Double Dragon 3: The Rosetta Stone - Just Bad Games #shorts

it's just bad doesn't even cover it

I wonder if the developers of double Dragon three knew what the future could hold?

it's a shame we haven't gotten more shorts like this, these are great

This is new news? Duh 😂

I played that.

Thank God for MAME emulators.

Beating EA early to the game

The first ever pay to win

somehow i should've expected that the medium designed to crank money out of poor kids who don't know any better had the first instance of one of the mechanics used to crank money out of poor kids who don't know any better /gen

This is truly a capcom/ea/Ubisoft/take two moment

Yeah, microtransactions ain't new.
We used to hit the arcades in the 80's and 90's, and the reason these old games were legendarily hard is because they were absolutely pay-to-win.

I wish technos would remake this game and make it good!

Oh well, at least we can possess the chances for getting double dragon into smashy bros

And here I was hating the NES version 😂

I don’t see how this is a problem, it seems like it would be a good thing.

Well, you pay to play arcade machines in the first place. Arcade machines are the worlds first example of "pay to win". Happen to die? Just put in another four quarters and you get another chance!

Except Haunted Castle, that one...that one didn't for some reason.

What if we use MAME?

Lol😂

Ground zero…….I didn’t even think this went that far back

And people think game companies trying to bleed as much money out of us as possible was a recent development.

So this is the first micro-transaction and the first P2W game

just saying, maaaybe don’t have money ghost do the shorts if you ever do one again.

Wow! I wouldn’t thought DD3 Arcade would be worse than its NES Port! 😳

When I read that title I thought that was just ya'lls praise for it, not the actual subtitle to a game where two bros beat up a street gang to save their hot girlfriend.

Is it possible theres a developer console of some kind that can disable this? I know some games have settings the owner can tweak

That voice. Ha ha ha

I just want the monetary ghosts back...

Perfectly reasonable to have microtransactions nowadays... NOT

What about gauntlet?
Or is that more of a subscription service.

DD3 is kind of awful all around tbh

I think Gauntlet 2 had a similar mechanic

M I C R O T R A N S A C T I O N S

You mean pay to win

Will there be a full video on this soon?

too abd YT is too picky with names due to Ad's and Sponsorships but what I would name this as IT's just Crap as a Short series but sadly due to todays YT Climate that won't fly anymore. but great content Rerez :)

why does this sound like somebody doing a bad impression of Rich Evans

EA:write this down

Good thing arc systems is making
Something good out of this.

This is the best double dragon 3

I N S E R T T H E C O I N .

Damn, the evill has been with us since the 90's, crap

Microtransactions: The Origin Story

I honestly think the ghosts are cute.

I remember this game as being horrible to play.

Sonic and Knuckles: Early DLC
Double Dragon 3 Arcade:

This game must be how microtransactions were born.

So it was Technos to start the microtransaction thing!?

EA: you know how we can make this better
EA employees: add day one DLC And put everything behind a pay wall
EA: good good, but is there any way to make this more tedious?
EA employees: add loot boxes, and make it pay to win
EA:perfect

You think EA was bad
