Kage no Densetsu
This classic ninja-action game first appeared in arcades in 1985 and became instantly popular.

To stay alive, players move vertically and horizontally through forest and castle environments and execute massive jumps, all the while using throwing-star knives and a sword to take down hordes of enemies.
