Revenge of Shinobi Music - Terrible Beat

[MegaWooley]

Why did Yuzo decide to put the rhythm track through a LP filter?

[TheDevineBeing]

CASIO KEYBOARD FTW!!!

[angrydead]

this song comes on-prepare to throw the fuck down or your dog food!

[MrJoshuaSalway1990]

That title is wrong.

This beat is incredible!!!

[theelostriots9999]

Just being a Ninja...OH SHI- GODZIIYA!!!!

[squall600]

sonny chiba in...revenge of shinobi!!! rated- R

[rainbowphoenix42]

I can only think it is called Terrible Beat because of a translation issue: it is probably something like "Beat of Terror" or "Beat of Terrible Events" but didn't come out right.

[Perfectedidiot21]

@rainbowphoenix42

Maybe it's called Terrible Beat since, you know, it's the boss theme, it's supposed to sound menacing or something.

[Benjammin2588]

The shinobi on the mega drive cover looks like he's wearing washing up gloves. Crazy motherfucker, that shinobi.

[rainbowphoenix42]

@Benjammin2588 Clearly Neo Zeed stole Naoko because he let her have the night off from doing the dishes. That'll learn him.

[rainbowphoenix42]

Play this when your girlfriend is struggling to get into her favourite tight dress shoes. You may find the length of the tune and level clear match up with the event.

[TheLordShaithis]

@planetsyde ur right dude. yhe copyrighted characters are the unmodded version

[BBDAutomotive]

This song goes good to Gilles Villeneuve battling against Rene Arnoux in the 1979 Dijon GP

[shadowyashatoura]

What s irony.Terrible beat.Sounds like british humour

[slodere]

feel the arcade nostalgy in all its glory!

[brenwicru]

Terrible beat my ass.

[OgnarPliskin]

1:38

[Xenoronade]

The fight with Spider-Man and Morbius caught me off guard haha didnt see that coming

[planetsyde]

@Xenoronade that fight is even better when you're playing a modded version and instead of Morbius you fight batman lol

[jelehu]

@planetsyde That's not modded, it's the actual original Revenge of Shinobi. They released the 2nd version w/ Spiderman/Morbius bcuz of copyright issues

[OneThousandWorlds]

THIS SONG IS THE ONE I CAN NEVER FORGIVE!

seriously, this shit's what you hear in your ears when you joust with katanas on souped-up kickass motorcycles on the streets of Shibuya!!

[Brady2k10]

thumbs up for seaga megadrive, all the classic games we got to play all the other classic consoles, sega saturn nintendo all of them, we are so lucky we got to play them as kids, children nowadays grow up with shit like modern warefare, moaning about graphics, i had so much fun with my friends playing these games, bunkin off school just to go to this electronics shop to look at the games they had, sweet memories.

[19Vexthehedgehog91]

@Brady2k10 I grew up with the PS1 but I recently got a mega drive last year and I'm soooooooooooo glad that I got it

[uncut7007]

Terrible beat? I think this beat's pretty good.

[whi17]

Ahhhh the memories ! this music gets you pumped ....Sega WTF would you please bring back a real Shinobi game PLEASE not this red scarf garbage u doing now....Tecmos NINJA GAIDEN has definitely stole your thunder it is now what Shinobi was back then ...BADASS!

[froggydarren]

@whi17 ninja gaiden is almost as bad now though but i agree that NG black / sigma are bad ass :)

[Ryuhei64]

@froggydarren New Ninja Gaiden are still great games

[BlackbloodABC]

the last boss could have done with getting his hair cut

[Alefthau142]

FAV !!!!!!!

[rythmicpulses1]

5 bosses disliked this:

1) Deep fried Samurai

2) Exploding devil ninja

3) Pickled Brain

4) Combusted teminator

5) Squished Spiderman

[hellbadger84]

Looks like Shinobi's wearing an Air Jordan headband.

[samhain81]

Ninja Gaiden vs Shinobi . Who would win? Shinobi would pwn him

[MusicOfAdam]

@samhain81 Considering the shit he's gone through, I'd go with Ryu.

[THELASTREDMAGE]

Godzilla,batman,spiderman and the terminator disliked this because they weren't paid.

[BlackbloodABC]

99 people couldn't find their way to the last boss!

[BrickCity4eva]

UGH I never beat this game!!!

[thedarkone2134]

@BrickCity4eva I'll never beat this game. It continues to kick my butt.

[KaosuKaiari]

Terrible beaat iiiit, beaat iiiit...~

[gringolazlo]

wheres the track which plays when your jumping over the logs on the waterfall (second stage)

[smm2510]

@gringolazlo sunrise blvd

[Jagged85]

"Terrible" is the new "Bad".

[afinitimyob]

Yeah it is terrible.

[BlackbloodABC]

Infinite Shurikens ftw :-)

[BaronOfBacon]

This beat is far from terrible.

