Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound is both a speedrunner's dream and the perfect homage to the NES trilogy

Many moons ago in the early '90s, I grew up with a copy of the Nintendo Power strategy guide for Ninja Gaiden II.

I ended up reviewing it for this here site, and liked it very much then, and perhaps more now.
