Well, we did it. We survived the onslaught of TOSE/Bandai games for NES (also, Tag Team Wrestling). Well done, team. On to better things... eventually.

Ninja Kid retrospective: An unlikely glimmer of hope | NES Works #030

Yet another game by TOSE and Bandai based on a Japanese manga and anime property. Oh noooo! But wait. Ninja Kid is actually... kinda good? Like, legit fun in an old-school arcade sort of way, with varied level objectives and play styles, and a pretty decent power-up system. Maybe this whole "NES third party content" thing isn't doomed to trash-tier video game hell after all....

Great work as always, Jeremy! Hope Japan didn't take too much out of you. Are you going to E3 as well?

Thanks Jeremy, this review was fun and informative. I remember when Danny played Ninja Kid on Game Grumps a while back. Bet he'd enjoy watching this, too.
