The sequel to this game, Legend of Kage 2, introduces a new character out of nowhere. Apparently, the new character is a kunoichi out of the same village as Kage, which is Iga. But during the playthrough of this new character, you'll come across a shocking secret that not even I can comprehend.

I loved this game as a kid. Can't believe nobody mentioned it, the nunchuck/stick attack can actually block ninja stars. If you play it with a turbo controller it's super fun to block all the stars, I think that's the way to play it. Also the jumping felt super awesome like in an anime. Also doing a melee on somebody mid air was like in those martial arts movies where two jump attacking eachother and one falls safely to their feet while the other crashes to the ground dead.

Definitely. I've enjoyed the last few episodes. At one point it was starting to feel like the videos were becoming more about setting up a silly skit that had questionable relevance to the game being reviewed,* but in the last few videos it feels like he's gone back to basics, giving us angry commentary about the game. Less is more. *That's not to say a skit is necessarily a bad thing, but the majority of them just wrecked the flow and general tone of the video. Like you've got this angry dude ranting about a game that's either bad or frustratingly hard, and then all of a sudden he's off on some wacky misadventure.

@@RDVD look my man. Im not one for comment argument but I promise you it's not. Ill dive in a little since this is something that's bothered me for that last couple years of AVGN. Cliche I know, but I have been watching Cinemassacre for a very long time. I was 13 in 2007 and this series was pretty much the most popular one on youtube. I'm just trying to say I've watched literally every episode of the Nerd. The statement "this felt like one of the older episodes" is completely false because it doesn't. I'll just throw out a random example from "season 2" watch the atari 5200 video side by side then come back to me. I'm NOT a cinemassacre hater since I still watch it. But I guarantee that even James knows these ain't it. Sorry for poor grammar.

As far as i remember there's bug that appears in 2 player mode. To make it happen player 1 must stay still on his spawn point ( or at the top of tree he's jumping down) and get himself killed. Then player 2 shares the same fate before even getting into action - you can hear death sound while princess sleepwalks at the beginning and then you can see our player fall down dead.
