Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon - Sequels

Sequels

Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon was immediately followed by a Game Boy game of the same name. Featuring gameplay similar to the Super Famicom title Ganbare Goemon 3: Shishijūrokubē no Karakuri Manji Gatame, the game presented a new story in which Yae had been kidnapped by the Black Ship Gang. In late 1999, Konami released Goemon's Great Adventure on the Nintendo 64—a 2.5D side-scroller with multiplayer support. Reviewers gave it high marks for recreating the feel of the older, 16-bit Goemon games and considered it the arguably best side-scroller for the Nintendo 64. The final Goemon title for the Nintendo 64 was Goemon Mononoke Sugoroku, released exclusively in Japan on December 25, 1999. In Mononoke Sugoroku, players must collect O-fuda cards while navigating a board game. After a spate of sequels on the PlayStation line of consoles, Konami returned to the medieval, quirky Japanese themes of Mystical Ninja and its brethren on June 23, 2005 with Ganbare Goemon: Tōkai Dōchū Ōedo Tengu ri Kaeshi no Maki for the Nintendo DS.
