Tokyo beat down review
Reception
Tokyo Beat Down received "mixed" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. Ray Barnholt of 1UP described the game as "deliberately archaic" but worthwhile for gamers who "have a fondness for action games past." Michael Cole of Nintendo World Report cited its "fairly fluid" combat and praised its "stilted, tongue-in-cheek cop drama dialogue" as making "Beat Down more memorable". On the other hand, Austin Light of GameSpot found "the crazy story and absurd characters...entertaining,...they aren't worth mashing your way through hours of poor combat to see." In Japan, Famitsu gave it a score of two sixes, one four, and one six for a total of 22 out of 40.
