As a dmc fan, seeing dante return after 10 years was one of the best feelings I ever felt. I hope you guys get the same feeling when Ryu makes his triumphant return :)
Ninja Gaiden Black pisses on anything being released today. If there's one kind of guy I admire, it's a man of few words. The silent rage of Ryu Hayabusa was just a joy. This was a vast, hardcore, flawlessly executed 3rd person slasher that has no equal. Silky smooth combat mechanics that make games like The Last of Us look like they're moving in slow motion. Enough with these overrated, plodding, pretentious vanity projects, and give us the original super-ninja back. Ninja Gaiden 4. Make it happen!
Jan Tran Your all good up until Ninja gaiden 3 don't ever bring up that horrendous game story was garbage characters besides Ryu ofc is trash yawn. It's only hard cause they block 24/7 and bring out sooooo many enemies each fight. Combat/action was pretty Garbo too. They just did t put any effort into the story tbh w you.
I would say: Roaming etc from ninja gaiden black/sigma Weapon variety from ninja gaiden 2 (including chargeable projectiles and the ability to wield two projectiles at the same time just like sigma 2 and onward) As for ninja gaiden 3:re the only aspect I actually liked was the utility of karma points. With these karma points you are able to upgrade Ryu in a rpg/skilltree-like manner. That way the karma score has an actual use. Furthermore I would like to see an expansion on the skill tree (flying swallow, counter attack etc). Also some of the combos in re were actually quite flashy so I would like a mix between the ng 2 and 3:re combos. Oh and let essence co-exist with karma for our ETs and UTs. The yellow essence for currency and blue for health. I'd skip the red one for ninpo since I like the whole ninpo gauge thing which it charges as you battle, this also prevents spamming of ninpo. This same gauge can also be used for the skills which require ki such as the cicada surge (teleport behind enemy). In that way players get rewarded for their skills. Also bring back muramasa for his shop and blacksmith. At last the story. Since it was never a strong point and since the ninja gaiden 3 fucked it al up I would like a fresh start. In the intro of ninja gaiden we hear about the history of the dragon sword and the dark dragon blade. I would find it very interesting if we were able to play the story of an ancient dragon ninja, an ancestor of ryu like Jin Hayabusa from Nioh. There is actually so much story to yell about this. The origins of the fiends and the rivalry between the hayabusa clan and the blackspider clan among others.
* Secrets & Exploration * Platforming & Puzzles * Gore & Hardcore difficulty These are KEY elements for Ninja Gaiden. Exploration and the fast paced action was what made that game so good.
If they do make an hd collection, I hope they include the original ninja gaiden 2, not the sigma version. Sigma 1 is alright, but sigma 2 ruined most of what made 2 great: cut number of enemies on screen to a bare minimum in a game, where most weapons are designed to deal with big crowds.
Ninja Gaiden Black and NG2 (xbox version) are still one of my favorite games of all time and I've bin gaming almost daily for around 25 years. So what I would really want in a NG4 game would be: 1. The dismemberment mechanics they used in NG2 (xbox360 version); 2. The story and world exploration feeling of NG Black; 3. Guess a very brief version of Nioh's RPG elements based on gear, perks and gadgets wouldn't hurt, if it doesn't effect the quality of the points above.
Why Ninja Gaiden was so good was the interconnectivity of the world like Dark Souls 1. Include that with a more RPG-like character progression as well as an even deeper combat system of Black, then you could have a masterpiece.
sheloveztokyo _ It was definitely badass, but I only had the chance to play Sigma 2, since I had a PS3 *FeelsBadMan* but I loved the dismemberment and the absurdly (in a very good way) flashy attacks and powerful enemies, and that most weapons came with the Izuna Drop
What we want to see in Ninja Gaiden 4? I will be happy to see even the logo flash on my screen LOL. We need NG 4 desperately since the trilogy is available on Xbox one
When I was growing up my father was into gaming a little bit and had, and still have the original Ninja Gaiden 1 along with the original Xbox it was released on. As I grew up I found this game in the collection he has, which he doesn’t play games anymore. I asked him about it and he said I would like it so I go to the original Xbox put in the game and start playing it, I loved it. I still remember the absolute hell of a difficulty like you said it was and how hard the game was. I remember me still getting pissed off at the Alma boss and finally defeating her was so satisfying. I loved the game and picked up Ninja Gaiden 2 (On release day, last one they had left in the store) loved it and picked up 3(on release day and got the special edition book with it), loved it but not as much as 1, still fun non the less. Even to this day my father rarely plays games anymore, but Ninja Gaiden is a game he and I love. After finishing 3 I remember my father going “WHOOO, TIME FOR 4!” To this day we wait until we see Team Ninja release that sweet number 4
I used to love playing the old Ninja Gaiden games 1,2, and 3 on NES. Out of the new Ninja Gaiden games, I only got to play Black. But I thought it was a good game, though I still prefer this side scrolling original version more. I was hoping they would make another Ninja Gaiden side scroller game, but similar to Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night style, and sort of bring back the old music from the NES versions and keep the hard difficulty from the original games with the fast pace, run and jump, climb and all the obstacles and just add a little more to the mechanics.
