Title: The Tube Sock Rumble
Post by: BrentRadio on November 07, 2007, 12:40:55 am

It's the kid from Tron (in blue) against the kid from the Time Out Tunnel pics (in red).

Give it a second to load and turn on your speakers...

All Double Dragon's have a vertical monitor. And a horizontal monitor.

It's designed so you can rotate the monitor in about 2 minutes. And with the drawer on the bottom front of the cab, you can change the board in 20 seconds. Very cool cab to own.

Check out these pics if you want to see how it's done.

I play ALL of these games in the Double Dragon cab.

That poor kid playing the AD looks like his mom is reaming him out, too... and like she never feeds him.  Someone get that kid a sandwich.

yeah.. both those kinds are bean poles!  I was a skinny kid but damn..  My grandfather used to call me E.T.  (Edward Toothpick) :)  He also said to put to peas in my back pockets so I'd have an ass.   God only knows what he would say about those two kids!

Maybe the socks are structural.  Roll them down and the kid falls over.
