They were ninja games, but they were kind of slow paced, stiff, and calculated in gameplay. Shinobi III came along a little later in the system's life, and despite not being the first game on the system, it finally kicked the series into the 16-bit era. The highest point of Shinobi III is the control and movement options. Joe Musashi can run, slide, wall jump, double jump, dive kick, ride a horse, ride a surfboard, and more. The levels don't just focus on fighting enemies with your shurikens, but also about navigating the large areas with all these movement options. There are a lot of levels with unique elements and memorable bosses (including a Mechagodzilla boss?). The action is well-paced and fair and there are a whole ton of hidden pickups and ninja abilities to use. It's easily the most solid platformer I've played on the Genesis (I'm not an expert on the system, but I think this still says something), It's a whole lot of fun to play through every time, and just feels like I'm doing a lot of cool things. --- ONLY FIVE CAN LADDER. Sushi, kamikaze, fujiyama, nippon-ichi... <cite>TheKnightOfNee posted [p:950003888] in The Board ... [t:79241274]...</cite> <quote>#45.
