Welcome to the official discussion thread for Shinobi on the 3DS!

Why do I get the feeling this thread won't be as popular as the Mario or even Rayman one? Oh well. I know I'm not alone anticipating this title. There's Jargon, and there's... yeah. Anyway, ONM's Shinobi review: " Shinobi is a side-scrolling action platformer" Eh? Eh!? Not convinced? Then I've got another choice quote: " It's an unashamedly simple game and it doesn't care. What's seemingly more important in Shinobi are two things - making you learn your character's skills inside-out and making you feel thoroughly awesome in the process.
While the combat is fantastic, it still doesn't make up for a potential issue - the sheer difficulty. Shinobi is very much old-school, shamelessly challenging to the extent that even the first level on Normal difficulty will have you dying plenty of times. Levels are also very long, multi-stage affairs that can last upwards of 20 minutes and losing all your lives will take you back to the start of the level, which can be immensely frustrating.
But that's the sort of game Shinobi is. It doesn't want you to zoom through it with no hassle, it wants you to die over and over again as you learn which enemy spawns where, figure out the best tactic to defeat each one and in time become an untouchable ninja warrior.As someone who's unable of feeling awesome outside of video games, let me tell you, I am PSYCHED.
