Lol. If you elbowed all opponents they all went down with single hits. But this guy was even smarter he elbowed them all off cliffs and into holes. Brilliant
@@KyprosEcand let himself get thrown so the bad guys could step on the dynamite 🧨 and get blown up. Then to activate the boss at the end he gets thrown onto the ledge.
Imagine being in a packed arcade the day this came out, and you tell everyone watching you play this new game, you're gonna speed run through this game in 5 minutes 57 seconds. Everyone would have gone nuts after seeing it lol.
Joguei muito Double Dragon!!! A primeira versão saiu no Arcade e depois foi adaptado para os consoles caseiros: Master System e Nes. Fiz um rewiw das vesões de Double Dragon em meu canal de games. Parabéns pela postagem!
So glad that the forest has all of those super convenient bad guy disposal pits all over the place. They're always such a pain to throw out, but this makes it so easy.
Also, there's a potential time save at 2:19. If you walk back to the left while going up and down, this alleviates the lag somewhat and make the two mobs come to you faster. Could possibly save about a second or two. :) I'm doing it on some of my RTA runs.
The last trick Abobo throwing you up at where the final boss is really surprised me... 😮. After all these years (yes, I used to play it at the 80's) I couldn't even imagine that is possible....very good gameplay.
@@paco3523 It stands for Tool Assisted Speedrun. They use computers to unput frame by frame exactly what they want their character to do. Some of these inputs are impossible for humans to do but its fun to see the absolute best way to speedrun a game nonetheless.
En fait il ne joue pas vraiment... " Double Dragon Arcade Speedrun [TAS]" , TAS veut dire Tool-assisted speedrun, il est un peu "aider" on dira pour lui faciliter la tache 😅
@0:36 Imagine punching your way through a brick wall like a roided-up Kool-aid man and some dude in a wifebeater doing his best Mad Max cosplay dodges all your punches like Neo in the Matrix and absolutely wrecks your shit with a three piece and a biscuit.
1:23 lol *"hey LOOK AT THAT! he jumped off that cliff & it looked FUCKIN AMAZING! MY TURN!!"* 5:28 so if you're laying down directly next to a stick of TNT you will be fine but anyone STANDING UP nearby it; they will die; this is good info to know...
It sort of reminds me of a poorly edited movie, like we were supposed to see more footage that showed exactly where the Hell that dude came from but someone in the cutting room screwed up and all we get is a random shot of some schmo falling out of nowhere.
I remember getting thrown up to the balcony at the end and waking up the gun boss but if u drop back down he won’t ever come down and can’t complete the game
Dude, I didn't even know you can kick a thrown knife out of mid air... Damn. @ 2:07 I used to sit there and rumble with that guy... You just kicked him and tossed him like trash, fight over.
Great question. The reason I attack him first is because of how fall mechanics work for adobo. As long as have about ~20HP or higher, they fall forward. This mechanic makes it impossible for me to knock him backwards off the ledge before I reduce his remaining health. I have seen a few hit trade glitches where I can make them fall backwards at full health... but I haven't figured out if I can control it yet. If I can... this fight will get MUCH shorter
Just out of sheer curiosity, what's your best RTA time? :P Also, on RTA runs, for the M3 Green Abobo boss, I use the dynamite thrower dude to kill him. Was that considered for your TAS?
QUESTION: WHY DOES THIS ROM ALWAYS RUN LIKE SHIT? LIKE LAGGY ETC. I HAVE SEEN PPL SAY THE ARCADE RAN LIKE SHIT TOO. THAT MUST BE A MANDELA EFFECT OR SOMETHING BECAUSE I REMEMBER PLAYING IN THE ARCADE AS A KID AND IT NEVER RAN LIKE THIS. SHIT, THE SEGA GENSIS VERSION IS BETTER BECAUSE AT LEAST THE FRAMERATE HOLDS UP AND LOOKS LIKE THE ARCADE.
The tools [MAME emulator] allow me to do things like play the game one frame at a time, and use save states to redo things if mess up. Additional tools [LUA scripts] allow me to save a full playback movie file while I redo, rerecord over and over.. resulting in the movie you see here. I also wrote my own tools to display the positions of all characters on screen, as well as other stats like their health. This is how I perfectly line myself up on the edge of a ledge without falling off. I just walk down until a see a certain X-position value [like X/Y coordinates on a graph]
Tool assisted movies like this are basically research projects. They allow you to create theoretically perfect ways to do things [since you rerecord as many times until you get it right]. Then you can use that research to do things better for human [no tool assistance] speed running

