- The thirty-third episode of Boss Analysis.
The Revenge of Shinobi is one of the oldest and most beloved games on the Genesis or Mega Drive. But like many games with ninjas, it can be difficult from time to time. I wouldn't be surprised if modern day ninjas used it for their training.
Rather than giving into weaknesses and accepting all the help the game gives me, though, I've decided to do the exact opposite to answer the question I had: Is it possible to beat each of the eight bosses with the bare minimum? This means...
- No shurikens
- No special Jitsu
- No Pow upgrade
All Joe Musashi has at his disposal to overcome his deadliest foes is a short-range knife and a kick. I believe that no boss from any game should become unbeatable if you go up against them in the worst possible situation and was curious to see if this game didn't fall into the same trap as my much-hated Buebeam Trap from Mega Man 2.

CyborgSelZero congrats for the pin
i would certainly pin timestamps myself
Thanks!

fun fact spiderman has gone through 3 revisions the black the blue and the pink
@Jayden Ayaan thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site on google and im in the hacking process atm.
I see it takes a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
Star shaped weapons = Shurikens
Knife shaped weapons = Kunais
Just to clarify.
i think he knows that, he just calls them shurikens because the game does.
@@chasenplayz But wouldn't/shouldn't he say "shurikins" in that case? :P
Also the first boss has an odachi, not a katana.
In reality kunais were more used as a crowbar, the knives were called tantogata shuriken
@@junichiroyamashita Crowbar? I thought they were digging spades.
Not suprising since this is the same company who's mascot says "no copyright law in the universe is going to stop me"
but MJ stopped Icecap :(
They actually removed those in the rereleases
S E G A
*confused unga bunga*
Joe Musashi even raced against Sonic in All-Stars Racing Transformed, so we went full-circle!
Imagine J. Jonah Jameson's reaction to learning that Spider-Man is actually... BATMAN!
20:59
AVGN voice: "Holy shit, it's Spider-Man!"
I like the little character bios you made for the bosses. They made me laugh
Same
Not to mention that the sound played when a bio appears is the same one used in Paper Mario TTYD when you register for a match in The Glitz Pit, just pitched down. (actually is this pitch in the extracted files I have).
21:03
I can't wait until AVGN covers this game
"Spider-Man AND Batman want you DEAD. ...Damn."
As you kept saying "Still very male (for now)" on Spider/Batman, I thought his 3rd phase would be Wonder Woman.
@@lazuardialdi2646 no u
Lazuardi Aldi why? You’re insulting the Him.
Lazuardi Aldi what pain?
Lazuardi Aldi
Are you okay?
@@lazuardialdi2646 What?
"You think copyright laws can stop me?"
"Well me, Spiderman, and Batman don't care!"
-Shinobi devs, probably
They say Infinity Wars is the most ambiguous crossover?
Jusy you wait and see Spiderman and Batman in the same game...
Don't forget Godzilla aswell!
Greg Frin it sure is ambiguous. I don’t even know what it is
Ikazuchi (雷) is Japanese for "Thunder"
Karyu (火龍) is Japanese for "Fire Dragon"
Fushin (浮身) is Japanese for "Floating Body"
Mijin (微塵) is Japanese for "Particle"
Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice is looking really good
It's also ridiculously hard.
Fuck you, Enshin of Misen!
gonna go out on a limb and say this is much harder
haven't played sekiro but I'VE PLAYED THIS
I find it pretty funny that Marvel apparently actually let them keep Spiderman in the game xD
Like "eh sure you can keep it there"
Yep. Until the Virtual Console era, then he became different.
He turned into a Pink Latex Suit thing, SEGA didn't had the Spider-Man license anymore, so they had to change it.
@@BComet
so he became pink guy
@@vagledip5190 b0ss i habe cancer
That last boss reminds me of that technique you had in the game you made the first boss analysis of, talk about a deja vu...
Thats what I was thinking the whole time
I think both are inspired by the same thing in Japan.
You just gotta applaud Git for putting himself through actual torture to make us videos, like naked alucard and this. These things aren't easy and they show how dedicated he is. Great job Git. (also no jutsus OR pow upgrades, i couldnt even beat the game without them.)
4:39 so that's were they got the sonic mania sound effect
That boss fight was basically one big reference to this game. His name is even Heavy Shinobi
@@ruthmcnally310 , well high mass japonise spy won't get away with this, dr pingas is mad
9:50 I think the text in the background is a reference to a hokuto no ken character named “zeed”
Dude, Zeed is the name of the villain organization in this game.
