Love it and I will even give the final maze stage a pass but that harbor jump is bullshit.

>This game still has a cool as fuck intro.
Insanely cool especially for the year it debuted. Very impressive.

Good collection anon. Doesn't look like you are missing too many... what's this? No RoS? For shame anon..

I grew up playing Shinobi 3 and Revenge but was always firmly in the 3 > RoS camp. Over the years RoS grew on me to the point I was questioning my ranking. Last night I popped in 3 for the first time in awhile and... It's over Return of the Ninja Master bros.... Lots of great things going for 3 but overall RoS is the better game. Thanks for reading my blog. Oh, and Ninja game thread.

If we are not counting arcade then you win anon. Great choice!

>Shinobi squabbling is about as gay as Castlevania squabbling,
While it can delve into some lowdown shitposting nothing here holds a candle to the continuous non-stop castlevania threads we have on /vr. If I had to rank them in order it would go:
1. Castlevania threads
2. 16 bit console wars
3. N64 has no gaems
4. Trashure
5. Mario 3 vs SMW
6. Sonic threads
7. Beat em ups
8. Resident Evil Francise/Dino crisis
9. Crts
10. Shinobi franchise

Probably missing a few that would bump Shinobi down the list more but you get the point.

>Shadow Dancer Genesis is really fun. Returns to the arcade difficulty with one-hit deaths. I also enjoy the arcade version.
I enjoyed it a bunch as well. Only downside for me is the bosses suck compared to the other two Shinobi's.

>Still Revenge is my favorite of the console Shinobis.
I get really torn between RoS and 3 but usually gravitate towards RoS being the overall better game.

What is the greatest Ninja game and why is RoS?

The thing with NG is that once you "git gud" and memorize a stage you feel like a badass ninja flying thru cutting up mofo's left and right. Very satisfying feeling. But yeah overall Shinobi > Ninja Gaiden.

>SNES: Hagane
Is this the ONLY good Ninja game the SNES had? SAD!

>If we are just talking about the NES Ninja Gaidens, 2 and 3 really just feel like a rehash of the original.
This. I like all the NG games but Shinobi brings something different every time and it's almost always great.

He also beats up hot chicks disguised as nuns

Replayed RoS couple weeks back. Love it outside of that harbor jump. I gamed over at it and on the 2nd playthrough had to farm lives on the factory stage to prep for it. That is all.
