MEMORY:

Ninjas. They were the go-to bad guys of 80's video games. It didn't matter what dastardly deed had been committed, everyone knew that at the end of the game, if there wasn't a giant, pulsating brain covered in semi-translucent liquid in an oversized jar that was responsible for all the evilness, it was certainly ninjas. They'd steal anything: girlfriends, pizza, souls, shiny things, and, in Bad Dudes, the President of the United States. And the only people who could rescue the President? Two bad dudes. These two bad dudes were not ninjas, but they had martial arts training, and possibly a background in kickboxing. They, in their muscle shirts and sweatpants, would beat the tar out of these ninjas of darkness, and say, "to hell with your ninja code! We want our President back!" In fact, it looks as if that's exactly what they're shouting on the main title screen right above us there. Oh, the ninjas tried to lure our dude friends into their secret ninja lair, but did that stop them? Hell no! They busted up their hideout, and rescued the President. Bow to the power of sweatpants! Oh, and this was one game I actually managed to beat. Guess that makes ME a bad dude. Right? Right??? Sigh.