After all these years....can't believe it could have been that easy
After all of these years…I didn’t know we could kick the flying knife!!!!
Well he made it looked easy. Especially those HUGE guys. Those dudes alone cost me some money. It’s payback now. lol.
Lol. If you elbowed all opponents they all went down with single hits. But this guy was even smarter he elbowed them all off cliffs and into holes. Brilliant
😂

Wow, the memories. Not sure I'd ever seen past level 2.
Also, it's amazing how short games like this and Goldenaxe were.
If you, like me ever ran out of coins and watched the attract mode, then you've definately seen the level 3 forest.😉
That triple knife throw on the level 1 Boss was totally OP!
That knife guy only gives up one knife in level 1. Something is a miss. Different settings perhaps?
@@MrCrazyrob666this is done a computer script. It can do glitches people cannot. TAS = tool assisted speedrun.
That finish after Gunboss died...hilarious! They just said: "We're Outta Here!" , and off they went...
With no one to sign their paychecks... Why would they stick around?
Moonwalk out
Or the doorway was like a black hole and sucked them all out.
What’s hilarious is the way elbows are stronger than guns
That was so good. They where like ya not getting paid anymore, but e quit
I love the guy who leaps out to his death after the final boss. Like a dolphin jumping out to say hi in the end scene of a movie 6:25
That guy, surprisingly, never went into the spikes in the first place.
Imagine being in a packed arcade the day this came out, and you tell everyone watching you play this new game, you're
gonna speed run through this game in 5 minutes 57 seconds. Everyone would have gone nuts after seeing it lol.
They just wouldn't have understood what happened.
Grandissimo!!!!👍👍👍👍👍
maybe the owner would set the game setting to ultra hard (one life - per credit)
If you did this back then,you were the coolest kid on the block
Even today, as post-Final Fight games generally have moves and features that lend themselves more to speed running than older games like this one.
Sick run my guy! I was able to beat the game on one quarter back in the day, but nowhere nearly as quickly...well done!
Are you "ASS" from the Chucky Cheese in Fontana, CA??
Its cool how he used the Abobo throws and enemy dynamite to get through that area with a ton of tough enemies.
Abobo?

the best strategy that I have seen.
always loved the noise made when the Abobos sent you flyin.. great run.
I'd forgotten that technique to get thrown up to the boss until I saw you not attacking the ogre and it all came back to me. Nice one.
When the music kicks in coming out of that garage! You know you're on a mission!! 💪
Unbelievable. I remember spending $3-$5 in quarters to finish this in the 80's.
Some vendors only gave you 1 life per quarter and no bonus life if 20k points were met.
@@Finaltouchone1 That sucks.
Depending on how good you were. The most I spent was $1.
@@senecanicholson1090 Not the first time, not even the second...

That's interesting, and definitely worth doing to see the best possible time@@jgfleet
"I killed your boss, so moonwalk the hell outta here!"
"You don't have to tell mee-hee twice"
wow man greatest of all! 👊🏻
くにおくんでもそうだが、ボスがやられると逃げる手下達が人間味あって好き。
ゲーセン版は初めて見たけどこれ基本はザコ全部片付けてからボスが降りて来るのでは？
それがザコ片付ける前にボス階に上がる裏技？を駆使してボス先に倒しちゃったからこんなゾロゾロ逃げる形に😂
It’s somehow comforting to see him stacking Abobo’s in the hole.
Ce mec qui joue est très fort et connaît bien les astuces du jeu.

I like the one who launched into the spikes at the very end, when Billy is walking towards Marian
What a kickass speedrun :D

