God damn, this game scared me when I was a kid. The title music combined with big black hieroglyphs scared the living shit out of 4-year old me. And that bulging eyes when player dies was just haunting. Damn.
Total nostalgia. But as a kid, i can only pull through to the 4th stage because I'm not even that skilled at that age lol. Strangely, those black ninjas appear in early stage in my gameplay. Maybe mine was modded. And like someone said before, I thought this game is somewhat creepy as a kid because of the background music and that score screen.
My aunt passed last week and I was looking for this game's name cause she used to play it with me and my sister when we were kids, she basically raised us as our mother so it's one of many good memories I have from her Thanks for the upload mate
Played this first time sometime in latesummer 99, the casette was a ”1000 in 1” were i always no matther what i choosed it took me to last stage 😅, good memories and sweet 90s ❤
Si habré jugado a este juego de chico, aunque parezca fácil es bastante difícil, un mal movimiento o un mal cálculo y morís enseguida y a comenzar todo desde el principio. Las bolas esas de colores siempre se me escapaban jajaja, lo que veo que no tiene mucho sentido es el stage bonus, es igual siempre y no ofrece dificultad ni límite de tiempo lo cual me parece absurdo. Eso sí el Ninja Kun de Snes ese sí es un gran juego, le dá mil vueltas a este que es de esos juegos infinitos, como el Skydestroyer o el Balloom Fight.
This game was released early into the Famicom's lifespan, when developers still hadn't quite gotten the grasp of the hardware's sound capabilities yet.
I just remembered like hey ive seen this things before,, and holy fuck i recon its in my very very early age as kid to have borrowed friend Gameboy or Whatever to play these
Please play the SNES/PS version(I forgot which one it's on already). There is a stage where the lava rises up and the ninjas have to find a way up in the cave maze.
I can't believe this, they made an hard game with a really horrible music, they also made sequel to this game (which is also hard) with a really Catchy music, Jaleco wtf?
It goes like this: Ninja-Kun Majou no Bouken (this) = Developer: TOSE or Micronics (music definitely sounds like it) Game Rating: Kusoge Ninja-Kun Ashura no Shou (sequel) = Developer: Micronics (i really did think it was TOSE's good side...i was wrong) Game Rating: For the developer given, it's really good. On it's own it's a great game and the music IS rockin'. Jaleco developed other Ninja-Kun games, they thought "damn, this'll make money" so they bought the rights of the franchise of UPL.
