  • SNK Neo-Geo MVS cart. published 32 years ago:

    Ninja Commando © 1992 Alpha Denshi Company, Limited.

    3 ninjas are sent on a mission to stop a madman named Spider from trying to use a time machine to mess with history. The game is almost like a tongue-in-cheek reworking of "Time Soldiers", which Alpha Denshi made 5 years earlier, with ninjas as the protagonists this time.

    TECHNICAL
    Runs on the SNK "Neo-Geo MVS" hardware.
    Game ID: NGM-050

    Players: 2
    Control: 8-Way Joystick
    Buttons: 3
    → [A] Shoot, [B] Somersault, [C] Ninja Tricks

    TRIVIA
    Ninja Commando was released on April 30, 1992.

    TIPS AND TRICKS
    The more you press the A button repeatedly, the more firepower you'll produce.

    Press the A and B button together to fire shuri-ken (star-shaped blades). Unlike the main firepower, which is only straight ahead, the shuri-ken can be fired in all directions by moving the joystick in the opposite direction of which you wish to aim (example: to fire to the left, move the joystick to right and vice versa). This is also the best way to deal with a few of the bosses here: for example, on the stage set in feudal Japan, there are two giant sumo wrestlers who appear as sub-bosses. The main firepower seems to only have minor effect on them, but the shuri-ken are much more effective.

    The C button is for firing magical bursts of energy. One drawback is that, similar to "Final Fight" this can cause a little of your life energy to be drained, so it should be used very carefully.
