A great gem from my gold old Mega Drive games, this game had everything, it's as if the creator's stayed up for a week and just watched movies for inspiration and idea's, most major movies from the 80's rolled into one game. All this combines with throthgars/Tyrannicons singing and epic commentary commentary, pure gold!
"Onto the boss... Spiderman. Spiderman!?" Rofl... This was like one of my favourite games as a kid lol! Was pretty hard tho, especially if you don't have infinite shurikens :p Great vid m8
30:46 Batman still escaped in his Bat form!!!!!!!!! That's why I wouldn't be surprised if the long-awaited SHINOBI VS. BATMAN SEQUEL is some day released!!!!!!!!!!
no crashes, no idiotic system requirements, solid game play... why are we letting devs get away with the shite we get offered now ( PC and consoles) Lords of the fallen springs to mind..Revenge of Shinobi was and is a really good game
Figures it would end at the stage with "the jump". I'm not sure if that's the same one I agonized over, but because of the one jump on that stage, the music is forever burned into my memory. It's awesome and frustrating at the same time (awesomely frustrating?). Reminds me of Castlevania 3 when I kept dying on the stage with the flying bone dragon boss at the end (small platform while fighting, one hit means death and having to go through the entire stage again) but the pumping "Aquarius" music just kept me going. And the feeling when you overcome...it's great. Reminiscing like this, I guess it's true that the sense of accomplishment folks laud Dark Souls for (and rightly so) is not something new, but something that the classic games of old had.
What a surprise! Talk about nostalgia, this was one of my favorite games as a kid on the sega megadrive. I never beat it, it got too fucking hard for me lol.
Spiderman was legit licensed. The rest had to modified or removed in later versions since Sega inexplicably released the copyright infringing version for a few months in America and Japan.
THE WAY OF THE NINJA! THE WAY OF THR NINJAAAAAHHH!!!! Loved the singing in this one Here we go one againher we wanna go one and one ageeeeiinn BrainBoid!!! How it Sucked! Magical Power!!!! SHHHHHHIIIIITTTTTTT!!!!
Older gamers always harp on about the SNES having better music capabilities, but for my money the Megadrive beats it hands down. Stuff like this and Streets of Rage still sound incredible even now.
As one of those older gamers, I'd have to agree that the SNES sound hardware is more versatile to be sure. That part is a simple statement of fact. However, the sort of thrashy sound of the Genesis sound hardware is well suited to this type of music, and in the end, it's the talent of the composer that matters most. A good soundtrack on the SNES isn't going to be better than a good Genesis soundtrack just by virtue of more advanced sound hardware. Same reason that good soundtracks today aren't necessarily better than the good ones of the past. In the case of the music for this game and the Streets of Rage series, we're talking Yuzo Koshiro. Probably a top five all time VGM composer in my opinion (and I have a particular fondness for the Streets of Rage 2 soundtrack, which ranks among my top five favorites of all time). As such, the compositions in this game are awesome. Also, this techno flavored style happens to be his specialty. He did the same with Actraiser on SNES.
On 7-1, I always lost tons of lives on this MASSIVE, IMPOSSIBLE JUMP, and then after losing a load, it would mysteriously become a possible jump!!!!!!!!!!! That always mystified me, but also made me dread 7-1!!!!!!!! ;*(
Hey Tyrannicon... how are you playing these "retro" games? Are you playing them on their original platforms or is this through an emulator? Love your stuff, man! I'd love to see TJ Lazer play through System Shock 2!
Kasumi ninja? No, I guess not. So you weren't supposed to do one of those double-jumps there at the end? Perhaps wait patiently for a magical whale? I wonder if the boss was going to be Aquaman? I hear he's very popular with the comic book crowd.
That copyright infringement though, haha! That wasn't spidey. He's a good guy! Speaking of which, why don't you play an spidey game or the the arkham series, throthgar?
"women pretending to be nuns when theyre actually whores" pure brilliance!! And theres truth behind that when it comes to particular women...Shinobi teaches us that haha yeaah!
Sigaia would make Tyrannicon RAGE www.gamefaqs.com/genesis/586439-sagaia Darius was once a planet that boasted a highly advanced civilization, but fell into ruin after succumbing to the relentless assaults of Belser and his mysterious space aliens. Proco and Tiat, two survivors of Belser's evil quest, escaped and fled to the planet Orga where they began a new civilization. Centuries later, the descendants of Proco and Tiat received a strange radio signal emitted from a distant part of their galaxy.
This game was all over the place. Batman, rambo, to a terminator. Ancient japan to futuristic laser palace. Might as well have bill and tedds time booth take him to the next leve.l why not.
Thank you so much tyrannicon for making me remember from my childhood of the game i forgot, wow this takes me back.Thanks lol and that jump ikr its so retarded. Hopefully you continue this. :)
The singing really compliments the rage in this one, well done.

