I have Legend of the Mystical Ninja, but rarely play the game it as it really needed save game feature, TBH. The basic level passwords don't leave you with enough resources to stand much of a chance later on, really. Had it been more forgiving and had save games it'd be as good as it is lauded to be, IMO. That said, it was one of that first games to convert me to the wonders of Japanese games design, and was a revelation (in the positive sense) to play in 1993 as an Amiga owner.

Last night we kicked things off with Twilight Princess HD and then moved over to Knights Of The Round. Once again Mart used up the majority of the credits, leaving me to die on my own.
We also played a fair bit of Cosmo Gang, which is let down by sharing lives (although the challenges are a lot easier) played a little bit Cybernator (which is great, but I was distracted by the Coleco Chameleon car crash) and finished off the night with California Games. A shorter night than usual as we both felt crappy, but good fun all the same.
Oh and we played Super Empire Strikes Back for a while, but it really isn't very good.

Played it to death on an arcade cab at a holiday camp in spain in the early 90s. I thought it was the best game ever, way better than any home scrolling brawler I'd seen (I had no idea it had been ported). I got a bit of a surprise when I finally played it again as an adult in 2007 (it was on a PSP-only Capcom retro collection), when I found out it was just a reasonably good game.
Given, though, it wasn't the practically audible shattering of a delusion that happened when I played the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Arcade re-release on the Xbox 360...

Also, Capcom released the similar The King of Dragons on the SNES. I need to go back to both and see which one is best.

But will you be able to fit it in your gaming cave/shed?
