I hear that the Souls series probably pulled more from Shadow Tower than King's Field, so that is interesting to think about.

Levels 1 to 4 of Ninja Gaiden are no problem. Level 5 is where I start taking it in the ass.

From the back of the Shadow Tower
cover art:
"THERE ARE LEGIONS OF DEMONS INTENT ON
RAPING YOUR SOUL AND LEAVING THE REMAINS"
That's... that's meant to be a selling point. Oh god, what am I getting my precious pink ass into
this time.

That's the most fucking metal thing I've ever seen on a game's packaging.

Seriously! This should have been the official ad:

As if I'm not batshit insane enough already, this might be the game to finally push me over the edge.

Akumajō Dracula (Famicom Disk System)
Fire Emblem: Ankoku Ryū to Hikari no Tsurugi (Famicom)
Guardian Heroes (Saturn)
Hikari Shinwa: Palutena no Kagami (Famicom Disk System)
Moon Patrol (various)
Ninja Gaiden (NES)

Wonder Boy (Sega Master System)
Zaxxon (various)
Ninja Gaiden is done. It only took 25 years. Holy shit that penultimate boss was driving me insane. Next Summer game is likely Fire Emblem though I may take a break from this Challenge and play a few other things first.
