Title
Quickly becomes stale
An amusing short little arcade beat 'em up, features rather shallow gameplay but makes up for it with great sprite work, music and humourous vignettes after the end of each stage.
However the end stage is brutally difficult as checkpoints are sparse and the last 2 bosses can take you out in 1 hit making the game really frustrating to complete

Title
(I apologize for some mistakes that might happen, english isn't my first language)

Ninja Gaiden is a game with an infamous legacy behind it, with some considering it a classic and must-play of the NES, while others think it's just an old game with old problems - bad enemy placement, fast respawning rate and a lot of knockback.
