It is just unbelievable how short the game is comparing with how it felt when I was a little kid, felt like a whole movie back then. Every sound fx and music bring me right back to the arcade at the mall. The most precious memories of how wonderful and simple life was.
He's going very fast, most people would move through the levels a bit slower. I have seen videos that are considerably longer and it just feels more enjoyable to watch and a bit more epic in scale like you were describing.
Ah man defo one of my all time favourite arcade games from the 80’s.. Some great memories as a kid hanging about in the arcades or skipping school to play this in the local chip shop!! The game blew my little mind and was way before it’s time! 👌🏿
were from by saying school and chip shop sounds like uk. in uk you either had arcade games in seaside resort or your video shop or local chippy by the 90s all virtually vanished.
I am SO THERE with you on EVERYTHING you just said! And all those companies (along with Konami, SNK, and Taito) were the dominant forces in arcade games during the 1987-1994 period.
Indeed, until Namco said fuck it all, and came out with Tekken. 16 bit home game systems couldn't render a completely faithful translation/duplication/interpretation of even 2D arcade games, but once the original Tekken came along in late 1994, necessitating the release of the Playstation system, it brought about the beginning of the end of arcade game culture. Yeah, Capcom kept it alive for the remainder of the 20th century with: Darkstalkers (1994); Street Fighter Alpha Warriors Dreams (1995); X-Men: Children of the Atom (1995); Marvel Super Heroes (1995); X-Men vs. Street Fighter (1996); Street Fighter vs. Marvel Super Heroes (1997), and Marvel vs. Capcom (1998)... but the living room duels and campaigns in Tekken 2, Soul Blade, Resident Evil, Tekken 3, Golden Eye, Metal Gear Solid, Perfect Dark, and Marvel vs. Capcom 2 during the same time period on the Playstation, Nintendo 64, and Sega Dreamcast systems were nothing less than paradigm shifting.
Yeh weather it is a tool assisted long play, it was some what???. Confusing, but he should do some cool ass dead or alive next???. That would be👍 Epic 👍...
I thought I was a good player for Shinobi until I saw this longplay. You have also done what very few in the world can say they have done: 1. Beat the game on one life 2. Perfect bonus stages 3. End with a score over 300,000 points You did them all in one shot, using only your very first life. Congratulations, and I take my hat off to you, while bowing down to you and saying "I'm not worthy of such greatness!" Outstanding!!!! :)
I remember playing this at 7 eleven in 1990. Love the cool music. Good times. I miss the days of seeing all the arcade machines at the donut shops, laundromat, liqour stores, etc.
Right! i could never get past those *Flying Ninjas* in the JUNGLE 12:45 i always wondered how a person was able to figure it out... in a arcade setting Good times :]
Hellwyck ahh interesting. Thanks. My view of the world was quite strange because i thought Jacks (from the game where you bounce the balls into the Jacks) were somehow related to this game because some of the enemies looked like Jacks. It was quite confusing.
1987, the golden age of the arcade started when the graphics of the computers and consoles couldnt compete, Shinobi was among the best hits of its time.
Yea, when I was about 7 I was able to beat this game on one quarter and without dying. My friend used to bet people at the pizza parlor. Great confidence builder at the time.
I just noticed something. When Musashi uses ninja magic, he shouts "TERIYAAA!" What's cool about this is that in Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic shouts the same thing in that one scene where he takes out the Egg Golem in the Dark side part of the story. Neat, huh?
Respect to your ninja skills man. Playing this as an adult and this shit is way harder than I remember! Don't think I ever clocked it and, looking at that final boss, probably never will.
It's easy doing that when you use an Emulator with TAS Features. Should be pretty well known by now, that World of Longplays doesn't do legit playthroughs.
Wow...you ever you are that played this game...you are a champ!! When I used to play this game, I could never get passed the 2nd level!! Whoo-wee! You are good!
I played this game for years on the arcades when I was a kid. Never seen it played so perfectly though. Thanks for the post as I never did see the ending to this game.
This Version has all the Missions written in Japanese. In English, They are as Follows: Mission 1: PURSUE THE TERRORISTS Mission 2: ENTER THE ENEMY'S HIDEOUT Mission 3: ATTACK THE LOGISTIC BASE Mission 4: DESTROY THE ENEMY NINJA GROUP Mission 5: DEFEAT THE "BEHIND-THE-SCENE" NINJA
i spent more quarters on this game than any other arcade game ever. $5 in quarters at a time and only made it to Lobster at the end of stage 4. the soundtrack is so nostalgic.
i could never get past the Flying Ninjas in the JUNGLE 12:45 i always wondered how a person was skilled enough to do it. *NO CONTINUES* on the final Mission!! :]
What i loved about this was the different colours of ninja, they each had different moves - that fired my imagination as a kid... Especially because you only really see the blue ninja in full action in the last few stages.
