A 63-year-old former engineer doesn't sound like the typical image of a dark-clad assassin with deadly weapons who can scale walls and disappear into a cloud of smoke. But Jinichi Kawakami is reputedly Japan's last ninja and the only living guardian of Japan's secret spies. Duration: 02:10

  • For those who don't know much? There were two types of Ninja. The Iga and the Koga. Both affiliations/houses/villages fought the same but they weren't completely alike. The Iga were the more spy type ninja, the infiltration kind and probably what most think of from film and media. While the Koga focused on actual combat, and over time the line got blended into one category. This man practices the Koga style of ninja. Most modern day practitioners will be in the Koga style. Also, I know I may be incorrect on some stuff. However, that information is just the super dumbing down of the groups for those who just know nothing for the most part.

    • Benjámin Kurilla I saw a review of the c64 mini by the 8-bit guy, comes with pre-installed games & a joystick of lesser quality than the orignal ones. After considering buying one I'll just stick to an emulator. Sadly my original c64 kicked the bucket. But yeah those were great times. I would give my left leg, need my hands to play, I could go back in time and just enjoy one more day of the late 80s - early 90s, a time where there wasn't a worry in the world on my mind.

    • I'd tried the emulator with last ninja to no avail, only the first game worked but it crashed after the first level. As for the Mini, it is possible to add any game via USB.