5:55
Alright, that is literally a next level strategy
It's incredible actually that you can even get up there, let alone that he has collision detection and hitting Willy brings him to life.
@@neat3468 and his gun just pops into his hand because there isn't a model of him without it, I guess
5:59 “Here! I’ll help you get up to get Willy!”
I've been trying to find this game on one of the retro games that are sold online, but I haven't seen it. The arcade version absolutely rocks!
5:55 had me trippin out hard
Double Dragon The Arcade game
WOW.... You completed this quicker than me eating my dinner lmao.....
Brilliant run!
Love this guys game play!
So powerful that the weapons we’d normally need are just a hindrance
That was insanely funny. Where did that guy come from at 6:27?
i was always wondering why the game slows down so much at 0.53. I dont remember being so slow at the arcade.
1:23 lol *"hey LOOK AT THAT! he jumped off that cliff & it looked FUCKIN AMAZING! MY TURN!!"*
5:28 so if you're laying down directly next to a stick of TNT you will be fine but anyone STANDING UP nearby it; they will die; this is good info to know...
Your tactics blow my mind I remember decades ago when stag 3 on the bridge where you fight your clone people had trouble! You don’t even bother.
Damn. Double Dragon God Mode.
Wow!
Your name must be Frank Dux!
It's actually really funny seeing an arcade machine suffering with so much slowdown.
I really like 👍 the dynamite timing
Knocking enemies off ledges, or throwing them off cliffs is so satisfying in this game 😆
The game that started my game addictions. I wish they would remaster this in some way
小さい頃によくやってたダブルドラゴン。
こんな方法でクリアできるなんて驚きです！
I lost all respect of my childhood abilities to beat this game.. Well done
And his entire posse moonwalked themselves out of there.
I will sacrifice a dozen of my finest goats to you O'Lord of the Double Dragon!
6:13 Yay for Billy!
Wow! Nicely done!
When I was a kid, I didn’t think to throw all those different combos.
You're the best around!
6:26 lol
It sort of reminds me of a poorly edited movie, like we were supposed to see more footage that showed exactly where the Hell that dude came from but someone in the cutting room screwed up and all we get is a random shot of some schmo falling out of nowhere.
6:27 下のほうで誰かが身投げしてる。。。
So the evil lair is about a quarter mile from the starting garage? Got it.
I remember getting thrown up to the balcony at the end and waking up the gun boss but if u drop back down he won’t ever come down and can’t complete the game
Old is gold
holy shit, never thought this game can pass like that
Dude, I didn't even know you can kick a thrown knife out of mid air... Damn. @ 2:07 I used to sit there and rumble with that guy... You just kicked him and tossed him like trash, fight over.
If the Boss dies, everyone goes home, yay
Let’s face it if a guy with a machine gun can’t hang what chance do the rest have, lol!
You have done a superb gameplay video here. Mind if I
link it in the Gaming Leaderboards discord I created with some friends?
Arcade magic is something. To finish the game took max. 15 min. But can still playable nowadays
Used to play this in the arcade at an indoor swap meet in early 90's.
I was able to beat this sometimes on 50 cents. Damn moving columns at the end stage. Elbows were the key to the game.
Excelente cuantas veces jugaste .....😅😅😅😅😅😅
Awesome job !
i remember people playing this in the arcades and kept falling into the water at the bridge gap.
Living ...and dying on the edge.... I never beat it back in the arcade days...
0:05 ...Could this game be made today and successful?
5:28 Being thrown on purpose is a another level strategy.
Playing this since 1988, never knew that edge of the ledge trick
Does anybody remember a double dragon arcade game where you fought a big guy at the beginning. I always died there
Double Dragon 2
Such a classic arcade
I saw a little kid beat this on one quarter. Forgot his name but he was real quiet and carried around a lunchbox. That kid was a real wiz.
Those were truly the wonder years 😁
Amazing, congrats on the gameplay! I also created a Double Dragon series on my channel. Liked!
❤ΔΕΝ ΕΧΩ ΧΡΟΝΟ❤
At 4:30. Why did you attack the green guy at first? I thought you can save some time here.

Are you serious???
Only iffy things were those creatures with spears and wall traps.
I didn't know that was very easy and quick I gotta try this
Lol double dragon was so fun , even my sister liked playing it on sega 😂🤷🏼
I like how he knocks Greenbo off the edge at 4:36.

I used to love double dragon
All the hench men quit after the boss fell into the spikes lol
Damn saving coins at the arcade this is how its done.
The best saving is finish it using only elbows...
Walk, elbow elbow, walk, elbow ladder, elbow elbow, jump, elbow
Double dragon in a nutshell 😋
I would love to see a walkthrough of legend of double dragon
i want the game, i need dowloading, howw ??
Fsntastic men 👏👏👏👏
How did you start with 3 men
Amazing run! What does the tool-assisted help with? Also, how do you get close to the edge of buildings without falling off? Thanks