I can imagine how it would look like too. I think they should also add more moves to his list from the original 3. Like give him a grappling hook mechanic like the one in Bionic COmmando, a charge slash idea from Zangetsu in Bloodstained: Curse of the moon, maybe even give him an izuna drop grab cancel and double jump, dive kick and a short quick dash.
As a huge Ninja Gaiden fan this was a good video man, I hope we talk more about games, intricacies and other wacky non-sense about our favorite criteria in the future. You got a sub and follow on Twitter from me.
Hey man thank you so much! I only hope in time this video can find more people with similar interests as us; perhaps after we see news on a new gaiden game.
I hope they do something for Ninja Gaiden's 30th anniversary, because dear lord, we could use it. I mean, I'm glad Nioh 2's happening, and loved the first Nioh, but there's a reason I'm revisiting this video.
Damn man! The exploration was great! That's one of the things that 2 and 3 lacked. I still remember replaying Ninja Gaiden 1 after 10 years and re-experiencing the amazing chapters with their unique soundtracks. Having to get better at combos, obtaining and leveling up weapons and defeating crazy enemies was perfect! Sad thing is companies today will probably not create games as close to this masterpiece. I do hope we get a Ninja Gaiden 4 soon.
Personally, I like Ninja Gaiden 2. Mainly because of all the different ninja weapons you could use. The dual katanas, the kusarigama, the tonfas, and the advanced version of the lunar staff which included ball+chain flails on each end. Dabbling with every last one of those makes it worth the replay value for sure.
Ninja Gaiden 1 and Dead Space 1 are my all time favorites. If i have to pick one i would choose Ninja Gaiden. I can still remember the 2-3 weeks of Ninja Gaiden about 15 years ago. Work, closing time, Ninja Gaiden, liters of green tea, epic fights until late at night, frustration, joy, love, hate and finally the great triumph after the long journey. Damn I loved that game.
Cool to hear. DS 1 and 2 were so great but 3 was urghhh... I almost trashed my PS3 while I was ejecting that piece of garbage. I sold it after 1 hour in total agony :) ps: I really drank that much green tea while playing NG 1 ;)
It's really sad that there's no Ninja Gaiden 4. I liked Nioh very much, but after I play Nioh every time, I just can't resist the urge and go and start my PS3 and first Ninja Gaiden Sigma. Dispite those games being different, you really feel that Ninja Gaiden spirit in Nioh. And after the last DLC with the fight with ancestor of Ryu, I just shout "I FOOKING WANT NINJA GAIDEN 4!!!!!!". It was so good. I know I'm gonna have a lot of hate, but Ninja Gaiden 3, Razor's Edge particularly, had some good ideas. A little more concentration on script events, just to make a little veriety between fights. Steel on Bone mechanic was really satisfying, when enemies muscles and bones shattered with thick sound it was great. And even approach to the story was not that bad, it's just that the story was not that good itself. And overall Razor's Edge had some good ideas, but the balance was lost completley because of the original NG3. It was either too easy, or too hard because of imbalanced enemies. Few days ago, I just replayed all 3 games on my PS3, and I still think that there's no better slasher. It's gory, violent, hard and very satisfying when you finally enter the flow of the game. And I really hope, that on that E3, we finally get new Ninja Gaiden game. P.S. Exploration in first game was interesting, but sometimes you might completely lost, even with the map. A little more friendly interface, objective or at least some marker on the map would be better. Not the big idiot arrow that told you what to do and where to go, just some reminder to what you need to do at the moment. At one point I had to drop the game for about a week, because of certain circumstances, and when I got back to the game, I spent about 20 minutes to remember where the hell am I and what I need to do. It's not even the difficulty, it's just a little game design flaw, that can be irritating.
Zloy_dedulya Of course ninja gaiden is the best slasher, its even better than God of War. I think the 1st games were excelent. I love the second one but i choose the 1st one over the second one. 3 was good too
NO! NO! AND AGAIN NO!!! We already had multiplayer in NG3 and it was terrible. And even coop missions in NGS2 was not that good because of the connection. So NO! We DON'T need multiplayer. And by the way fuck multiplayer at all. We already have Fallout 76 that is probably gonna be Fallout 4 without story and just village simulator.
Thank you so much for doing this video and speaking for all the Ninja Gaiden fans out there. It was very well done and much appreciated. I hope that Ninja Gaiden 4 is in development now with an announcement to be made soon. I was disappointed to not hear anything about it at E3. Maybe at Tokyo Game Show. We need the return of the Ninja Dragon.
I put this game in a pedestal along with DMC3SE as some of the best games ever and rightfully the KINGS of the genre for sure (some Platinum Games come close, but no dice). I wish for Team Ninja do develop a Ninja Gaiden 4, the moment is almost perfect... we have Bayonetta 3 and Devil May Cry V coming in and that's going to bring new players to the genre as well as bring old ones (like us) back in the game. There's at least 3 or 4 Japanese-setting-games right now with Sekiro, Ghost of Tsushima and (ironically) Nioh 2 right now. I want Team Ninja to develop Ninja Gaiden 4, but it seems unlikely without Itagaki and the fact the team is already busy making Nioh MORE Souls-ish... Hopefully we DO get a Ninja Gaiden 4.