Totally agree, multi-coloured Ninja's are such a cool concept, it kind of makes it more story/movie like having the distinct enemies and variations to their attacks.
mission 1 finish welcome to bonus stage i love it when he says that truley a master picec use to play this at the local arcades years ago i have this on mame on pc i love it besides shadow dancer can never get to old to play this game and im 35
One of the best classic games of all time. As soon as I got a Super Retrocade I loaded Shinobi onto it and I STILL haven't gotten a perfect score on the challenge stage! No worries though, it's an awesome classic game. Thanks for the video!
What do you think of its successors such as Shadow Dancer, the Game Gear games, and the 16-bit games? Trying to figure out for myself what the best Shinobi games are.
@@TheDutchGhost Shinobi is the only one I've ever played so I couldn't really give an opinion on the other's. I like the classic, 8-bit stuff pretty much exclusively. Played a couple Wii games once or twice and that was pretty cool. Sorry, wish I could give you some insight my friend. Thanks again for the video buddy!
Qué recuerdos me trae este juego cuando yo era más joven jugaba en una papelería este juego y gastada bastante monedas en Shinobi fue el mejor juego que yo jugué
So let me get something straight. In the timeline for the series, didn't this game take place before the three Genesis Shinobi titles (i.e. Revenge of Shinobi, Shadow Dancer, & Shinobi III)?
There are actually two Shadow Dancer games, +Christopher Littlejohn. The first one was made for the Arcade and the second one was made for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive. Here is what seems to be the most sensible timeline of events, though not by order of actual game releases. Shinobi Legions/Shinobi X/Shin Shinobi Den - Sega Saturn Shinobi/Shinobi 3D - 3DS/2DS Shinobi - Arcade/NES/FDS/SMS/MS-DOS/MSX/Commodore 64/Atari ST/Amiga/ZX Spectrum/IBM PC/NEC PC Engine/TurboGrafx16/3DS/2DS/Wii(Virtual Console)/Xbox 360 (Xbox Live) The Revenge of Shinobi/The Super Shinobi - Sega Genesis/Mega Drive/Xbox 360/PS3/Android iOS/3DS/2DS/Wii (Virtual Console)/Steam Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master/The Super Shinobi II - Sega Genesis/Mega Drive/PS2/PS3/Xbox Original/Xbox 360/Android iOS/3DS/2DS The Game Gear Shinobi/Shinobi (Game Gear) - Sega Game Gear/3DS/2DS The Game Gear Shinobi II: The Silent Fury - Sega Game Gear Shadow Dancer: The Secret of Shinobi - Sega Genesis/Mega Drive/PS2/Steam/3DS/2DS Shadow Dancer - Arcade/SMS/ZX Spectrum/Commodore 64/Amiga/Atari ST The Cyber Shinobi - SMS Shinobi - PS2/PS3 (PSN)/PS4 (PSN) Nightshade/Kunoichi - PS2 Project X Zone 2 - 3DS/2DS
It's fucked up on the Sega Master system, all you got was "The End" and that was it, you didn't even get that little ending you saw here.....I was crushed as a kid when I only saw that :(...
Not in my wildest dreams could I EVER beat this game in just a little over 15 minutes. In fact, if it wasn't for MAME cheats, I would have never saw the end of this game. Monty Mole, you are a gaming god.
They used to have this arcade game in the Kimberley Queen in Tollcross. I did finish it without losing a life. I can't remember if I did all the bonus sections. They were fast.
Finished this on 1 quarter 2 lives back in the day. Was able to do almost all levels without using a throwing star. Except bosses tho. Bought this very version for my Sega master system? I think it was called. One before the Genesis. It was OK for a home system back then. A better game for the master system was Kenseiden I think it was called. Japanese samurai game. Loved that game
I hated the first part of Mandara (stage 3 boss), with all the statues. I would always die once before getting past them, unless I successfully used the Ninja Magic trick - hit Ninja Magic when you're in the air and really close to the statues, and when the magic ends, you end up inside them. Hold the joystick to the left, and you'll bounce back and forth until you come out the other side. It was very difficult to do, and I was rarely successful.
