Shinobi 3, Legend Of Kage, and Ninja Spirit are perfect examples of literally making you FEEL like a shuriken throwing badass
>>
>>12624578
Ive never played legacy game but I think ninja spirit is on tg 16 right ???? I love the old ninja games man lol.
>>
Shadow Dancer is better, sorry
>>
>>12624739
The entire series is good but I enjoy shinobi 3 the most in the series
>>
>>12624739
They're all great except for Revenge. That one sucked ass. All the other Genesis and SMS games were great. The SMS one is truly a classic and underrated I feel. Shadow Dancer is extremely similar, basically that game with different levels, better graphics and the dog.

>>12624569
The soundtrack to this game is a master work

This is excellent. But Ninja Gaiden just has more gameplay and challenge than this.
>>
>>12624991
Revenge is the best you pleb
>>
>>12625049
The game where you can only walk at 1 mph?
>>
>>12625016
Ninja Gaiden 1 is pure bullshit. 2 and 3 are great though.
>>
Every game in the series is great and it's amazing how different each one is. The only one that feels derivative of its predecessors is GG Shinobi 2 but it's still a great game.

Too many auto-scrolling stages, ROTS clears
>>
>>12624991
I legit like Revenge (played it like crazy on my 6-PAK cart growing up), but yeah, it's an incredibly stiff game with not much room for error. Took me forever to get the hang of double jumping
>>
>>12625049
Revenge is a poorly designed and uplayable piece of garbage. Completely unlikable aside from the music.

stage 7 is a goddamn nightmare, the first game is nowhere near as difficult
>>
>>12625010
Oh dude the music is so fucking good in this game. Thanks for sharing this.
>>
>>12624569
Can't be perfect with a fucked up auto-melee attack that forces you to whiff.
>>

>>12626984
The melee is the best part of the game

If you can't hear the sound effects in your head while listening to this you didn't beat the game enough times

>>12624569
this and rocket knight are peak sega genesis

RKA is the most overrated Megadrive game. Gameplay is extremely shallow, the move set is shallow, enemy patterns are shallow, but it's hailed by casuals because "OMG SHIT GOES FAST AND IT'S LIKE MY SATURDAY MORNING CARTOONS!!". It's similar to Rondo of Blood, a game with excellent presentation so it seems awesome the first 5 mins to casuals who praise it even though in the case of RKA they never got past the train boss.

Meanwhile Shinobi III is a true masterpiece, in which the presentation actually matches the gameplay, the move set actually leaves a lot of room for getting good and not just feeling like a badass but BE the badass. Never lump these two games together again.

tl;dr Reddit Knight Adventure is peak poseur core and even SNES Sparkster is a better game (this is the point where casuals think I'm trolling because they can't comprehend gameplay depth over presentation).

>>12627161
I see you're one of those midwits who pretends that there's underlying rational thought behind your opinions when in reality all you do is operate on arbitrary vibes like brain dead moron. Then you try to justify your opinions post-hoc by using loaded language and regurgitating played-out catchphrases, but in reality you're not saying anything of substance because your vibes-based opinion is essentially indefensible. You're just signaling because that's all you can do. Don't make another post again, you thoughtless pseud fuck.

>>12627204
He says, while making absolutely ZERO effort to explain why RKA is supposedly so good.
Like, not even trying.
Not one word in that regard.

Pot, kettle, black etc

why do I keep seeing this retarded slander here
>>
>>12627161
>even SNES Sparkster is a better game
If you're going to troll, at least make it convincing. RKA is a much better game than anything the SNES has to offer.
>>
>>12624569
I've always hated how finicky the double jump is. Great game otherwise
>>
>>12627920
ESPECIALLY in the second stage when the game scrolls vertically

Seaport has a few spots where pixel perfect double jump or death are the only outcomes. Very unforgiving and the confrols feel like shit. I remember more sea port deaths than on the final level.

IIRC if you do the multi shuriken attack after your second jump you'll gain a few pixels, helps a lot with those jumps

imo the equivalent in X is harder because you have to do it twice and there is an enemy waiting to rape you on the 2nd jump
>>
>>12624569
excellent soundtrack

That vertical stage use to filter me alot now its a first try
