Let's all remember once upon a time we used to pay .25 per play which would last us like 2 min per play lol
Holy hell. Just watched that video and it was simply "How much nostalgia can we cram into one single game."

From Street Fighter to Double Dragon to things like Rad Racer and After Burner. I feel obligated to buy this.
This looks a LOT more like Streets of Rage influenced. The soundtrack sounds like it came straight from it.

But then you'll miss the chance to give the developers something meaningful for their hard work nod

Trailer for those who need convincing: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=iyYJNKdh7Ic

Looks so 80's epic. Maybe Rambo will make a cameo.

Any thoughts on a beat-em-up like this but a tad less violent for little kiddos?

Maybe Scott Pilgrim Vs. the World? Granted, it's still people beating each other up, but it's much more cartoonish about it.

Scott Pilgrim would also be my first recommendation. It's an Ubisoft game so it regularly goes on sale. I wanted to also give you a heads up that there's a new TMNT game called Shredder's Revenge coming out this year that looks awesome, and I personally can't wait to play it with my kids.

Another awesome beat'em up albeit not kid friendly is Streets of Rage 4 - that way exceeded my expectations.
