Here is a very high scoring complete playthrough on the Light Gun Game Ninja Assault/ニンジャアサルト released by Namco in 2000. Enjoy that amazing voice acting! I don't mind if you just do comments of the dialogue used!

This is a run from 2010 from the PlayStation 2 version which I never uploaded on here, because at the time I was trying my best to get No Miss Damage and High Scoring on the same run. However the only way to score high is to have 100% accuracy, which makes the No Damage much more difficult to achieve, 1 missed shot can result in being hit, and this shows a few times in the run!
I never scored higher than this run, but I'm happy with it.

Ninja Assault feels a bit more like a House of the Dead meets Virtua Cop, with a bit of Time Crisis scoring. It also requires shooting outside of the screen to reload (unless if you are playing the PlayStation 2 version and using the GunCon 2, where you can just touch a button. I am using the original GunCon, so I'm shooting outside of the screen all the time!) The arcade suffers some due to enemies being in areas of the screen that the gun would fail to shoot, which made the game unclearable, like many Time Crisis 1 machines.

A normal complete run when shooting all over the place would score you around 200-300,000, and this can be beaten from just doing 100% accuracy on the first 2 stages.
The scoring system is rather basic, you are rewarded 500 points for every 10 shots in a row, which increases up until it reaches 5,000, a scoring system used in Time Crisis 2 and 3. However there isn't much other scoring involved, so the whole game reloves around leaving enemies until you can shoot them safely without missing, or leaving enemies to shoot projectiles, as these count as hits and slowly increase the score even more.
There are some enemies that reward 1,000 or 5,000, and secret items that do the same too, some of these are very hard to shoot, so are not always worth aiming for, if you have a high combo running. All health items reward 5,000 points if you have full health, and the end of stage bonus is also 5,000 if you have full health.

Thanks for watching!
