looks like it's time for a SHINOBI thread.

I finished Revenge of Shinobi with the hardest difficulty settings today. I found it to be pretty tricky.

Shadow Dancer is underrated. It takes the series back to the original formula of saving hostages, but you get to control a canine partner as well. You're also a one-hit-point wonder.

Its the second game but it's taking the series -back- to the original formula?

RoS is the best.
I also finished it on hardest difficulty and without using continues many times.
There's also a way to farm lives on the plane level.

system16 shinobi, shadow dancer system18, MD shadow dancer all follow the same formular.
The super shinobis are just floaty, glorified turds in comparison.

Ah, the undoubted, undeniable Sega mascot. First one is the best one. But all the one-hit-and-you're-dead ones are masterpieces.

That groove!

Nice. Shinobi 3 made good use of the Mega Drive's graphics and sound capabilitites, I'll give you that. It's a nice ride, but arcade style Shinobi and Shadow Dancer games are each one a journey.

I've yet to make that one fucking jump in the harbor level. You know the one. Gonna keep trying though!

I remember the first time I played I thought the game was absolute shit. Something that was graphically impressive at the time and boring to play. I'm glad I gave it a second chance. Kinda love it now.
