Game only: the cartridge in a protective holder, no box or manual. For the specifics, look to the photos — they're of this exact cartridge. Every cartridge's shell, label and board are checked for authenticity when it comes into the store, and it's tested before it's listed. It ships in a collector's bag or a hard plastic case.

Item Description

Joe Musashi moves like no other hero on the Genesis. In Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master he dashes, kicks off walls to scale vertical shafts, dives into flying kicks, hangs from ceilings and rains shuriken from the top of a somersault, and once those moves click together the game flows like a choreographed fight scene. Sega took the deliberate, punishing formula of The Revenge of Shinobi and gave it speed, and the result is regularly ranked among the best action games on the console.

The Neo Zeed syndicate has returned, and the stages keep the surprises coming. One has Joe galloping through enemies on horseback; another sends him surfing across open water; others take him through forests, industrial complexes and laboratories crawling with mutated creatures and cyborg soldiers. Bosses are big and varied, and Joe's ninjutsu magic gives you four answers to a desperate moment: a protective lightning shield, a fire-dragon attack, a super jump, or the Mijin, which blows Joe up to obliterate everything on screen at the cost of a life. Shuriken are limited, so deciding when to throw and when to close in with the blade keeps every encounter tense.

Known in Japan as The Super Shinobi II, it is the fourth Shinobi game and a direct sequel to The Revenge of Shinobi, and it feels like the moment the series hit its stride on home consoles. The controls are precise, the animation is fluid, and the soundtrack matches the action with a driving, synth-heavy edge that never lets the energy drop.

If you want to understand why Sega's 16-bit action games still command such a devoted following, start here. Shinobi III is short enough to master over a weekend, demanding enough to respect and stylish from the first stage to the last, and the definitive way to play Joe Musashi on the hardware he was made for.
