Wait, Shinobi Legions is 2D.

It is a 2d game but the grapics are digitized not anime 2d games like the former shinobi games the differences are pretty clear,

My concern with Shinobi Legion/X isn't much the "ninja cutscenes" with goofy sentaï-like jumps all over the place, this is kinda cool since its fits pretty well the Shinobi universe even if you're right, I prefer the darker presentation of the first installments and 2D sprites over digitized characters, for me the 2D games aged much better in term of presentation.

No the main problem with this game is the controls are clumsy, the level design is boring, the bosses are meh, the whole gameplay experience is clearly inferior to SMS/Genesis counterparts IMO.

Thanks to the digitized grapics I find that some bosses look pretty intersting in the shinobi universe.

Also some enemies look pretty bad like the snake etc but I personally find it pretty funny it gives it some charm just like the bad ninja movies from back in the day.

Furthermore The AI is smarter in shinobi x than in the genesis counter parts.

Also they if I am not mistaken shinobi X has one of the more difficult final bosses in the shinobi series.

I disagree with you on everything aside that 2d grapics age better.

Does anyone know on what Mhz the SMS works?

Im having trouble finding it on a flatscreen.

Just a buy a master system AV cable I also hate searching for the channel for these systems.

It really saves allot of time especially if it is your first time and the image quality is slightly better to.

Also some flatscreens do not have anologue mode anymore so It could be possible that you cannot use your master system console on your flat screen.

1 Pokemon ruby my first game.

2 Super smash bros melee

3 mario kart double dash

4 Raiden II wich i played at an arcade machine at a used car dealer it was a raiden arcade machine for 2 players.

5 Pokemon mystery dungeon blue rescue team.

after explorers of the sky these series went downhill explorers of the sky was the best though so much replay value since there were some dungeons in blue rescue team wich were nearly im possbible especially for recruiting the dungeon bosses.



Honorable mentions since the ones in the list were the games I had as a kid early on still though these games here wich I played are also from before I became a collector many years have passed before I went on that collectors road.

Mario & luigi partners in time
Fire emblem shadow dragon
mario galaxy series
second samurai sega megadrive at a friends place


My child hood games wich I still have bad dreams about:

Mario party series

If by Shinobi you mean the 3 first games and Shadow Dancer I would agree but please, Shinobi Legions/X is a complete mess.

Shinobi Legions is awesome. I'm in complete agreement with him. Love the digitized graphics, the 2D gameplay, and the oh-so-awesome live-action ninja cutscenes.

Those bad ninja cut scenes are priceless

Gameplay, music, sounds and presentation wise it is the best in the series.

@turom

I can't blame you I you prefer the 2d grapics though and that you don't like the classic ninja cut scenes and the less serious visuals, if that's the case the former games are indeed a better choice for you.

LOL

Why does everyone mention those mediocre ninja games or shoot em ups wich aren;t even ninja games.

I never here anyone saying some decent 2d ninja games.

The return of shinobi for the megadrive/genesis for example

or

Shinobi III for the megadrive or genesis wich is even better

Or the best one shinobi X for the sega saturn

(pal version has superior soundtracks over the us version though)

I myself usually prefer english language instead of the original japanese audio,however after playing allot of RPG's I've seen that allot of rpg's with english voice acting is pretty bad.

In those cases even the japanese audio sounds better to me and in some cases way better.

Still though if the voice acting is good I prefer english audio.

I will usually default to whatever the original audio is but sometimes the Engish audio is fine. I just usually find English audio to sound overdone... Japanese audio tends to sounds more natural to me.

That's what I mean, I prefer japanese audio in most cases since in allot of rpg games the english voice acting is pretty bad and not natural.

I'm not a hardcore original audio fan but if the english audio is bad I prefer the japanese voice acting.

Sworddude:
I think you can only change one at a time, you could best fill that in when you add it to your collection

done with adding stuff finally don't have that many games but I do only collect games that I like in the end I might have a decent amount of games

I must say that this database is pretty handy also to add stuff.
