This was
Tiger Electronics first non-electronic game... and hopefully their last.
If you were too poor to buy a Nintendo Entertainment System along with a
copy of Double Dragon, you could always invest in the board game version.
It wasn't all that different... you could roll the dice and get weapon
cards which gave you oil drums, rocks, bats, and dynamite to use on your
opponents. Of course, during that time you probably tried not to cry as
you looked at the screenshots of the video game you should have
been playing instead.
But no...
you were stuck with this:
WTF?
Could you
possibly create a crappier looking board for the game? So they took the
box art and a couple of screenshots from the game and plastered them all
over a piece of cardboard. The remaining space on the board looks like it
was done in MS Paint for crissakes! If I spent my money on this board game
and then found this piece of shit inside, I don't think I would be able to
restrain myself from driving out to Tiger's headquarters and stabbing their
sad excuse for a designer in the face.
