For those who don't know, The Game Kitchen is a studio based in Spain. I'm a Spaniard myself, and I can tell you we are over the moon over here. The Ninja Gaiden series, while not exactly mainstream, is nevertheless quite popular among Spanish harcore gamers who grew up in the 90s and 2000s. This is also a clear sign that our industry is growing, since we already have three studios that are quite famous, or at least well-known worldwide: Mercurysteam, The Game Kitchen and Nomada Studio (creators of "Gris" and "Neva"). It's quite an exciting time for us.
As an indie dev myself, I would love to make a follow up to Ice Climber. I think a vertically focused 2D platformer where each climber has slightly different abilities could be really, really cool.
This is how I feel about a sequel to Zelda II. I honestly think that game has incredible foundations. It was was just too soon for the series to experiment that hard, and also they couldn't help but lay that crusty nes design on THICK
This was an amazing start to the show. I'm always talking about wanting new entries in older series like this in their classic styles, I'm particularly a huge fan of Ninja Gaiden. I'm just super excited to see a new 2d entry after so long
@@shigerumiyamoto9612My thoughts are they weren't ready to touch the series before Sakurai retired from Smash. Now, although it's technically too late for Smash Ultimate, perhaps when whatever Nintendo does for Switch 2, the series may show up again.
I think it’s important to remember that being an indie studio that has to work with publisher (even more so an IP holder) is a BIG risk for the studio. If something goes wrong in the development process, the publisher will live but the indie studio might disappear. I think this is partly why it’s so rare. There’s too much risk for the indie studio
The birds knew he was talking about Ninja Gaiden. They know what's coming for them... But yes- Dotemu bringing about a bunch of retro-revivals has been a highlight of these last few years. Not all of them hit, but I'm just happy they've brought this out as an option so game publishers look at them and go "hang on, what if WE...", and that does my nostalgic heart good.
You mentioned you don't like the anime style cutscenes... However, this is much more faithful to the NES Ninja Gaiden gemes, because they had cutscenes in a very similar style. I love the old NES games and haven't played anything beyond the 3rd game. This new one looks amazing!
Forgot this game was announced at TGA, it looks SOOO good. I haven't played the Ninja Gaiden games myself, but this VERY much gives the vibe of old Castlevania games (Rondo of Blood, SOTN, etc.), which I love. Also loved the animated segments of the trailer, looks a lot like the Castlevania show, which again I'm a huge fan of. Definitely a game I want to get when it releases, visually very cool and just looks fun to play.
First, you get The Messenger which was inspired by the original Ninja Gaiden series and the two leads loved it. Then we get an actual Ninja Gaiden Metroidvania in the 2D series. It feels like coming around full circle.
@@agreedboarart3188 I'm assuming because the Boss Room they showed has doors on both ends, which usually only happens with Metroidvanias. And the developer's other games, Blasphemous, are metroidvanias themselves.
I think the only thing more satisfying is that publisher going back to that IP and deciding to develop it themselves in house You guys I’m SO READY FOR THE OKAMI SEQUEL
I just had the greatest mental image of blue monster Arlo opening the door to his backyard to yell at the birds in his non-aggressive Arlo voice, asking them to be quiet, and then walking his blue self back over to the mic to keep recording 😂
Exactly why I'm excited for Sega's thing they revealed at last year's TGA where they're working with studios to make new entries in JSR, Golden Axe, Shinobi, etc. The Shinobi one especially for me, since I loved what Lizardcube did with The Dragon's Trap.
What a great and insightful video to make, especially considering the fact that Arlo's never even played a Ninja Gaiden game! Usually we just talk about the games we love (or hate), rarely does someone go up and beyond that. I don't like the way Arlo pronounces Gaiden though, it's just off. Minor gripe tho. :D
This is exactly what I wanted Nintendo to do with the studio that made the Fast indie series. I got hopeful once Fast RMX came to the Switch. But it seems all we got instead was F-zero 99 and legacy titles online.
this was one of my most anticipated of the entire showcase! the entire trailer looks absolutely wonderful. The gameplay looks smooth and fast and the entire thing will just be a great experience i think! Ninja Gaiden is so back.
This absolutely needs to happen more often in the industry. Imagine long-lost Nintendo series getting new games from smaller studios. F-Zero, Star Fox, Kid Icarus, Rhythm Heaven...
Blasphemous 1 is my first nephew's favorite game of all time and my personal favorite metroidvanias so I'm excited to see what The Game Kitchen is cooking up with Ninja Gaiden (pun intended). Also Blasphemous 2 is good especially after the recent updates and dlc making the map more interconnected akin for the first game.
