Not a cheat as such but I was wondering if there was a way of creating a file I could drop into the DDII rom folder where those stupid damn controls could be corrected, in other words regardless if you face left or right the punch and kick buttons remain the same instaed of switching?!,...a so called HACK I guess.
DD1 was perfect but DD2 is a pain in the arse where the controls are reversed whenever you turn round, It's such a headache, I don't understand what the creators were thinking to mess with the controls like that,...is there a way to undo the damage?!

Re: Double Dragon II
Why not a cheat?
Quickly knocked up this ROM cheat, only tested it for about 10 seconds and it seems to work. Might not work on later levels so you'll need to check.
