The Archfiend (the final boss) of the new Ninja Gaiden 2 resembles the final boss of Ninja Gaiden for the NES. For one thing, both are called Jashin in japanese, both have attacks where they spit out copious amounts of "stuff" at you (on the NES it was fireballs, in the modern one it's barfed up blood and skeletons), both have to be hit in their head and then their chest core, and both are summoned by weird ritualistic rites. The modern version's head looks a lot like the NES head while it is "incubating" in cutscenes, and under that shell it's revealed to have its newer skull-faced head.
also the statue in ninja gaiden 2 (the new one) is the statue from ninja gaiden 2 or 3 (old ones)
