Ninja Gaiden 2 is one of the most frustrating games we’ve played in a long time. Not because we found it too difficult. We didn’t. In fact, the frustration isn’t borne out of something entirely negative either. The trouble with Ninja Gaiden 2 is that, up to a point, it was easily the most brainless fun [...]
För någon dag sedan slog nyheten ned. Världens kaxigaste spelproducent, den whiskydrickande Tomonobu Itakagi, lämnar Tecmo och stämmer dessutom företaget som tack för kaffet. Den 1 juli kommer Itakagi att lämna Team Ninja, den spelstudio han själva grundade. Bakom sig har han produktioner som Ninja Gaiden, Dead or Alive 3 och 4 och Dead or Alive Xtreme 2. Ninja Gaiden II, som släpps i morgon i Sverige, blev hans sista projekt på Tecmo. Den officiella orsaken till avhoppet är att Itakagi påstår
No hablamos de una nueva saga de los conocidos crossovers de Capcom, si no del que será sin duda uno de los culebrones más largos de los últimos tiempos. Todo ha comenzado por un comunicado oficial que ha hecho Tomonobu Itagaki asegurando que Yoshimi Yasuda, actual presidente de Tecmo, es una persona que no cumple su palabra aun cuando es capaz de hacerlo.

Team Ninja is a subsidiary of Tecmo, Ltd. lead by Tomonobu Itagaki. Team Ninja was founded in 1995 as a video game development studio.
Although not one of the oldest developers (with their first game, Dead or Alive), Team Ninja is one of many specialized teams (such as the Sonic Team or Team Silent) that produces consistent entertainment through a certain franchise (Sonic Team and Team Silent produce Sonic The Hedgehog games and Silent Hill games, respectively). With a resume of games including the Dead or Alive series and 2004's Ninja Gaiden, Team Ninja is responsible for the main successes of Tecmo.
Team Ninja has recently taken a habit to releasing a game on launch day for various systems, notably through their Dead or Alive series, which provides a good exhibition for a new console's power. Their games are frequently renowned for the high quality of their graphics.
Currently, Team Ninja is wrapping up work on Ninja Gaiden 2, due out on June 3, 2008, exclusively for the Xbox 360. Ninja Gaiden 2 will be published by Microsoft Game Studios, making it the first game created by Team Ninja not to be published by Tecmo. Another mysterious title is currently in development, known as Project Progressive. Also, Team Ninja is developing a game called Race Road for Wii, which will be their first racing game. Finally, one more unnamed project is in the works.
