Siliconera writes: "The OFLC just rated Tenchu 4 and in the land down under it's considered as a multiplatform game. Most Wii exclusives like the recently rated We Cheer are rightfully only listed as a Nintendo Wii game. Tenchu 4 is not. This news comes after we had an e-mail exchange with a member of the Tenchu 4 staff who told us they were working on "Tenchu 4 PSP". I wrote this news off as a typo, but with the OFLC listing Tenchu 4 as a multiplatform game I think this was an accidental leak to us. Also possibly related is Acquire's Tokyo Game Show line up. Tenchu 4 is on there, of course, Dungeons & Dam is underneath it sitting right on top of an unannounced game. Perhaps, this slot will be used for a Tenchu 4 PSP port."
Games2C:
"The difficulty in engaging normal soldiers in swordplay is actually toned down a notch when reaching end of level boss characters. This is a very telling sign that the developers knew that the swordplay mechanic was invariably broken and subsequently made tweaks to the big boss characters or face a totally broken game. It's shoddy, and utterly spoils what could have been a great debut for the loveable sneaky ninja. Instead as we said in the beginning, it's a gruelling path that lies ahead for any would–be Wii assassins – patience isn't so much a virtue, rather a prerequisite."
VGC writes: "There hasn't been a bigger surprise this generation than the success of Nintendo's Wii, but while the Wii continues to sell in extraordinary quantities, it has been lacking in some genres. Tenchu: Shadow Assassins is looking to cover one of those gaps in the Wii's library with its unique approach to the stealth genre. As the fourth main title in the series, does Shadow Assassins set a shining example on Wii, or is it doomed to the mediocrity of the recent Tenchu spinoffs?"
From Software published 2 new Japanese TV commercials from Tenchu 4. Enjoy.
AWESOME if true because I have a PSP :)
awesome, a psp version... too cool!
i wonder how both will sell in comparison to one another in Japan.
What is this? Is the PSP stealing exclusivity now? So much for the PSP being death.
why is it even on wii in the first place , if they wanna make the game mature and grow more they should put it on ps3 / 360 not wii
If the PSP can get Tenchu 4 that would be great news. I guess you people will not have to wait long TGS is right around the corner. So I hope this is true because if it is this would be great news.
