GungHo President Says Ninjala Will Be Fun For Players Of All Ages

I dunno - seems kinda splatoon-ey to my

"Are you looking forward to the release of Ninjala?"

My answer : YES !! Definetely !! 😃

There will be more revenue when more advertisement come out. I thought this was cancelled until now.

Watched gameplay previews a number of times and although kinda rough it was really interesting. IMO the only thing splatoon-esque with this game are the chosen color pallete for most of the design.

I remember playing this at E3 2018 and not being too impressed. Hopefully the extra time did it some good.
I won a huge inflatable ninjala bat for winning the demo match that I have hung on my wall and I was looking at it like two days ago and saying “ I wonder how this game did. did it ever release? “

Now I know

How have I never heard of this? I read something saying “a shooter”? Sounds like it’s trying to take over Splatoon, as far as the theme. Am I not even close here and did I misread? I’m tired now, sorry. Lol

If it jumps platforms, I will lose all interest.

Forget this nonsense, gung-ho where the h... is Grandia 3 on the switch?, or maybe other games you created in the past, let's say ragnarok odyssey as an example? Who am I kidding, we'll never see that stuff.

Ninjala looks like it is to Splatoon what Paladins is to Overwatch. As such, it needs to be cheaper then Splatoon...if not free.

Splatoon inspired for sure

I want to like this game but the trailer just gives me this feeling of emptiness. As with all games though I hope this turns out to be a great game.

This looks so much like the city level from Mario Odyssey, loos fun though.

@J-Plap is that a problem tho? It has a similar style but it looks different t gamey wise. Almost how battlefield and call of duty are similiar

Thank god! I was hoping to see more of this

@CatSoul it's not a shooter though. At least it doesnt have the same mechanics to call it the paladins. It's more like how battlefield and cod are.

Was just thinking about this game a few days ago. Wondering if any significant changes have been made or if it was even still releasing. I am definitely still intrigued.

The art style is highly reminiscent of Splatoon, and the gameplay interests me. And ninjas are always awesome. I'll have to try this out someday.

Never heard of this before today. I like the vibe, hard to say if the gameplay will live up to it.

@J-Plap You act like that's a bad thing.

I buy good games so we’ll see!

Dear Devlopers and Publishers,
stop with the mentallity that if a game is "made so everyone can play it" that it will sell more.GTA5 for example is not kid friendly .It's fun for mostly everyone who's played it but trying to make everything accesible is pointless. Just make games with specific audiences in mind Age,Art Style prefrence ,M rated or E Rated content.Think about who you're going to sell this game to before you make the game then try to sell it.And I'm not saying neccesarily that this publisher/developer isn't but when I hear "for all ages" it's 9/10 times it's people that aren't selling something that appeases anyone very well since it appeals to everyone and it makes concessions as a result.

Splatoon says: "Stay Fresh"

This game does look fun.

If the gameplay is fun, and it has a good soundtrack, it could be huge.

Will it be bug ridden and over priced mess like granda HD collection?

As much as Nintendo life seem.to push this company ( grandia collection was in safe hands and we know how that turned out) they are just not very good.

What does GTA being rated M have to do with anything Morishita said? You cans still be accessible with mechanics that are simple enough that anyone can understand it (which is the case for GTA)

"It's fun for mostly everyone who's played it but trying to make everything accesible is pointless."

Pokemon is more successful than the standard JRPG just due to it's accessible nature. Smash Bros. is more accessible than other rival fighting game. There's definitely a market for accessible games.
Not every series needs to be accessible and alienate the hardcore audience, but neither does every series need to be overly alienating to all but a niche market.
"Just make games with specific audiences in mind Age,Art Style prefrence ,M rated or E Rated content.'
An E rating literally means for EVERYONE. And even if you mean by an E rating that it should appeal to kids, wouldn't a game for the E rating, shouldn't it be accessible? If you bought a 2D Mario game for a 5 year old, would you expect it to be as complicated as MH?

" but when I hear "for all ages" it's 9/10 times it's people that aren't selling something that appeases anyone very well since it appeals to everyone and it makes concessions as a result."
I think that's true to some degree for certain series/genres, but for a game obviously modeled on Nintendo multiplayer games like Splatoon/ARMS, it's not like those games weren't accessible in the first place, both of them appealed to all ages and were easy to learn, but hard to master.

I imagine Ninjala will be quite similar in that department.

This looks like generic, unambitious, designed-by-committee trying-too-hard-to-be-cute free-to-play garbage.

I’ve been wanting this game for awhile now so hopefully there will be a release date soon!

@PickledKong64 not a problem at all! The gaming industry is due for some more good colorful online games imo and this is one of them!

@MarioFan02 not on purpose :3

Absolutely love the gum mechanics.

teaser in 2017
trailer in 2019
release in 2021 (logic)

@hakjie11 Videogames really are turning into film.

Visually, I see the similarities with Splatoon, but I've played this game at PAX. It's nothing like Splatoon, so it's really not a good comparison. It's a new take on shooters, like Splatoon, but it's still a different type of game. I had a good time playing the game, and I also have a large inflatable bat at home from winning the match. I think it's worth checking out.

If someone still don't know about Ninjala gameplay, Ninjala is basically Kingdom Hearts in Splatoon style outfits. (From the way they hold the blade like keyblade and the way of wall climbing, looks much like Kingdom Hearts)

@Toy_Link no

I like the artstyle still, so I'll keep my ear to the ground.

@LoveEmpath

OK

@Toy_Link also don't copy anything I say without emailing me first otherwise I'll have no choice but to sue you for slander. Have a day

@Zuljaras First of all don't tell me to have any kind of day without adressing me properly .
2. It is illegal in my country and the united Kingdom and in Eastern England that borders Ireland and the rest of England .
3rd my private space is my speech so obviously you don't understand how law or anything works.
4th nice oprresive pfp you have there feel free to be ashamed of yourself.

@LoveEmpath Let's stop whatever this is.

@Eel Ok I will censor myself from responding to anyone else in this conversation since that's what you want.

@LoveEmpath thanks!
