This thread combined with my brother playing Shinobi yesterday inspired me to play Shinobi today. I'd been playing VF4: Evo a month ego before I stopped to play Tekken 4 because I finally found a T5 arcade machine or four (Japanese style, back to back) here. Fuck I'm awesome.
Anyway, I was playing on hard and god, that butterfly boss is a megabitch. The game is a cakewalk up until there and I didn't have any trouble with her on normal, I ended up using the electric ninja magic to sass her. She was infuriating though, and I had a little trouble with my controller on the level leading up to her, the analogue stick is fucked so if I say, walk 'down' with it, the stick will stay in that position. So what happens is I'll dash around behind something, and then when I go to slice the fools the stick will make me kick them, a couple of kicks will go out and then my tate combo will be RUINED.
And being the designer for this game must have been frustrating, the level design is so half-assed.
