ninjas vs. pirates
Post by ED-209 Automated Police Unit on Jun 1st, 2003, 2:39pm
I'm doing a presentation on why ninjas are better than pirates, and I'm calling on all you video game players to help me find a comprehensive list of all video games which star ninjas, or just have ninjas in them or even just the word 'ninja' in the title.
(movies would be good too)

Why would I want to help you? Pirates are so much better than Ninjas..in fact, Pirates are the greatest. Take that. 
Anyway, here are some Ninja games I know:
-the Mystical Ninja series starring Goemon (or just 'Goemon')
-Ninja Gaiden (dunno what it is but it sounds familiair)
-that new Sega game for PS2 (what's it's name?)
-Teenage Mutant NINJA Turtles games (
)
-Shadow Warrior..I think.
-Zelda: Majora's Mask has the 'Garo' Ninjas.
that's all I can think of right now. Good luck with your presentation!
btw, did you ever check out realultimatepower.net ? It's full of Ninja-ness.

Thank you Splash, it's a good start. I am sorry to hear about your love of pirates. In my studies for this presentation I have learned many reasons why ninjas are better than pirates (besides the B.O.)
For example, did you know that ninjas can tell what time it is just by looking at a cat's eyes?
Or what about the ninja who gave himself a sex change so that he could sleep with the man he wanted to kill and infect him with a fatal disease! That is hardcore!
From what I have read, all pirates do is sail around stinking and buggering each other all day.
Anyway, thanks again for the help. If anyone else has some more ninja games and movies or trivia to help out with I would appreciate it.

You might check out the Last Ninja series at http://lastninja.c64.org. The game appeared on pretty much everything that had a CPU at this time. If System 3 did a conversion to the GBA I'd buy it at the spot. 
Cheers,
Michael

talking about ninjas ( hell yea they are the best ) i happen to be an expert on ninja gaiden games.. i have beaten all 3 of them, also for ninja gaiden 1 i believe i might have the fastest beating time ever ( if proved otherwise ) of 18 minutes and 49 seconds.. if anyone can beat that let me know. i believe in ninja gainden 2 i can beat it in 26 minutes or so.. but the third one i never timed myself since its such a hard game to beat 
later

I remember the name of that SEGA game for PS2..it is called 'Shinobi'.

the ninja gaidens were good, and shinobi was awesome (didn't he have a dog?)!
I've beaten the 1st Ninja Gaiden, but I don't know about the others, I can't remember.
Didn't someone (ps2 or GC) come out with a Shinobi game in the last year or so? I seem to remember a commercial with a guy playing Shinobi in a convenience store and Shinobi is running around Ninja-ing things while a huge red scarf trails behind him.
Anyway, thanks for the help.

heh, I guess Splash just said that ps2 came out with Shinobi. heh. 
by the way, we gave the presentation today in class. Our 6 person group divided into 3's and one half went pro Ninja, and the other half went pro pirate. After the presentation the class voted, and the results were 12-4 in favor of Ninjas.
The people have spoken, NINJAS STOMP PIRATE BOOTY!
