Mini Ninjas (Wii): No Inventory System — How Progression Works

Mini Ninjas on Wii does not have a traditional inventory screen. Progression is handled through automatic collection and the main menu.

What You Collect: Scrolls

• Scrolls: Glowing collectibles hidden in levels. Each scroll unlocks a new playable character (Futo, Suzume, etc.) or a special ability (Kuji magic).
• No Item Management: You don't equip, drop, or trade items. Consumables (health peppers, shurikens) are used instantly or mapped to D-pad.

Tracking Progress

1. In-Game HUD: Shows current Kuji magic charges, health, and shuriken count.
2. Main Menu > "Scrolls" / "Characters": Displays which ninjas and abilities are unlocked.
3. Pause Menu: Shows collected scrolls for current level / total.

Kuji Magic (Spells)

Unlocked via scrolls. Assigned to Wii Remote gestures (e.g., draw circle for Fire, slash for Lightning). No inventory management needed—just gesture to cast.

Summary: If you're looking for a "Backpack" or "Items" menu, it doesn't exist. Check the Main Menu to see unlocked heroes and magic.
