I can’t quite put my finger on why I feel inclined to buy this, but…..I do.
I’m interested in finding out what the Ninja’s Treasure is, but don’t know if its worth the $30 price tag.
It is. Trust me. WE just finished the sequel, so you need to see the first one.
William, let us know when you have some info about the sequel. We’ll be sure to run a story about it!
