In Ninja Gaiden

Since purchasing this game, I've been reminded of a programming error in the game! It's at the beginning of the fourth stage, I believe....

If you look at the background, you can see that the mountains are upside down!!! I always thought this was hilarious!

Mountains upside down?
... Maybe the stage is just located in some weird parallel universe?

Perhaps it's possible you post a screenshot here?

I tried getting to the level with my crappy PC controller, and it's a no go. I'll have to get a better contoller, then I'll post it for you... it's quite funny, actually!

I never realized that before. The last time I playeed NG3 was 4:00am so maybe I never noticed it.

I am just curious...



Is the second pic what the programmers intended?

Nah, the trees would be at the bottom of the screen too. Of course, there has to be a reason for this. Are you sure it isn't explained in a cinema why everything is upside down?

That looks weird... what did they intend with that?...

Are these trees or just green clouds?

Well, I've been waiting to watch the cinema screens until I beat it again. But I'll play it later today and see if they say anything. I seem to remember this from when I was younger though (thinking it was weird).

Good job getting that shot. I've got to try finish NG3 again to see that for myself.

I went through and watched the cinema screens (finally), and there is no explanation for the background being like that. I'm not sure why that's like that, but it's a bit strange that they left it like that. Oh well, another unsolved mystery!
