Ninja Gaiden Black on PS3??? - Jun 15, 2006 10:44
NG2 will undoubtedly end up on 360, ...that' s virtually been confirmed already. But my guess is that it will be multi-format, with 360 seeing it first and PS3 getting a revamped NGB in the meantime.

Team Ninja has never really been fond of the Sony, so why release games for their consoles!

There goes breakfast..
There are two rules to success:

True that,
Itagaki dosen' t think Japanese developer/hardware fully understand the relationship between American support, since Microsoft release the original xbox, the only strong Japanese support was from tecmo ' ' Team Ninja' ' which release xbox exclusive titles, now with the contract and a form of partnership, I' d say all of Team Ninja future titles will be an xbox360 exclusive, now Sony in the other hand has many 3rd party support, example Namco ' ' Tekken 6' ' and Sega ' ' Virtual Fighter 5' ' now it seem that Itagaki realize that Sony is getting a better treatment, and Midrosoft is lacking support, he want' s to back-up Microsoft.
Now in my opinion, Team Ninja is best to stick with Microsoft, from these past couple of years the ' ' DOA' ' and ' ' Ninja Gaiden' ' series had made a better choice on Microsoft rather then Sony, thats the way I see it, you guys remember ' ' Crash Bandicoot' ' the ex-mascot of Sony, ever since he switch platform (to Microsoft) his career was over, I don' t know if he has any plan' s for the next-gen console.

In my humble opinion Crash Bandicoot' s career was over becuase the sequels got worse and worse, just like Sonic. But I doubt Crash will make a comeback like him.

Hmmm, you' re right. I also see Sonic career slipping away anytime soon, Yuji Naka and Sega, had manage to place him in the next-gen platform even for Nintendo wii, but the fans seem tired of sequel after sequel, I guess Sonic will raise the white flag later on, the franchise is old and not enough new innovative gameplay, Miyamoto is a very innovative guy, he always improve every Mario game with new innovative gameplay, thats why Mario will always be around.

Well Itagaki expressed a lot of concern about PS3' s development price, and more recently the retail price of the hardware, so this could easily be a way around that since it wouldn' t cost much at all to upgrade the game as all the assets are already in place.

Xbox had an NVIDIA card just as PS3 does, so porting the game would be very easy.

DMC3:DA (just released on PC ) is rumoured to be headed to 360, so i don' t see how hard it is to believe that Tecmo (a strong Sony supporter) would have Team Ninja put out Black on Sony' s machine.

Man, I loved Ninja Gaiden until I got stuck on that big Purple she-demon who flieas through the stained glass window. Gave up on it after her.

A new one on 360 will be awesome though! I do hope they can diversify the titles on 360, I love FPS as much as the next man (in case you didn' t see old Master Chief as my pic there), however we' re already getting bogged down with them.

Roll on Viva Pinata!!!!

You have to roll a lot and when she flies towards you do the A+y thing and jump against her and put that sword through her stomach,also sometimes you can use nippo when she is using magic and hit her back.
Even if you break 2 legs from a crab it still runs!
What you gotta do is find its weak spot and do massive damage at it.

Altough, a bit of topic.

But i think that the Crash Bandicoot games got worse and worse just because they switched developers. I' ve played the three first games and i loved them (the four first were developed by Naughtydog) the rest of the games have been made of about two or three other gamedevelopers.

That might be the cause of the series going wrong.

I hear DOA Code Cronus is either an RPG or a game very similar to Ninja Gaiden except focused on Ayane and Kasumi' s life. According to Itagaki its most definetly NOT a fighting game.

Could be an Action RPG.

Yeah and it could be a game similar to Tenchu too with RPG-like stats. I don' t see how a traditional RPG could possibly work.

I know, but that was specifically about NG2. I just thought the possibility of Black on PS3 was interesting, ...it' d certainly make sense wouldn' t it?

actually , team ninja didn' t wanted to go on ps2, because xbox was more powerful

but now with ps3 it will change because ps3 is more owerful ( even itagaki said that

so it' s not impossible for team ninja to develop, some games like ninja gaiden or dead or alive 5

even itagaki said that


Link?



