling Skullmageddon, immediately followed by him falling on top of her anyway because he has to land _somewhere._ I hope she's drinking lots of milk and doing 200 push-ups a day! 😶
People keep comparing Skullmageddon to Papyrus from UNDERTALE, please stop...This game came out back in 2012, UNDERTALE came out 3 years after this...And on top of that, this guy is based on He-Man's Skelletor...I apologize for this rant but I'm getting sick of seeing this comparison on most (Not all mind you) comments on this awesome song...
Hard disagree, it picks up again with a vengeance at 2:40 and then finishes with the true highest point right at the end starting with "Got to my palace at last". Best part of the song is near the end.
You gotta admire a villain who can keep such an upbeat attitude even as he goes hurdling into the void. Someone get this guy a record deal!
Heck yeah!
Make skeleton a star!
Agree
*Skullmageddon needs a rematch, damnit*
*I need more of him singing*
After he recovers from that 1000ft nut punch.
"I'LL BE BACK"
It is now 2019 and he IS back. Running a pawn shop in River City Girls.
Frankly I'd call it a step up
While the Lees are running dojos.
I enjoy the fact that River City and Double Dragons are in the same universe.
and he’s back again, on the Switch
Maybe the way he found to antagonize Billy and Jimmy is by owning store to compete on the market

@@Charjune that HAD to have been intentional

Best use of an achievement in any game I've ever seen to this day
*When Kars gets yeeted into the void*
Joseph rocked his world.
@@neptune9647 Wamuu rocked his friend
Eventually...he started singing
eventually, Kars stopped singing
Is that a JoJo Reference?
I hope Double Dragon Neon gets a sequel one day. Not gonna lie, Skullmageddon was the best boss I've ever fought.
River City girls, that's all I'm going to say...
@@Cappytain101 well yeah but i think he meant specifically this crazy artstyle plus skullmaggedon was clearly setting up a sequel, and he literally says "billy and jimmy" at the end so he didnt mean the river city girls
@@god47398 he probably gives them ridiculously over stacked prices at his store. Thereby antagonizing them lmao
@@radicalgear391 i know this old as heck, but his prices are actually somewhat fair, he was selling a gold cat for 1 mill but for only a 5 buck profit
@@copyright-hv6en true, but for the Lee brothers I imagine he doubles his prices at least. Due to the events of neon.
what a fucking legend. Fall in peace, Skullmageddon
I honestly think this guy is better than the Main characters. Put this skeleton man on a Broadway Stage!
I would honestly watch 3 hours of this guy singing
Finally, I’m not the only one who thinks that
That nyyyeeeh just reminds me of Skeletor
That nyyyeaahh sounds like Walugi
"i remember this game, and this song...im forgetting something...near the end i think..."
a couple seconds later
*nut punch*
"ooo, there it is"
Well since he is a skeleton it's kinda more like a pelvis punch.
Bob Marley well in the song he does call himself a "magical skeleton" so there could be a bit more under that armor
@@Tailzy26 BRUH
I was glad to see Marian had the same idea I did. I finished him with a One Inch Punch to the nuts everytime

Catchiest end theme song in recent years. This game would be great on the Switch. Wish they'd port it.
0:10
@Paul They Just Did.Your Wish Came True.
@@Multipak34 It's a Christmas Miracle!

Well, it's catchy because it's just the title screen song from the OG Double Dragon remixed and given lyrics
''here's a medal for your victory''

I'm holding back tears, this video is just so powerful.
At least he can be upbeat here, and I love villains who don’t just see his henchmen as pawns, so at least he threw them some respect at the end.
😭
@@LordCloudStrifewhat’s with the tears, man? It’s been a while since I’ve watched this vid.
You know, this makes me reconsider who's the REAL villain in this game...certainly not my boy skullmageddon.
He's an antagonist not pure evil
He's very funny
All he wanted was a date anyway...
I love how Skullmageddon parodies Skeletor from Filmation’s take on “He-Man.” It also happens that he was voiced by the game’s director!
Wait really?
@@Kaistickmin Yup. If you look closely enough during the staff roll, you can see that the game director voiced Skullmageddon. His name is Sean Velasco.

"I'll get you Billy and Jimmy!"
*CRUNCH*
I don't like the coupling of a nut punch and the word "crunch".
Then, he was reborn as Waluigi. Doomed to never have the girl. Always lose. Never be loved :(
*Sobbing loudly*
And Papyrus. NYEH HEH HEH!!!
And, at least in Brawl in the Family, he retained his musical talents!
And not appearing in smash
But be dame good at tennis
His soul was split into two, the first part reborn as waluigi and the other was papyrus. Both were failures just like him.
Gotta love that Marianne is the one that got to deal the final blow.
I wonder if this is where the inspiration for Papyrus from undertale came from
I needed to hear this song again. Been one of those days you know
I love how the trophy pops right when he sings "here's a medal for your victory"
never noticed
1:23 GET THE LIGHTERS OUT, EVERYONE!
ok... ok... hear me out... double dragon neon singalong... on ice...
I like to think the band playing is called William and the Williams.
It might be
William and the Willams ft. Abobo
Williams at the mike, Abobo at the piano, Linda at the drums and Williams at the guitar and bass.
@@CrimsonNick171 "That's Abobo on drums".