Why Spider Man? Why is he in this game?
Edit: WHAT THE HELL
Mega Morphin Spiderman.
HE'S THE EMMISARY FROM HELL
SUPAIDA MAN
I’m pretty sure SEGA actually had the Spider Man license for another game they were making at the time.
The Arch “Friends with a wild girl! Spider-Man”
Shinobi games are known to have references to pop culture. The original Shinobi game had Spider Man and Marilyn Monroe, with probably more.
With all these weird translation and spelling errors, I'm going to guess that "Kariu" was meant to be "Karyu/Ka-ryu" which makes more sense as that translates as "Fire Dragon"
5:48 that is very good to know since I got that game for my birthday 2 years ago and have been wanting to play it :3
Supercomputer: behold, I am unable to die, because I am friends with mr. X. Dies after a while
Katanas arent sharp on their backside, thats why he cant hurt you when retracting the sword (oh my
30:59 DAH! CHRIST! Don't scare me like that, I'm watching this at 2:50 p.m., you know?
I have an idea for a hack! Place the levels of Revenge of Shinobi into the engine of Shinobi III, so we can use his improved moveset.
and give unlimited continues for good measure
Spider Man and Batman in a Game when you are a ninja. *Wow. cool surprise*
Théophile Caceres
Godzilla, the Terminator, and Hulk, too.
@@austinreed7343 Also, Bruce Lee and Rambo
Spider-Man, Batman, a maybe Hulk and Godzilla? Wow, this looks like one of those Avengers bootleg toys collections.
I'm pretty positive the version i played when i was a kid wasn't the one with Batman and Godzilla.
Dude this was one of the first games I owned, I was terrible at it but still had fun!
love that you're using Squall as a measurement for video game characters
15:43 "As you harm him, his skin turns greener and greener, heavily resembling a certain Marvel character"
Ah, you mean Gamora?
Notice how he even has Gamma Charge
I could've sworn ACESpark said exactly the same thing in his Shinobi Boss Run video.
I think he meant Martian Manhunter.
Yeah he talking of abomination
It's obviously Gumby you idiots
One of my most favorite childhood games, and one of my all-time favorites even today, played amazingly. Very cool. How have I not heard of you before?
AWESOOOOOOOME New Boss analysis video best time to spend the evening and having an mini supper while watching
Spiderman is Batman, but later you discover that Batman is a Skrull
And to this day I can't properly make a double jump in this game lol
Spiderman, either becomes Devil Man or Batman... Neither or these is ever something you want to see Spiderman turn into, especially if you are fighting against him. I mean the quipping wall-crawler is enough, making him turn into the super-rich, terrifyingly determined, trained by master assassins, modern ninja or the demon who only Lucifer himself managed to kill - that's just way to fricking much...
I never got far with this game, so imagine my surprise when later on in life I found out that the later bosses were Spider Man, Batman, Terminator, and freaking GODZILLA was in the game.
I also found out that Yuzo Koshiro composed the OST for this game, who would then go on to do the Street of Rage series.
Oh, and the 'you died' tune used to freak me out back then too.
I'm not the type of guy to usually comment about being early or commenting before the video is over but...
Uploaded 3 minutes ago.
This is seriously the fastest I have been to a video.
Not only is Spider-Man in the game, but is anyone else bothered by his web coming out of his butt like a real spider?
"An android that hangs around a junkyard in Detroit"
...
*Markus?*
Aaaargh, it's so good to know this game was as jank as I thought it was. 6 year old me could only ever make it to 2-1...sometimes...barely. And I couldn't even get past that first platform.
8 people who disliked these were Godzilla, Batman, Spiderman, 5 old men who have very strong wigs.
Oh boi, Papa Git posted another vid! All praise Whoisthisgit!
How about a future boss analysis of Shinobi 3 Return of the Ninja Master
And Alien Soldier? Specially alien Soldier and its gazillion bosses
Yes and yes
The developer that created Shadow Dancer boss fight clearly didn't think in the people with eplepsy
video games come with a warning that states, "if you have epilepsy or other reactions to flashing lights, please contact a doctor before playing video games." so...
@@yowch1081 That's (probably) due to the way flatscreen TVs work. Between every frame there's a flash of solid white. Your eyes can't normally see it, but I guess it could trigger epileptic reactions.
