Whats correct rom to use?

ROMs that match with the checksum:

13dd6801246da226b0c2db339df4a246
or
e12c5c2897ed095f8d26c7578afddfda

You can check if your ROM checksum matches here:

All roms version dont have a checksum like you post.
I tested in :
Ninja Gaiden Shadow - 03fsca0411...
Shadow Warriors - 6fd91c3ce96...
Ninja Ryukenden - fcbfcf5427...
In my profile only rom Shadow Warriors load achievements, but the checksum dont match like you post and dont save the achievements.

When i unzip the file the checksum match, but dont won a achievements.

You can help me?

Hello there,

Getting all the achievements was nice, but i suggest a modification for the one called "Master Stage 1!"
http://retroachievements.org/Achievement/18242

You're supposed to beat the boss with 4 magic left instead of 5 for the others. I guess this is because the author was unaware that you can actually get 5 magic in the first stage. The last one is hidden just before the boss, just press down+A and you can go under the platform.

The modification I suggest is to require to beat the boss with 5 magic instead of 4.
This is what I did the first time and I was surprised to not get the achievement because I didn't read them all correctly, I just assumed you were supposed to do a perfect kill like the others.

I made the modification suggested by Desty, now all 'mastered stage' achievements need to have full life and 5 magic left.

I'm proposing a rescore for this game:

10 -> 1
10 -> 1
10 -> 3
12 -> 1
12 -> 1
12 -> 2
12 -> 5
13 -> 2
13 -> 2
13 -> 2
13 -> 5
13 -> 3
13 -> 3
13 -> 3
15 -> 10
15 -> 4
15 -> 4
20 -> 25
20 -> 10
10 -> 3
25 (no change)
25 (no change)
20 -> 25
30 -> 25
35 -> 50

Total: 400 -> 240

Each level takes around 1-3 minutes, and most of the challenge is in the last few achievements & beating the game, so hopefully this seems fair.

This game deserve more challenges, see below what I suggest:

Pass through stages damageless
Without use magic
Without losing a live
Really need a 1CC Run
And possibly more

I know that's not much, but a least will have more things to do, instead only finish the game.

Revision finished, also added one more rom on the set
