![]() ![]() Godzilla was placed with a rather striking skeletal dinosaur with visible organs instead, the Rambo and Batman characters were altered… and in some versions, the Spider-Man fight was made to actually feature an authentic Spider-Man design thanks to Sega getting the rights to put the character into video games at the time. Sega seemingly never got in hot water for these choices, likely because revisions were quickly issued that change the looks of these characters to be more distinct. Why these designs were included in the second installment of a successful Sega franchise remains a bit of a mystery, members of the development team acknowledging it later on but also trying to pass elements like the Godzilla boss off as a “brontosaurus” despite looking nothing like that dinosaur. On initial release, a flamethrower-wielding enemy looked a lot like Rambo, a boss character that looked like Spider-Man fired webs down at you before transforming into a flying form that looked instead like Batman, and the most flagrant of all, one boss is undeniably based on Godzilla just with his back spines missing. The Revenge of Shinobi was reissued a few times, so depending on the version you play, you might see varying levels of copyright infringement. ![]()
