Favorite Ninja Game

[Pulsar_t]

Shinobi PS2 was among the few games that made me throw the gamepad at the wall in utter frustration

Shinobi III will always remain my #1..



Hagane is pretty good too. Could have benefitted from some Blast Processing™ however

why.... oh wait, they're called something else arent' they? I was actually thinking the other day (I'm a HUGE fan of the games) about how the Japanese version of the games must have a different sprite for Michaelangelo, since they can't show nunchucks.

EDIT: hmm. I may be wrong. I can't find screens, but here's the cover to the Japanese version of Fall Of The Foot Clan; nunchucks and all.

hmm, apparently I'm confusing what I've read... Here's something I found on wiki referencing what I was thinking of, but it talks about UK not Japan:

In the UK, TMNT was released under the name Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles (TMHT). This was due to the controversy surrounding ninjas and related weapons such as nunchuks at the time. The intro sequence was heavily edited because of this, replacing the word ninja with hero or fighting, using a digitally faded logo instead of the animated blob, and removing any scenes in which Michelangelo wields his nunchuks, replacing them with random clips from the show.[6]
