  • The Last Ninja collection successfully captures the nostalgia of the original games, with excellent graphics, sound, and gameplay that hold up well even today.

  • System 3 has shown great dedication in reviving these iconic games, providing a polished package that respects the original material while allowing modern gamers to experience them.
  • The collection lacks additional features such as achievements, cheats, and contextual background material, making it feel more like a basic ROM collection than a lovingly curated package.