Im a pro ninja gaiden player and I personally think they shouldnt go the yaiba direction. In NG4 they should bring new enemies, a few enemies from nioh, new weapons, hayate as a playable character, new ninpos, better story(sort of like ninja gaiden black), steel on bone, better ultimate techniques, and a main boss like the return of the jaquio .
NG2 was kind of a remake of the first NES game. I think they should remaster it to lean into that further. Make sure the beats from the original happen. Make Irene actually the same character as before instead of just saying the Sonia is Irene. Replace Sonia with Irene. And then continue with remaking III and then II.
Ninjà gaiden 4 World war 3 with more alien enemies
6 ปีที่แล้ว +1
I think bringing the old ones to current consoles would be the first step. Seeing Nioh did well and the second one is on the way Team Ninja should take advantange of the moment.
Man it needs to happen now people are more into difficult games nowadays, its needs to come out and do elements of ng 1 and 2 and just improve improve improve, hell id take a remake of ng 2 right now..
I loved all the games, even 3 and/or Razor's Edge. I don't see why everyone hated it. It was still flashy and hard as hell like the other games. And overflowing with gruesome, bloody finishers we all loved.
Sai Blade ryu was portrayed in a really whitewashed western way. Im the hero and i do whatever to save damsel in distress/children. Its not his natural demeanor. Ryu is a quiet independent ninja who protects his village / dark dragon blade from threats of fiends. Thats it
I played NGB for many years, went through Master Ninja Mode many times. And still, I do not know all moves. Still, I could learn more about the incredibly deep combat system. And still, the 1st chapter on Master Ninja Mode is a challenge for me. There is so much to learn and know about this game, unbelievable.
I love playing the first one all the time I rather play that then some of my games I got for xbox one Ninja Gaiden is one of the greatest if not the best game of the xbox era
The SeemlyTv I am hopeful it catches on as news of the next game surfaces. If you enjoyed through please let your friends know about the channel, and have a great day!
thanks and you have a great day aswell and none if my friends like this game beacuase they cant beat it even on ninja dog.i cant beat it on master ninja i can only beat it on hard and normal but thats the fun this cause when you play on master ninja its like a whole new game and it forces you to get better and play more that which i like with Ninja Gaiden Black. it just such a perfect game
The SeemlyTv I have the same situation exact. My friends are lousy at it so they can't get into the game. Congrats on hard and goodluck on your future master playthrough
I agree with you wholeheartedly. I love Ninja Gaiden, and to be honest I loved both 2 and 3 as well for personal reasons. If they used the mechanics from Ninja Gaiden 3 such as the air gliding, kunai wall climbing, and other in-depth means of traversing, and the mass exploration like the first Ninja Gaiden, I think that would make Ninja Gaiden 4 amazing again. That open exploration of the first one was just too good. With the recent announcement of Dead or Alive 6, I think this can pave the way for a Ninja Gaiden 4.
Loved the video and you nailed it about spending more time with this game instead of most of today's titles. I've spent close to 100 real hours in this game and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. The game just keeps pushing me to master it.
Ph0en1x_07 I agree. There's a quality about it that makes you want to improve to beat the next difficulty. Dark souls Ng+ could only dream of being so addictive
This is what I have been saying for years. Ninja Gaiden black is such a good game and why try to fix something that isn't broken? The soundtrack is amazing the combat is fun and the world and story is beautiful. So what happened why did they stop caring when you put passion in anything it can become something legendary. I just hope I can see another Ninja Gaiden game as good as the one from my childhood.
The original director left with a good chunk of the team. The new guy Hayashi has a different take and in my opinion is no where near as talented as even the DOA series as fallen. Best thing you'll see from the new team Ninja is Nioh.
Got you with all this new Souls like games trending it would have been a good time to get a current gen NG but without Itagaki it wouldn't hold up. Hayashi's games are just not memorable. I haven't even been interested in the DOA games since as they have become more like dating sims. I hope Xbox reaches out to him for an exclusive maybe even buy the team as they are just 12 in number.
They should make true follow-up to Ninja Gaiden III: The Ancient Ship of Doom. If Sega can make Sonic Mania and Capcom can make Mega Man 9/10, why can't Tecmo release new old school Ninja Gaiden game?
Beat ninja gaiden 2 and 3 2012 I agree the games are fair and beatable it took me a while it was a great challengr but at the same time never got boring. This was a very rare game that got it right worth your time to play them I loved them both!!
Great video!! Also whenever they create four use pt 1 story line and exploration added with part 2 obliteration technique. Last but not least combine all ninpo and weapons from ninja gaiden 1 and 2 and we may have a Golden game forever lol!!
I would love to see Tecmo repair the relationship with Itagaki. Making another addition or perhaps a full reboot to the original legacy is bigger than both of their ego’s. But, alas.
