Mongolian archery pretty much took over most of Asia, yeah.

Also Shuriken were used more as a distraction or a harrying weapon than as a lethal strike; Ninja being pursued could whip them rapid-fire at whoever was chasing them. Understandably, sharp flying metal bits would distract you, allowing the ninja to vanish into hiding or get in on you with a more lethal weapon.

There is no perfect weapon. A weapon is just as good its master. Weapons are useless if they have a retarded person using them. You can have a set of chopsticks and defeat someone w/ a sword because you mastered that weapon. It's all going to be varied according to who uses them.

Why don't they have the ninja throwing the shuriken?

Epic phail

[MrComano]

a gun blade?

[TenteixSaigo]

Since WHEN were shurikan used for killing? They were made to distract, not damage. They couldn't pierce armor, and you shouldn't ever try.
