Ninja JaJaMaru

Starting up a new thread for Ninja JaJaMaru, a Video Game series by Jaleco that started in 1985 for the Famicom with Ninja JaJaMaru-kun, because the series is getting a collection.

Ninja JaJaMaru Collection will consist of Ninja JaJaMaru-kun, JaJaMaru no Daibouken, JaJaMaru Ninpouchou, JaJaMaru Gekimaden: Maboroshi no Kinmajou, Ninja JaJaMaru: Ginga Daisakusen, and even a new game exclusive to Collection titled Ninja JaJaMaru: The Great Yokai Battle.

Here's where you can find more info about it. It's stated to release in Winter in Japan for Play Station 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.

I played the first one on the Wii VC. From the looks of things most of the other games weren't released outside Japan. And the ones that were aren't in the collection. Not sure how likely it is that the collection will be exported, but it'd be nice.

Maybe those other games could be added in via updates? Actually, now I'm wondering if this collection could lead to a true-blue revival?

This is a bit relevant to Ninja JaJaMaru Collection, turns out it's the first installment for a series of collections from City Connection called "Rom Cassette Collection".

The second installment will have other games by Jaleco, while the third will have games by Sunsoft.
