Topic: Shinobi impressions?

Please leave your impressions of Shinobi if you downloaded and played it thank you.

i played it for a minute and i already love it,brings back memories of retro platformer

Download it but having played yet. Never play this game before, so im sure i will like it. Can't wait to see what everyone think of it soon!

I got it this morning, its not as good as the Wii VC Arcade version, but for what it is its pretty awesome. I love how you can select levels and the restore point menus is way better then any of the Gameboy VC menus.

Played it some more and its the usual very hard Shinobi game, but with 4 hitpoints rather then 1. But unfortunatly you can't throw stars, you only have your sword.

i got this game and i think its pretty good but once you get all four shinobi is the game finished or is there more?

In that room (and one other which you may not have seen yet) I needed to rely on a restore point.

I'll beat it properly, I promise! But for the sake of the review, and being so close to the end, I resorted to cheapness. It's a really hard stage, though, and I think that using only one or two restore points to get through is still pretty impressive!

This has surprisingly become one of my favorite VC titles. I played through it the first time with restore points, but I've played it at least 3 times afterwards without using them. Hints: as the structure is set up like Mega Man, if you play the levels in a particular order (using your new Shinobi like powers), it becomes much easier. Also, the final stage is practically a labyrinth. Once you have it figured out, it's not too much of a problem (you don't even have to traverse the room where you double jump with green. The toughest rooms you have to traverse, IMO, are the ones where you have to grapple over spikes with Blue, and where those enemies suddenly drop from the ceiling as Green).

It is one of the best games on the VC and on the Game Gear. Full of action, jumping, and a variety of attack moves.

The soundtrack is catchy, too.