Wow, how long practice to speedrun this game? I remember, i was a little kid of 11 or 12 years where is see this arcrade first. And i was happy to see the first end-boss when i play it on arcade. Today, i think the leves are short and only the last two bosses are strange. But it's Shinobi and Shinobi was great (and a great childhood-memory too).
Mon dieu que de bons souvenirs avec ce jeu d'arcade. Le nombre d'heures que j'ai passé dessus. Et l'argent dépensé aussi du coup 😅 Je culpabilise pour toutes les pièces que mon père me donnait à l'époque pour ça 😞

I was always so damn envious of how much better Arcade games looked in comparison to console games.
Carl Thomas hahahah yeah man I hear ya there.. 1988 in London @ Tarken’s arcade on Walworth rd.
Wicked memories and times!
Awww..I remember these days, playing Shinobi on arcade at Sack n Save when I was a kid.
The fact that you just ran through this game like it's no big deal is sick! But it brought back memories😊
Yeh weather it is a tool assisted long play, it was some what???. Confusing, but he should do some cool ass dead or alive next???. That would be👍 Epic 👍...
Cuantos recuerdos de la infancia me trae este juego!!
Era uno de mis favoritos, junto al "ghost goblins"
I thought I was a good player for Shinobi until I saw this longplay. You have also done what very few in the world can say they have done:
1. Beat the game on one life
2. Perfect bonus stages
3. End with a score over 300,000 points
You did them all in one shot, using only your very first life. Congratulations, and I take my hat off to you, while bowing down to you and saying "I'm not worthy of such greatness!"
Outstanding!!!! :)
300,000 is nothing. I finished with over 600,000. Not many people know you can get a 20,000 point bonus if you only kick, punch or sword.
@@Z_o_r_r_o1267 Your bullshit smells so bad. Make a video or stfu
I'm pretty sure it's tool-assisted.
This was such a great game when I played it at the arcade when I was a kid and it still holds up really well after all those years!
What an AWESOME soundtrack.
One of the all-time greats!
I love the music so much, it's stuck in my head since I played this game for the first time
I remember playing this at 7 eleven in 1990. Love the cool music. Good times. I miss the days of seeing all the arcade machines at the donut shops, laundromat, liqour stores, etc.
lol so many pop culture character references in this game
Spiderman, Shredder, and even Marilyn Monroe
Shinobi is ABSOLUTELY STUNNING and AWESOMELY AMAZING
True arcade classic, Shinobi Forever.
I for one can not play better. Seeing you go through 5-2 without being touched was mind blowing!!
Right!
i could never get past those *Flying Ninjas* in the JUNGLE 12:45
i always wondered how a person was able to figure it out... in a arcade setting
Good times :]
I've watched this more than 5 times and I can never get tired of it. I enjoy it very much every time I see it. Your performance on here is perfect.
Love watching this. Brings me back to when I was 5 or 6 and my grandma would give me quarters to play this at Thriftway along with Quartet 2.
That'll just be a Quartet machine with 2 players instead of 4.
Hellwyck ahh interesting. Thanks. My view of the world was quite strange because i thought Jacks (from the game where you bounce the balls into the Jacks) were somehow related to this game because some of the enemies looked like Jacks. It was quite confusing.
One of my all time top 5 arcade games here. I miss the old days.....
Nothing pulls me in like watching a playthrough of an old school video game
Oh man, this brings back some good memories. Don't think I ever made it to the last level, though.
Japanese 2D era was phenomenal so many great timeless classics.
Ive neever seen someone so good at at the bonus stages. I could never beat the last one.
1987, the golden age of the arcade started when the graphics of the computers and consoles couldnt compete, Shinobi was among the best hits of its time.
Wow, the sound driver of the Syetem 16 in Mame has been changed dramatically !
I used to play this is Safeway when I was in jr. high. It was a nice upgrade from Moon Patrol, Time Pilot and Karate Champ.
Yea, when I was about 7 I was able to beat this game on one quarter and without dying. My friend used to bet people at the pizza parlor. Great confidence builder at the time.

@@HughJass-313 Answer: I used to watch people that had already done it but the first had to spend a lot of money.
@@budkin
I didn't get good at it until around '94.
Well after its PRIME... so no one to learn from.
But *GREAT* Memories nonetheless
❤😁❤
That was the 2nd best speed run I ever saw for this game..respect, dude!
You played very well... Whenever I look at this video, I remeber my childhood when I was a kid and play this game... I love it!! Have fun!!
