I show off the locations of 4 fairly easy to reach special stage rings, in acts 1 and 2 of Green Hill Zone. Use these to get all the emeralds after beating the game! (Just reset the game after using all the rings, they'll become usable when you come back.)
The Act 1 ring is simple, just follow the typical path and you'll find it.
In Act 2, follow the path as high as you can, then as low as you can, then as high as you can, again.
If you mess up following the paths I take, there's usually a way back up, so try exploring a little. I show off some ways to get back up to the first Act 2 ring if you fell down.
The last ring is a bit tricky, you can try getting on top of the double loops here, but if you fall, there's an electric shield you can use nearby that I show off. Falling down here at any point usually prevents you from getting back up though, unless you have Tails to help.
If Tails is around, you can hold up and double jump to make him fly, so he can carry you up to hard to reach spots.
Hope this helps!

![Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master (Full Gameplay Video)
Watch me be a ninja, and kill a lot of people who explode when they die.
The game played is Shinobi 3: Return of the Ninja Master, also known as Super Shinobi 2 in Japan, for the Sega Megadrive. It is a sequel to the arcade game Shinobi and the Megadrive game Revenge of Shinobi (also called Super Shinobi). Its a very fun action platformer, and your control of the character is practically flawless, meaning just moving your character around is a lot of fun. The only issue is that the double jump is hard to pull off, and the game wants you to use it instantly without room for failure in some areas.
You also get to jumpkick with a horse. So theres that.
This video has been edited to remove any deaths. This should all be seamless, assuming I havent missed anything. This is for your entertainment! I am not quite as skilled as I might look. :] Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja Master (Full Gameplay Video)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/nhJp3Eb818M/mqdefault.jpg)
