1up interviews Tomonobu Itagaki on Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword (DS)

From the interview:

"So, why did I choose to do a portable game in the first place? This is also simple: to challenge myself. You might ask why I must do so, but that question would be foolish. Any creative endeavor must begin with a challenge. It took me 10 years to make the Dead or Alive series the number one fighting game on the planet. Making Ninja Gaiden the world's finest action game was a bit quicker, yet it still took four years. There are obviously many reasons why I was able to create these two franchises. One thing that I can say is that, as a group of people that love to challenge ourselves, the hurdles that I set for our team when making these games were so high that we couldn't help but be thrilled, and as a result the development process for each game was always very challenging."

DS games on the 3DS(mock ups): A Comparison

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."
