Wow this looks great for 1989. Great sprite work and nice animation. Missed out on this one or I simply forget seeing it out in the wild back in the day.
I tend to think of Dynamite Duke as a more serious video game adaptation of GI Joe: A Real American Hero, in which you play as a more badass version of Duke from the cartoon, where he singlehandedly takes on a much more dangerous version of Cobra in an effort to not only destroy the ruthless terrorist organization, but to save his fellow Joes in the process. In my humble opinion, this game probably could have become a GI Joe game if Hasbro, Seibu Kaihatsu, and/or Sega could have come to some sort of agreement. Anyway, wonderful playthough. In my humble opinion, the Genesis/Mega Drive port could have been just as good and long as the original arcade version. The Genesis/MD port was by no means bad to me, but it should have been completely identical to the original arcade version.
Considering that there was a HELL of a lot of video game editing back in the late '80s/early '90s, the time in which the video game industry was ruled predominantly by the Japanese, it's shocking to me at least that Dynamite Duke WASN'T transformed into a GI Joe tie-in for the North American market.
This game explains where Sega’s Dynamite Deka got its name. After Sega lost the Die Hard license, the sequel was named Dynamite Deka (Dynamite Cop 2 in the USA) instead.
+Neo Payne Thanks mate! It's an essential movement if you want to beat the game. Maybe there are better strategies to finish it but this is all I could find out.
***** Thanks Luis! Yes, this game has several difficult parts. I needed some practice in order to beat the last boss. I think the most difficult thing in this game is developing the strategies, more than proper skill.
I wish they had more successful games. Now that they are out of business, MOSS Ltd. currently owns the rights to Raiden. I would for MOSS Ltd. to make a true sequel to this game with more levels and bosses, but retains the same gameplay as the original game as shown in this video.
21:27 Uh, Duke? Thanks for stopping that mad scientist and his army of androids but maybe you shouldn't have detonated that nuclear reactor while it was so close to the city. Just saying.

What a shameless plug at the end. :P
"You beat the game! GIVE US MORE QUARTERS!"
This game never ceases to piss me off, especially that 4th boss. Yet it’s still pretty cool. I could never “git good” at it, though.

I just played this in the Mega drive back in 1992. Awesome game and very classic
Taking me back to when I let this game gobble up my money!

I agree. I wish Seibu Kaihatsu teamed up with Hasbro to do a G.I. JOE game based off of this.

Nobody likes Duke from gijoe though.

Duke dolph lundgren
I'm like ........ JUST DO THE FUCKING SPECIAL MOVE Maskaman, that's all I want to see. lol. FFS. :P
You mean the D special? I just use them as a last resort. I try to beat the games using as few as possible.
You are good! Dynamite Duke is no pushover, i'll tell you what.
***** Thanks Luis! Yes, this game has several difficult parts. I needed some practice in order to beat the last boss. I think the most difficult thing in this game is developing the strategies, more than proper skill.
And yet Raiden was Seibu's only true success.

Great job my masked friend!
has this inspired duke nukehem
i finish with 1 credit too.. .. you can also hold punch (power up) and then press kick for the dynamite kick
Thanks! I didn't know that, but I guess it has the same effect as the dynamite punch.
@MrMaskaman Forever alone si jajaj, totalmente. Pero tú lo has dicho! a él le importa él mismo así que... volverá!
You couldn’t imagine the amount of quarters I wasted on this game.
That was a difficult game for me to play even for the Genesis version I use to have.
The level end bosses are pretty cool.
Who is hironori matsuo? A director?
ah see the influenced of Wild Guns
The best game for me
Mira el lado positivo; ya no tienes que sacar estos videos pa contentar a tú ya sabes quien xDD
this game should be ramaked
Don't use drugs, but killing all the bad guys with a machine gun and destroying helicopters is fine. Wow! This is so 1980's.