*OH*
*MY*
*DAMN*
*_GOD_*
0:45 the ultimate symbol of tf2 friendlies
Yes, those Gaiden chapters were just dumb. I never got Shadow Dragon's Gaiden chapters. Evidently IntSys realized they were a dumb idea, as New Mystery of the Emblem gives you both the characters from these chapters (Athena, Horace, Etzel, Ymir and Nagi) alongside everyone from the previous game still showing up, and instead bases their side chapter goals on more traditional "get Kris to level 3 promoted" or "beat this level within x turns".
LPArchive's run made a second run on Normal for these, and justified it as Jagen making up an embellished story where he was actually the main hero. It was funny.
Anyway. Minotaur and Blue Lobster. Cage match.
This Shadow Dancer is also not a prestige class for Rogues.
Is Spider-Man out of character or what? No, wait, never mind, that was just a killer Batman clone. Is this game taking place in the bizarro world?
All i wanna say is Good Video
Keep it up Git!
Every 100,000 (until you reach 400,000), you'll get an increase in max health by 2 bars until you reach 16.
I think of what a remake of this game would look like
15:43
THE BRAIN TOO
tried to come asap without notifications.
Worth it
Shinobi 3 has such awesome bosses in comparison to this.
If you sit through THIS, Shinobi 3 will be a breeze.
if joe had dive kick in shinobi 2 most bosses would be a breeze
Oh fuck yeah 40 mins of my favorite series here
That parallax scrolling on the junkyard level is painful.
Great job. I loved this game as a kid. :)
This guy inspire me...
The boss music is stuck in my head. But in not complaining much. It's pretty catchy
Yeah, it's good stuff. Yuzo Koshiro made this game's music and went on to compose Streets of Rage, and while I never really cared for its soundtrack, the tunes in this game are a jam!!
TERMINATOR, SPIDERMAN, BATMAN, DEVILMAN AND GODZILLA??
*WHAT IS THIS GAME???*
Can we get another video on Symphony of the Night? I've been playing it recently and you've always done it justice.
@HicksZ34: "I wouldnt recommend the DX remake to anyone, its really a garbage game"
them's fighting words
@HicksZ34
>D MAS attacks! 4 damage!
really tho DXC is pretty faithful to Rondo, but does make some changes to the level design, however i myself do prefer rondo for the vibrant colors and the synthesized soundtrack, the drab look in some areas definitely hurts the experience for me in what's supposed to be a vibrant, colorful area to traverse, while the soundtrack is still pretty good i feel it's rather bland, but it does let you select the songs for levels when you find them but as for the actual level design it holds up pretty well since again, it's almost a 1-1 conversion of Rondo
i'm also one of those guys who finds SotN horrendously overrated. is it a good game? yeah. best in the igavania lineup? hell no. there's a lot of issues that bug me, like reload time when you die, or how long alucard's knockback lasts on top of how little mercy invincibility he has, not having one would forgive the other's presence, i could go on if you really want me to
@HicksZ34: the flaws i mentioned are definitely not minor if it holds your attention for dozens of hours
for one, save point placement, SotN is horrendous in this regard and contender for worst in the series, let me remind you that these games force you to wait a few seconds which take you to the title screen, then you have to reload your save which also takes a while, and any progress you lost up to that point is gone. there is no save in the clock tower, something that, thankfully, cannot be said of the other games.
two, Portrait of Ruin and Order of Ecclesia break up areas, giving you a chance to go back to a safe area and save, which are more lenient, though i personally would just checkpoint at the start of areas so you would at least have a restart option
three, the general combat feels better, i did a level 1 mistless run and i can talk for hours about how much i hate death and dracula (ESPECIALLY dracula), the bosses are either cheap or far too easy (mostly the latter) while i feel the later games aren't perfect, have a better balance to your arsenal as well as, for the most part, better design on the enemies and their placement
the spike room in the catacombs
good grief the spike room
okay so it's not that hard but if you get hit even once GOOD LUCK GETTING OUT you will die and at the nearest save room it will take you about 3 minutes of backtracking just to get back i wouldn't think of playing this game without savestates just for that
you have to throw food on the floor or wait 10 seconds for a freaking potion to take effect, and yeah everyone's complained about it but i'm still bringing it up
and everyone's also complained about the inverted castle
honestly i played SotN a lot around when i was a kid and it was my only Castlevania for a time and i loved it, but the game just falls apart the more and more i look at it, thankfully that hasn't been the case in two areas, there's not a lot of story but i love it, and the music is awesome
@@dmas7749 minor issues.
