Ancient ship of Doom doppelganger fight
I used to play all three of the ninja gaidens on NES as a kid and recently I've been thinking about the fight with the doppelganger in the third one. I remember hitting a wall in that game because I could not defeat the doppelganger but here is the thing.... I could not find this fight in YouTube vids or guides at all.... the fight as I remembered it does not exist. Was it maybe a bug in the game?? The fight as I remember it was an exact clone of my character who mirrored every movement/attack of mine. So walking to the right it would walk toward me (left) and attacking with my sword was met with an attack by the sword at exactly the same time (same with the ninjutsu I had on me at the time). The fights I see in guides or youtube do have an doppelganger but he has his own moveset and is no 1:1 copy of ryu. I'm eager to know if someone out there has experienced this or if this maybe was truly a bug in the cartridge...or I'm going crazy lol.
