The first minute intro is like a lone gunslinger/samurai valiantly walking out to face an entire gang that's been terrorizing the town. It's very Kill Bill. Very creative intro.
Ryu Hayabusa NEEDS to be in Smash!!! He's literally the first Ninja in Video Game history for crying out loud! And he debuted on a Nintendo Gaming console no less! I would cry so hard if he truly joins Smash!!!
This is how the opening to the Ninja Gaiden Movie should go. This is such a brilliant ode to the cartridge that stole so many hours of my childhood. Not just a like, but LOVE this!
There's nothing less than perfection in this musical masterpiece. I didn't feel any jarring aspect, I didn't feel any deviation from the original soundtrack, and ultimately to go above and beyond whatever emotion I had for this song was elevated and given a new meaning. Well done 20/10, 10/10 isn't enough to rate this song.
I bought this track on iTunes about a month and a half ago and I absolutely love the hell out of it! Taking those classic eight bit tracks, and turning them into classical masterpieces is nothing short of incredible.❤
Pontus! You and Matheus have outdone yourselves with this one. One of my all time favorite tracks from Ninja Gaiden. Amazing, simply amazing. You are a godlike composer!
Let's go people The legendary Ninja Ryu Hayabusa is BACK !!! Coming to you in 2021 is the master collection of all 3 ninja gaiden games on PS4,XBOX,PC.
i like the unbreakable determination part a lot, really fresh approach instead of all the questionable rock-remixes.. but still it's such a shame somehow no one seems to "catch" the vow of revenge theme just right, its a dramatic theme, with resolve building from grief, trying to make it sound epic and heroic just makes it lose its power, and unbreakable determination is already the "revenge" answer towards "vows" plead, the contrast of both parts shapes the story, making them sound the same, rips the passion out of both.
Yay! That intro! Anybody else remembering Lee van Cleef, Eli Wallach and Clint Eastwood dueling over the chest of golden dollars? Troll off. Great stuff! 🤟
Oh man, how is it that EVERY SINGLE REMIX you make is amazing Pontus?! I love this so much, so many cool unexpected surprises are in this version and I can't stop listening! :)
You rendition are always flawless your doom one was great now this. I still want a new Ninja Gaiden. With all the stealth games nowaday it would fit to have a reboot with some stealth in it.
And bought. I think at this point I own almost 75% of your stuff. Will you do the end theme of Ninja Gaiden 2 and Ryu and Irene after that song. Please!! I’ll buy it. I’ll go to iTunes and 5 star your songs I bought also.
Pontus Hultgren Music man I hope it isn’t, the ending theme for Ninja Gaiden 2 is why I beat the game over and over back when I was a child. Hell I still listen to it thank god for UA-cam cause now 30 or so years later I can’t get past level 3... well if you do the ending theme and Ryu and Irene (I think that’s what it’s called. Know I will buy those also. Oh I only 5 stared two of your albums thus far. I kinda forgot the rest.
Outside of Final Fantasy VII, this is probably my favorite series of all time, and you are KILLING IT!!!!! Please tell my you have more Ninja Gaiden planned!!!!
