this game is really good

:hai:

The bosses so far haven’t been too tricky but the two monster dudes who jump around and throw shurikens seem to randomly become invincible and I can’t figure out why.

One of them's just always invincible, it's a NES ninja gaiden tradition.

Made it to level 7 in USA and ran out of continues. It's definitely the hardest level and I'm gonna practice it with save states before I try again

This game kicked rear end. Not sure why they made the US version harder, there was plenty of challenge here without ever being unfair. I appreciated that even though there's 3 final bosses, you don't have to repeat any of the ones you beat even after continuing.

probably to try and stretch out the playtime so it couldn't be beaten in a weekend rental

game keeps crashing in stage 2 on my old everdrive firmware which i used because the zelda randos would keep crashing on the newest firmware. so i swapped back to the new one and hopefully that will fix it

Just experienced that thing ArfJason mentioned where the last level is so long you can't avoid the timer running out if you don't die lol

this game is loving great, and still challenging enough even on the JP version. The only thing I don't like is how when you get hit you sort of freeze now instead of falling back and enemies can just stay on top of you and trap you somewhat? I dunno it feels weird and a step backwards from 1 and 2

Sometimes you get knocked back and sometimes you just freeze for a second. I’m sure there’s a pattern to it but knock backs definitely seemed less common

I devised a new metric for game ratings akin to old man murray's "start to crate" which i named "knockback to death pit" and ninja gaiden has this by stage 3 which is high praise for an nes game

It took me seven hours, and I used a trick I found in the last level to get 9 lives, but I got through the USA version
