Rage of the Dragons

Rage of the Dragons is a tag-team Fighting Game released for the Neo Geo in 2002. It was originally intended to be a sequel to the Double Dragon fighting game released for the Neo-Geo in 1995, but Evoga [the developers] couldn't get the rights to the characters, so the game became more of a homage to the series. This is most evident when one looks at Shotos Jimmy and Billy Lewis, who are essentially expies of the similarly named Lee brothers from the original Double Dragon games. Sub-boss Abubo also resembles Abobo from the first game.

This game provides examples of (will need edits later):

 * Big Bad: Johann
 * Captain Ersatz: The Lewis brothers and Abubo.
 * Crossover: Four characters (Jimmy, Lynn, Elias and Mr. Jones) appear in another game produced by Noise Factory, Power Instinct Matrimelee. Due to licensing issues, they were left out from the PS2 port.
 * Shout-Out: Alice's attire and very name have connections to Alice In Wonderland and its author, respectively.
 * Dynamic Entry: Unlike most tag-team games, the character rushing into the battlefield, instead of flying in from the side of the screen, runs up to the opponent and delivers a standing attack.
 * Fighting Shirtless Match: Pepe in battle.
 * Wrench Wench: Pupa
