Shinobi 3DS - SEGA/Gryptonite Games

[Radrappy]

Except with sonic colors it was clear the game took full advantage of the hardware it was on.  This on the other hand . . .

That's a good point. I mean i'm not the biggest shinobi fan, but I really love the games too. It doesn't come close to the terrible thing they did with s4e1, but it still feels kinda like the same mentality where they just don't show much importance to the old franchises. It looks solid, i'll admit that. I think i'll probably enjoy it abit, but not more than that.

Hmm

... there will also be no yuzo koshiro, no?

It's a huge let down graphically unfortunately, but the general impression on the gameplay is positive, so no reason to play that down. That is all I am saying.

I am glad to see the series return though and at least Gryptonite seems to have recalled that Shinobi is not SOLELY about demons that Overworks changed it too, robbed a lot of the great elements of the series. Hopefully this has some indication of SEGA and may change SEGA's opinion on the series after Nightshade had such low sales and Shinobi (PS2) was so lucklustre to Shinobi 3: Return of the Ninja Master.

What  is up with all the people crying about graphics? No wonder the industry is where its at.

I eagerly await the day for $60 handheld games. It's the only thing that gives my life any meaning.

You just don't want games to feel phoned in.  It looks cheap, that's all people are saying.

[Suzuki Yu]

the gameplay itself is BAD because the animations and movements feels off , i can see this clearly from those glimpse!

[George]

So you already are judging the gameplay without playing it?

[Suzuki Yu]

we will see if i will change my mind , but based on what i saw i don't think so.

Yeah they probably did their research well, but the thing is that the game doesn't look like something that would sell me if shinobi never existed. It looks more like an average game. I think maybe that's what some have a problem with

That's it, I am sold. Great job griptonite. All it needs is the same kind of music like shinobi 3 and i'm sold.

Hmm, looks alright. Not really blown away, but it looks like it might be fun.

[CrazyT]

Honestly I think that the shurikens shouldn't be infinite but kind of scarse. Looking at that video I really think that would add to the experience if shurikens were more scarse

Hopefully you can change that like back in the days

Edit: You know, I never finished any of the shinobi's to be honest. They're all pretty difficult and long games without save slots. I think I might give it a run one of these days.

[Sega Uranus]

Making the shurikens unlimited is really not that big of a deal I think, if anything it makes the player want to use them more instead of just the sword.

Man, it is like every time I see this game the graphics get worse, but I honestly thing the gameplay looks good. Not sure how I feel about the parry, but eh, not sure how I feel about the 3DS in general.
