      Credits:
      Mike Mason: It was his game, and at first he beat parts of the game that I 
                  Couldn't do yet. He also explained other parts of the game.

      Dan Mason: Basically the same stuff as Mike, but helped more with actually
                 Playing the game.

      Myself: I typed the FAQ, and compiled the information for it.

      CJayC: He is the sole webmaster of Gamefaqs.com, and is also a very good 
             Writer. Also known as king of the message board.

      <-> Shinobi II is the sequal to the first hit game in the Shinobi - 
          Series, "Shinboi". It features more Martial Arts than ever too. 
          The game itself is one of my personal all-time favorites for my
          Sega GameGear. I also disagree with the statement that Gamegear
          Isn't as good as GameBoy, because games like this make that a -
          Bit stupid.
      <-> You will start out with the Red Ninja, from the Oboro school of
          Ninjas. He will go through the game gathering the other ninjas,
          So in the end you can defeat the evil Ninjas. Joe Musashi, also
          Known as the red ninja, is the character you will play as.
      <-> Each ninja has their own certain Ninjutsu moves, which they use 
          their crystals to perform. The Ninjutsu's are usually a deadly,
          attack, or a skill that helps the Ninja considerably.
      <-> So, even if you aren't a fan of the SEGA GAMEGEAR, atleast give 
          this classic game a try. It well deserved that and probably alot
          more of your time, just because it was doomed by a unpopular 
          console in America.

Game Story

The Oboro school of ninja's have protected the four elemental crystals for 
thousands of years. Each crystal is the container of one elemental power. Blue: 
Air, Yellow: Water, Pink: Fire, Green: Earth. Each crystal is protected by the 
ninja master of that element. 

But a terrible event has taken place. The Techno-Warriors have enlisted the 
Black ninja, master of ninja techniques, to help them take over Neo City. The 
black Ninja has captured the four elemental ninja's and has stolen the four 
crystals.

Joe Musashi, or the red ninja, and the four elemental ninja's must face the 
toughest enemies yet. The stakes are high. If the black ninja can master the 
powers of the four crystals, he and the Techno-Warriors will bring evil to Neo 
city. Joe must find his fellow Ninja's and bring them on the most dangerous 
mission yet - to find the elemental crystals and destroy the Techno-Warriors!

Walkthrough

Level 1: Building

  In this level you must find the yellow crystal and the yellow ninja.
You have to fight your way up to the moving platforms. Be careful when you jump 
on not to hit anything that will damage your health. Just keep going until you 
find the yellow ninja. This isn't a very hard level because the enemies are 
weak.

Level 2: Castle

  This ancient castle is packed with enemy warriors. Hear you will find the pink 
ninja and the pink crystal. This level has a lot more guys to fight than the 
last one, so be careful, or you'll get ganged up on. Make your way through the 
level until you find both of the pink items.

Level 3: Canyon

  This is kind of a hard level. There are lots of techno guys, plus digger 
warriors. Just make your way through the level. None of the elemental ninja's 
are here, but its good training.

Level 4: Factory

  You thought the last level was hard?! Here you will find the green crystal and 
ninja. It is actually a maze of pipes. There ate lots of ninjutsu items here, so 
be on the look out. If you manage to fing your way through, after fighting off 
all the warriors, call yourself a pro.

Level 5: Enemy Base

  This is the final level, so naturally it is the hardest. Once you have all of 
the crystals you will be able to go on and fight the black ninja. This is 
swarming with techno warriors, so be careful, I can't really help you out here, 
you have to battle the black ninja.