If the original trilogy were to be remade to be like the XBOX reboots, this should be used for the announcement track...I can see how it would go! First, we hear NOT this track, but silence at first as two Ninjas, highlighted by silhouette circle one another, the field becoming painfully familiar as the background becomes clearer and clearer...the intro we know but redone, (updated music?), Then as the slash goes through, we hear this track fade in and we hear Ken Hayabusa's voice at first as we see Ken fall before it fades to Ryu's voice, cutting to him reading his father's last letter...Then we zoom in on Ryu (showing a measured fury on his face) as he resolves not just to avenge his father but also figure out WHY he would get into such a fatal duel... Then Unbreakable Determination gets going, we see Ryu fighting through the city and cutting down thugs, commandos and ninja, with enough blood to tell that it'll get messy (like in Ninja Gaiden 2 (XBOX) as we will soon see), with Irene coming in (looking like a healthy mix of her DoA appearance and her NES appearance) pointing a gun at Ryu, then we see the word 'Ninja' Next we get Ashtar's little evil rant followed by Ryu being seen again, this time cutting his way through the Tower of Chaos, a demon gets cut to sashimi along with several others in one glorious Ultimate Attack, seeing Essence Orbs fly into him before hand. Then the words 'Gaiden'. Then, we get Ryu working his way through the city with the news report that condemns him for being Irene Lew's 'murderer', doding Police Helicopters and the like as he is working to prove his innocence, then cut to him ascending the Ghost Ship of Doom, finally, the word 'Saga' comes in...Then we get the three words together and a release date...then a cut to Ryu facing off against The Jaquio, his blade glimmering before we see Ashtar standing against Ryu who has Irene behind him, wounded, before the blade glimmers again and we see, from Ryu's eyes, Evil Ryu from Ghost Ship of Doom, then the trailer fades out...
The issue is that there will be two Ryu. Nintendo tries not to include too many characters with similar name unless they are clones or an alternative character ala Dr. Mario or Toon Link.
@@ChrizzyGotAFatGlizzy if he joined smash i feel hed be similar to bylth in the sense of weapon variations but will mostly be a short ranged sword fighter

Listening to this again since the trailer for the new game drop
This will play when Ryu Hayabusa joins Smash Bros.
It better. If it doesn’t, I’m gonna be disappointed, and if it’s not even included as one of his songs... let’s not go there...
Ryu Hayabusa NEEDS to be in Smash!!! He's literally the first Ninja in Video Game history for crying out loud! And he debuted on a Nintendo Gaming console no less! I would cry so hard if he truly joins Smash!!!
@@Christin-Eleven We've got 4 more chances.
@@Christin-Eleven I though joe musashi in shinobi from sega came first.
@@user-fH2541 Who? 🤔
This is how the opening to the Ninja Gaiden Movie should go. This is such a brilliant ode to the cartridge that stole so many hours of my childhood. Not just a like, but LOVE this!
Nah, it should be at the end of such a movie. Just standing there in the beginning and then the final dash through minions to the big bad.
I mean the there is a Vow of Revenge motif in the beginning which does play in the prelogue cutscene.
Final boss fight..much better
I agree to you. This MUST be remembered in MILLIONS of people, and become popular. I really want a Ninja Gaiden movie.
Check out my physique, I may have what it takes to play Ryu in a movie lol.
I've never had tears come as quickly to my eyes as at 0:50. Holy hell... There are no words...
Good Lord...
The fact that this doesn't have over a hundred thousand views or thousands of likes is unacceptable.
Doc Louis no kidding, jfc this is good
Despite his excellence, Pontus is still a lesser-known youtuber.
Halfway there!
You asked?
Well, it does now.
If they ever do a remaster of NG 1-3, they should totally hire you to rearrange all those classics. This sounds sick!
master collections is the remaster. unless you've talking about remake
ninja gaiden trilogy is on snes and its version is worse
They did a new game now
Glad to have been a part of this, Pontus! Your orchestrations are fantastic. Looking forward to the next one!! =D
Superb work Matheus!
@@Vestner262 Thank you very much! I'm glad you like it!!
Brazuca na parada?!
- Parabéns Matheus!
@@bobmussini Brasileiro é um bicho que consegue se enfiar em todo lugar do mundo, hahaha!
I can walk through a brick wall after hearing this. It's epic.
You perfectly got the essence of the spaghetti western style Ninja vibe! Awesome!
There's nothing less than perfection in this musical masterpiece. I didn't feel any jarring aspect, I didn't feel any deviation from the original soundtrack, and ultimately to go above and beyond whatever emotion I had for this song was elevated and given a new meaning.

20/10, 10/10 isn't enough to rate this song.
