Ninja Gaiden 2 Black announced/Shadowdropped

[who is ted danson?]

At the core, Sigma 2 rebuild NG2 around Sigma 1. Think it was slower, fewer enemies, easier, no dismemberment.

NG2 is playable on Xbox at higher resolutions and frame rates. Better option than this, but sucks they didn’t bring it to other platforms. NG1 Black also never gets ported. Maybe one of those “they deleted the original files” situations like Silent Hill.

There were articles about it around the time the master collection was about to be released.

Amazing. There are dozens of these stories with Japanese developers.

Ultimate big dick move is to make a 10/10 .exe and then delete the source code

(ai will reverse engineer it for us in a few years anyway)
