ROUND TWO, MATCH THREE

Double Dragon (NES)

Round 1: defeated Super Mario 3D Land

Double Dragon is a 1987 beat 'em up video game developed by Technōs Japan and distributed in North America and Europe by Taito. The game is a spiritual and technological successor to Technos' earlier beat 'em up, Nekketsu Kōha Kunio-kun (released outside of Japan by Taito as Renegade), but introduced several additions such as two-player cooperative gameplay and the ability to arm oneself with an enemy's weapon after disarming them. Double Dragon is considered to be one of the first successful examples of the genre, resulting in the creation of two arcade sequels and several spinoffs, as well as inspiring other companies in creating their own beat 'em ups.

VERSUS

Golden Sun (GBA)

Round 1: defeated Mike Tyson's Punch Out!!

Golden Sun is the first instalment in a series of fantasy role-playing video games developed by Camelot Software Planning and published by Nintendo. The game is notable for certain distinctive game elements, such as the use of special "Djinn" that empower the player and can be used against enemies. Golden Sun's story follows a band of magic-attuned "Adepts" whose purpose is to protect the world of Weyard from alchemy, a potentially destructive power that was sealed away long ago. The game was highly praised by critics; IGN's Craig Harris said that Golden Sun could "arguably be one of the best 2D-based Japanese RPGs created for any system."
