Another asshole. Fuck, I'll play it once i finish my mvs super gun.EvilWasabi:
This is pretty much my sentiment as well. When I first saw Ninja Masters displayed as an upcoming game in 1996 off the neogeo.co.jp site, I didn't give a shit. But then when I downloaded the roms and played it on neorage, I was floored. I had to own the game, and so now I do.
The thing about gaming in 1996 was how easy it was to overlook anything that wasn't already established. Last Blade 1 could have beena forgotten game if there wasn't a last blade 2 in 1998 (actually, to a degree, last blade 1 is very underappreciated) - it's just the time period. People were too busy playing other stuff like Tekken 2, Killer instinct 2, Soul Edge, and VF2. Not me, but then I was too focused on SFA2, SSIV, SSIII and ... SSIII. So seeing some no name fighter come out was not too exciting. Especially seeing the ADK logo on it. Back then, my tastes weren't refined enough to understand that ADK kicked ass.
But today, Ninja Masters is one of my most appreciated games. Definitely worth every peeny as a collectors item, and as a gaming piece, priceless.

Firstly, Kazuya, damn good review there. Top notch.
Ninja Master's has:
1) Best single character in a fighter ever (Karasu)
2) Best combo system I've ever played- don't believe the 'dial-a-combo' BS- this game will reward you, you will start to feel that you've never had such complete control over a fighter. You'll start kicking the crap out of the guy you're playing, and then just sheath your weapon and kick his ass without it- just to show him the degree of ownage you've dropped down upon him. I've played this game 3-4 times a week for a year and I STILL DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING
3) In the top 5 Neo games for best backgrounds.
4) Some of the Neo's best game music, knitting together the Neo's best and most fully realised running theme in any of their fighters, ever.
Don't listen to Rade and Bobak, they've been in Bobak's carport huffing model airplane glue.
Ninja Master's is one of the best playing fighters ever coded. Awesome depth that people 'don't get' for reasons that are pretty unclear. -But I have my theories:
Theory A) Came out in 96- and didn't 'wow' people with the sort of over the top graphics SamSho3 and 4 did. NM went with smaller, tighter, slightly more detailed with very tight animation and blazing fast game speed.
Theory B) People, since they didn't play this game much decided it played like Killer Instinct or some other combo 'gimmick' game and dismissed it.
Theory C) People simply haven't played it enough to scatch the surface, let alone begin to appreciate it's depth.

NM isnt to bad, but its extremely loose combo wise. I like some of the bg's and stuff. Something is just missing in it.SonGohan:
This game is a bitch to get on MVS. There must have been like 3 people I've made attempts to get this from after they've made posts in the selling forum and they just never respond (FTL was one of them, bitch). I'm destined to never own this game
I hear ya on that one, it took me a while to be able to pick it up. You are gonna hate me for this I know, but I bought FTL's NM cart... sorry manSonGohan:

I'm sure he didn't do it on purpose... he did have a lot of people emailing/messaging him so he probably missed your msg... I don't think he wouldn't reply on purpose. I'm sure you'll find the game sooner or later though... I have to go on a search for Waku Waku 7 soon when I have the cash, should be fun winkSonGohan:
I've played the rom, I like it, and want it for my MVS collection. I love loose combo systems, and this fighter isn't bad by any means, and is a great Neo asset. I don't have a problem with people not selling it to me rather not getting a simple "it's sold" msg, especially when I send pms AND email. I'll own this game.. somebody..
It's all good man. He just PM'd me saying he had another one coming his way soon. Now it's only a matter if I can scrounge enough cashKazuya_UK:

Well said, NM is a gem, I love the gameplay, the action, the dark atmosphere/tone of the game, the music is foreboding as well.... One of my favorite Neo fighters, too bad there was never a sequel!neobuyer:

Just out of interest, how are the load times on the Neo Geo CD version?SEGA_X:
Great review
Ninja Masters is one of my favorite game I have for Neo geo cd.
Just curious, what do you mean by a 'loose' combo system? most of the combo's seem pre-determined... then again, I have trouble doing a 2 in 1 on this game. I'd love to be able to figure out how the combo system works on this game. Somebody get this guy a NM cart!SonGohan:

I volunteer fan art of Karasu, Goemon and KamuiKazuya_UK:
Yeah, what we need is a good Ninja Masters tribute site. I'd be up for helping out with something like that, in fact it could be hosted on my site if there was enough interest in it? If there are any experts at the game that could either make vids, do some in depth combo FAQ's or anything like that, or someone that could put together a nice design/gfx for it, post here and maybe we could do it. Ninja Masters deserves more exposure
You have trouble doing 2 in 1s in this game? I mean, there's a lot of old Street Fighter-ish combos that work in this game (ie: jump in P, crouch L, cancel into fireball with Sasuke). It's easy for me to get those off.. it's just digging deeper into the engine to figure out other, more complex combos.thundr51:

Game isn't overrated. The price certainly is tho on home cart.Bobak:
overrated, worth only the MVS money, if that.
Around 25 secs. for initial loading, 8 secs. for the chara menu and then about 20-30 secs. between the levels. It does not load between rounds.Kazuya_UK:
