This was one of my favorite Genesis games as a kid, and I always wanted to do something for it. So here's about as hard a run as it gets.
Run stipulations:
Hardest difficulty, no ninjitsu, melee attacking only, no POW, no health pickups.
Needless to say this took a lot of practice. Thankfully, a lot of enemy contact deals no damage, so a number of careful boosts are needed in the later stages. Plenty of fairly risky and precise maneuvers are used throughout, and in many places being off by a few frames is certain death.
Overall, it's a really good run up until the end. I did die to the final boss once, but I'm really happy with how it went otherwise.
