which was based on [[Hong Kong martial arts films]]. 1986's ''[[Nekketsu Kōha
Kunio-kun]]'' introduced the [[belt scroll]] format employed extensively by
later games, and also popularized contemporary urban settings, while its Western
localized version ''Renegade'' further introduced underworld revenge themes. The
genre then saw an interval of high popularity between the release of ''[[Double
Dragon (video game)|Double Dragon]]'' in 1987, which defined the two-player
cooperative mode and continuous belt scroll format central to classic beat 'em
ups, and 1991's ''[[Street Fighter II]]'', which drew gamers towards one-on-one
[[fighting games]]. Games such as ''[[Streets of Rage]]'', ''[[Final Fight
(video game)|Final Fight]]'', ''[[Golden Axe (video game)|Golden Axe]]'' and
''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (arcade game)|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]''
are other classics to emerge from this time. In the late 1990s, the genre lost
popularity with the emergence of 3D-polygon technology.

which was based on [[Hong Kong martial arts films]]. 1986's ''[[Nekketsu Kōha
Kunio-kun]]'' introduced the [[belt scroll]] format employed extensively by
later games, and also popularized contemporary urban settings, while its Western
localized version ''Renegade'' further introduced underworld revenge themes. The
genre then saw an interval of high popularity between the release of ''[[Double
Dragon (video game)|Double Dragon]]'' in 1987, which defined the two-player
cooperative mode and continuous belt scroll format central to classic beat 'em
ups, and 1991's ''[[Street Fighter II]]'', which drew gamers towards one-on-one
[[fighting games]]. Games such as ''[[Streets of Rage]]'', ''[[Final Fight
(video game)|Final Fight]]'', ''[[Golden Axe (video game)|Golden Axe]]'' and
''[[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (arcade game)|Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]]''
are other classics to emerge from this time. In the late 1990s, the genre lost
popularity with the emergence of 3D-polygon technology.
