LOCR Producer: The Shinobi series has always been a really strong series for Sega. Back in the dark days before Sega had a distinct mascot, they had a collection of titles that just defined Sega. Shinobi was one of those titles. I was excited when I first started the Leftover Culture Review about reviewing Shinobi games. Some of my first reviews were on the Mega Drive games, Revenge of Shinobi and Shadow Dancer and Cyber Shinobi on the Master System. Iapos;m sometimes a bit bummed I decided to tackle my favourite Shinobi titles so early because it isnapos;t an easy collection of games to talk about and discuss. This review hasn't been easy either, Shadow Dancer on the Master System is just... very odd. Obviously, it's a great looking game. Shadow Dancer: The Secret of Shinobi came out towards the end of the Sega Master System's lifespan and does a great job showing off what the system could do graphically but it starts to lose what made the first Shinobi game so memorable. This game came out when the Shinobi series was really picking up steam. On the Mega Drive you had both Shadow Dancer and revenge of Shinobi being released around the same time, in the arcades you had the arcade version of Shadow Dancer (totally different to the Mega Drive version) and on the Master System you had Cyber Shinobi and Shadow Dancer: The Secret of Shinobi all released within a couple of years within each other. It's pretty interesting to note that this version of Shadow Dancer, out of all the Shinobi games released on the Mega Drive and in the arcades at the time, was one the latest to be released and because of that, it never reached Japan or the USA.
