Imagine the play field is like a conveyor belt that you're looking down at from the side. The belt is stopping and going, as you clear enemy waves.

Does this make All shumps Belt-Scrollers?

>>339858178
Except not all games or stages behave like this. Hell, Double Dragon has a couple platformer sections. There are also stages in Final Fight 2 where you travel in the north eastern direction. Calling it a belt scroller then doesn't even make sense. This is a stupid term.

Double Dragon and Golden Axe have the belt scrolling trope for most of the game, though.