Well let's just hope it comes out this year which I believe it will....Team Ninja is announcing multiple games this year so there is a good chance that its coming out this year I mean I don't see why not it be a good time for it to come out for 2021 I mean who knows it might come out during summer of 2021! That be interesting
Replaying Ninja gaiden 2 on the xbox one x atm, and it still hold up! I REALLLY REALLY hope they make a ninja gaiden 4 that has the interconnected hub like city structure and coherency of Ninja gaiden(black) with the weapon and combat variaty of Ninja gaiden 2! And also a more compelling cast than only huge boobed BDSM girls ;)
It's been four years i'm not play this materpiece cuz my ps3 are broke badly. I still hope they make ninja gaiden hd collection or new ninja gaiden, i'll buy both of them if i have to.
In ninja gaiden 4 ,personally I would love Gameplay, puzzle and exploration from ninja gaiden 2 but we have to keep the STEEL ON BONE technique and the list of ABILITIES and POWERS from a list we can choose to unlock based on karma as well as the Ninpo guage from ninja gaiden 3: Razor's edge, I had to state that it was a must lol. Ninja gaiden 3 was good too I liked it but there are a few things that i did not like at all. The exploration in ninja gaiden 3 felt stiff and completely directed I could not go and see anything or go back to get things I might have missed. The first 2 titles gave us dope weapons, amazing techniques and 2 mind blowing ultimates per weapons Ninja Gaiden did not implement that at all we didn't even get armlets. We also had a story mode that wasn't really appealing bsed on the previous titles Ninja Gaiden and Ninja Gaiden 2 was the best although Ninja Gaiden had potential I did not meet expectations from a lot of fans... Developers if you see this one day please consider this passionate feedback from a genuine Ninja Gaiden fan, please and thank you
i love ninja gaiden 2!i'm playing it right now.there are lot of areas in two that should have been accessable.shinobi X ninja gaiden 2?sounds like a new game to me!just @ me.
I wanted to make the exact same video for a while now.. thank you sir, bless!!! TEAM NINJA or whoever.. please give us NINJA GAIDEN 4.. n make sure its better than NINJA GAIDEN BLACK!!!
Great video and you made a lot of points clear. NG2 was awesome, the fact that were new weapons and combos and also improvement on old combos of Black made NG2 a lot of fun along with the OTs. But what makes NGB more fun is the exploration and puzzling, I wish they could make a new city like tairon but a lot bigger with all the paths that connects to it.
The best game ever created
One of em
Micah Thomas Street fighter Third Strike Ninja Gaiden Black the best two games ever created .
Mario Garcia slow down
i agree
DMC > god of war, ninja gaiden
As a dmc fan, seeing dante return after 10 years was one of the best feelings I ever felt. I hope you guys get the same feeling when Ryu makes his triumphant return :)
Ninja Gaiden black remastered I would be happy with that
David Velazquez
Its on tbe x in 4k there good your remaster right there
red crimson102 if only the PS4 had true backwards compatibility...
Actually it doesn't even need a remaster. XBox-classic-graphics of NGB still look amazing for their age.
David Velazquez there already is. It’s Sigma 1 for PS3
Sigma never felt the same to me... no idea why.
Bringing back Itagaki is the only way to ensure a great Ninja Gaiden game.
one hundred percent agree.
Absolutely.
The only one who can save and revive ninja gaiden, Itagaki!!!!
Or someone who actually played the first 2 games
Epic Games Store Sad 😞 What’s he doing now ?
Ninja Gaiden Black pisses on anything being released today.

Enough with these overrated, plodding, pretentious vanity projects, and give us the original super-ninja back.
Ninja Gaiden 4. Make it happen!
Amen!
Sadly nioh killed it
@@MILDMONSTER1234 I own Nioh and in my opinion that game is a absolute classic!!
YES!!! I see you also appreciate the fast paced things. Please NG4
@@MILDMONSTER1234 Nah... We all know we only played Nioh, to hold us over until THE one and only super ninja Ryu Hayabusa returns...
2 and Razors Edge are my favez...Ryu is just too relentless, completely shredding everything in his wake
To make the best ninja gaiden 4:
Ninja gaiden black - rhythm and exploration,rpg
Ninja gaiden 2 - Action pace
Ninja gaiden 3 - characters unlock,Story
Jan Tran sounds good to me Jan

@@AEMNinja98 Only thing I disagree here is that the action is garbage.There is no such thing when it comes to a "Ninja Gaiden" game!
@@AEMNinja98 i liked ninja gaiden 3 razors edge more then sigma 2
I would say:
Roaming etc from ninja gaiden black/sigma
Weapon variety from ninja gaiden 2 (including chargeable projectiles and the ability to wield two projectiles at the same time just like sigma 2 and onward)
As for ninja gaiden 3:re the only aspect I actually liked was the utility of karma points. With these karma points you are able to upgrade Ryu in a rpg/skilltree-like manner.

ninja gaiden 2 was by far my favorite
same here
i still play part 2 sometimes
Yep definitely
Fire Fist Ace Agreed. NJ2 was by far the best!!
Tbh
* Secrets & Exploration
* Platforming & Puzzles
* Gore & Hardcore difficulty
These are KEY elements for Ninja Gaiden.
Exploration and the fast paced action was what made that game so good.