I'm a HUGE fan of these 'neo-retro' rebirth titles... Dotemu has been one of the leaders of the pack in this genre overall. SoR4, TMNT: Shredder's Revenge and now Ninja Gaiden? Sold. Already sold day one for me. I've also enjoyed Sonic Mania and Double Dragon: Rise of the Dragons as well when it comes to the old franchises coming back. But in general this renewal of 2D Pixel art games like Blasphemous, Dead Cells and Vengeful Guardian: Moonrider (Which got WAY WAY TOO LITTLE EXPOSURE BTW) have been a real gift. I'm glad we've reached a point where we realize that just because 3D can be done, doesn't mean we need to discard or discredit good 2D pixel art games. They're beautiful and today's hardware allows for so much more than we got in the 16 bit era. I'm fed up with triple A gaming right now and these are the games that are filling the void. However few and far between they may be. They're like comfort food for my 90's child soul lol.
Yes, even if companies don't reboot a series to make a new game, AT THE VERY LEAST they really should be selling or licensing it out to devs that will. No more locking shit in a vault just so that it can potentially end up on a pachinko machine 10 years down the line.
I love when developers bring back old games. Be it remake or remaster it gives them time to develop the new games while having most of the ground work for a game people already like done years ago. It also brings in old and new fans whike Teeing up the next game series
thank you for introducing me to blasphemous arlo. was absolutely geekin at this game when I saw it and had a feeling it would pop up on this channel. you might enjoy the messenger if you haven’t yet!
he isnt stressing it. youre just so used to the typical stress patterns of english ("gaiden" is often pronounced with trochee) that it sounds "too strong" when its said with more even stressing
I saw the captions and the preview for the first 10 seconds, and it seems that youtube assumes that those two english words in the same sentence must only be referring to the IP 💀 lmao
You should just open the window and let the bird song continue I wouldn't mind hearing a little bird song with Arlo that's perfectly okay. Especially on topic Arlo
I think this and "The Rogue Prince of Persia" are the only games I can think of that are really fully their own game, though there are also things like Cadence of Hyrule and Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania which are more like crossovers.
Dotemu is currently my favorite publisher because of their work on older IPs getting a great new game. Windjammers 2, Metal Slug Tactics, Streets of Rage 4, and TMNT: Shredders revenge are all fantastic and that makes me pumped for this one.
F-Zero on switch 2 surely... I can't believe to this day fast rmx was a launch Titel on switch, and sold well. Yet Nintendo doesn't do anything with that studio for example. At least Mercury steam and Metroid got a shot... Wish they'd do more indie with old ips like wario land, etc.
I'd say that HoMM Olden Era is an example of this. The deva are big Heroes III fans and the game really looks promising. Ubisoft isn't doing anything with the IP so I'm hopeful for this prequel.
if you pronounce it like you do "garden" but with "guy" instead of "gar", youre saying it how i imagine most people say it (trochee, first syllable stressed and the second unstressed/shortened). arlo is saying it with a more even stress pattern, which could be seen as being more similar to japanese, but at the end of the day we are speaking english and theres no need to strive to match foreign pronunciation. you can say it however you want, it'll still mean the same thing lol
I think the best part of Game Kitchen getting Ninja Gaiden is just how ideal of a fit it is. Anyone who has played both Blasphemous and Ninja Gaiden knows that the combat feel is so important to both, and I think they'll do so well implementing it. I want more perfect match IP + indie studio games, Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap was truly so fantastic and would never have been half as good of a remake without Lizardcube's animation talents.
I've been thinking of F-Zero lately, and with that in mind. What if Shin'en Multimedia, the makers of Fast RMX, developed a new F-Zero game? They sure have the technical skills to pull it off! Of course that idea isn't new and it's kind of obvious. But I still think Nintendo should let them have a go at it. And since Nintendo themselves can't figure out what to do with the IP anyways. It would look amazing on the new Switch 2!
I bring this up everytime this kind of thing is mentioned, but the indie studio that made Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons should absolutely be the ones to finally make a 3D Ice Climbers game.
@ like imagine a game designed for switch starring the ice climbers, where you use the Brothers control style of each joycon controlling one of the 2 climbers, and to play co-op you just give both players a single joy-con. It’s literally a perfect match for Ice climbers on Switch
You know what would be a perfect Indie x Triple A collab? Konami should really get the Bloodstained devs to make a new Castlevania game, i feel a lot of people would pay good money for it Edit: wait for it...
Several of the Bloodstained devs were literally former Castlevania guys (a producer, a programmer or two, and a music guy, maybe more) who left Konami to do their own thing because they didn't like the direction the company was going 👍 ...Or, tl;dr: That collab would be as ironic as it is unlikely 😅
6 seconds in and he's said Among Us twice, with the first time being the first two words he said in the video, absolutely beautiful.
The subtitles capitalized it both times "Among Us enjoyers" and "Among Us players"

I was thinking they could make a Mario + Luigi but with the Ice Climbers.
@BlakeKase that would also go hard
During my art college days, I came up with a similar concept, but it's a vertical 2.5D co-op platformer. Like a mix of Kirby and It Takes Two.

the first door, if you will
I loved that game. Wish they made more lovecraftian story games