There' s almost zero chance that DoA5 will end up on PS3 as that would mean going head to head directly with Namco and Sega' s Tekken and Virtua Fighter respectively. The best chance the game has of success is on 360 and Team Ninja know that.

Itagaki also said (when asked about NG2) that he would never disappoint his Xbox fans. That virtually rules NG2 out for PS3, Ofcourse, PS3 could theoretically recieve a version of the game as well as 360.

We know that DoAX2 is bound for 360. We know that NG2 will be on 360. We know that DoA5 will be on 360. That leaves 2 of Team Ninja' s announced games left open:

- Project Progressive
- DoA: Coder Chronus

However, as i said, it' s viable that Black could be ported to PS3 as it' d be a really quick and easy way to make a lot of money.

If DoA5 cant compete with the other fighters in an openly growing field
then maybe it doesnt need to be released till the tensions have cooled.

Ta-da!

I knew i' d posted about NGB on PS3 before!

Like i said months ago...


Xbox had an NVIDIA card just as PS3 does, so porting the game would be very easy.


...and take advantage of the additional power RSX has over GeForce 3.

I' d like to see some direct feed screens of the PS3 version. The Xbox version running in 720p looks better than most 360 games, the PS3 version will only look nicer and with new content might very well be worth purchasing again!

I don' t like the idea of a playable Rachel though...[:' (]

I read at kotaku.com that just because its just confirmed for ps3 don' t mean its not coming for xbox360,however i really don' t want a third remake of NG i want my Ng2 to 360,and i hoe Itagki don' t use much of his time doing a remake but instead make Ng2.

I seriously doubt Team Ninja will actually do the port. After DOAX2 i fully expect he' ll move right onto Ninja Gaiden 2, which we know will hit 360 before any other console.

The game might be worth picking up on PS3 though, especially if it has tons of new stuff!

I don' t know whether i want them to develop it or not. I' d rather have Ninja Gaiden 2 quicker. Maybe they' re just overseeing it?!

NG2 will be 360 exclusive. The ps3 game is being used to increase the popularity of the game in the japanese market gain it a bigger fanbase in that territory and when they look for more their only place to look will be Xbox 360.

If ng2 is coming to the ps3 don' t expect its existence to be known or announced till the 360 version has been out like 7 months prior. They are literally setting the 360 up to look better than the ps3 by giving the ps3 a port while building a fanbase for the game its a clever scheme and its going to work.

Yeah, i can see how releasing a game on a machine that costs $600 and then releasing the " true" sequel on another machine and expecting the people who bought a PS3 to suddenly fuck it off and buy a 360 so they can enjoy the " real" game would work...

Are you fucking retarded?!

At the very least this is Tecmo asking Team Ninja to release a " version" of Ninja Gaiden on PS3 to generate money, ...or, it' s Itakgi wanting Japanese gamers to play his games.

At the other end it could be that either Code Chronus or Project Progressive is going to be a PS3 exclusive and Itakgi needs to set the story out. Or the more likely situation is that Ninja Gaiden 2 will be multi-format with timed 360 exclusivity.

...yeah mostly about the money, although Itagaki-san is also a power/graphics whore...

...Team Ninja' s reputation is sky-rocketing all the time, Sony are offering ever larger sums of cash for a ANY TN game, and Itagaki-san is intrigued with what can be done with the PS3 hardware....

...the only way MS could stop Team Ninja' s likely to be increasing involvement with Sony is to buy Tecmo outright (if that' s possible)....

According to Famitsu Itagaki isn' t the producer. They don' t say who is though...

TRAILER for Ninja Gaiden Sigma, on the PS3.

Looks like they redesigned NG from the ground up to display the power of the PS3.

Damn, Team Ninja has the BEST trailers!!