Finally, my exact thoughts
I bought this track on iTunes about a month and a half ago and I absolutely love the hell out of it! Taking those classic eight bit tracks, and turning them into classical masterpieces is nothing short of incredible.❤
Five years later. Still fucking amazing.
I don't understand how you're not more popular. Literally some of my favorite versions of songs have come from your channel.
Pontus actually does pretty well for himself. He does work for more than just UA-cam. Seems like this stuff is mostly just his hobby.
Can you contact Nintendo to put this into smash k thx
Ninja Gaiden Ragebound's trailer totally should have used this. Unbreakable Determination is THE soul of the Ryu Hayabusa.
Pontus! You and Matheus have outdone yourselves with this one. One of my all time favorite tracks from Ninja Gaiden. Amazing, simply amazing. You are a godlike composer!
Man. Just add 4-2 to the name of the video. Will bring tons of viewers.
Your work deserves to be known.
Let's go people The legendary Ninja Ryu Hayabusa is BACK !!! Coming to you in 2021 is the master collection of all 3 ninja gaiden games on PS4,XBOX,PC.
Dude... THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH! This gave me goosebumps! I'm literally in tears from this. It's BEAUTIFUL!
Music that moves the soul is the best music one could hear
Dustin Gonzalez agreed
Hope for ninja Gaiden 4!!! Ryu shall return!!!!!!! Like if u want ninja Gaiden to return!
indeed same here dude it gave me goosebumps @1:23 and especially the whole music tho
Brilliant. Loved the intro, too. My two favorite pieces of music in the game, and you linked them nicely.
i like the unbreakable determination part a lot, really fresh approach instead of all the questionable rock-remixes..
but still it's such a shame somehow no one seems to "catch" the vow of revenge theme just right, its a dramatic theme, with resolve building from grief, trying to make it sound epic and heroic just makes it lose its power, and unbreakable determination is already the "revenge" answer towards "vows" plead, the contrast of both parts shapes the story, making them sound the same, rips the passion out of both.
I see that you based the intro on "Deep Purple - Apri" like Ninja Gaiden did, but took more elements from it.
Good Work.
Awesome work as always, I love that combination of epic orchestral elements and the guitar both very well done :)
Wow... can't believe I'm just now coming across this. Amazing work. Exactly what I was looking for.
I listen to the ost until this day. This is crazy good
Glorioso.
Me han crecido huevos en los pelos escuchando esto.
That is some awesome Morricone stuff right there at the beginning.
how does a masterpiece like this have less than 100k views????
Holy shurikens!
\\mm//
Yay! That intro! Anybody else remembering Lee van Cleef, Eli Wallach and Clint Eastwood dueling over the chest of golden dollars? Troll off. Great stuff! 🤟
Oh man, how is it that EVERY SINGLE REMIX you make is amazing Pontus?! I love this so much, so many cool unexpected surprises are in this version and I can't stop listening! :)
Esta canción me eleva el espiritu, la pongo antes de comenzar rutina de jercicios y motiva.
This is pure gold! :)
Coming back to listen to this again after a good bit. I knew what I was in for. STILL pulled tears. Holy SHIT, that's good music!!!!
Never played this game. Never heard this before.
This is just awesome.
Tecmo should contact you about their next Ninja Gaiden project, hopefully we'll see a new one in this coming generation.
Amazing work, been searching for a true Orchestra NG feel.. and this is it.!!!!
Hard to believe this tracks comes from an 1989 Nes game. The entire soundtrack is a gem. It should be recorded with an entire orchestra.
Wonderful
Needs to be freaking ranked like Bloody Tears from Castlevania. Beautiful.
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate X NINJA GAIDEN
Fortfarande bästa verionen jag hört av denna, tack ska du ha.
I listened to every remix I could find this one amazing.
