Ninja (character)



Ninja is seen in Final Fantasy I for the NES, which was actually published by Nintendo. One of the four Light Warriors, Ninja started out as Thief, but later evolved into the much better equiped and experienced Ninja. In battle, Ninja specialized in throwing objects at opponents and using his large selection of offensive weapons. He knows limited magic, but his main strengths are his agility and luck.

In later Final Fantasy games, Ninja is one of the many available character classes.

In Mario Hoops 3-on-3, Ninja returns for the first time in many years, this time to show off his skills on the basketball court in the Mushroom Kingdom's first basketball tournament. Several others have come from the Final Fantasy universe alongside him including Black Mage, White Mage, Moogle, and Cactuar.

Created by Squaresoft, now known as Square Enix, Ninja is one of five characters the company has decided to impliment into Mario Hoops 3-on-3, the first Nintendo game developed by Square since Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars on the Super NES. Interestingly, an enemy called Ninja appeared in that game.
