In a shocking turn of events, Tomonobu Itagaki has left Tecmo and is suing the company. The head of Team Ninja and creator of Ninja Gaiden and Dead or Alive has some monetary disputes with the company. In part of the letter sent to the press, Itagaki writes:
Before the start of development on Dead or […]
One of the craziest prototypes for the original Xbox was a giant shiny silver X with a green button in the middle. Yeah, who’s going to put that in their TV stand? Thing needs a table of it’s own. Anyway, it looks Team Ninja is paying homage to the humble beginnings of Microsoft’s foray into […]
According to Major Nelson, Japan isn’t the only place that’ll get to play the Ninja Gaiden 2 demo. In a Twitter update, Major dropped this tid-bit:
Looking for the NG 2 Demo? I am told that it will be available by the end of next week

You get to fight a giant flying boss in a subway in Ninja Gaiden 2. It looks like it’ll whoop that ass. Hope you’re prepared to throw a controller or two, because it’s certain to happen with this game.
Who knew that giant worm like monsters lived in the subway? Luckily we have Ryu to clean up the tunnels for us. Graphically this game looks insane and the gameplay seems silky smooth.
Hit the jump for some good old fashioned hack and slash action followed by a rooftop battle.

Microsoft and Team Ninja released a new bunch of screenshots for Ninja Gaiden II, as well as some cool new concept art for Sonia. She’s a new playable character in the game, in case you didn’t know.
Check out all the pretty new ninja goodness after the jump.
Thanks to Tha Doc for the tip!
I have to say that everything I have played on this title so far is excellent. Ninja Gaiden on the DS runs smooth, controls great and looks terrific. The cut scenes are all done in an anime style and show off well on the DS screens. Holding the DS sideways to control things is not […]
Want to play the demo for Ninja Gaiden 2, but feel betrayed by that cluster-f that happened at GDC? Your chance is coming soon as Team Ninja has announced a playable demo in May on the Xbox Live Marketplace.
There is also supposedly some exclusive content coming April 15th. No doubt this will be some gamer […]
