He’s got more powers than Picasso’s got paint, and he fights timeless evils as big as the screen. The filthiest and most dangerous ninja of them all, Ryu began his journey on the NES with the ridiculously hard Ninja Gaiden series.

I don’t think even Snake Eyes could withstand a full Shinobi assault.

I think you’ll find, in the picture above, that this particular ninja is riding a hoverboard and fighting a cyber-beast in the middle of the ocean. Rather than sneak among the shadows, Joe chooses to walk straight at the enemy and use his extensive ninja powers to simply blow them off the face of the earth. Using “slash” or “bust” style? Either way it would be a toss-up. I heard he had a thing with Ukyo, who visibly spurns the ladies, and it’s not just because of his tuberculosis. The scarf? The fishnet arm-warmers? I think it’s safe to say his sword cuts both ways. Although I think he may have been a little bit - you know. He wasn’t my favorite guy in the game, but he’s definitely a great ninja. Who can say? If not, Interceptor would get revenge. He has the strongest throwing arm of any ninja (YOU try throwing the Atma Weapon). His kung fu is strong, and his mysterious dreams are one of the most elusive elements of Final Fantasy III/VI’s sprawling plot.

He would cut their soft flesh.Ī fan favorite, this enigmatic, rottweiler-loving loner (SPOILER ALERT) actually gets killed off if you don’t care enough to wait until quite the last moment on a quickly-disintegrating floating continent. Remember when he shanked Bebop in the shower? Raphael, however, was a straight bad-ass. Leonardo just the figurehead and never really got truly violent, but you could sense the instinct lurking there. Furthermore, the ninjaken and sai are real ninja weapons, not the bo and nunchaku. Wondering why Don and Mike aren’t on there? I’ve got news for you: Ninja are murderers, people, and those pansies didn’t have the stomach. But everybody remembers TMNT 2: The Arcade Game and probably also TMNT 1: The Hardest Game On The NES. I’m bending the rules here a bit because they were a comic and show first. Maybe while Snake Eyes was hanging around in the base drinking coffee, but not straight on. Are you joking? Snake Eyes would tear that up.Ħ. She’s a natural at it, and she’s actually a good character in the game. Really, she does know the way of the ninja, and part of that is learning to redirect the attention of your enemy. But to be fair, I searched the entire internet for non-slutty female ninjas and I’ll leave it to you to guess my success. Mai Shiranui (Fatal Fury and King of Fighters series) Lo Wang had no freelook so Snake Eyes could attack from above with impunity.ħ. Anyway, he throws tons of shuriken and swings a sword, so he’s on the list. I think the developers got their stereotypes mixed up a little on this one, as ninja are Japanese and Lo Wang seems to be sort of pan-asian in origin.


His suit has been recycled by several other characters in the labyrinthine, tail-devouring mess that is the Metal Gear saga, and will be seen soon in Guns of the Patriots on the effeminate but effective Raiden. This mysterious character, most famous for breaking the fourth wall and freaking out credulous players by magically moving their controller, (oops, that’s Psycho Mantis, by the way spoilers ahead) who aids Solid Snake in destroying Metal Gear REX, is more a technological wonder than a ninjutsu one. That’s got to be worth a spot on the list, right? But Sub-Zero is arguably the most well-known and, well, he could freeze you. Noob Saibot was probably the most ninja-like of this ever-growing clan of similarly-tailored gladiators. Note: We have ranked them based on their ability to kill Snake Eyes in real life. So without further ado I present to you the top 10 video game ninjas of all time. And it’s not too late to join in the fun even if you, like John, are a 30-year-old balding raver with a paunch. These were the guys you always wanted to be. Bear in mind this is not a list of the top ten ninja games, but a list of the killer ninjas within. But because not all of us are sneaky and murderous, sometimes the only way to get that ninja feeling was to grab a controller and get shuriken-ing. I personally was a ninja for Halloween three years running. For as long as ninjas have existed, kids (and secretly adults) have been pretending to be them.
