"Are you a bad enough dude to save
the president?" Yes,Yes the saying is a classic, but
what about the game? This was a pretty big arcade game
back in the day (even on the cover of the game it says
"top arcade hit" go figure...), so of course it
got a port onto the NES. The basis of the game is the
army hired two guys off the street that looked buff to go
and save the president. So you have to go through various
places to try and find and save the president. Its one of
the more cheesy game plots on the NES.

"Those fools thought they could port bad dudes to
the Nes, they were wrong Bwahahaha, Bwahahaha!"The
graphics are OK. In fact this is one of the most average
looking games on the NES. All the sprites are fairly done
and there is some flicker but overall the graphics are
riding the thin line between sucking and being average.
See watch, sucking/average.

I'm sorry but I love the music in this game. I just love
it. Plain and simple. I don't know why I love it, as a
matter of fact I can't think of one song right now. But
everytime I listen to it, it gives me that tingly feeling
down my back. Listen and judge for yourself on this
controversial topic. As for the sound effects there the
typical stuff for a beat um'up game. Except for the
unforgettable battle cry at the end of each level
"I'm Bad!"

This game is just another average beat um'up. You do get
to pick who you want to be at the beginning either
striker or blade but they're both the same. You can do a
spin kick and a power punch which are also pretty cheesy
looking. I do have to give it originality points for cool
bosses. The first boss even got his own game, Karnov. The
last boss is way to simple though. He would give shame to
the name Bad Dudes, if it had a reputation.

This game is really easy. To tell you the truth this game
is a no brainer (Whoopee, big surprise). My first grade
cousin and I always used to have a blast playing it
mainly for that reason alone. After you beat it there is
absolutely no reason to play through it again.Thus the
replay value is low, BAM!
