Ol' Skool Brawlerz

"Some" of my fav punch-a-tons, kick-a-thons and slash-a-thons in no particular order.

Ninja Warriors Once Again
Ninja Warriors Once Again
Good remaster of a good remake of a pretty bare arcade game.
Kurohyou: Ryuu ga Gotoku Shinshou
Kurohyou: Ryuu ga Gotoku Shinshou
Delinquent protag in a Yakuza game. Pretty cool.
Yakuza 2
Yakuza 2
Isn't as crazy as Spike Out above but it's simple enough and engaging to fool around plus a pretty cool story. Exploration is the key for the REAL big dick brawling.
Beat Down: Fists of Vengence
Beat Down: Fists of Vengence
I can customize my character to look like that one guy from Nickleback
Ninja Gaiden Black
Ninja Gaiden Black
I haven't played the Ninja Gaiden Chuuuuu doooe for 360 so I'll put the less coked up first game here for now.
Urban Reign
Urban Reign
One of the more polished brawlers mechanically. Depth doesn't necessarily come from how many times you punch a dude. Brutally hard but satisfying. Multiplayer fun as fuck.
Spikeout: Battle Street
Spikeout: Battle Street
Coke-fiend game with more characters
The Gladiator: Road of the Sword
The Gladiator: Road of the Sword
China's finest offerings.

Music is jammin'.
Dynamite Cop

Another Coke-fiend classic on dreamcast.

Ryo, what are you doing on that boat?
SpikeOut: Digital Battle Online
SpikeOut: Digital Battle Online
Created by a coke-fiend
Final Fight 3
Final Fight 3
Controls are the best of the series and introduces Street Fighter 5's Lucia Morgan.
Guardians: Denjin Makai II
Guardians: Denjin Makai II
One of the most polished 2D mashing-a-thons on arcade. Looks nice and plays nice. Plus, lots of dudes to choose from.
Shin Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-kun: Kunio-tachi no Banka
Shin Nekketsu Kouha Kunio-kun: Kunio-tachi no Banka
The protags of River City Girls get shot.
The Peace Keepers
The Peace Keepers
Japanese version better.
Alternate paths out the ass and vary per character. You get a color editor for all players and enemies. Music is nice too.
Golden Axe III
Golden Axe III
Same deal as Peace Keepers with alternate paths. But not a single cop in sight.
Streets of Rage 2
Streets of Rage 2
Bonafide classic. Upon further inspection, music isn't as cool as 1's.
River City Ransom
River City Ransom
Coolio rpg brawler
Double Dragon II: The Revenge
Double Dragon II: The Revenge
NES version better
