Is that sword that you wager to get shadow in WoR still called Striker in the GBA version?

I believe it is, but don't take my word for it.

Maybe Striker was a bad translation? |

The original Woolsey translation gave the weapons of Cyan and Shadow English names; Kunai became Imperial, Kikuichimonji became Forged, stuff like that. In the GBA game, the new translator decided that since they are ninja blades and katanas, both eastern-style weapons, it'd be nicer to have the original names intact. The Ichigeki (meaning: one blow) was always the Ichigeki, it was just called 'Striker' by Woolsey.
