It's better than Ninja Gaiden.
>>12236815nah, it's slow and gay
>>12236815True. Too bad the final level is nearly impossible. Guess I'm never beating it.
>>12236818It's tricky, you just need to know how to lure certain enemies and what will trigger what.
>>12236825It's difficult to learn when the game sends you all the way back if you mess up. I think this game makes a strong case for using save states to at least learn the strategy.
I could just play the ninja star bonus stage all day. That music...>do do dee doo dee doo doo dooooo>do do dee doo doop doo doo
>>12236890Yeah, price of failure is steep since it disables continues. Maybe die until you get a refreshed life count before the point of no return. The final boss isn't as bad as the stage before him once you get him down.
>>12236815Different type of game
>>122368944 stage theme is better, they even (right fully) made it the bonus theme in the MS porthttps://youtu.be/glEoILTAxvs?si=PngUG792QjbI_GmMhttps://youtu.be/IfVq1dWHbA4?si=p5siZAWX3wZYGIbQhttps://youtu.be/mfBpY0Ir3eo?si=BNz1UO8klwuq9vcA
for some reason I always thought that the entire shinobi series was chinese bootleg
>>12238139Well, Shinobi on the NES definitely gives bootleg vibes, especially the music and sound. And it was Tengen so technically it kind of was bootleg I guess?

>>12236815I like doggo shinobi better.
>>12236815It's worse than Rolling Thunder.
>>12236815>It's better than Ninja Gaidenand Shinobi 3.
>>12236815true dat
>>12238121For me, it's BGM 3.https://youtu.be/GnRNAOig6D0?si=aYg5B9d3_63Mr9pL
The arcade game sucks. The Genesis games are good (not Shadow Dancer)
>>12236910Can we agree that disabling continues for games of its time was simply a way to get people to put more quarters into it? It doesn't make me a better playing because IF I feel like starting all over, by the time I get to the part, I've already forgotten the minutia involved in order to stay alive. I got past the first part maybe just ten times in my life.
>>12239918The final boss is incredibly hard if you don't have the power ups that you lose when you use a continue. You'd be wating 30 quarters trying over and over again until you can defeat him. So if it's a way "to get more quarters", it's not a very good one.
>>12239918>Can we agree that disabling continues for games of its time was simply a way to get people to put more quarters into it?lol no, literally forcing the player to get good or forget about beating the game is not how you get him to credit feed. you scrubs need new arguments.
>>12241642>>12243478What do you guys mean? If you want to beat the game, the player is forced to feed it quarters and because the player is sent back to the beginning, the chances of fatigue setting in are high leading to mistakes that will lead to even more parting of coin Washingtons.
