** ''Force'''s stripped-down console port ''MARZ'' also played up the two-on-two gameplay, not only by having a couple of [[Quirky Miniboss Squad]] Dual (and Trio) Bosses, but also by having [[That One Boss|Those One Bosses]] from other games in the series ([[Wave Motion Gun]] -bearing [[Military Mashup Machine]] Z-Gradt and [[Lightning Bruiser]] Jaguarandi) Assault you in pairs while teamed up with exact copies of themselves.

* Interesting variant in ''[[Lufia]] II: Rise of the Sinistrals''. The boss of the Sword shrine is a pair of [[Evil Clown]]s who fight separately but automatically revive when you kill them. Once you've beaten them both once, your party works out they're reviving each other so you split your 4-character party into pairs to fight them both at the same time, played out as 2 consecutive boss battles.

* Juli and Juni in ''[[Street Fighter Alpha]] 3''. This pair of M. Bison's underlings must be fought by some characters before being able to fight Bison himself. While both of these minions are little more than color swaps of of Cammi, this is a very hard fight. The pair will attempt to surround the player, usually ruining any chance to do a special move or combo. Even worse, doing ''anything'' requiring pushing back on the D-pad (including blocking, which is already difficult because you can't block from two directions at once) is difficult in this fight, because the "back up" command does not recognize left or right, it defines "back up" as "back away from your opponent". With two opponents attacking from both sides, the controller often confuses Back Up with Move Forward, resulting in the move simply not working.