Amazing quality!!!!!! Thank you so much for the upload. Very well done.
the game designers really had a thing for Marilyn Monroe.
Paul Contreras
Paul Contreras at that time everybody had ;)
This is a bit after that time.
The Japanese did.
Yooooooo throwback fr.... I use to play this game everyday after school!!!!!
man i still remember this soundtrack
I just noticed something.
When Musashi uses ninja magic, he shouts "TERIYAAA!" What's cool about this is that in Sonic Adventure 2, Sonic shouts the same thing in that one scene where he takes out the Egg Golem in the Dark side part of the story. Neat, huh?
...and they shout the same thing in Crackdown when using the smart bomb.
whoa...
@@Hellwyck same sound engineer
Just the best arcade game ever!
This dude is beyond ridiculous; extremely accurate
@Mr1nce It does look like him in the picture on the title screen.
Sho Kosugi - Revenge Of The Ninja
Wow, to not only get through it without losing a life, but to ace each and every single bonus stage as well, amazing.
Respect to your ninja skills man. Playing this as an adult and this shit is way harder than I remember!
Don't think I ever clocked it and, looking at that final boss, probably never will.
I love Shinobi! I was playing it as a teenager with my friends in a bar and now I am playing it almost every day on Mame emulator! It's great!
who ever played this game had alot of practice...this was my shit tho
I reckon he must have carpal tunnel, from playing all these long plays??? In reply to Chase Blackman...
Damn dude you slaughtered this game and sooo fast, wow.
It's easy doing that when you use an Emulator with TAS Features. Should be pretty well known by now, that World of Longplays doesn't do legit playthroughs.
Eu era muito viciado passava as fases sem atirar, só no golpe.
Hoje 2019 tenho 43 anos ,faz 30 anos atraz. :-)
I remember playing this in the 90s
@cubex55 Fair enough :) - btw, congrats on that 4th bonus stage; never seen anyone complete that, ever :)
Wow...you ever you are that played this game...you are a champ!! When I used to play this game, I could never get passed the 2nd level!! Whoo-wee! You are good!
This the best Shinobi video on youtube. Props.
I played this in the arcade back in the day
dude you are wonderfull no failed no death
Great job in getting the perfect in the bonus stage. That last ninja that popped out would have gotten me. :o)
I played this game for years on the arcades when I was a kid. Never seen it played so perfectly though. Thanks for the post as I never did see the ending to this game.
i remember playing the arcade version of this game at Bromley Collage but i never got the time to finish the game
Is that like Bromley College?
Used to f..kin love this game when I was a kid
Man i loved this game. Will have to try find me a way to get an arcade perfect version to play it again.
This Version has all the Missions written in Japanese. In English, They are as Follows:
Mission 1: PURSUE THE TERRORISTS

:]
I know right? That no continue on level 5 was straight up evil!
Used to love this game. Mission 4, level 2 was as far as I ever got.
The stage two music never gets old.
how many times did you have to edit this to complete all the bonus levels... WELL DONE!!!
Wowww!!im old that was my favorite game.1987.i used to finish this game with one play..now i dont think so🤣🤣🤣🤣
What i loved about this was the different colours of ninja, they each had different moves - that fired my imagination as a kid... Especially because you only really see the blue ninja in full action in the last few stages.
Totally agree, multi-coloured Ninja's are such a cool concept, it kind of makes it more story/movie like having the distinct enemies and variations to their attacks.

I am proud and honoured to say that l played this game in the arcade in the 80's and now I am playing it on my cell phone! I am Ninja!
The last time I see this game was 35 years ago and I still remembered the music.
I still get that bonus stage theme stuck in my head today.
great memories that was the era of really super videos game the kid really enjoy
Jersey !! Corner bodega 26st central ave dope game awesome memories 👍🏼🔥👍🏼🔥 dude you like shinobi master .lmao thx for sharing 💪🏽💯💪🏽💯
You have done well in the ways of the Ninja. Great job in beating the game!
Making the ending have the tone of a backstory was... a decision. :B

Mis memorias regresan con este juego, jugadte perfecto
one of the best games ever invented .
I never could get past the 3rd stage , did I not know about the special power
Awesome performance.
Fantastic gameplay! I had never seen it before! Thanks for posting
They used to have this arcade game in the Kimberley Queen in Tollcross. I did finish it without losing a life. I can't remember if I did all the bonus sections. They were fast.
Never played this game but it looks absolutely BEAST.
I could never beat it with one life. Your a soldier !!!