@@swiggityswooty1611 they really aren't if you care about gameplay as much as i do
i herd jar brains favorite food is really pickle juice, And i think he keeps popping outa there kinda like when a dog keeps running to a window to see if its owner is home yet lol
My only guess is the devs thought they changed the likeness of the heroes enough to avoid copyright but it wasn't enough. Marvel thought it was a good enough joke to leave it in but dc demanded the change. Thats the only logical conclusion that makes sense to me
Sega had the license to Spider Man at the time.
looks like a nice game,hard to believe it's on the genesis
loved playing this game
He shoot web
He turn into batmen
But most importantly
He swoop down quickly
This game did brake every copyright law. That is why they had to redo the sprites on this as well.
In response to the first boss
What did the knife say to the face?
*SLAP*.
They put the Green giant in this game? Never made it this far...
I love Sategs
The Revenge of Copyright Law.
There aren't many games I enjoy enough to challenge myself with a basics run like this, but I have done an NSG (no sphere grid) run of Final Fantasy X and mono-class challenges for Final Fantasy Tactics.
Wold you say you enjoyed any of the GBA/DS Castlevanias enough to try something similar with them? No equipment Shanoa would be very... hard.
Maybe, I might go a step further with Dawn of Sorrow.
you joke give me good laugh, especially on boss 6 thank you :D
Yeah I HATED the Neo Zeed final boss, as well. And that fucker's evil laugh still haunts me to this day!
I love the boss bios.
15:18 SENATOR ARMSTRONG!
I didn't know Michael Bay directed video games back then
17:18 You sure he's not a Terminator? I mean Android skeleton looks close enough to a Terminator to me
I think the story is that the company making Shinobi technically had the licenses for Spider-Man and Batman at the time, and figured they could just use them freely as cameos.
Uh, they could not. But I guess Marvel didn't care enough to make them radically change anything.
The final boss is Shantae's dad
12:53
collision damage at its finest
2 likes no views aaa
oh man one of my fav games
When I played the game and out of kunais I kept screaming "WHY DON'T YOU JUST USE YOUR FUCKING KATANA?!"
Very nice strat for the last boss. You should check my ancient no-damage run Shinobi video, it has a few different strategies that you might find interesting (like a faster way to kill the brain boss, the Spiderbat and a cool showcase of how incredibly powerful the POW can really be.. like, really, REALLY powerful). Cheers!
great video but now I wanna see you do it for the one I am more familiar with aka shinobi 3
Think of the mijin spell as self-destruct/explosion 💥 from the pokemon video game franchise(you end up doing damage to the opponent at the cost of 1 pokemon)
Oi m8, you don't have a license for this knife, innit?
I just revisited your channel after 2 years, and I've got to ask, WHERE'S YOUR VOICE, YOU PRECIOUS ANGELIC VOICE?????????? WE NEED IT TO MAKE A COMEBACK
Nice.
I pkayed this game on one of those ATGames devices,I never beat the first stage,however ;-;
when I was like 7 or 8, I really wanted to be a ninja when I grew up and shinobi 3 greatly influenced me(I'm a girl)
Still waiting for that super bomberman 4 boss analysis
"Money attack: No. (Phew)"
Apparently someone doesn't like using Zeninage?
Someone would hate to be on the receiving end of it.
There's a error at 1:58. It is supposed to say stage.(at least I think so tell me if I am wrong and it does not ruin this great video)
Copyright infringement shinobi, the game. Still an awesome game, i've played this a lot in my childhood but i couldn't pass the harbor level, it's the seventh level i think.
Starring Sonny Chiba.

devilman is one of the more influential manga in japan, its the reason why manga censorship is much more lax even today.
Mystical ninja nostalga
final boss, looks like the ability from that one, game, where your appearnce kinda of changes to that, but a kabuki mask sort of, and you swing your hair around like that, damaging anything it touches, probably the best ability in that game?
See B.A.1
@@theojaggi3963 yeah that one
I think you're talking of Legend of the Mystical Ninja on SNES (one of three Goemon games to leave Japan).
An Android hanging around Detroit
Sound familiar
Since when did robots have blood pressure?
totally forgot the final boss was from here
30:37 pretty sure his dino corpse is laughing behind your back.
