Ninja Gaiden is my favorite NES series of all time and I'm pretty damn good at it. But that wasn't always the case! Many put it on their hardest games ever list and for good reason. In this video I look back at the trials I went through as a kid to become good at this game and eventually a Master Ninja.
If you enjoyed this video please don't forget to LIKE and SUSCRIBE and give me feedback in the comments. This is my first ever real YouTube video and I welcome the recommendations.
This video is not a review of the game, but a funny and entertaining homage along with tips and tricks. That includes the glitch you can exploit on the hardest part of level 6-2, making it easier to reach the final boss.
If it wasn't for the amazing gameplay, incredible music and ost, and revolutionary cutscenes... it may have been relegated to obscurity. Yet despite it's difficulty it endures and is popular for speed run and other creative gameplay. If you don't know this series, I hope this overview is like a spin slash to your heart. Please enjoy my tribute to one of my favorite games of all time - #NinjaGaiden

![The Final History of R-Type
The Final History of R-TYPE Shoot Em Ups - From the original Arcade R-Type in 1987 to R-Type Final 2 in 2021, a complete history of IREMs iconic shoot em up series. R-Type is arguably the most well known shooter next to Konamis Gradius and has graced over a dozen home systems, from the Sega Master System to the Super Nintendo, TurboGrafx, MSX, Playstation, Amiga and many more. Often imitated but never duplicated, the combination of devious, puzzle like gameplay and alien atmosphere made R-Type one of the best selling arcade games of its time. Do you have a favorite R-Type? Do you know them all? With the new R-Type Final 2 release just around the corner, discover something new about this legendary IREM series. And pay homage to the almighty Dobkeratops, the most recognizable boss monster in all of shmups.