[YinYang19]

RUN! IT'S GODZILLA!

[MartynJamieson9]

@YinYang19 IT looks like Godzilla but its not AHHHHH

[Socioromanticism]

Apologies to all who've already said it over the years, but yeah, worst misnomer ever.

[Alphawao2]

I remember 20 years ago I heard this and all I could say was "oooooooh Shiit!"

[bigleg88]

5stars

Cool action music !

[BlazyxOnlyOn360]

Best Boss Music Ever !

[Volviert]

Best ninja game ever

[TranceCore3]

This song is waay too good.

[FlickerEdge]

Awesome theme. Reminds me of epic battles with Spiderman, Godzilla and the Terminator, among others!

[CirqueDuFreak2000]

@FlickerEdge and batman.

[dennisbergkamp17]

One of the most difficult games I've ever beaten, but it was worth all the frustration. Thanks for the upload.

[bazIBIZA2007]

Although his fighting spirit blazes like fire, his mind is calm, like still water. HE'S THE FUCKING SHINOBI

[IniquityAndMalice]

Every major climactic event should be accompanied by this song.

[BullShittyShit]

gd one!!!if there is a arranged soundtrack for it it will be awesome.

[Sinisterappearance1]

LOVE LOVE ME DANGER LOVE ME FRZL L ZONAGE LUH, TERROR! FAST REVEALATION, JIST YOUR PAST BEING YOUR SWORD END OF,,,,

[MrDarknight115]

4 people don't know awesome music when they hear it lol

[MrDarknight115]

4 people don't know awesome music when they hear it LOL

[iBleepify]

I dressed up as Shinobi for Halloween in 4th grade my friends were jealous lol

[VenomLeon]

Obviously, they were sarcastic about the song's title!

[111iAm111]

im ready to throw kids in trash cans when this comes on the shuffle

[bazIBIZA2007]

HRAAAA! (ninjutsu)

[deathgrinful]

This music is soooo terrible that its AWESOME.

[WoWZhen]

Contrary to the name, this beat is far from terrible.

[CodeOrDie]

A melody of genius. A huge talent ...

[phenixsaint]

Simply the greatest soundtrack on MD

[cicatricesdt]

The only game where you can kill batman, spiderman, the terminator and Godzilla.

[ThePe007]

@cicatricesdt Pior que é kkkkkkkkkk.

jogo épico.

[zyxw2011]

the greatest video game music of all time.

[TheLovesoul1]

this game kicked my butt badly!!!0.0

[sciprio1]

Where is disco shinobi?

[vfIskullangel]

NEO Zeed makes Al Queda look like boy scouts compared with who they got. They had the fucking Terminator, The Hulk, Batman, Spiderman, Devilman, and Godzilla! A bunch of Hero's turned heel!

[EdmacZ]

@vfIskullangel

Don't forget Rambo.

Not only did Rambo turn heel, but they cloned him armed them all with flamethrowers.

[pavloscorpion]

great game, im glad i could terrible beat it.

[Renegade466isback]

@pavloscorpion

thats one of the worst puns Ive ever heard loool

[OpurumD]

@Renegade466isback LOL

[SeventhSun]

@Renegade466isback

Haha anus face.

[Brady2k10]

@Renegade466isback lol haha it is right

[jawzmuzik]

@pavloscorpion cheesy 

[Julienfun]

@pavloscorpion I'm LOL with that pun xD

[PersianAcademy]

@pavloscorpion LOL, dude you made my day ... wait, what time is it

[rockroc1]

If they remade this game it'd be tougher than Ninja Gaiden. I easily beat the original Gaidens but go nowhere near completing Shinobi

[baker187]

BOSS FIGHT!!!! *shits pants*

[Rodrigo23906]

yeahhhhhhhhh this is the song of the Boss!



[HumorPlaza]

4 people got seriously pissed off when they saw Spiderman, Batman, Terminator and Godzilla as bad guys.

[kingofkings4]

only a game as great as shinobi would have this killer tune, legendary

[Lazera]

I first heard this version on the GG version of Shinobi. Even in today's day and age where graphics "rule", so many games have music tracks that are sadly, very forgettable. The once hyped remake of Turtle in Time had music that was just an afterthought.

One of the bitter sweet moments for me. Been actively gaming since I was around 7 or 8, and I'm 28. I wish they spent as much time making awesome music as much as they do now with graphics, even if gameplay sucks...

[Omstube86]

Between 1989 and 1993, Yuzo Koshiro was GOD.

[Perfectedidiot21]

Revenge of Shinobi: Terrible Beat

Rockman Zero 3: Scrapped Beat

ha ha

[VegaRulezSF]

God damn yellow ninja's stop jumping all over the place its hard to kill you guys

[Byron10301]

Yuzo Koshiro is a FUCKING genius

[ocrammet]

3 people got raped by SpiderMan/Batman boss xD

[8BitManiac]

@ocrammet Lol don't forget the Terminator boss in the Scrapyard level xD xD

[BPzeBanshee]

@ocrammet going on four, mate. :P (I liked for the record).

