"Retro Weekend is a new segment from GOS. We will showcase an old school game that some of you may or may not have heard of, or the first game that started a whole franchise. The game we are going to show this week is Ninja Gaiden. You all heard about the games for the Xbox, 360 and now the ps3.
Ninja Gaiden was originally known as Ninja Ryukenden: Legend of the Ninja Dragon Sword in Japan. The arcade game was released in 1988 in North America and Europe and 1989 in Japan. Ninja Gaiden moved to the NES in America in 1989 and then Europe in 1991. It became a huge hit and went on to become the series that we all know it to be today."
Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 debuted in 2009; ahead of Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty's launch, it's time to look back at one of Tecmo Koei's best titles.
Two of Tecmo's classic series, Dead or Alive and Ninja Gaiden, are getting new games with a possible reboot of both series.
Why do we need a remake of Dead or Alive, instead of a new installment in the series ?
There's no remake it says reboot. There is a difference just like a difference with remaster as well. They all have re doesn't mean they are the same. They want to reboot and start fresh after both series with South. With there success with nioh series it might be a good idea and hopefully goes well for them and the games.
Fighting games are too shallow, they were good at first.. up til around Tekken 3 and Soul Calibur on Dreamcast, because they had a ton of extra modes and challenges and stuff. Everything after is basically the same, or with even less content.
Really? I feel like they add way too many systems and options to some of the newer games. Like Soul Calibur 6 for example, feels like they'res just too much going on, whereas I loved 2 and memorized all the skills and options for my favorite characters, played through most of the modes as well.
A new Ninja Gaiden game could be outsourced to another developer, but only if it's one that fits the Ninja Gaiden pedigree.
Eh, beside team ninja, its platinum games and both could do good but also bad going by there history. Dmc5 devs is another or a Namco team.
