It looks meh at best.

Honestly, I don't know what they are waiting for a new  Streets of Rage or a Final Fight that take inspiration of the latest Batman games. Rocksteady has pretty much nailed how a Beat'em'up should be done in 3D.

Absolutely not. Not Even close. the Beat'em up genre is actually an extension of the fighting game genre. They're pretty much half brothers in core design. Batman shares nothing in common with fighting games and more with games like Zelda or Okami. Not to mention... Batmans battle system is fun but it does have depth of combat engine for a game born from the fighting genre. If Streets of Rage is converted into 3D it should actually play similiar to: Yakuza:

or Spikeout:

 

I think we'll have to disagree. While it's true that Batman doesn't have many combos, most of the time it's just pressing X to hit and ocasionally B and then X (360 controller), it's still nothing like Zelda. But it's fun and more importantly, challenging, 2 very important aspects for any beat'em'up.

As for if it should be more like those 2 games you say, I can't see the videos so I can't judge them.
