@@Maryluvs2 are you talking about this art style? This is in line to what the original NES games are. Hopefully it does well so we can get more Ninja Gaiden in general.
@@TheSubZero187 right and hopefully no Sigma version at all. They're never as good as the originals. Only game that improved on its OG version was Razor's Edge and that's cause it was necessary.
@@nicolasgreppi1104 That one according to the dev was actually inspired by Shadow of The Ninja, who also got his own remake in august, a good time for Ninja plateformer it seems.
My dad LOVES the Ninja Gaiden series, i've watched him play all of them on the NES, and watched him play the first 3D entry before playing it myself when I got older! SUPER excited to see this coming back
The first game I played in my life in 1993 was Ninja Gaiden in the arcade the one where you get the spinning circular blade. Since then, I've been hooked.
Don't get too excited The talent That originally created the three For the nintendo and the 2 four x box is gone And any game that has followed after two on x box has been garbage So with that being said I have very little expectations for this game Because the truth is they can't make another three d game They've already proved that So now they get to ruin the 2.D as well
@@jamescaulfield6632 bro, the study behind its literally one of the best in the pixel art, they made blaphemous II. Is obvious that you dont know tf you are talking about
@TAbler0 Yeah, I saw that doesn't matter.Still team ninja Or did you not see that And just because they made two mediocre games doesn't mean that this is going to be all that They will probably miss the mark because they forgot.What made the first three so special And yes I clearly know what i'm talking about
Look, i don't give a Flying Sparrow fart if this isn't 3d. 1. It's Ninja Gaiden 2. The team that made Blasphemous is developing this. I'm fucking funding this!!
They can't. The talent that made NG2 left the studio right when NG2 released, which is why Sigma 2 is such a mess. And the devs seem to have a grudge against Itagaki, so NG Black and NG2 will not ever see a rerelease. Any rerelease will feature the inferior Sigma versions. And Sigma 2 was as good as it was because the original NG2 was superb, but they didn't have that with NG3 and that game was a complete disaster. Even the Razor's Edge version is still meh at best. Current Team Ninja does not have the talent to create a proper 3D Ninja Gaiden game.
@@thenonexistingheroI’m still convinced that their pitiful “we lost the source code” statement was a thinly veiled excuse to avoid putting in the Itagaki versions in the “Master Collection.”
They did.They made two after that they were just garbage Because the creator of the n g series left right after two And the two games that followed were garbage So with that being said, I have very little expectations for. This game
Despite it not being a 3D entry like I was hoping for, I'll give it a chance! Looks pretty fun actually, and it could be a sign for another main entry Ninja Gaiden game!
What’s crazy is from playing prince of Persia metroidvania I told myself it would be cool if we got that something similar for ninja gaiden, and now look at this
@ I know I played one of them in the early 90s. Those aren’t Metroidvania tho, and now that I’ve watched the trailer more this isn’t either, but still can’t wait to play it
Kinda hurts that this isn't a 3d Ninja Gaiden game. I have nothing against the 2d games i'm just not a 2d NG guy i grew up with the 3d games and been hoping for another good one for almost 15yrs.
This is good news. Really love the Ninja gaiden series. Have been a fan since the early 2000s. I could remember my accomplishment of beating the first boss when I was only 13 years old. Long-term fan. I never played the 2D side scroller NES titles, but the new Ninja Gaiden seems it can deliver. Will be picking this up for sure.
Definitely cool to see the series have a new 2D platformer title since I loved the NES Trilogy! I do hope for another entry in the hack-n-slash titles, but this is also pretty awesome!
You know I was just thinking that we needed another old school style Shinobi game and here it is Ninja gaiden did it. I played the old Ninja gaiden back in the day on Nintendo. Although to be fair Shinobi had them beat at the ninja stuff in my opinion. Granted Shinobi was also on the Genesis instead of the nes. But this game is giving me Shinobi/Strider and of course old school Ninja guiding vibes. But based strictly on their old school platform styles this one is closer to how Shinobi was. However I need more games like this.
I’m only 27, so I haven’t been playing the original NES games for as long as some of you old people out there, but I’ve grown up on ALL of the Ninja Gainden games, so I am PUMPED for this game!
I love this! It reminds me of the NES Ninja Gaiden games, which were my favorites! The first Ninja Gaiden game was so hard haha I love it. The new game is a day one purchase for me. I hope we get more Ninja Gaiden games like this.
I’ve only played 2 ninja gaiden games, Ninja Gaiden 3 for NES and then the one on the Original Xbox. though I’m not a diehard series fan I’ve really enjoyed both and am SO SO excited for this
This is more for the OG's who played the classic 2D Ninja Gaiden back in the 90's. I was hoping we could've got a new 3D Ninja Gaiden like NG Black or NG 2. This still looks good though, I'll probably check it out.
So you’re telling me that while the Game Kitchen was cooking up the DLC for Blasphemous 2, they were secretly making a new Ninja Gaiden game?!? These devs only know how to cook, nothing less. Will be buying.
Damn out of all the games shown at the awards, this one got me to comment. I really thought this was a 3D NG, they got me. Oh well, I love 2D games anyway, and this is how NG used to be before going 3D on NES. So I'll still get it, but such a shame it's not a new 3D one.
I figured out it at the first cinematic's scene, when the ninjas clash the swords in the air, watching it live. I knew that moment Ninja Gaiden was back. OMG i'm sooo hyped!!!!! I've played all the 3 NES games as a kid Epic return!
If you played the Blasphemous games, it aapears like it’s taking great inspiration from it but with a Ninja Gaiden motif. And yes I know it’s in collaboration with the Blasphemous developers. That’s super cool. It was just super surreal seeing this as I had been playing Blasphemous recently on Steam Deck. The art style is almost 1:1. And that’s a great thing. Can’t wait for this banger!
Ive never been more excited for a game than this. Ive been waiting since the 90s for a new 2D side scrolling Ninja Gaiden. Now if they'd just make an OG trilogy collection for Switch.
It’s THE POSE! yup, this is for me. I remember that the creators said at some point that they would like another Ninja Gaudencia game but preferred that other developer took the mantle
2025 is definitely year of the Ninja! First Sega's new Shinobi and now Ninja Gaiden! Currently playing The Messenger! Anybody remember playing Ninja Crusaders on the Nes?
F YEAH!!! Love it. Sick of the super long, cutscene, do this, go here huge games I don't have time for. It's all about the gameplay, get right to it! Looks amazing.
I grew up playing ninja gaiden I II and III My last console was nintendo 64...I'm almost 48 is amazing to see ninja gaiden again. After almost 3 decades I'm gonna get a PS5 ...it's so F... Unreal !!
Definitely buying to show support and to play. Hopefully they see enough interest to make a new 3D entry. Making a reboot would open up a lot of possibilities too.
Ninja Gaiden??!!! Yes please 🙏🏽 and I’ll accept more Ninja Gaiden like the original Xbox ones that was made too please and thank you lol. My prayers are slowly being answered after all this time. Before there was “Souls” like games there was Ninja Gaiden
I remember being a kid playing this on NES. I loaned the game to my neighbor and never got it back. That was my first experience getting bullied. I was too scared to tell my parents I lost the game. I never forgot about it and now I have tracked down the guy who stole my game he is an older man now. I will show mercy
Every money I give to Koei Tecmo is specifically directed so that they get the message. Need more Ninja Gaiden, need more DOA, need Kasumi, Momiji and Ayane with all the fanservice available. The game looks fun btw.

