PC Engine Longplay [033] Ninja Ryuukenden 

yeah Tecmo was kinda stupid in the mid-90s... until they brought over Dead or Alive

If you played this version, you would also know that the controls are very stiff. The NES is much tighter on the controls. Overall, the NES version is the best.

yes the parallax scrolling is messed up very badly :(

@@transfiguration8865 not really. the NES version still had stiff controls

@Fat Chocobo it isn't. The game runs like this on the actual system.

10 times? Hardly. Looks more or less the same with slightly more colors.

Sorry man, the music sucks and the background scrolling is distracting and horrible and makes the game very hard to look at.

Wtf you like this 12 day shit sandwich?

That death really did give me a laugh.

Superb graphics, but the soundtrack is a disappointment. The music on NES was fantastic. The PC engine missed a big opportunity here.

NOT IN MUSIC!

I don't know how they faked high detailed parallax scrolling on the pce, but just imagine if they not only used a group of tile sets per hights wich not only has different animated tile sets but they also have to animated in sych with eachother in wich each tile set also has to begin and end at a different animated tile set per walk frame dependong were you are standing, but i cannot imagine if they had to do it way as that would be very complicated, if they only used animated tile sets with simple patterns then you don't have to care about in whether position they're placing such tile sets aslong they are in synch with eachother, what i consider more imagineble is ,if they just used a special chip with extra video ram, and hijack the ppu to stream it's parallax scrolling backgrounds trough it, while the ppu generates it's frontground , but again am not sure how it was done,

Not really, the Famicom lasted longer. PC Engine was discontinued in 1994 from 1987 (7 years) whereas Famicom was discontinued in 2003 from 1983 (20 years).

least its not as bad as Bugs Bunny's Birthday Blowout for the NES, and take a wild guess on how I know that lol

The original was a beat em up

Why did the snes version not had parallax scrolling in it, they could,ve done it very easely, Trough i don't how parallax scrolling was done in cv rondo of blood via the pce cd ram addon ,all i know is, that addon has more ram,maybe it's partially hijacking the pce ppu to stream it's multi scrolling backgrounds to it while ppu generates it's frontgrounds, i cannot imagine they faked it trough complicated in synch animated tile updates, line scrolling is very easy and with enough sprites you can overlap stuff to also create the ellusion of multi scrolling backgrounds, either way it's interesting.

Sure these multi layer scrolling backgrounds causes dizzyness & eye strain, as if you are felling ill, but i was thinking that if they really faked it, then i must say this is an enormous accomplishment, the way how they did this, i just can't imagine if they faked it the hard way.

Way worse.

Jason Arrington I’m guessing maybe that this was how the original translation was but Nintendo of America made them change devil doer to another name based on their standards?

I agree. I hardly play my NES version since getting the PC Engine version. It even looks better than the Trilogy for SNES in my opinion.

Looks like a kids game funny cuz the runner is a convicted child molester.

S

there was a game for the Sega Master System too that was pretty good and had good graphics but gameplay was a departure from the nostalgic difficulty of the NES trilogy

Matthew Andrews You right i did played that Sega Master version too and it was a very nice game. They walk away a little bit from the difficulty of the NES games but still it was a nice game.

I don't think I agree with the part of the graphics being better. This version is more bland, like having a nes game on a snes or something. The nes version had more details, felt better to me. Music is clearly better in the nes version. But I also prefer the graphics of the nes version. This looks a bit cold/empty.

Obviously this version looks much better than the NES version. Other than the parallax fail there is no argument to be made here.

It looks like different people were in charge of making the backgrounds but they didn't talk to each other during the process lol

People like you who rattle on about meaningless technicals are ignorant from the start l.

A Shaw cheaper to produce

Good graphics? Look at this parallax scrolling!!!

@@AAAAAA-hv5qp I would prefer it with stationary backgrounds over this catastrophe. Otherwise, it looks like an minor enhancement over the NES version.

There is a code you enter on the main screen, it let's you change the text from Japanese to Chinese or English!
