Ninja Warriors 1994

Is it still worth playing?

Three ninja androids, built by rebels to overthrow the tyrant Banglar, fight his forces in this 1994 side scrolling beat em up for the Super Nintendo, a follow up to Taito's 1987 arcade game. The Ninja is slow but powerful with a nunchaku, the Kamaitachi is quick but weak with sickles on his arms, and the Kunoichi is balanced with knives and swords. They have jumps, dashes and throws, and after a few strikes a finishing move can be used. Grabbing lets you slam enemies into the ground, and safes and motorcycles can be thrown. An explosion meter builds over time, and when it is full it damages everything on screen, but being knocked down drains it. Movement is on a single plane. It is a single player game with unlimited continues, and you can switch characters. Three androids with their own moves and a meter that clears the screen still give each stage a choice of how to fight.
