Still looks like crap... What happened to you Itadaki! Where's the Ninja Gaiden epicness?!

TwoForce3196d ago

People have changed these days.

blackblades3196d ago

Literally, things changed when 360/ps3/wii came out imo. Probably cause I didn't get on the Internet for info before they came out.

sashimi3196d ago

not much of a budget and dev hell will kill almost any game.

Sureshot3196d ago

Can't really argue budget though. I mean I've seen indie games that shit all over this graphically.

Lukejrl3195d ago

The budget was blown and the time was lost because Itadaki preferred to spend the money on hooked and blow. Why do you see him always in sunglasses?

d_g3196d ago

"Ninja Gaiden"

that game was so awesome i wish they will bring it back soon

pcz3195d ago

did nintendo have a hand in making this game? if not i can definitely see this game going multi-platform.

it has happened to a lot of games that were supposedly wiiu exclusives.

iplay1up23195d ago

This is another game Nintendo saved from being scraped, like Bayonetta 2. So yes this is a Wii U exclusive, but if it ends up being horrible, who cares.

I personally have a little hope it might be fun, but I will wait and see next month when it releases in Europe,

terrible Graphix
he ought to make Ninja gaiden 4 for Ps4/Xone
I have missed Hayabusa

fallacious3196d ago (Edited 3196d ago )

Is that supposed to be an improvement? they both look like they were taken from a game made in 2004.

MSBAUSTX3196d ago

I for one hope the game is fun. I dont want a Wii U exclusive to fail. I want to see the game in action before I judge it. Conduit and Conduit 2 didnt look as good as shooters on the 360 or PS3 last gen and they were both really fun games. So i will wait and see formyself instead of some "screenshot".

Talk about a kick in the nutter butters

naruga2661d ago (Edited 2661d ago )

this game creator payed his idiocy to change the development for exclusive release on a dying hopeless console with the best way ....the game was generally good i liked it and was the closest thing to a hardcore Ninja Gaiden we could get on new consoles ....but literaly its creator was idiot as f..k to undermine his game (it was obviously downgraded for Wii u) and release it exclusively on a underpowered system for some cash,destroyed his name in a moment

rjason122660d ago (Edited 2660d ago )

Oh boo hoo. Someone didn't get a game to come to their system.

@Edmix
Believe me I know the feeling haha, just pushing out a similar statement many others make, just cause.

ShaunCameron2660d ago (Edited 2660d ago )

@ rjason

Apparently.

@ XisThatKid

How did they ask for it? You know the company responsible for the engine used to make the OG game went under forcing Itagaki to scrap it and start over, right? Not to mention THQ, its original publisher, eventually withdrawing support before going under. As for it becoming a Wii U exclusive, Nintendo was the one willing to help Itagaki with the funding to finish making the game.

_-EDMIX-_2660d ago

This is easily one of the stupidest investments I've ever seen any company ever make for an exclusive by a third party. I'm surprised you think the game is any good at all because I don't really believe the Wii U made this game bad, believe it was going to be bad regardless of where it was. The Wii U has a handful of really great games please do not blame the hardware for how crappy this game actually is. To my understanding when you create a game for a specific piece of Hardware your job is to adapt. So do not blame the hardware for why this game was horrible blame the developer for even downgrading the game in the first place as opposed to adapting to their situation. If you have to downgrade a game so significantly that it begins to affect the design and quality you're probably not supposed to be downgrading it in the first place to such a platform. I don't blame the platform in this respect I blame the developer because they chose to continue despite knowing the hardware differences. The regular Wii U exclusives don't have that problem because they were made to actually work on that platform...

@rjason- could be because it sounds to me like he basically likes the game but he's angry at the decision of it being exclusive somewhere else

XisThatKid2660d ago (Edited 2660d ago )

I have not felt so selfish about a game before. I like many waited and waited patiently since this games release and out of no where Wii U exclusive. At the time i didn't have a Wii u and honestly i wanted it for ps3 but that never happened nor for 4. Anyway i honestly am glad this happened. Save for the innocent dev and people involved But i never wanted a game to fail so badly. Not to mention when i finally played it i think it sucks imho. I'm fine with exclusives but when a game's announced for your console or platform of choice then retracted they're asking for it.

bouzebbal2660d ago

he had no big name to start with.. this same guy did the same to DOA4 and Ninja Gaiden for 360 and in the end he talks s### about Team Ninja about NG3 and DOA5. He's a loser !

blackblades2661d ago

Ikr it looked interesting in the beginning before it became an nintendo exclusive. Don't know what happened when it became an exclusive.

_-EDMIX-_2660d ago

Who knows , it was probably always going to be bad.

Ravenor2660d ago

A lot happens when a game gets developed. A proof of concept demo or pre rendered video being received well doesn't necessarily equate to a game game being good.

BLKxSEPTEMBER2660d ago

I'm still looking to buy a copy at a reasonable price.

ocelot072660d ago

Depends on where you are located. Here in the UK you can pick this up for around £12.

BLKxSEPTEMBER2660d ago

I'm in California. I haven't seen a hard copy yet.

xMANB3ARP1G2660d ago

bro you wont they made so few copies they are mostly locked in cages atm in ppls collections waiting for the value to skyrocket.

BLKxSEPTEMBER2660d ago

Yeah that's what I figured.

xMANB3ARP1G2660d ago

i only say that because im in the same boat all physical copies near me were scooped up day one and ebay had a field day

alfcrippinjr2660d ago

and this is why we should not support nintendo any more
they done it with the wii and they killed the ds off for no reason.

total bad for business

ShaunCameron2660d ago

Um. You can still get the main D3rd game, albeit digitally. The only thing they killed here was the online multiplayer.

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory2660d ago

Wait why are peopole acting like they care now? You didn't when it was released.

gangsta_red2660d ago

Yea, I haven't heard a peep or a whisper of this game since its debut.

gamer78042660d ago

its the principle of it, i don't like seeing any games shut down so quickly

Chaos_Order2660d ago

I don't think Itagaki is crazy for making a Wii U exclusive.

I think he's crazy for pushing out a half baked, flawed as all hell, generic gore fest on the Wii U without making use of any of the console's specific features, and throwing his toys out of the pram when people criticise it.

The ups, downs and future of Tomonobu Itagaki's Devil's Third

Tomonobu Itagaki, outspoken former leader of Tecmo's Team Ninja and current leader of Valhalla Game Studios, has spent the last eight years of his life working on the action game Devil's Third.

PhoenixUp2708d ago

Sucks to spend eight years on a project only to have it flop

MilkMan2708d ago

Love the interview. He's a great developer and I liked Devils Third.