27:01 I think that's the best "What the fuck" i've ever heard in my life
7:00 "Now this is tricky. And it might kill me. Probably wiiiill" XD
22:01 The ultimate ninja battle of the Eighties that you always wanted: Shinobi Vs. Legend of Kage! Or is it Eastern Religion Vs. Catholicism?
"Onto the boss... Spiderman. Spiderman!?" Rofl... This was like one of my favourite games as a kid lol! Was pretty hard tho, especially if you don't have infinite shurikens :p Great vid m8
Finally you play a game i hold dear from my childhood, you should try, if you have not already, Shinobi III. The music is top notch. :D
Your songs are pure gold, man.
ikr i cant stop laughing at them
In this game you can find: Shinobi, Samurai, Bruce Lee, Modern Soldier, Rambo, Evil brain, terminator, and lasers of course XD
Anyone else miss the way Tyrannicon says "take your head clean off"? Haha
Your singing is fucking hilarious!
30:46 Batman still escaped in his Bat form!!!!!!!!! That's why I wouldn't be surprised if the long-awaited SHINOBI VS. BATMAN SEQUEL is some day released!!!!!!!!!!
I though he was gonna rap lol 16:37here we go agean one one one agean here we go agean

Disco epileptic Ninja : Vomit Warning**
I use to have this for the Sega but it came in a bundle cartridge called Sega six pack this brought back memories

What can men do against so reckless ninja hate!
What a surprise! Talk about nostalgia, this was one of my favorite games as a kid on the sega megadrive. I never beat it, it got too fucking hard for me lol.
9:45 his powers greater than mine!!
The singing from 25:45 onwards... epic.
This was before my time but still I appreciate it more than some of the crap games we get today lol
Random Batman and Spiderman boss fight had me cracking up lol
Terminator, Rambo, batman and Spider-Man? How did they get away with this or were they properly lisenced?
You forgot to mention Bruce Lee, Elektra (the nun-turned-kunoichi in red), the Hulk, and Disco (you CAN'T forget Disco . . .)
Batman Ninja! BATMAN NINJA!!
Godzilla too
Spiderman was legit licensed. The rest had to modified or removed in later versions since Sega inexplicably released the copyright infringing version for a few months in America and Japan.
The infinite shurikin cheat always comes in handy for this game.
especially if your fighting the final boss
Throthgar should record an album, he has the voice of an angel.
I loved playing this game on my Sega Genesis at my nana & papa's house. Glad to see you play it.
Excellent video
THE WAY OF THE NINJA! THE WAY OF THR NINJAAAAAHHH!!!!
Loved the singing in this one
Here we go one againher we wanna go one and one ageeeeiinn
BrainBoid!!!
How it Sucked!
Magical Power!!!!
SHHHHHHIIIIITTTTTTT!!!!
I love it when Throthgar sings
The funny thing is he did not even get to the really, really nasty jump.
Shinobi VS. Dragon Ninja
Nothing like remembering games from my childhood that left many broken controllers! 🎮
Yes. Ritual suicide works every time. Remember kids. When you want to defeat your opponent just commit seppuku. XD
You've got to play Ghostbusters on Sega Genesis... but as TJ Lazer.

This game made me good at video games as a kid, eventually
BATMAN NINJAAAA
I really like your songs

I miss those old games. Nowadays if you try to pull something like that you get sued out the ass.
Hey Tyrannicon... how are you playing these "retro" games? Are you playing them on their original platforms or is this through an emulator? Love your stuff, man! I'd love to see TJ Lazer play through System Shock 2!
emulator
Tyrannicon What controller are you using?
Tyrannicon Shinobi 2: Shadow Dancer, with the wolf companion!
kidscallmehoju
360
+Tyrannicon All hail Yuzo Koshiro and his magnificent beats.
Kasumi ninja? No, I guess not. So you weren't supposed to do one of those double-jumps there at the end? Perhaps wait patiently for a magical whale? I wonder if the boss was going to be Aquaman? I hear he's very popular with the comic book crowd.
What a bumble!
That copyright infringement though, haha!
That wasn't spidey. He's a good guy!
Speaking of which, why don't you play an spidey game or the the arkham series, throthgar?
People don't get there was no save device back then. All mega drive games were hard as fuck to complete
"women pretending to be nuns when theyre actually whores" pure brilliance!! And theres truth behind that when it comes to particular women...Shinobi teaches us that haha yeaah!
You should give bushido blade a shot if you can find it lol
Kasumi Ninjar!
Shieeet! I used to play this like a loon when I was but a wee' lad. Sega Genesis was a beast!
NO HE DIDNT DO THE JUMP! lol
Shinobi 3 is butter
Would you consider doing Super Metroid (as an actual series, not as a retro rage)?
Dammit, now I have to play Super Metroid this weekend. Thanks, internet. Wonder if I can still mockball on command?
Where's kickboxing banana in this ninja game?!