I hope the difficulty of this game will bring me to tears like the OG NES Ninja Gaiden.
That sword wipe in the field is an exact remake of the NES intro
For what I see. Hayate is the main character in this story. And was training with Ryu Hayabusa.
Just noticed that the BGM is a medley of the OST of the original NES game. They need to release a full version.
I believe that's the kid all grown up from Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2.

It has been so many time but we finally are able to get that classic style of Ninja Gaiden franchise in new consoles, this games looks really neat!
The best trailer of the show. The only that showed the game instead of just some silly movie.
*Wonder if any past villains will be mentioned* 🤔
Definitely cool to see the series have a new 2D platformer title since I loved the NES Trilogy!
I do hope for another entry in the hack-n-slash titles, but this is also pretty awesome!
Not quite what I expected but good enough.....I still want Ninja Gaiden 4
The music at 0:57 just makes this game's trailer even better. It's great to see that Ninja Gaiden is back. 😎🔥
Yeah but i wanted a proper 3d one not 2d 😅
OG NES trilogy player here, I hope there is still a brutally hard difficulty option. Hope I don't regret those words.
Whoa, I'm hyped for this. I finished the first trilogy back then. Still remember the background music. 😍

A Real Ninja Gaiden 4 in the Tradition of the 2004 Game or the first two Sigmas would be a blast
Ninja Gaiden has gone back to their roots.They went back to the original style on the NES gameplay
In a night stuffed with realistic graphics and path tracing, seeing some old school stuff was a much needed respite.
Finally a new ninja gaiden game
Love how, in one instance, his mask is on, but then after the explosion his mask is off
Not what I expected from this series returning, but I still love games like this, too.
I WILL TAKE THIS OVER NO NINJA GAIDEN GAMES!!!

As someone who's just on his 2nd playthrough of Blasphemous (I've chosem my penitence), what I would say to this game is:
YES.
I figured out it at the first cinematic's scene, when the ninjas clash the swords in the air, watching it live. I knew that moment Ninja Gaiden was back.
OMG i'm sooo hyped!!!!!
I've played all the 3 NES games as a kid
Epic return!
It's been a long time since we have a new Ninja Gaiden game. I'm looking forward to playing it next year.
Somebody tell Mike Matei! His Ninja Gaiden videos are top tier!
Man I’m so glad to see a new ninja gaiden game and especially as 2d side scroller like the nes ones since I enjoyed those a lot more
I knew it, ever since I saw the ending of Ninja Gaiden DS, that one kid would grow up and become the new Ryu. Cool
damn, i was hoping ninja gaiden would return as 3d action, but this is it going way back to its roots. Day 1 buy as long its reasonably priced.

as the master collection, i'll buy this game day 1, anything for a ninja gaiden 4
I never played 2d ninja gaiden but I did love the shinobi games on genesis growing up and this gives me that vibe rn
for a moment, I thought they're finally tying Ninja Gaiden to Strider