[SuperJJsmom]

@ocrammet and one more person got stamp on by godzilla XD

[ocrammet]

@SuperJJsmom nah you're wrong dude...! That person got ninja raped by shadow dancer and his gay color swifts :O

[SuperJJsmom]

@ocrammet OMG! HE DID :O

[vfIskullangel]

@ocrammet /Devilman boss at the 1.01 version. lol

[vfIskullangel]

@ocrammet Also Devilman in the later 2.2 version of this game batman is no longer :(

[ocrammet]

@vfIskullangel y i know but i said spider man and batman because they were the bosses in the version i played so... :P

[dissident93]

@ocrammet I was one of them, but I didn't dislike the video. :P

[ocrammet]

@dissident93 good. btw vivi rulez :D

[dissident93]

@ocrammet Yep!

I get that a lot, saying how Vivi rules. :P

[Hump4free]

@ocrammet The fourth person was molested by The Terminator and Rambo enemies.

[hellbadger84]

this should be called "Terribly Morsih Beat". When listeng 2this, I like 2 imagine Yuzo Koshiro, dressed up as Shinobi, playin the drums with kendo sticks.

[FeanorBR]

@hellbadger84 ARUPHA AS FUCK

[SomcoTH]

I remember this.

[NightbladeEagle]

Just think of this:

As a Kid I was Crazy for everything that contained Ninjas - so imagine how amazed I was seeing this AWESOME Cover in the Store. Revenge of Shinobi is one of my Alltime Favourite Games and Terrible Beat is an awesome Boss Theme.

[prezakias4life]

@NightbladeEagle Also this game made me love ninja stuff.

[dimviesel]

FUCK NARUTO! im tired of ppl making fun of the kuji-kiri and its magic. the honor of the ninja must be avenged! =)

[SilentStalkerX]

"You are Musashi, master ninja. You are one of the mystic warriors, who see and know all things. You are deadly! Now, you must destroy the vicious army of Neo Zeed. If you fail, their beautiful prisoner, Naoko, dies!" - ........ ^_^||

[Tuneman125]

LMFAO, on stage 4 you fight arnold schwatzenegger who throws cars at you. ROFL

[SonicSidewinder]

What a terrible beat. "Terrible" meaning AWESOME!!!

[vulcathene]

should be a play loop option for this one. reminds me of the old days...

[thunkawoo]

i SWEAR it isn't batman. I thought it was a vampire called mobius? He's a marvel character that spiderman has come across.

[restocker2]

@thunkawoo Depends which version of the game you played...Some versions had Batman and some had the weird flying devil dude and if I am not mistaken there was even a third variation to that boss X_X;;

[thunkawoo]

@restocker2 Ha i guess. Well, i was only about 8 when i started playing that game, i didn't even know WHAT the fuck was going on most of the time.

[Jamerio3D]

Burnt this to my cd player and was pumping it out in my car along with some other tracks, kid opposite goes shouts "what's that track, its awesome"

I said Yuzo Koshiro-Terrible beat, he said whay I said google is your friend and zoomed off in a trail of smoke.

[SonicSidewinder]

@Jamerio3D class.

[Ninjistic]

If they make a new version, it should have and oldschool look, just with better definition. None of those semi 3d graphics.

[mopbrothers]

The bosses in this game rocked.

Shredder

Shadow Dancer

Mother Brain

Terminator

Some weird train

SpiderMan and BatMan

Godzilla

Zeed

[Jermyn78]

@mopbrothers My version didn't have Batman although it DID have Godzilla, Terminator, Shadow Dancer and the rest. The weird train thing was a missile carrier I think.

[b14hb14h14]

@mopbrothers Impossible. Why on EARTH would Sega have a character from a game made by Nintendo, who may I add was their biggest rival when they made this game?

[MajBlood]

I love the bosses in this game. They require pattern recognition, quick reflexes, and superb timing; all the telltale skills of a true hardcore gamer.

[Whim4Life]

My boss description (original game):

Level 1: Blue lobster getting toast!

Level 2: Shadow that have lost his dancer...huh?

Level 3: Supercomputer brain overheated err... explode?

Level 4: Hulk getting terminated

Level 5: Lame nuclear truck..

Level 6: Shinobi vs Batman vs Spiderman

Level 7: Godzilla on rampage!!!

Level 8: Devil that get his haircut dyed...

[TimothyB24]

@Whim4Life God i hated that nuclear truck and final boss!!!

