Ninja Cop (a.k.a Ninja Five-O) is my favourite game of this generation. It has been sadly neglected: It is all the best bits of all the best Genesis platformers put together, with a Ninja-Grappling-Rope that makes it the sweetest joy to maneuvre around the levels.
It is a thing of beauty.
And it is four megabytes.
Robb: I was gonna buy you a blue GBA-SP for finishing ND. Then I found out that customs was an asshole these days with their scanners and that my boss is more of a prick than I thought.
ICJ, though it's great, and pretty, maybe you should hold on for the DS? A lot of the great titles from the N64 are already being ported to it (including Snowboard Kids), and it's compatible with the GBA for all your Ninja Cop needs. I know you're not a graphics-whore or anything, but like me you enjoy the sumptious aswell as the well-playing. The nice graphics and backward compatibility would make me say "Wait." to you.
Plus: The price of the SP will drop, I am sure of that. It will be worth grabbing a DS and, if you don't like it, taking it back for an SP. This way you get all the great games aswell as the new-fangled 3D-and-touchscreen games for as long as you want to try them. Or, you can wait for the SP to drop and grab it, ignoring the DS: There is still going to be a lot of development for it because it's so cheap and easy to do. There's
Ninja Cop and the X-Com/Final Fantasy fusion cuisine:
Fire Emblem
