    Beautifully drawn sprites with added frames of animation over the Ninja Warriors SNES port it’s a remake of. It has a standout soundtrack and has widescreen support now too. If you have nostalgia and fond memories of the arcade original or SNES re-release then you’ll want to pick this up, it’s definitively the best version. But if you’re not familiar with the originals then you may wantBeautifully drawn sprites with added frames of animation over the Ninja Warriors SNES port it’s a remake of.

But if you’re not familiar with the originals then you may want to pass. There isn’t much material or replay value. It has unlockable characters but they all have a very limited moveset. I think the game in general is far too limited in every aspect for any newcomers.… Expand

    While I would have personally preferred the addition of three player support, or even extra stages or modes, Natsume and Project Tengo did a great job of resurrecting a classic for modern audiences and adding two new playable characters. Other cool features include a timer to encourage speed runs, with online leaderboard support, and being able to unlock the soundtracks from the original and the ’94 games. Beautiful sprite art and animation, and a nostalgic-inducing soundtrack add wonderfully to the experience as well.

    The Ninja Saviors: Return of the Warriors is worth playing through once or twice and after that, you've experienced all it has to offer.

    The Ninja Saviors needs little introduction, proving to be as faithful to the SNES classic as one can get. The updated presentation and new characters make this a one-way trip worth playing once again.