[kingofthe90s]

@TimothyB24 Me too, I first played this game back in 1990 and

some of the bosses got pretty hard from levels 4-8 , but when

facing the big nuclear truck I keep getting hit by the spark that

keeps appearing over and over again. As for the final boss... I got the bad ending

because I didn't prevent the wall from crushing the girl named Yoko, that part

reallly got me down and I had to replay it over and "Finally" got the good ending.

[TimothyB24]

@kingofthe90s I got to the end but couldnt save the girl. That does get you down. Then my Sega started running hot from me playing the game for so long. Bummer.

[kingofthe90s]

@TimothyB24 I see what you mean by that. well for me, my friend

R.J. Williams (the child actor who played Kit Cloudkicker on TaleSpin that I told about) was telling me to: "hit the switch" which I didn't know there was a girl trapped in the progress. But when I saved her life and beat Neo Zeed (the final boss), R.J. Williams smiled and clap his hands after I got the good ending.

He always dose that when I play the video games the right way and beat them too. Being a game player since 1990

[TimothyB24]

@kingofthe90s Thats cool! I've been a game player since 88, 89 ,or 90's. Not too sure.

[kingofthe90s]

@TimothyB24 Wow, that's when we had old Nintendo and Sega genesis too.

(which they made a comeback in 1990)

[TimothyB24]

@kingofthe90s True. True.

[kingofthe90s]

@TimothyB24 That's right. even though the game was made in mid-1989, but did played it in 1990. As for the boss theme.... I always get down and dance to this theme before palying the actual game. This made R.J. Williams laugh so hard because I once did a somersalt and the end but wind up hitting the wall big time.

[kingofthe90s]

@TimothyB24 Oh yeah, I made mastake the girl is named Naoko

not yoko, sorry.

[TimothyB24]

@kingofthe90s Hahahahahaha! No problem man. For years it has felt like an empty void in my life because I never got the chance to finish that game. Poor Naoko.

[kingofthe90s]

@TimothyB24 Sometimes you just got to take some time from your loss

and you'll somehow rescue her in time, it's what R.J. Williams said to me from

the time when got to the last part and then Naoko died. after that I put the controller

down and broke down in tears. But I knew what he met so I made a great comeback.

[TimothyB24]

@kingofthe90s I hope that Sony and Microsoft get the rights to it and put out a new version like they did with Final Fight Double Impact. I know I'm ready to save her now.

[enclosedfury]

Misleading title. This beat is anything but terrible. Don't know why I never looked up Yuzo Koshiro before... not realizing that lots and lots of games BGM that I love was composed by him.

[ultramegaunknown]

Always makes me think of that first boss.... the Blue Lobster, that armored Samurai with a mysterious facemask and a large sword.

[Batoune51]

I remember of the big samurai with the "color-changing-armor" :p

Gay samourai when his armor is purple :)

[TehLonelyGamer]

This Beat is certainly not Terrible.

[vfIskullangel]

The best fight song ever!.

[Sam5726]

Terrible Beat? More like, INCREDIBLE Beat!

[kagutsuchi230]

best song in this game

[OgnarPliskin]

Gojira!

[CorpseScream]

I would like to hear a drum cover of this song :)

[haroony2j]

@CorpseScream learn how to play drums and post the vid :)

[Ostnizdasht206]

This song always gets me pumped. It's like, FUCK YOU SAMURAI! Ching! ching! ... dead. lol

[OgnarPliskin]

I like the victory cue at the end.

[xRocketzFighterx]

The boss explooooooaaaaddddsssss there needs to be an explosion at the end of the song before the stage finish theme.

[0penCasket]

this song used to get you all pumped up for the boss. sick drums dude!

[0penCasket]

This song used to get you pumped up for the boss...

[TDBolton23]

This game was created in the greater days. I miss the 90's.

[leydeplomo]

Mmm this game was out in 89 :p

[TDBolton23]

@leydeplomo Oh damn. My bad.

[Zarck25]

Yuzo Koshiro and Sega FTW!.

[IWantUrBallsSmashed]

Epic Song Shinobi game have excellent music.

[OgnarPliskin]

Man, what if I could be a ninja? Would I get to fight Godzilla, too?

[legendofzeldas]

and maybe this song will play while you do just that

[ryanhitmanfury]

Killer tune!

[leydeplomo]

Hard to believe this is over 20 years old, I liked it better when consoles had their own custom soundchip, I'm afraid we'll never get this kind of music out of our videogames again.

[ShadesxOfxMemnon]

This beat is not in anyway shape or form terrible. One of the hottest beats I've ever heard back in the genesis days. 5*'s

[MegaXMikuX]

this is one of my favorite boss songs ^^

[ShadyKitsune19]

Makes me wanna turn my Megadrive on again. =)

The game is harder than balls though.

[RiiidgeRaacer]

I still have a copy and two megadrives, my copy was on mega games 2 though. Worth it though for the music alone despite this game owning my ass badly.
