The first game in the Shinobi series was released in 1987 on arcade machines, and eventually it was ported to other systems and consoles. Her constant hero is the ninja Joe Musashi, and in the first part he must free his students and deal with the terrorists.
The surrealistic arcade game Fantasy Zone was released in 1985 and was also initially available on an arcade machine. There are eight planets in the Fantasy Zone world, and they are all captured by aliens that look deceptively cute. The living spaceship Opa-Opa has to destroy them all.
Both games will be released on the Nintendo Switch with new features like leaderboards, replays and features designed to make passing easier for today’s players. The premiere will take place on January 23.