And defence over offence. The defence playstyle of black was so much more fun then 2. It made ryu feel human.
I just want a remaster collection of all 3 games for next gen...i will literally PAY full retail price
It would be worth that for sure
Agreed
Black is already "remastered" for the XBOX 1 in backwards comp. and looks amazing
It is yeah, graphically it can go toe to toe with any games out today.
If they do make an hd collection, I hope they include the original ninja gaiden 2, not the sigma version. Sigma 1 is alright, but sigma 2 ruined most of what made 2 great: cut number of enemies on screen to a bare minimum in a game, where most weapons are designed to deal with big crowds.
Now if ninja gaiden collection sells well we can get a ninja gaiden 4
Man we need ninja gaiden 4 immediately! It's been to long!
Ninja Gaiden Black and NG2 (xbox version) are still one of my favorite games of all time and I've bin gaming almost daily for around 25 years.
So what I would really want in a NG4 game would be:
1. The dismemberment mechanics they used in NG2 (xbox360 version);
2. The story and world exploration feeling of NG Black;
3. Guess a very brief version of Nioh's RPG elements based on gear, perks and gadgets wouldn't hurt, if it doesn't effect the quality of the points above.
now that we have DMC5 confirmed, ninja gaiden 4 for 2020 would be an amazing decision
Keep waitting
...
...
NGB is so amazing even the second one couldn't top it.
Ninja Gaiden Black is easily in my top 5 favorites of all time. All we can do is pray to the gods of gaming that we get a real, true NG game soon.
Why Ninja Gaiden was so good was the interconnectivity of the world like Dark Souls 1. Include that with a more RPG-like character progression as well as an even deeper combat system of Black, then you could have a masterpiece.
Ninja Gaiden black 1 still THE BEST GAME OF ALL TIME

IF NG4 ever comes out I swear to god it better not have micro-transactions

Demon Fox Yoko *insert skeleton meme* I'll just wait
Literally have been my question for decades now
decades? lol it's only been 5 years since 3 and even if you mean NGB that was 1.4 decades XD
I wasnt being literal.
I wanna see limbs chopped off and great lengthy story. And great dialogue
I agree my bat friend
If DMC made a Comeback so can Ninja Gaiden.
I hope they do something for Ninja Gaiden's 30th anniversary, because dear lord, we could use it. I mean, I'm glad Nioh 2's happening, and loved the first Nioh, but there's a reason I'm revisiting this video.
imagine dark souls meets ninja gaiden black
Russell Grant thats what they tried woth nioh but it didnt feel like either game
I will never thow away my copy of ninja gaiden 2 for my xbox 360, thats my childhood right there
Isaac Bernardez Imma have to go play it again
Maxine Rivera i went through the whole game again like last week, its worth it👍 feels good everytime

EnergyLeech agreed my friend! I just went through NG black a few months back and its just as fun today.
Personally, I like Ninja Gaiden 2.
Mainly because of all the different ninja weapons you could use. The dual katanas, the kusarigama, the tonfas, and the advanced version of the lunar staff which included ball+chain flails on each end. Dabbling with every last one of those makes it worth the replay value for sure.
Ninja Gaiden games since 2004 never got the love they deserved
Nobody counts Yaiba?? Shit, nobody counts Ninja Gaiden 3/Razor's Edge. We haven't had a Ninja Gaiden game since 2008.
I would gladly settle for NG2 & NG3 and the upgraded game on Xbox1X enhancement back compat
It’s taking awhile for them to do that. Desperately waiting for 2 and 3 RE
@@deathegg9474 They did
Ninja Gaiden 1 and Dead Space 1 are my all time favorites. If i have to pick one i would choose Ninja Gaiden.
I can still remember the 2-3 weeks of Ninja Gaiden about 15 years ago. Work, closing time, Ninja Gaiden, liters of green tea, epic fights until late at night, frustration, joy, love, hate and finally the great triumph after the long journey. Damn I loved that game.
cognos23 love the green tea reference
Dead space is one of my favorites too.
Love ninja gaiden games but it took me 5years to beat NGB
King Ahaz stay tuned boys, I will probably make a vid on deadspace in the future
Cool to hear. DS 1 and 2 were so great but 3 was urghhh... I almost trashed my PS3 while I was ejecting that piece of garbage. I sold it after 1 hour in total agony :)
ps: I really drank that much green tea while playing NG 1 ;)
cognos23 ninja way of course ;). But ya deadspace 3 was a big letdown
It's really sad that there's no Ninja Gaiden 4. I liked Nioh very much, but after I play Nioh every time, I just can't resist the urge and go and start my PS3 and first Ninja Gaiden Sigma. Dispite those games being different, you really feel that Ninja Gaiden spirit in Nioh. And after the last DLC with the fight with ancestor of Ryu, I just shout "I FOOKING WANT NINJA GAIDEN 4!!!!!!". It was so good. I know I'm gonna have a lot of hate, but Ninja Gaiden 3, Razor's Edge particularly, had some good ideas. A little more concentration on script events, just to make a little veriety between fights. Steel on Bone mechanic was really satisfying, when enemies muscles and bones shattered with thick sound it was great. And even approach to the story was not that bad, it's just that the story was not that good itself. And overall Razor's Edge had some good ideas, but the balance was lost completley because of the original NG3. It was either too easy, or too hard because of imbalanced enemies. Few days ago, I just replayed all 3 games on my PS3, and I still think that there's no better slasher. It's gory, violent, hard and very satisfying when you finally enter the flow of the game. And I really hope, that on that E3, we finally get new Ninja Gaiden game.
