    Hello Joe! We dive into one of the early titles that helped define what the Sega Megadrive could do and also created a franchise it's The Revenge of Shinobi/The Super Shinobi! We dive into the making of the game, take a look at some of its design choices and cover a timeline that ends up having more in common with Back to the Future than it does the American Ninja craze of the 1980s.
