"The Wii U has a problem. It isn’t the lack of games. Well, that is part of it. The issue is that developers and publishers are looking at the system and its meager library and, instead of creating new content that would make people want to buy the system, they’re releasing ports of games PS3, Xbox 360 and PC owners had years ago. It’s so terribly disappointing and the system deserves better."
It's been 10 years since the launch of Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor's Edge on Wii U - it's about time we received another sequel.
In the conclusion to a three part series, CV takes a look at the most recent Ninja Gaiden games, for better and for worse.
They need to make a true sequel to Ninja Gaiden 2, that was the most satisfying combat I've experienced in a hack n slash game.
been playing 1&2 on and off since they were released. I usually will play until I get frustrated then take another year off lol. Nver tried 3 or the 4th one even though they are in my backlog.
I tried to go back to Sigma but good god those controls are just insufferable. Couldn't do it.

NG:RE is good (2 was better though) and I havent played the others. My kids will likely get a kick out of bolt and tembo while I will give the F:13th the old college try.
The games with gold selection is trash. Besides Friday the 13th. Ninja Gaiden 3 is the worse in the whole series. Bolt and Tango...laughable
NG:RE is better then 1 or Black. Waaaaay more options. Better graphically. More playable characters. More costumes. More weapons. More ninjitsu. More enemy variety. In comparison. The first game is basic af.
I'd like to see HD remakes of SNES games on the eShop.
I like to think of them as GOTY editions instead of year old ports. If someone is strictly a Nintendo console owner, they must be at least somewhat happy with these games. I know a huge Nintendo fan that was blown away when he finally got the chance to play Mass Effect 3 on a Nintendo console.
It's Nintendo's own fault. They have an antiquated way of thinking that makes them think that they can do as little as possible and continue to achieve success. You want 3rd party developers to make games for the Wii U? They have to have a good reason to make them.
It is the price Nintendo has to pay for being 'late to the HD party' according to 3rd party publishers. If the Wii U was released when instead of the original Wii i don't think we would see these problems happening with the system.
Nintendo's reluctance has once again proven to bite them back the same when they resisted the idea of moving to an optical format for the N64.
Don't get me wrong the industry needs a healthy Nintendo but i do believe they need to adjust to the changing landscape of the industry. It is ok to still do what Nintendo does best but embrace change when they do come.
This happens sometimes, but at least these versions have new features.
Looking forward to Wonderful 101.
