Team Ninja working on three new games

Team Ninja is working on three new titles, according to Tecmo's new president.

Speaking at a press conference in Japan, newly appointed Tecmo president Yasuharu Kakihara announced that the beleaguered publisher's star development team is working on three new games.

Sadly though, Kakihara declined to mention what these three games will be, or which platforms they're in development for.

Team Ninja has been linked with several new projects in recent times, although nothing has been formally announced.

I'd say those games are going to be for the Wii and DS judging by how much they are supporting both at this point.

Fox015713d ago

I agree. I'ld so love to play another DoA (DoA IV is 3 yrs old now and there's barly anyone online) on PS3 or 360 I don't care, just want one on the Next-Gen consoles pease!

BrotherNick5713d ago

I support DOA for all consoles, I'm a perv!

kesvalk5713d ago

ninja gaiden for Wii, i would love if they did it just like the old skool ones, or better a ninja gaiden 1 or 2 remake, that would be awesome...

pp5713d ago

Yes three more xbox360 exclusives on the way

OgTheClever5713d ago (Edited 5713d ago )

It will be funny to see you PP your pants when proved wrong.

DavidMacDougall5713d ago

All flops. Why should they make good games with retards like you on there side anyway

juuken5713d ago

Don't hold your breath peepee.

chrisnick5713d ago

since square is about to buy tecmo....odds are those games will make it on the 360.....sh!t, we might even see a gaiden port...which of course, like sigma, would be better than the original.

Pain5713d ago

yea...Payed for with Office / Excel /Moron Money Exclusive bound by Legal Contracts are hard to get out of.
:(

@ DavidMacDougall

Flops?

Ninja Gaiden 2 a 8.2 out of 10 average reviewed (check Gamerankings).

So in your view, GT5P and Heavenly Sword are also flops then, right?

juuken5713d ago

Mart, you were calling Heavenly Sword a flop. That's an 8.1 average. Ninja Gaiden 2 scored an 8.2 average.

Back in 2007, you bots would have screamed flop when these scores popped up for games on the PS3, claiming there will never be a AAA game for the PS3. Now you don't want to call those scores flops anymore because you're getting them for your games?

Oooh, that's right, Heavenly Sword, GT5P, and all the other games were on the PS3 so that means they're flops!

juuken5713d ago

A new Ninja Gaiden?
Hopefully?

Mugen Souls Retro Review – Sexy Demon Space Adventure

Gary Green said: We have a juxtaposition of 2D and 3D visuals, flashy turn-based combat, quirky anime characters with cheeky dialogue with plenty of partial nudity; Yes, this is a Compile Heart JRPG. Whilst the engine is borrowed from Hyperdimension Neptunia mk2, Mugen Souls is more of a Disgaea spin-off. It’s not a strategy RPG as such, it merely sits within Disgaea’s ever-expanding universe (Multiverse? Netherverse? Your guess is as good as mine). You won’t find cameos though, since Mugen Souls is a franchise which aims to stand on its own two feet.

Looking Back At 2008, An Unbelievably Incredible Year Of Video Game Releases

Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."

CrimsonWing697h ago

I don’t think anything can compare to 2023

lucasnooker7h ago

1998 - the best year in gaming! Metal gear solid, crash bandicoot 3, medievil, half life, ocarina of time, thief, tenchu, resident evil 2, Spyro, tomb raider 3, oddworld abes exodus, banjo kazooie.

It was a different breed of a gaming era. You’ll never understand what it was like back then. The aura of gaming, it was different!

KyRo6h ago(Edited 6h ago)

I second this. Gaming was a lot more varied and fun than it is today. I'm 35 so getting on compared to some here but I got to see all the changes from NES up to now but I've never felt so disappointed in any generation than I have this current gen. I was expecting more from this generation rather than prettier versions of games that came before it. Game mechanics have become so refined that alot of games feel the same and has done for a while now.

Maybe it's time to have a break for a while. I love gaming but I don't feel I get much fun in the traditional sense out of it anymore.

CrimsonWing696h ago(Edited 6h ago)

Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil 2, Abe’s Exodus, and Ocarina of Time are the only things from that list that I liked.

Here’s the 2023 game releases that I personally liked… and big releases that I didn’t care for:

- Dead Space Remake
- Wo Long Dynatsy
- Resident Evil 4 Remake
- Diablo 4
- Fire Emblem Engage
- Hogwarts Legcay
- Street Fighter 6
- Hi-Fi Rush
- Like a Dragon: Ishin
- Octopath Traveler 2
- Final Fantasy Pixel Remasters
- Final Fanatsy XVI (actually ended up not liking this, but it was still a big deal release)
- Baldur’s Gate 3
- Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon
- Lies of P
- Mortal Kombat 1
- Marvel’s Spider-Man 2
- Starfield (Ended up hating this one, but big release)
- Super Mario Bros. Wonder
- Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (I’m an old-school Zelda fan, but didn’t really enjoy this game)
- Alan Wake 2

I mean, honestly I’ve never seen a year of major IP releases like that, ever.

Profchaos3h ago(Edited 3h ago)

Isn't it just a generational thing realistically.

I've been gaming since way back and I some of my favourite games go as far back as the late 80s for me each generation has a year or two of game changing releases one after another before an inevitable dry spell.

I kind of agree gaming had a different feel games hit different because we didn't have the internet nothing got spoiled and you really had to put in the effort to beat a puzzle which could set entire groups of people looking for a solution. But most importantly games were experimental and not as cookie cutter as today even basics like controls were not universal today r2 is shoot l2 is ads garunteed you can't deviate from that in a shooter back then it could of been square, R1 or R1 and circle nothing was standard.

But as time moves on a new generation picks up their controller they are going to be interested in different things that PS1 demo disc with the t Rex blew our primitive 16 bit brains back on launch but to kids today it's laughable.
The new gen of kids coming into to hobby seem to value different things to us there seems to be a huge focus on online play, streamers, gaming personalities, and social experiences, convience of digital downloads. To me I value none of that but that's ok like my parents not liking the band's I would listen to its just the natural cycle.

6 Fun Games Where You Actually Play As The Bad Guy

While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.

Profchaos12h ago

Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.

It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny

Tacoboto12h ago

Armored Core VI?

Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.

Is something big coming soon to branch the story?

banger8811h ago

No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).

ChasterMies1h ago

Trevor in GTA 6 is a sadist and psychopath who dabbles in cannibalism. Should be top of the list. These game “news” sites should hire people that know games.
