Ninja Jajamaru collections drop today on Switch and PS4

It’s time to wrap your tongue around Ninja Jajamaru-kun, as ININ Games has released a few localized collections of his most prominent adventures. While this was one big collection in Japan, for what I can only assume are localization reasons, they’ve been split up into three different releases. Buckle up; I’ll outline them here.

First, we have Ninja JaJaMaru: The Great Yokai Battle +Hell. This is a brand-new game for the series that acts as a celebration of its history. You’ll choose from a growing cast of characters to stomp yokai as you make your way to the catfish pirate.

If you’re in the mood for classic Jajamaru, there’s Ninja JaJaMaru: Retro Collection. This includes five classic games: Ninja JaJaMaru-Kun, Ninja JaJaMaru’s Big Adventure (JaJaMaru no Daibouken), The Great World Adventure (Oira JaJaMaru! Sekai Daibouken), Operation Milky Way (Ninja JaJaMaru: Ginga Daisakusen), and Super Ninja-kid (Super Ninja-Kun). It’s worth noting that Ninja JaJaMaru: The Great World Adventure was originally released in North America as Maru’s Mission, but the version in the collection is truer to the original Japanese release. They’ve also included a colorized “DX” version.

Finally, there’s Ninja JaJaMaru: The Lost RPGs. Here you have translated versions of the two Famicom RPGs, Gekimadenn — Maboroshi no Kinmajou and Ninpouchou. This collection is very special to me, as the only way to previously play these games was through fan translations, and I’m always happy when a publisher takes the time to bring old titles to a new audience.

You can get The Great Yokai Battle +Hell and the Retro Collection in one pack through Ninja JaJaMaru: The Great Yokai Battle +Hell Deluxe Edition. Not, however, that this does not include Ninja
