''To most gamers, Ninja Gaiden conjures up an image of an ultra-violent, ultra-difficult ninja game. This isn't the case for the new addition to the series, Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword for the Nintendo DS. While Dragon Sword is unique in its presentation and gameplay, it doesn't deviate from franchise's core values of super-quick ninja fighting.
In Dragon Sword, Ryu's female ninja apprentice, Momiji, is kidnapped, and he must venture to rescue her. Along the way, he figures out that the kidnapping is linked to his Dragon Sword and ends up battling a whole slew of demons along the way.
To play the game, you hold the DS sideways like a book, and everything - including movement, guarding, and attacking - is performed via the touch-screen. The one exception is guarding, which is done by pressing any face button. The DS's microphone is also incorporated into the gameplay; in addition to other puzzles, you'll have to yell to wake up an old man and blow into it to extinguish flames. It's one of the few games on the DS where using the mic isn't gimmicky and actually makes sense.''
We recently featured an article about five unannounced 3DS games that we would like to see Nintendo reveal in 2012. Following up on that idea, here are six games that would fit well on the 3DS in 2012, each coming from a third-party developer that has already pledged support for the handheld. Let the speculation begin on GameRabies!
I would like something from Platinum games...maybe God Hand 2 3D or just God hand 3D :)
then new No more heroes 3DS
new Sin & Punishment 3DS
new Madworld 3DS
new Silent Hill 3DS
Kororinpa 3DS & Bomberman 3DS & Omega 5 (damn you Konami, for now)..
Based on his appearance in Ninja Gaiden 2, the deluxe action figure joins the new ‘Best of Player Select’ videogame figure assortment. The series features some of the most Electronic Theatre Imagepopular figures from the ‘Player Select’ series, repackaged and offered at a reduced price. Many of the original releases were never made available in the UK previously, and the Ryu Hayabusa deluxe action figure was one of those that gamers may have missed out on.
Gaming Gauge writes:"So we recently got a look at how DS games function on the 3DS. As you can see the games are upscaled to fill the screen rather than mapped 1:1(although the option may be there). The downside to this method is that the games lose a bit a clarity, they can appear a bit blurry and fuzzy. I thought it would be interesting to make some mock up screenshots to compare how different styles are affected by the upscaling."
3DS cant even run ds games without fuzziness while the mighty NGP can run PS3 games
