No, it isn't. This GBA version was developed by 3D6 Games, who also did a GBA installment of Altered Beast. Also, it was an entirely different game. I consider this Shinobi title a disgrace...
I bought this game at $10 new only for the box art and the manual.
5 seconds into the game and I was so shocked at the atrocity of this game that I turned my Game Boy Advance off, pulled out the cartridge, threw it insomewhere and I never touched it again.
Does this game get any better? I have it and have played through the first few levels a couple times, but it's just so boring that I can't finish it. By the time I feel like playing it, I can't find the password. Does it get better later on in the game?
If they were to release Revenge of Shinobi on the Virtual Console, Sega and Marvel would have to get through DC Comics to have Batman retained from the original version. Other than a poor DC Smash Pack emulation, it's not possible yet.
I have this game on the Smash Pack for Dreamcast, and I don't think that's supposed to be DC Comics' Batman. For one, it clearly doesn't look or behave like him. Two, I don't remember Batman being credited the proper ownership rights in one of the opening screens like Spidey is for Marvel. With Sega's new deal to produce develop and publish Marvel's games, the licenseship hurdle would be a lot easier to clear. So hey, it could happen.
Revenge of Shinobi (Genesis) had three different revisions. I do mean the Batman boss that appeared in the very first version of Revenge of Shinobi, while the third version of the game acknowledged Spider-Man on the boot up screen.
What is THAT - thats not the Revenge of Shinobi I remember. This hasn't even something to do with Shinobi!

Well, you're right. The boss wasn't meant to look like Batman. But then again, I wish Sega would release the original version anyway...
