Shadow Dancer is one of the best side-scrolling ninja games I can remember from Genesis.

Made as a sequel to the Shinobi series, started as an arcade game and was adapted to Sega Genesis.
Has some pretty distinctive remarkable stuff that fans will always remember: Having a pet dog (with dog meter!) that would attack enemies to help you, huge bosses with small weak points to hit, a bonus stage (specially the music) where you jump off a building and have to hit multiple climbing ninjas and the special power that included fire rains and pillars of fire.
A very difficult but still great game!