P.S. Exploration in first game was interesting, but sometimes you might completely lost, even with the map. A little more friendly interface, objective or at least some marker on the map would be better. Not the big idiot arrow that told you what to do and where to go, just some reminder to what you need to do at the moment. At one point I had to drop the game for about a week, because of certain circumstances, and when I got back to the game, I spent about 20 minutes to remember where the hell am I and what I need to do. It's not even the difficulty, it's just a little game design flaw, that can be irritating.

Of course ninja gaiden is the best slasher, its even better than God of War. I think the 1st games were excelent. I love the second one but i choose the 1st one over the second one. 3 was good too
red crimson102 I'd say that there is only one thing that could've made it better, and that would be online co-op/PvP
NO! NO! AND AGAIN NO!!! We already had multiplayer in NG3 and it was terrible. And even coop missions in NGS2 was not that good because of the connection. So NO! We DON'T need multiplayer. And by the way fuck multiplayer at all. We already have Fallout 76 that is probably gonna be Fallout 4 without story and just village simulator.
Bailey Jewell (Points to Devil's Third multiplayer)
Wow posted 6 years ago and still , we got nothing 😢
Its crazy, demand is there lol
Outstanding video thanks 😎👍
Thank you so much for doing this video and speaking for all the Ninja Gaiden fans out there. It was very well done and much appreciated.
I hope that Ninja Gaiden 4 is in development now with an announcement to be made soon. I was disappointed to not hear anything about it at E3. Maybe at Tokyo Game Show. We need the return of the Ninja Dragon.
BLACKx114 thank you for the comment! I hope to see something at tokyo gameshow as well.
I'm with you - I'd be happy with this level of graphics (or MGS3 level) if it meant that the games would run faster on modern equipment.
Ninja Gaiden 2 the GOAT of NG titles
I think they will continue with Nioh for now. But would be great to have another Ninja Gaiden game.
I actually like Ninja Gaiden 2 alot, but I feel what you're saying. NG1 is and always will be an original classic
I also really enjoyed 2, but I just thought the first game left more of an impact overall. Thanks for watching!
Great Video! Bring Us Ninja Gaiden 4, some if not most of us are ready to be challenged... again!
Delbert White, Jr. Ty sir! We're all ready for it.
Ninja Gaiden 2 is my all time favorite game. I spent 1000's of hours of gameplay.
I wish for more throwbacks to the NES games!
I finished all of them. Great stuff :)
I put this game in a pedestal along with DMC3SE as some of the best games ever and rightfully the KINGS of the genre for sure (some Platinum Games come close, but no dice). I wish for Team Ninja do develop a Ninja Gaiden 4, the moment is almost perfect... we have Bayonetta 3 and Devil May Cry V coming in and that's going to bring new players to the genre as well as bring old ones (like us) back in the game. There's at least 3 or 4 Japanese-setting-games right now with Sekiro, Ghost of Tsushima and (ironically) Nioh 2 right now. I want Team Ninja to develop Ninja Gaiden 4, but it seems unlikely without Itagaki and the fact the team is already busy making Nioh MORE Souls-ish... Hopefully we DO get a Ninja Gaiden 4.
I am sure it will come within the next 2-3 years. Try to be patient friend, in the mean time we can enjoy the 3+ Japanese games you listed lol
Im a pro ninja gaiden player and I personally think they shouldnt go the yaiba direction. In NG4 they should bring new enemies, a few enemies from nioh, new weapons, hayate as a playable character, new ninpos, better story(sort of like ninja gaiden black), steel on bone, better ultimate techniques, and a main boss like the return of the jaquio .
That's pretty cool, hell, why not just remake the original trilogy with today's standards. Jaquio was an awesome villain!
Yes! Jaquio and Ashtar need to return.
NG2 was kind of a remake of the first NES game. I think they should remaster it to lean into that further. Make sure the beats from the original happen. Make Irene actually the same character as before instead of just saying the Sonia is Irene. Replace Sonia with Irene.
And then continue with remaking III and then II.
In my opinion, they should go all out for Ninja Gaiden 4, considering that the series' 30th anniversary is coming, if it's not already here.
Ninjà gaiden 4 World war 3 with more alien enemies
I think bringing the old ones to current consoles would be the first step. Seeing Nioh did well and the second one is on the way Team Ninja should take advantange of the moment.
It's like you read my mind!!! We need this. Get back to basics but also add good new stuff
Man it needs to happen now people are more into difficult games nowadays, its needs to come out and do elements of ng 1 and 2 and just improve improve improve, hell id take a remake of ng 2 right now..
SnazzyPanic
The only way ninja gaiden can be great again is if they call back the guy who did the original
The best part of ninja gaiden where you can create your own combo where your the only one can do.. such a amazing game..
