Side Scrolling Beat 'em ups

[Johnny]

Any suggestions on games (preferably for the MD, SNES and/or Saturn and preferably 2D) in the vein of scrolling fighters like Bare Knuckle/Streets of Rage, Final Fight etc etc

I've played most of the similar stuff like Double Dragon but have a couple of JP games for the SNES which I'm having trouble remembering right now that are essentially unashamedly Final Fight clones and I want more!

Alex kidd in shinobi world for the master system is pretty decent.

Theres also a good captin america game for the megadrive thats very good. Very much like streets of rage. The cheesiness in it is quite funny too..

[SuperDanX]

Captain america and the avengers is the name of the megadrive game, it came out on the snes/sfc too.
Captain commando on the snes/sfc is fantasic though ive only played it on the ps1,coming out on the psp soon on the capcom classics collection.
Rushing beat 1,2 &3 i think is the sfc final fight clones you were trying to think of? Not played any of them but i hear only 3 is any good.

Guardian heroes for the saturn

Dungeons and dragons collection for the saturn

sengoku 3 for the neo geo

[SuperDanX]

Batman returns snes/sfc,
Ninja warriors again snes/sfc, and
Undercover cops on the sfc and i think us snes but its pretty rare and expensive.

rival turf on the snes

great game

Was cyborg justice any good?

[JazzFunk]

There's an OK 'Kabuki' side scroller on the MD, as well as Growl/Runark (which is a bit tatty but playable-ish.) Renegade isn't bad on the MS if you've got an MS convertor.

Was cyborg justice any good?

Great graphics but no soul whatsoever and ultra-repetitive. Might be good to play for a few secs on an emu, though.

PS: Mazin Wars on the MD was OK, too.

I vaguley remember growl think i rented it many years ago.

Seem to recall it having quite alot of weapons you can pick up

[muse hunter]

theres a brilliant sailormoon scrolling fighter on the super famicom, i think its called sailormoon s or something similar, you should look it up.

yeah its called runark in Japan

i like it - on one of the japanese taito games and on taito legends 2 in the uk

[Leon Retro]

I can thoroughly recommend Batman Returns for the snes. It's top quality in all departments, and one of the best scrolling fighters ever made!

[eastyy]

Do remember playing a few arcade scrolling fighters

Aliens vs predator

Teenage mutant turtles

armoured warriors

battle circuit

targer renegade (played that a lot for the spectrum)

[Baseley09]

**** that ****...yeah good etc...

You need Golden Fighter

rock out.
