Congrats to Evil Eagle for the week 5 pick



Since the sequel box has been opened up by Pocky and Rocky 2, I'm gonna go with Ninja Gaiden III: The Ancient Ship of Doom for NES. It's got a challenge already built in: The US version was made harder in a lot of ways, including giving you only 5 total continues unlike the two previous games' infinite continues. The JP version also has password saves that the US version removed. So the badges can be to beat the game (any version) and beat the game (US version).

neat choice

here's a pair of rom hacks that reverts 99% of the difficulty changes (quicksand is a bit different) in the us version, so you can have the jp balance/passwords/continues with the english text, should that be a thing you care for

5th Game:

Ninja Gaiden 3: The Ancient Ship of Doom (NES) - 1991 - Deadline 2/22/22 11:59PM EST

The game is the third installment of the Ninja Gaiden trilogy, in which the events take place between the first two games in the series, Ninja Gaiden and Ninja Gaiden II: The Dark Sword of Chaos. The player controls Ryu Hayabusa as he is framed for the murder of Irene Lew and investigates the circumstances behind her death. He eventually discovers a plan by CIA agent Foster and another person named Clancy to utilize an interdimensional rift to create and control a race of energy-infused superhuman mutants. The game features similar gameplay to its previous two Ninja Gaiden titles and includes some new features such as the ability to hang overhead from pipes and sword power-ups.

:siren: Important Note :siren:

The American version is harder than the Japanese version, this will be reflected in the badges this week







The music, as always with NG games, is excellent

How come Japanese devs are capable of being badasses but western devs (not including Todd Howard and Phil Fish) are lamos.
