Shinobi is a Sega System 16 arcade game developed by Sega. It is the first in a long line of Shinobi games, and follows the journey of a ninja called Joe Musashi who must free children from his clan from the evil Zeed organisation.

As well as being released in arcades, the game was brought to the Sega Master System in 1988. It was also brought to the Amiga, Amstrad CPC, Atari ST, Commodore 64, DOS computers, MSX, NES, TurboGrafx-16, and ZX Spectrum. More recently the arcade version has been released on the Xbox Live Arcade and Virtual Console services for the Xbox 360 and Wii consoles respectively.

A sequel, entitled The Revenge of Shinobi, was released in 1989 for the Sega Mega Drive (and later the Mega-Tech).
