All I can say is why?

In particular with Super Double Dragon.

Why ask Why? I definitely look forward to more Double Dragon! Still waiting for DD Gaiden to arrive!

Double Dragon Advance enjoys a great reputation among fans. It's still frequently believed to be the best Double Dragon game overall.

But either way, at this point, it seems like they're releasing everything they possibly can for the license, like they did for the Kunio games.

Which while surprising I get, SDD/RDD on the other hand was rushed through development. Leading to the North America’ & European versions of the game having problems that the Japanese version which was released a few days later didn’t have. There was also content that was meant to be in the game but wasn’t in the final version of either game.

Checking my notes they haven’t rereleased all the Kunio Kun games with a lot of them still having yet to properly be localized.

That new Kunio game arrives in October. There is on online component with Double Dragon characters. I have been playing Double Dragon Gaiden tonight and it is a lot of fun. Maybe there can be a better new movie too.

Just recently, there's been news going around that allows retro games like Double Dragon to be played legally on PC and now Xbox
- through retro cloud gaming service Antstream Arcade:

I wish they'd release the Kunio collection on PC. Currently it's only on console.

It’s actually a rerelease of a 3DS game but still.
