5.0 out of 5 stars Great recreation of a great classic NES game

The original Shadow of the Ninja was one of those games I didn’t discover until emulation and fell in love with it. Remembering how Natsume developed Ninja Gaiden Shadow for the Game Boy, I always wondered why there weren’t more games. Hard but not impossible difficulty with plenty of replayability with the pocket change system and finding all the items. If you enjoyed the original, love retro games, or just want a solid, beautiful hand-drawn experience, and something to scratch that “8-bit ninja game” itch, I highly recommend Shadow of the Ninja: Reborn along with the other 2 remakes Tengo Project has done, Pocku and Rocky: Reshrined, and Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors. I hope all 3 games get original sequels!

5.0 out of 5 stars NES Hard

A great remake that surpasses the original. Great music and beautiful pixel art. Keep in my mind the enemy layout is definitely old school hard. You will die a lot. Use all your tools at your disposal. You can brute force you way through the game. Unlimited continues and each level is broken into 3 sections that act as checkpoints. If you die too many times the game will start adding power ups to help you get through. The final boss is 2 phases but you can cheese the first one if you know where to stand so that should help. Loved it despite the urge to throw a controller at the wall.

4.0 out of 5 stars a 2D classic!

i just got this game today in mail and i played it all day and i enjoyed it. playing 2D action games like this brings back memories of those olden days. i don't care what people say, but modern 3d games just don't have that magic like 2d games of years past have. there is a reason why even young gamers are going retro bc they discovered that 2D magic!! now i played original back in the day and this remake improved upon it in many ways. it got a graphical upgrade obviously and gameplay was improved. if you liked the original you'll like this remake. i also like younger gamers to give this game a try as well. if you want to relive the 90s and see what it was like to game during that era, then play this game!!! no load times, no prolonged story to listen to, you just jump straight into the gameplay after you press start, old-school style! just how i like it!! it's the perfect game for the modern era for those who just want something quick to jump into and play. it's a game that respect your time. not many people got time to play a 100hr modern RPG. Shadow of the Ninja will entertain you in just a short amount of time.

Absolutely gorgeous remake/sequel to the NES classic. They may be the most talented 2D pixel artists working today.
