Double Dragon seemed to make a look that lots of games copied very well. Jaleco looked like they took how Capcom did with Final Fight and copy pasted.

Are you referring to the Neo-Geo Double Dragon? If so, then I do see some similarity though. The beat-em-up Double Dragon is a classic by itself. Final Fight is unique in its own way. Overall, I do not disagree with your statement though.

I meant the classic NES actually. I didn't intend to oversimplify and deny that all these games do probably have their own individual merits and advances in gaming, because I can't say every side scroller is a Mario clone. I guess maybe it was the streets look and being about mob or gang on the streets stuff felt similar on top of beat em up style.

Hahahaha, that is so true. That has always been the theme though. I like this comment
