I find it hard to believe that nobody could come up with a more interesting title for this game.

Publisher Hamster has announced that The Ninja Kids is now available on Nintendo Switch and PS4 as part of the digital Arcade Archives series.

Originally published in arcades by Taito in 1990, this is the first time that The Ninja Kids is seeing an official home release.

In The Ninja Kids, up to four players become one of four “ninja-doll heroes” who battle an evil cult in classic arcade beat ‘em up fashion. Each of the four “ninja kids” has its own unique abilities. In addition to cutting and chopping through your enemies, you can also use powerful ninja magic to obliterate them with extreme prejudice.

Like other Arcade Archives titles, players can post their high scores to the online leaderboards and change various game settings to match their own personal skill levels and taste.

Arcade Archives The Ninja Kids is available today for $7.99 via PSN and the Nintendo Switch eShop.

You can check out the announcement trailer below, or visit the official Hamster website here for additional info.
