Everyone needs to buy Sigma and that would be a compelling reason to put NG2 on the PS3.

the video suggests that Itagaki is not gonna make NG2 with the PS3 in mind meaning that the ps3, if t does get it, it will be a port

I always thought it was going to be 360 exclusive anyways. But I think if Sigma sells really well, it's a possiblity that PS3 would get it too.

It all depends on Sigma's sales figures. if it sells well, no doubt NG2 will be headed to PS3 as well.

If Sigma sells well (1 million+), I guarantee NG2 will also be on the PS3. You can quote me on that :)

Because theyre different companies?

Its not a fair game- just because one great game goes multiplat doesnt mean their great game will go multiplatform

this developer dont care about sales! doa 3 and ultimate were released on the xbox, they could of sold 20 times more on the ps2. sure its stupid as tekken looked as good as doa 3. but thats ust the way it is. perhaps team ninja are transferrign to the ps3, but ninja gaiden may remain a exculsive. the developers choice of platform goes agaisnt business logic.

not neccessarily- dont forget, Team Ninja aleady made 2 games for the 360 and have confirmed at least 2 more for it (NG2 and Code Cronus, both action games- DOA5 is still unconfirmed)

Are you cerial?

"Many complain that Itagaki "sold himself" to Microsoft by developing exclusive Team Ninja franchises and making strong comments against the Sony PlayStation platform, despite earlier claims that he was going to release Ninja Gaiden for the Playstation 2. [2] However, Itagaki has always maintained that he develops his games exclusively for the most powerful console on the market at the time of design. This is evidenced by the fact that DOA2 appeared on the Dreamcast and Playstation 2 (as DOA2 Hardcore) when they were the most advanced consoles of their time, and all Itagaki developed games since then (DOA series, DOAX, Ninja Gaiden) have appeared on the Xbox and Xbox 360, continuing the trend. In addition to this, Itagaki has authorized an upgraded remake of Ninja Gaiden for the PS3, Ninja Gaiden Sigma."

He's in charge.  You just dont like him because he is biased in favor of the 360. He has said nothing bad about it and almost all good. The worst thing he said was that MS advertising and translations in Japan are somewhat bad. Sakaguchi (the guy who made the best FFs including the ps1 games) also said this

wrong, he says in the video that he passed the baton for the port to the ps3. You seem to have miss interpreted. He says specifically for the port to NG sigma.

That is not why I dislike him. He didn't put the trampoline and some other minigames in Extreme 2 when Team Ninja wanted to. He also said he didn't want to make the girls look like total *****s in the game and I said "wtf watch the opening and don't tell me that!" Also he never put Racheal in DOA. Plus...I am just not a fan of his, I don't know why I just don't like his personality.

I have a 360 and while its broken MS has been kind enough to send me a smashed repair box >.> and now want to send me another one that's bound to be smashed too.... but thats another story... I want GeOW darnit!

I'd be thoroughly amazed if it was not a multi-platform title.

BTW, is NG: Sigma the first basic upgrade port of a prior generation title? I'm NOT criticizing it --- Ninja Gaiden Sigma is beautiful and still insanely difficult --- but I really can't think of another console where a great game from the prior gen was ported over and, well, prettied up.

That's the only one that comes to mind. But several mini games were rejected from exteme 2 when the devs didn't want to... Which thinking about it its was really a 59 dollar opening video with a 1 dollar game >.>

No where in the video was there mention of NG2. Plus the video like people have said is old. I remember reading that if sigma sales were good NG2 would come out on both systems. It did not say if it would be later on or whenever.

It's a win win situation anyway.  If NG2 is exclusive than MS payed big bucks to keep it that way, but if they didn't then it comes to the PS3.

COMPLETELY forgot about about that. Good one. Excellent multiplayer.

I actually think that now might be the perfect time for Gaiden. The PS3, by and large, is owned by hardcore gamers and this title is a God-send for them. It will never sell multiple millions of copies, but it will likely sell to a rather large percentage of the PS3 market.

I always thought it was going to be 360 exclusive anyways. But I think if Sigma sells really well, it's a possiblity that PS3 would get it too.Flame_Blade88

People always say this about NG2 but the thing is that Ninja Gaiden Sigma is not a $60 game at most its about $30 game.  If Tecmo sold NGS for $30 not only would they sell more of the game but they would most likely make more money because the game would be selling so much better than what it would be at $60.

The game is being released in July just right around the time when lair is getting released and not to mention Heavenly Sword will be released one month later in August when this game is released.
