[edit] Women's Bathroom and the Last NES Ninja

I've played 'The Last Ninja' on the NES, so would anyone mind if I added that? Also, mention of interesting jokes and the strange gameplay would be interesting. For example, there is one level with washrooms. You're not able to enter the male but you can enter the female, and if you walk around a bit and click, you hear a toilet flush and you get a special item (I can't remember which though).

[edit] Split it up and then have a The Last Ninja Series page aswell

Personally I think The Last Ninja series should be split up! All the info is there. It just needs to follow a games template.

I agree. A lot of Wikipedia gaming entries have tried to fit whole series into a single entry (see also Shadow of the Beast) but I think this doesn't really work. It would be better if Last Ninja 2 and Last Ninja 3 had their own entries with maybe the information about the forthcoming/cancelled Last Ninja 4 being mentioned on the Last Ninja 3 entry.

[edit] General

Can someone add info on what differentiates last ninja 2 vs the remix?

[edit] CoCo 3 version finally seen.

We finally got to see the unreleased CoCo 3 version at this year's CoCoFest. Pics here: http://web.mac.com/allenhuffman/iWeb/CoCoFest/The%20Last%20Ninja.html (but that's just a temp page for the time being, and will go away.)

[edit] Inconsistence

first it says:

the development company (still System 3) does not seem to give much information in regard to the development status [of Last Ninja 4]. Current rumours surrounding the status of the project indicate it has again been cancelled.

then, after a few lines:

# Last Ninja 4: Xbox and Nintendo GameCube (scheduled), planned but uncertain: PlayStation 2, Game Boy Advance, PC

doesn't make any sense to me. Either it's "scheduled and planned" or "the company does not give informations, maybe it's cancelled".

[edit] Cleanup

I think the article needs cleaning up a bit, especially in regards to citing sources. The references section would also need to be added if your citing sources.

"Confusingly, the 16-bit versions of the original The Last Ninja game were also released in 1990 as Ninja Remix."

-- wasn't the remix released on 8-bit computers as well?

"The Commodore 64 version of Last Ninja Remix appeared as a cartridge for the 64GS, but the existence of Last Ninja 3 has yet to be confirmed."

-- Is this correct, I always thought that the remix was released on cassette/disk and I remember seeing the Zzap!64 Last Ninja 3 review and that was the cartridge version. -- Nreive 13:46, 15 November 2007 (UTC)

 It's not correct, Last Ninja 3 was released in 1991, and it was indeed reviewed in issue 71.
This should be edited (by someone who, unlike me, isn't afraid of editing wikipedia)
