Play Ninjawarriors Again, The Online

Summary

The Ninja Warriors Again (often just called Ninja Warriors) feels like a love letter to classic arcade beat‑'em‑ups, but with the SNES’s vibrant color palette and smooth animation. You pick one of three ninja androids, each with its own speed, power and move set, and the game rewards you for mastering their dashes, jumps, throws and even the occasional power‑meter‑charged screen‑clear. Environmental hazards—minefields, helicopters, even ride‑able motorcycles—add a chaotic flair, while oversized items like safes become improvised weapons you can hurl at foes.

Developed by the Natsume crew that later birthed Wild Guns, the title carries a surprisingly arcade‑quality feel, with large sprites and tight, responsive controls that critics praised alongside its bright, shaded backgrounds. The only real letdown is the absence of a two‑player co‑op, which makes the eight‑stage run feel a bit short despite unlimited continues. Collectors still hunt the various regional releases, especially because the Western versions swapped a few female ninja enemies for male sprites, adding a quirky bit of censorship history to its legacy.

Storyline

In the SNES game Ninjawarriors Again, a bleak future is ruled by Banglar the Tyrant, a dwarfish mutant‑cyborg who commands brainwashed soldiers, vicious mutants and soulless combat robots. A rebel force led by a human dictator named Mulk cannot defeat Banglar with conventional weapons, so they launch a desperate strike using three self‑aware combat androids that look like Japanese ninjas. The androids are equipped with internal explosives and must fight through Banglar’s mutant legion to reach his fortress. When they finally confront Banglar, they kill him and the built‑in bombs detonate, destroying both the tyrant and the androids.
Months later Mulk assumes the presidency of the World Government, retrieves the androids’ core data and rebuilds the AI. The technology keeps evolving, making Mulk’s new army even stronger. Ironically, Mulk becomes as tyrannical as the fallen Banglar, continuing the cycle of oppression.
