"It has been confirmed by Gamspot Korea that, Ninja Gaiden 2, the sequel to one of the most acclaimed titles on the original Xbox, will be publicly shown to the world for the first time at this years Tokyo Game Show.

This was confirmed by an insider in the Japanese gaming industry. According to the insider, the PS3 version of the game has not been confirmed at the moment, but the game will in fact be shown for the Xbox 360 system. He further states that, the game will be shown on the Xbox platform at TGS, because of the relationship with Microsoft and the developers."

"However, there is a possibility that, the game will first be released for the Xbox 360 with a PS3 version following shortly. The industry insider also states that, this game is important to Microsoft because, it has potential to increase console sales in Japan" :shock: Does this make the DMC4 going multiplat issue, even now?

nothing will help MS sway japan, just release it at the same time dont even bother holding the ps3 one back a month or whatever so they can hit the advertisers all at once.

That is what I keep hearing. But the reason I stopped playing NG is because the save files keep currupting once I get to the 6th level when I play on 360.

My save keeps currupting when I save after the tenicle boss. Besides that NG is not a traditional Action game, it reminds me more of a string combo fighter.

oh and about Ninja Gaiden 2 going to Ps3 thing, thats kinda unsure IMHO. NGS didn't sell that well, they shipped 450K and that hasn't all been sold yet. Plus, the Ps3's fanbase is kina small. Itagaki is a 360 fanboy, so IF it comes to Ps3, expect to wait atleast 6-12 months

I wonder if they released Sigma on the PS3 during the game drought, just to gain a fanbase on the system for the sequal. Its possible, especially since they know there is a fanbase on the 360........what do you guys think? :?

Unless I hear it from Itagaki or Team Ninja, then I wouldn't believe any insider chatter.

One of the main reasons i BOUGHT the xbox 360 and THE reason i bought Xbox..NINJA GAIDEN! It's going to own everything and Tecmo are kidding themselves, its going to do jack **** in Japan. It's going to sell far more than the original NG in U.S though duie to the growing popularity of the game.

True NG's story is crap but the gameplay makes up for it, it's simply masterful.

No. Itagaki was an Xbox fanboy. I don't think he favors the 360 as much. Itagaki has always said it's about power. If it was about sales numbers, he would have developed for PS2 last gen. We'll just have to wait and see what he decides to do with this gen. Personally, I think he likes the PS3, and that they will get a version of NG2. However, I think it will come out 9 months later with new features. Kind of like NGB.

I've got a two tier skepticism going.

1. Confirmed by GS Korea, not the developer.

2. Will it actually be Ninja Gaiden 2, or Ninja Gaiden Black Sigma Delta Squadron Omega, which will just be Ninja Gaiden over again with a new hat for Ryu?

You THINK he likes the Ps3? Well I THINK I will win the lottery and become a millionaire. Thats called wishful thinking, wt doesn't require any facts, you for example didn't use any facts. Cuz you didn't take the time to read more interviews with Itagaki, instead you THOUGHT what you wanted to hear.

Let me tell you, I DID read most of his interviews, and in his latest ones, he clearly states that the XBOX 360 is his favourite console of choice, and the DS is his favourite handheld(but thats a different story). So, do you now see that your baseless and unfounded statement sounds ridiculous in my point of view..

I'm in the same boat, untill they fix the camara angles. static angles have always bugged me for some reason.

Last time I checked static meant stationary and Ninja Gaiden did NOT have a stationary camera except for 2 bosses.

He said the "PS3 was truley a great machine". But regardless of all of that Sigmas' sales were too pathetic to warrant a sequel.the original NG on Xbox shipped over a million worldwide and has a very large core fanbase on xbox, especially in U.S. Even IF it does go to PS3 after 9 or so months noone will care. Nowa days there are very few exclusive games.
