Music in the Vanguard commercial: starts with ascending low strings containing the intro to "every little thing", falls into cheesy arpeggio-land and resolves with the last two notes of the NBC theme tag, all quite boring & fully derivative

Ninja Commando is one of those early Neo Geo games that I feel deserves a re-evaluation. It's an overhead action game that feels derivative of Ikari Warriors, sure.
But it's absolutely bonkers, has wonderfully bad translation issues and special moves to master!
