JaJaMaru no Daibouken is a Family Computer video game that was released exclusively for a Japanese market in 1986. The concept of the game is that the player controls a red ninja as he progress through a series of Japanesque levels defeating evil spirits that have spread across the land. The player can even ride his faithful frog if he can recover it from hiding.

A cancelled North American port of Ninja JaJaMaru-kun: Ninpou Chou. Worth noting is that this game was slated for a 1990. However, an incomplete prototype version of the ROM exists. As well as an English localization, the game appeared to have had its graphics almost entirely redrawn in order to appear more realistic than the cartoonish original to appeal to Western audiences.