I LOVE this song! Skullmageddon is such an underrated villain.
They finish the game just on the nut shot..u know what will happen with that epic ending..lol! nice job there double dragon franchise!
Okay I have an idea
A trio song with skullmageddon Skeletor and Papyrus. What do ya think?
Yes.
Now my life will only be complete if I have a album of those three singing.
i need it
Awesome combo
As long as it's sans Sans references.
The only crime is that this was not their first time beating him. The line where he goes "Here's a medal for your victory" is when the achievment/trophy pops for beating him.
That beautiful lunatic rhymed Marion with Girlfri-e-end.
Our world is undeserving of this gift from above.
Honestly, I low-key want to see a group like Voiceplay do an accapella version of this song.
Falling right into the void
Got me thinkin' that I was destroyed
And I'm hoping that you have enjoyed....beating me dooooown
3:33 damn that's a powerful punch she's got
I want a happy life for him..
Me too
Maddness Wonderland your plee wasn't very effective...
Yes now he can live forever
Riiiiiiight 😒
Well I mean no offense
Best. Outro. Song. Ever

This game just oozes 80s stuff and I love it.
Oooo... That "FATALITY" at the end though... Poor skull-dude. No kids for him.
Skullmageddon’s pretty chill once you get to know him. Bro sold me a cat statue for a killer price. Said it was real gold too!
he a nice guy on River City Girls
@@LordCloudStrife even in neon he cares for his lackeys
@@isauldron4337

This is how every videogame should end
Casey Keith with a punch to the pelvis? Or a great song? Or both!
@@DoctorBisharp both is good
I admire this dude so much
How is this game not any more popular?
*SKELETOR IS THAT YOU!?*
THIS is the Double Dragon 4 of my Childhood.
I loved this game so much
Darn you, Bimmy and Jimmy
That's BILLY!
That one boss fight against bimmy and jammy the mistranslated mutant was such a cool reference to that lol
The song is epic, and then his accent just ties it all together! Lol
I swear when I heard this ending I lost my shit😂🤣🤣. One of the best Double Dragon games ever. They really need to make another one
Me and my friend played this game it was AWESOME
He's coming back guys. (A new Double Dragon got announced today! Double Dragon Gaiden: Rise of the Dragons! Also Marian is playable in this game like River City Girls lol)
At least he landed in river city
And this is how papyrus came to earth.
You stop this, young man.
Yeah
Slelatar
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, he did not lie. He DID return in RCG, just not as a bad guy anymore.
He grew and changed as a person
3:34 pelvic punch
Anyone else want to see Sean Velasco voice Papyrus in some Undertale related thing?
Gamemaster Anthony I do
Gamemaster Anthony hell yeah
That would be perfect for Undertale. And it would be my dream!
K, Skeletor, have fun with that.
I'll be back! Ends falling down, and ends up getting an uppercut punch on the balls...decided against coming back ever!
Why do I imagine this guy wearing a tuxedo singing this
I looked this out from "Outside Xbox"
Same
YSSSS!!!!!
HAHAH! Cara que viagem essa musica do final! Estou começando a olhar esse jogo com outros olhos!
It’s a modern bohemian Rapsodi
when double dragon neon 2 is released, you could say skullmageddon would have a.... BONE to pick with billy and jimmy.
He just had to sing... He could have just teleported or something
Monolaging
You mean skelaport
who knew Skeletor was a good singer
Instead of kidnapping he shoulda sang to her XD
Instant win
the buildup of speed skullmagedon gained falling for that long would be so insane to stop him with a punch would be impossible
I'd be more concerned with Marion breaking her arm under X-hundred pounds of falling Skullmageddon, immediately followed by him falling on top of her anyway because he has to land _somewhere._
I hope she's drinking lots of milk and doing 200 push-ups a day! 😶
I never been happyer to be abel to do a skeletor voice.
I guess skeletons just like saying nyeh heh heh
Unironically good
Oh Skeletor lol~ xD
The one comment that isnt about papyrus XD
How is he falling in space?
IDKWhatI'mDoing low orbit?
Very carefully.
Or does it make perfect sense,but you are not understanding it.
Game logic.
It's called magic

We don’t care. He sounds like Papyrus and that’s just that
I wish this got a sequel.
Really hope RCG2 gets us a sequel to Neon.
Hes back bitches!
Oh head up the Double Dragon Neon got a console update and same for Scott Pilgrim vs The World the game. For Switch, PS4 and Xboxone.
i want more skullmagedon songs because it's realy loud and he'll be back!!!
3:23 Nyeh heh heh
The high point of the song is right at the beginning, which is a shame.
Still, it keeps me hitting repeat...
I tend to agree. The song seems to lose momentum once it goes into the solo, and never really recovers.
Hard disagree, it picks up again with a vengeance at 2:40 and then finishes with the true highest point right at the end starting with "Got to my palace at last". Best part of the song is near the end.
Like a Skeletor
Skeletor + Papyrus = skullmageddon
Skullmageaddon sounds like Broadway Papyrus.
Hes's ones of the bosses that I feel that he should win
my man got the bars
Skeletors cooler brother.
Poor guy lost his girlfriend, his gang, his base and his balls.
The VO really reminds me of skeletor i really want to know
Skullmageddon: [before death] Presented...by...[Explosion] WAAAAYFOOORWAAAARD!!!!
What a bop
Why isn't this song on spotify?
