Originally released exclusively in Japan on Nintendo's Super Famicom system, Shonen Ninja Sasuke has gone on to become a rarity in Nintendo's library of Japan-only titles. Sealed copies in particular, have sold upwards of two thousand dollars apiece in the past. Fast forward thirty-plus years, and Sunsoft have decided to finally release Sasuke in the west as 'Justice Ninja Casey'.
Besides being a note-for-note conversion of the Super Famicom original, Justice Ninja Casey's story has been translated in English for the first time ever, allowing players outside of Japan to experience Casey's quirky humor without the need of a rom hack, walkthrough or Japanese translator. For purists hoping to keep the original Famicom experience intact, Ninja Casey includes the option to switch Casey's text back to Japanese. Full box and manual scans in Japanese are also provided for viewing in-game as well.
Like other recent re-releases, the ability to save and load states at any moment during gameplay is a welcomed addition. Players can also fast forward and rewind gameplay, with the ability to customize the speed of such in Casey's options menu. Additionally. players now have the option to activate in-game cheats such as invincibility and unlimited energy; making playthroughs of Ninja Casey a cinch.
Perhaps the most unique gameplay add-on is local co-op; allowing players to complete Casey's story online.
Though, Justice Ninja Casey isn't without it's flaws. The same slowdown that plagued Shonen Ninja Sasuke when one-too-many enemies were on screen is also prevalent in Justice Ninja Casey. I've also noticed random sprite glitches with out of place tiles appearing in the background, or townsfolk becoming a glitched mess when attacked by the player. While these glitches can be played around, they appear often enough in the later portion of Casey's story mode to become a regular occurrence.
Pro's
----------------
- The original Super Famicom port in all it's 16-bit glory.
- Fast forward and rewind features with customizable speed settings.
- Save and load state feature able to be used at any point of gameplay.
- Local online co-op
- Gallery mode with manual and box art scans, along with character sprites.
- The ability to switch to Japanese for players pining for the original experience.
Con's
-------------
- Noticeable slowdown at few parts of gameplay. Just like in the original.
- Noticeable graphical glitches towards the end of story mode.
If you're a fan of classic beat 'em ups such as River City Ransom, Streets of Rage or Double Dragon with RPG elements lifted from the Legend of Zelda, I recommend giving Justice Ninja Casey a try. The added features, translated story and attractive price point are all good reasons to test out this hidden gem from Nintendo's yesteryear.

[strike]Your going to want to lock this game to 60fps in your graphic card settings if you find it runs too fast. [/strike]
Both English and Japanese language versions included which is a plus.
No rom unfortunately. I would've liked to use it in my emulator of choice instead of being locked to their exe.
edit: FPS fixed in recent patch!
