If it turns true, I guess that will shut  up all those who claim MS bought Tecmo because of a DOA3 comment......

;)

Still, if its 3D I want nothing to do with it. How about a true 2D Ninja Gaiden?

Well, given that they said that its listed in a retailers list (which isn\'t the company directly) it might not be true. Afterall, until the Xbox info was released, Munch Oddysee was probably on all the retail list as a game coming to the PS2, and look what happened to it. Though, when they said Crazy Taxi is coming to the PS2, and it did, it could be true as well, so...

I hope the new Ninja Gaiden has new aspects and is unique and revolutionary to the series. And yet, still keeping old aspects of the game. I remember playing this on my good ol\' Nintendo 8-bit system. It was one of my favorite games...;) They better not screw this one up...

Ninja Gaiden for Sega Genesis had the best ending of all of the 16-bit era.  IMO, of course.

The PS2 better do justice, I have high standards for this game.

So now its going to the PS2...Now if it just goes to GameCube, then they will almost double profit from the game.

My logic comes from a poll of 5,000 people voting on the Tecmo webiste. 60% said GC, 12% said XBox 22% (or 23, can\'t remember) said the PS2. You average of the margin of error in the poll and you get a little under double the profit:)

My sig is because it is summer, and everyone at my school has too much time on their ands, so I made this, I also made a PS2 one somewhere.

LOL.  That poll was meaningless.  It didn\'t save your data to a cookie, so it was possible to vote over, and over, and over just by pressing the button repeatedly.

Now lets look at this logically.  Playstation fans were too busy playing video games and talking about the latest PS2 video games to waste there time pressing on the button repeatedly.  Nintendo fans on the other hand had nothing better to do.

Logical Reason : [/U] Tecmo brings back a old franchise that is highly regarded among gamers. The best idea when doin\' something like this is to develop it for the console with the largest install base. What console would that be? PS2 , folks.

You have some flawed logic going on.

Nintendo fans nothing? They have GBA. \'Nuff said.

Correction:

Temco brings back an old franchise that is highly regarded among hardcore gamers.

The game never had a massive following. It was great, I played the NES one(not the SNES one though) but it was never a big seller. I\'d be surprised if 10% of PS2 owners of heard of it.

I just cannot see Ninja Gaiden not being highly regarded. It is one of my all time favorite games and I thought everyone who owned an NES played the series to death. Sheesh.;)

And don\'t go knockin\' the GBA. I love mine, damnit.