I loved all the games, even 3 and/or Razor's Edge. I don't see why everyone hated it. It was still flashy and hard as hell like the other games. And overflowing with gruesome, bloody finishers we all loved.
Sai Blade I haven't played that one I have to check it out
Sai Blade ryu was portrayed in a really whitewashed western way. Im the hero and i do whatever to save damsel in distress/children. Its not his natural demeanor. Ryu is a quiet independent ninja who protects his village / dark dragon blade from threats of fiends. Thats it
I played NGB for many years, went through Master Ninja Mode many times.
And still, I do not know all moves. Still, I could learn more about the incredibly deep combat system.
And still, the 1st chapter on Master Ninja Mode is a challenge for me.
There is so much to learn and know about this game, unbelievable.
It's been 5 yrs since the last release of a ninja gaiden game at the time of this video not 4. But now it's been 7 yrs.
Does this comment have any meaning?
@@GM_Yorri Since the last release ninja gaiden game I'm talking .
I love playing the first one all the time I rather play that then some of my games I got for xbox one Ninja Gaiden is one of the greatest if not the best game of the xbox era
MK Prime 93 Ninja Gaiden, Castlevania: Curse of Darkness, and Halo 2 were, in my opinion, the best games on Xbox (in order from gold to bronze)
Great video good points aswell im suprised this havent got that much attention yet
The SeemlyTv I am hopeful it catches on as news of the next game surfaces. If you enjoyed through please let your friends know about the channel, and have a great day!
thanks and you have a great day aswell and none if my friends like this game beacuase they cant beat it even on ninja dog.i cant beat it on master ninja i can only beat it on hard and normal but thats the fun this cause when you play on master ninja its like a whole new game and it forces you to get better and play more that which i like with Ninja Gaiden Black. it just such a perfect game
The SeemlyTv I have the same situation exact. My friends are lousy at it so they can't get into the game. Congrats on hard and goodluck on your future master playthrough
thanks
If Dante could make a comeback, so can Ryu.
I agree with you wholeheartedly. I love Ninja Gaiden, and to be honest I loved both 2 and 3 as well for personal reasons. If they used the mechanics from Ninja Gaiden 3 such as the air gliding, kunai wall climbing, and other in-depth means of traversing, and the mass exploration like the first Ninja Gaiden, I think that would make Ninja Gaiden 4 amazing again. That open exploration of the first one was just too good. With the recent announcement of Dead or Alive 6, I think this can pave the way for a Ninja Gaiden 4.
xShadow Dragonx Hey thankd for checking oit the video! With DOA 6 on the horizen it spells high hopes for ninja gaiden. Not to mention DOA looks sick
Especially how Ryu looks like in Do6! Hope he looks like that or better in Ng4 and beyond. I hope they never stop making ng!
agreed ryu looks great in DOA 6
I want a faster paced combat In ng4 like how it was in ng3 razors edge
Loved the video and you nailed it about spending more time with this game instead of most of today's titles. I've spent close to 100 real hours in this game and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. The game just keeps pushing me to master it.
Ph0en1x_07 I foresee a master out of you one day
Demon Fox Yoko unlike most games today, NGB keeps having me come back to it and makes me want to master the game. Not many games do that for me.
Ph0en1x_07 I agree. There's a quality about it that makes you want to improve to beat the next difficulty. Dark souls Ng+ could only dream of being so addictive
I think Ninja Gaiden 2 is the best gamer ever made in gaming history.
Have you tried the first one ?
What we want for ninja gaiden 4:
-please dont be like nioh.... we like ninja gaiden for a reason
Drastically want this. Was so upset not to see it announced in e3
This is what I have been saying for years. Ninja Gaiden black is such a good game and why try to fix something that isn't broken? The soundtrack is amazing the combat is fun and the world and story is beautiful. So what happened why did they stop caring when you put passion in anything it can become something legendary. I just hope I can see another Ninja Gaiden game as good as the one from my childhood.
The original director left with a good chunk of the team. The new guy Hayashi has a different take and in my opinion is no where near as talented as even the DOA series as fallen. Best thing you'll see from the new team Ninja is Nioh.
Victor Alistein that's what I am afraid of
Got you with all this new Souls like games trending it would have been a good time to get a current gen NG but without Itagaki it wouldn't hold up. Hayashi's games are just not memorable. I haven't even been interested in the DOA games since as they have become more like dating sims. I hope Xbox reaches out to him for an exclusive maybe even buy the team as they are just 12 in number.
It’s not Team Ninja anymore but rather Team Soulslike! 🤣
At least we can still dream..
For real... but now they will launch a romance game about Dead or Alive 😂😂
Maybe have the gameplay and story of ninja gaiden black and maybe the brutal murders of ninja gaiden 2
Ninja Gaiden Dragan Sword on the Ds were good times...
Pure Nostalgic
Razors Edge on Wii U was dope
I only played it on 360. It was ok, not my favorite, but I did have fun at the time when I played. Did wii u have unique features for it?
