Summary

“IT SEEMED AS IF THE WORLD HAD RETURNED TO PEACE…” The Cane and Rinse ninjas shimmy their way across Japan and the USA taking down IP-infringing baddies (Spider-Man, Batman, Rambo, The Terminator and even Godzilla) in their third Shinobi series podcast. Leon, Chris Worthington, Michiel and returning guest Ben Cartlidge (Video Wizards, One Credit Classics), run the gauntlet of SEGA's first 'designed for the home' entry into its 80s slide 'n dice franchise. Along with community contributors, the panel gets to grips with this groovy great, including its early 16-bit era quirks and foibles - yes, that double jump - its secrets, cheats, exploits and of course, various versions and revisions. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_570.mp3 Music featured in this issue:1.

0:42.1	Hello, hello.
0:44.0	Good to have you all on board for the game that was originally known in Japan as the Super Shinobi.
0:50.3	And I always think this is quite interesting because, obviously, this game was released before the Super Famicom even.
0:57.0	And that was the console where Nintendo decided to make every game Super something, or at least most of them, especially early on.
1:04.6	But at this point, Sega were perfectly well within their rights to call their sequels, the Super, whatever.
1:10.9	But Nintendo kind of came along and stomped all over that.
