'''Little Ninja Brothers''', known in Japan as {{nihongo|'''Super Chinese 2: Dragon Kid'''|スーパーチャイニーズ2 ドラゴンキッド}}, is a game developed and published by [[Culture Brain]] for the [[NES]] in [[1989]] in Japan, [[1990]] in the United States, and [[1991]] in Europe. It is an action-RPG set in the fictional world of Chinaland, and it is the second game in the ''[[Super Chinese]]'' series. When it was localized from Japan to the rest of the world, the main characters' culture was changed from Chinese to Japanese in a supposed effort to give the game broader appeal. The game was later released on the [[Wii U Virtual Console]], coming out at different times around the world between 2015 and 2017. | '''Little Ninja Brothers''', known in Japan as {{nihongo|'''Super Chinese 2: Dragon Kid'''|スーパーチャイニーズ2 ドラゴンキッド}}, is a game developed and published by [[Culture Brain]] for the [[NES]] in [[1989]] in Japan, [[1990]] in the United States, and [[1991]] in Europe.

Gameplay is split between a few systems. There is a top down exploration view typical of many early console RPGs where players can explore the world and talk to NPCs. Random battles occur on the world map and in dungeons. These battles are played out in real time, with gameplay nearly identical to [[Kung-Fu Heroes]]. Players can punch, use flip kicks, Miracle Kicks, throw shuriken, and use the Surger, which attacks all enemies on the screen. Miracle Kicks, shuriken and Surger attacks are limited in supply and can be obtained, along with other powerups, by breaking blocks in the battle areas with punches. Defeated enemies leave experience points and money used to purchase better equipment, healing items, and new types of shuriken and Surger attacks. | Gameplay is split between a few systems.
