Kamen no Ninja: Hanamaru
For those of you that like to collect things from fast food franchises, you may remember an NES game called "Yo! Noid." This game was the pinnacle of wrongdoing. Not letting this game into the US as it is? What was Capcom on when they made that decision? In short, this decent version was never released in the US, for which I hate Capcom. Well, the story is that there's this evil spirit guy, see, and he sort of, well, takes over this island. So, uh, this ninja guy grabs his crow and goes to beat his ass. Simple storyline, no? Well, in this Mystical Ninja Land, a few things are different. First, everybody hates ninjas that wear funny masks and short shorts. Second, the tides rise and fall once in about seven seconds. (The moon must be moving closer to the Earth.) Every other level, you must kill some rival ninja who's also trying to kill the evil spirit guy. But, like any person who can win this game, you defeat him.
- The guy's hair looks funny (8).
- Sound: Authentic Japanese 8-bit sound (9).
- Gameplay: WE LOVE YOU, CAPCOM! GOOD NIGHT! (Perfect 10.)
- Overall rating: 9.0
