8 BIT NOSTALGIA ๐ฅน #ninjagaiden #nintendo #nes
203Oh boy, let's dive into the pixelated past and talk about how videogames have evolved from just arcade-style button mashers to epic sagas with plot twists that could rival a Hollywood blockbuster! Back in the day, like 20 years ago, storylines in games were as thin as a Game Boy screen in direct sunlight. Think of those old-school games where the story was just a sprinkle on the gameplay sundae. Take "Zelda II: The Adventure of Link" for example โ apart from a bit of opening text, the game was pretty much all about the gameplay, with the story tucked away in the instruction manual like a secret cheat code.
But then, enter "Ninja Gaiden" for the NES, and boom! Video game storytelling got a power-up. This wasnโt just any game; it was like the plot twist in a season finale of your favorite show. The moment you hit start, you're not just thrown into another side-scroller; you're greeted with a cutscene that could give some movies a run for their money. Picture this: two ninjas locked in a dramatic duel in a field, and one falls, revealing himself to be the father of the game's hero, Ryu Hayabusa. Ryu finds a letter from his fallen father, and just like that, you're not just playing a game, you're unraveling a mystery. "Ninja Gaiden" didn't just have killer gameplay and rage-inducing difficulty; it had a story that grabbed you by the joystick and didnโt let go. And that, my friends, is how a little game with a big story changed the game for, well, games!
