what made the 3DS game so awesome is that it blended the best aspects of the entire franchise. It took the perspective and side scroller platform gameplay of the classic & Genesis series and blended it the combat & combo focus PS2 games (Shinobi & Kunoichi) to create an insanely fun, rewarding, & repayable reimagining of the original game. This looks like it's doing that while also increasing & refining the combat focus... and giving it an incredible hand painted art style.

I love it but it was fast paced to me. I loved it regardless. The physics in s3 genesis were cutting edge at the time. And all of them are awesome soundtracks. My second fav is cyber shinobi on the master system

Shinobi lll was ahead of it's time, there is also another Shinobi not many people know, the Saturn Shinobi, never played but looks great

[Ikagura]

I think it won't but that doesn't mean it would never still be good.

Shinobi 3 is a masterpiece to be sure but nothing is unsurpassable.

Yeah thats shinobi x like i mentioned. That game actually was criminally under the radar. But it was not the fault of the game. They didnt make enough units to sell. So shinobi x at the time wasnt made enough. But i remember geezers complaining at stores. So it became a thing to buy second hand for an awefullprice.

I think revenge of shinobi. Shinobi 3 and cyber shinobi are my fav. Could say shinobi sms and arcade is 4th in my place. But dem honey have u ever played nightshade? That game is bayonetta before bayonetta. Some levels are obviously taken from nightshade. I played bayonetta and i cpuld see that the game most templates wete taken from nightshade.

But guess what brothers from another mother. Im gonna get this game this thursday. And we be kickin ess soon. And f the haters and love the lovers

Brotherhood and no judasses.

Aaaaaaaight

Shinobi X was dead on arrival because it was a 2D game, right?

Then tell me why should I play a 2D platformer instead of Tomb Raider or Mario 64.

That's a different topic

Let's be honest for a second there:

Even if Shinobi X was the best action platformer of its era it would not look as great as the revolutionary Mario 64. It's how videogame history is.

Sega has messed up back in the 32-bits era and is a reason why it no longer did consoles.

Nowadays nostalgia is mostly what's holding them together.

yeah you are right. but shibi x demise is sega decided not to make more cd.s it was fairly wanted

Shinobi 3 is the best 16 bit action platformer ever made.

Shinobi 3DS was fantastic. Griptonite nailed what makes Shinobi great. It was treated harshly by the press at the time. I remember picking up a copy at Gamestop for under $10.
