Title: Guess this power-up, win a pair of NINJAS
Post by: bob on February 27, 2013, 12:50:49 PM
Found these in my basement today and figured it would be a fun thing to offer.

Guess what NES game this power-up is from and you will get a pair of ninjas.  Yup, really.

Beats me, but my 4, 6, and 8-year-old sons would love to play with these, so I'll guess.........(thinking......it looks snowflakeish......I've never played this game before,......but it has 'snow' in the title......)

The answer MUST BE..................drumroll.................SNOW BROTHERS!!!

I'll PM you my address, so that you can mail me my prize!!!





:P

Bonk's Revenge SNOW FLAKE!

Probably not,

Also, isn't the plural of Ninja just .... Ninja?

Nobody really knows for sure. Someone once asked a real ninja for clarification, but the ninja answered with bloody retribution for daring to waste his time with such things.

Well, ccovell won with abadox. He PMd me that he didn't want the Ninja(s)
I am going to update the image with a different one and run this again.

Now since this is a pure Japanese word, I guess it's just plain Ninja.

UPDATE: Hahshahhahahhaha. The funny thing is that I would have guessed this correctly (but on my second or third guess). Ha! My friend had ABADOX and we played it all the time.

My first guess was ASTYANAX, though...
