Level 6-2 from Ninja Gaiden has got to be one of the best video game levels ever designed. I don't think I have had more fun trying to learn/master/pass a level than 6-2. Having played that level a couple hundred time you will finally learn it and it becomes 2nd nature. As much as I love the game I would not want to play it on a portable screen. Those flying jetpack ninja's and their ninja stars would probably knock me all over the place the annoy the ninjitsu out of me.

The ninja's are a cakewalk to me. IT'S THE STUPID RESPAWNING ENEMY THAT TAKES UP A WHOLE PLATFORM that kills me.

Ninja Gaiden Only gets tough towards the end of the game. I'd say II:Sword of Chaos in ways was a smidge easier, while III is the grand daddy of 2D Gaiden Hell Has anybody here beaten them all? I have. Pats radical self on the back*

@TheDreamingHawk
It's the bloody birds that get me everytime. Alfred Hitchock would be proud. That one little portion in 6-2 is deemed the toughest platforming section in the original Gaiden for a reason. Some say it's broken, but they're just a bunch of butt hurt babies who can't stand a good challenge.

^I see you've gotten into the season

I'm a little late which is pretty unusual, but as they say "better Witch than never!".
Hmmm, now all we need is one more Witch to make our special 8-bit brew.

Why does your avatar have the MM border around it, Wave?

It's the actual boarder around SplashWoman in the MM9 Robot Master selection screen.
I didn't alter anything.

They made a woman robot master in that game? Wow... I knew I shouldn't have just discovered the MM series...

Speaking of series, who wants to bet that Ninja Gaiden II and III will not come out in Europe, like with the wii?

Anyone know why this wasn't released today on the eshop?

Most likely either a problem with the game or they're holding it back for Razor's Edge. I'd plump for the latter personally, so next week or the week after?

They BETTER release it soon... NOA promised this to come out today, and neither them or TK have stated why it was delayed, so I'm very mad at both of them. It's one thing to label it as Q4 and to miss it, but it's almost insult to not release your game on the day it was stated to be. This is like RE5 on PSN all over again.

At least it isn't as bad as the sonic games...

@TDK with all the frantic preparation for WiiU, Ninty must have a lot on their plate. It'll probably come soon. Patience is key. :3

All right, I'm mad.

They could have easily released this for today to concide with NG3RE on wii U, but NO. It didn't come today either. And if it doesn't come next week I'll be very very mad. Especially when they promised it for LAST WEEK.

Can some NL staff member please contact tecmo about this? It's annoying and when I emailed them last week I got no response.

I just really hope this comes tomorrow... There's no excuse not to release it after 2 weeks of no shows.... plus EUROPE has it, even though we would have had it first.

Lol @TheDreamingHawk

Well we have it Europe and I'm not gonna buy it even though I can

Excuse me, but the fact that this was slated for the 8th of november in a NINTENDO PRESS RELEASE is what makes this so baffling. It isn't like they slated it for Q4, they slated it FOR THE 8TH. it did not make it, so it should come here tomorrow no matter what, there is no reason for it not to.

I wouldn't stress about it too much. In life things happen that cause delays/problems and it looks like this is the case here. Just enjoy playing something else until this arrives

Yeah, but when your game is promised for a certain date and has a coming soon video in the eshop, and MISSES the date entirely with NO explanation, it''s extremely frustrating. And what angers me even more is the fact that IT DID NOT COME OUT TODAY EITHER.

This so called "Delay" is just stupid, as there is no reason given whatsoever. I just want Nl to at least contact Tecmo for info on the delay, like how NP contacted Capcom about the MM games

Try not to worry about it too much. I'm sure it will be out next week, maybe...

In the coming soon section, NG and mighty bomb have pages!
