    The excellent presentation and style is marred by the sixteen character password system and occasional level design flaws.

    There's a really good game here trying to get out, unfortunately, the lightning wasn't captured in a bottle this time - it struck square on the head.

    The game's play control and animation are a little rough, but overall, it provides lots of action and thrills. [Jan 2003, p.174]

    It's a shame that Shinobi uses a password save, because I really would have dug this game if it wasn't for this blunder. [Feb 2003, p.110]

    Rarely rises above the level of a typical side-scrolling combat title.

    The graphics are generic, but the audio presentation is quite nice. The GBA has a large library of average side-scrolling action games, and Revenge of Shinobi is just a slight notch above them.
