There's nothing like the classics as Natsume just announced the return of 1991's NES Shadow of the Ninja for the Wii U and 3DS Virtual Console.

Set in 2029 as the evil dictator Emperor Garuda has taken control of the United States. In order to stop the chaos and avenge the deaths of those who lost their lives to the Emperor, two ninja maters, Lord Hayate and Lady Kaede, are sent to assassinate Emperor Garuda.

Shadow of the Ninja will release on January 29th.