The start up of this song is genuine in setting the mode. Amp up any old school fan of this game. ❤
You rendition are always flawless your doom one was great now this. I still want a new Ninja Gaiden. With all the stealth games nowaday it would fit to have a reboot with some stealth in it.
I'm loving the guitars! :D
Also great arrangement :)
First part sounds a bit like MGS series music IMO.
It’s pretty good…
1:20
Simply magnificent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It has very strong vibes of gerudo valley in certain parts
Amazing.
And bought. I think at this point I own almost 75% of your stuff. Will you do the end theme of Ninja Gaiden 2 and Ryu and Irene after that song. Please!! I’ll buy it. I’ll go to iTunes and 5 star your songs I bought also.
Thank you for the support man! This was likely a one-off for Ninja Gaiden for now, but I'll be working with Matheus on similar projects
Pontus Hultgren Music man I hope it isn’t, the ending theme for Ninja Gaiden 2 is why I beat the game over and over back when I was a child.

Know I will buy those also. Oh I only 5 stared two of your albums thus far. I kinda forgot the rest.
Wow, I’m mostly speechless; this is so hard to choose on what I like more, either this remix or Johnny Atma’s remix.
Outside of Final Fantasy VII, this is probably my favorite series of all time, and you are KILLING IT!!!!! Please tell my you have more Ninja Gaiden planned!!!!
This was most likely a one-and-done for the series, but I'm going to work more with Matheus Manente on similar projects in the future!
@@PontusHultgren You tease!
The fu...g masterpiece
Outstanding!! I love everything!
So good
This is fantastic. Can I use this in my Ninja Gaiden Black modding project? I think this would be best suited for when Ryu ascends the Core.
Sure thing!
@@PontusHultgren Done and it sounds great! ua-cam.com/video/X3lE--QmmOQ/v-deo.html
Pontus, be always brave!
I suscribe! Really a master piece of music and nostalgy.
Epic!
Ryu Hayabusa izuna drops into the competition!
My tears fall...
Wait...
I cry.... ?
Subhanallah...
Beauty instrumental..
THANKS!
Just playing on ninja gaiden collection on pc with this song on background
And megaman x4,x5 and X6 too... I hope youre life successfull!! Big fans from Indonesian...
1:30 you can start to loop from here.

beatıfullll :D so niceeee
Why so few likes! This is a masterpiece!
Damn that remix slaps, man !
Underrated video
Yeah y'all did that
Why this opening about 1:30 long?
Man... I would have liked to see Ryu hayabusa as the final character of Smash Bros Ultimate... well it will be for the other smash.
The issue is that there will be two Ryu. Nintendo tries not to include too many characters with similar name unless they are clones or an alternative character ala Dr. Mario or Toon Link.
@@VOANJust call him Hayabusa then. That's literally what they call him in the DOA games
This is WAY too great to not be in Smash!!!
I Want Ryu hayabusa For smash
He is another guy with a sword i know. but, i think he will be the best swordfighter if he joins
He's not just a sword fighter he has tons of weapons 😎
@@ChrizzyGotAFatGlizzy if he joined smash i feel hed be similar to bylth in the sense of weapon variations but will mostly be a short ranged sword fighter
This should have way more views
thx for this :)
Now... *_now_* you're playing with power.
One word (goosebumps)
This is wonderful.
And then I pressed 1.25 speed...
This is the absolute tits. Thanks Pontus and Matheus. And Keiji Yamagishi and Ryuichi Nitta of course.
the fuckin flute sequence after that one phrase is amazing
Wish I could play this legendary music
Legendary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
- WOW!!!!
A classic
2K likes with mine today. You deserve 10 times that!
Bravo
I still can hear this in 2024... Omg
From 0.27 to 1.12, it kind of sounds like a sapegtti western theme.
Fitting since in fiction, they fit a similar mythos.
Great 👍
Like Ninja Gaiden meets Earth Defense Force. It's perfect 😍
Nothing beats the original 8 bit sound
I just love this so fucking much
COOL
