I added the same game with different spellong since it did not show up in the search result. Added the alternative spelling (that is used by quite a lot of sites) to the aliases, my page can go

The NES and Arcade Double Dragons were pretty darn different. While the arcade game was a straight up 2 player beat 'em up, the NES version added an RPG-like level system, removed the 2 player simultaneous play (except for in the special vs. mode), additional moves, fewer enemies on screen at a time (only 2 iirc and they had to be the same type of enemy), there were additional stages, the second stage had a new boss and I'm sure there's more.

I really love those Arcade -> NES translations that resulted in completely different games. The Capcom stuff is the most notable (especially Strider and Bionic Commando), but there were some other memorable ones (such as Double Dragon). What a terrific little system.

I'll throw up a quick list for now, but it's really going to need a fresh playthrough along with the arcade one before I can hammer out anything really thorough. Might be a nice change of pace after I finish my current game (Tales of the Abyss).
