Bolch76: Thanks for all the great stories and suggestions, just keep them coming! :)
By the way, I'm a little puzzled by the relative lack of interest. Though I haven't played it yet, but Mark of the Ninja looks like a funny game to me... and it's the Special Edition, too. Perhaps it was/is featured as a free game somewhere?
Back to the topic: the C64 game Bruce Lee also featured a ninja as a somewhat comical enemy; he constantly followed, poked and harassed the player but didn't do any actual damage (though it COULD kill the player by shoving it into a pit or deathtrap).
Massively great game to giveaway and great thread. I've decide it can't be anywhere near as ninja awesome as Ninja Gaiden 2, so it's gone somewhat down my wishlist. And it's 2gb, it would actually cost me $40 to download. -.- By the way, I'm a little puzzled by the relative lack of interest.

Otherwise I'd be in in a flash.
Also grew up with American Ninja. +1
I'd recommend the movie 13 Assassins, more Samurai's than Ninja, but pretty close.