They should make true follow-up to Ninja Gaiden III: The Ancient Ship of Doom. If Sega can make Sonic Mania and Capcom can make Mega Man 9/10, why can't Tecmo release new old school Ninja Gaiden game?
Patrick Lange i could see that doing really well in todays market.
In 2016 someone from team ninja said that they would make an HD Collection for the 3 ninja gaiden games for the PS4
really? hope they will release it for PC too
It's coming soon. It will be greater than the previous series.
Beat ninja gaiden 2 and 3 2012 I agree the games are fair and beatable it took me a while it was a great challengr but at the same time never got boring. This was a very rare game that got it right worth your time to play them I loved them both!!
Great video!! Also whenever they create four use pt 1 story line and exploration added with part 2 obliteration technique. Last but not least combine all ninpo and weapons from ninja gaiden 1 and 2 and we may have a Golden game forever lol!!
Thank you!! This vidro was made for fans such as yourself.!
Whoa I forgot alllllll about the cat enemies!!! Damn I really miss this game, boutta revive my 360 and see if I can download Black
I would love to see Tecmo repair the relationship with Itagaki. Making another addition or perhaps a full reboot to the original legacy is bigger than both of their ego’s. But, alas.
I'm still trying to master Ninja gaiden 2
Kusari-gama's my man. Got me through Master Ninja Mode.
I got this game backwards compatible without a disk on my older brothers Xbox 1s
So true! NG Black is one of the best games i ever played! It was just so fucking awsome and well balanced! A masterpice of game art!
Well let's just hope it comes out this year which I believe it will....Team Ninja is announcing multiple games this year so there is a good chance that its coming out this year I mean I don't see why not it be a good time for it to come out for 2021 I mean who knows it might come out during summer of 2021! That be interesting
Replaying Ninja gaiden 2 on the xbox one x atm, and it still hold up!
I REALLLY REALLY hope they make a ninja gaiden 4 that has the interconnected hub like city structure and coherency of Ninja gaiden(black) with the weapon and combat variaty of Ninja gaiden 2!
And also a more compelling cast than only huge boobed BDSM girls ;)
Would you settle for more bdsm girls tho? Lol ty fpr watching
It's been four years i'm not play this materpiece cuz my ps3 are broke badly.
I still hope they make ninja gaiden hd collection or new ninja gaiden, i'll buy both of them if i have to.
I really agree. Maybe there could be even a few RPG elements thrown in the mix.
e3 2018: ninja gaiden 4, i could die happy ahahaha thanks, this video and your feelings are shared
Honoka my man
Ninja Gaiden 3 had a whole host of issues but I felt they were addressed nicely in the Razors Edge version. Still, we need a NG4.
Sam Levin right tho
In ninja gaiden 4 ,personally I would love Gameplay, puzzle and exploration from ninja gaiden 2 but we have to keep the STEEL ON BONE technique and the list of ABILITIES and POWERS from a list we can choose to unlock based on karma as well as the Ninpo guage from ninja gaiden 3: Razor's edge, I had to state that it was a must lol.
Ninja gaiden 3 was good too I liked it but there are a few things that i did not like at all.
The exploration in ninja gaiden 3 felt stiff and completely directed I could not go and see anything or go back to get things I might have missed.
The first 2 titles gave us dope weapons, amazing techniques and 2 mind blowing ultimates per weapons Ninja Gaiden did not implement that at all we didn't even get armlets. We also had a story mode that wasn't really appealing bsed on the previous titles
Ninja Gaiden and Ninja Gaiden 2 was the best although Ninja Gaiden had potential I did not meet expectations from a lot of fans...
Developers if you see this one day please consider this passionate feedback from a genuine Ninja Gaiden fan, please and thank you
Malik Walker glad to have you here malik
Thank you glad to have you here as well sir 😃
Probably too busy with DoA6 and Nioh 2 to concentrate on NG4
Aya ya for this year yes. Its looking like a 2019 announcement if any
Ninja Gaiden is HARD
i love ninja gaiden 2!i'm playing it right now.there are lot of areas in two that should have been accessable.shinobi X ninja gaiden 2?sounds like a new game to me!just @ me.
I want ninja gaiden 4
I wanted to make the exact same video for a while now.. thank you sir, bless!!! TEAM NINJA or whoever.. please give us NINJA GAIDEN 4.. n make sure its better than NINJA GAIDEN BLACK!!!
I need Ninja Gaiden 1,2,3 remastered on ps4 and a Ninja Gaiden 4 New! RYU HAYABUSA IS A BEAST! ⚔
Preach
the people that disliked this video, couldn’t beat the first boss
Ronnie Surely. Thanks for watching
Great video and you made a lot of points clear. NG2 was awesome, the fact that were new weapons and combos and also improvement on old combos of Black made NG2 a lot of fun along with the OTs. But what makes NGB more fun is the exploration and puzzling, I wish they could make a new city like tairon but a lot bigger with all the paths that connects to it.
Lord Fiend thanks for watching. I really hope NG4 has a new hub city to explore and maneuver through
If we do ever see another ninja Gaiden game it’ll be after DOA six
Ninja Gaiden Black is still the best action adventure game ever made!
Thank you for the video I feel the same Ninja clan 🙏
