"The Japanese version was based on the manga series GeGeGe no Kitaro, but the game was changed to the generic "Ninja Kid" and all references to Kitaro were removed for the American version." ~ Wikipedia.

So the original name of the character, before the localisation 'snafu', is Kyo. If one can find the Japanese manual, it'll affirm that.

Maybe it's a regional thing?

The manual does refer to him as Kyo, though.

How does everyone know that his name is “Kyo”? In the manual and on the box he’s just called “Ninja Kid”, and there isn’t any text in the game labeling him as “Kyo” either....

I probably would never have gotten to this game in my life, thanks for doing the deed.
