Itagaki Says You'll Be Surprised At How Wonderful, Innovative Ninja Gaiden DS Is

Tomonobu Itagaki sat down with the crew at CVG to talk all things Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword for the Nintendo DS, but he seemed to keep harping on how totally badassical and ultra killer it's going to be.

In explaining the best stylus controls ever, Itagaki says we won't know how completely mind-blowing they are until we see them in their heavenly glory. Fortunately, he's here to help!

I plan to have footage of the actual game being played available to view on the Internet in the near future. My reasoning for this is that, because the controls in this game are so innovative, watching someone play this game is the only way to realistically understand how wonderful it is.

I personally look forward to trying out Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword's "immensely intuitive" tap-and-draw control scheme, which the Ninja Gaiden creator says we can expect to hit in the fall. Fortunately, for the ninja dogs who aren't that hardcore, the game will have a lower difficulty than previous Ninja Gaiden games. It's just all coming together so swimmingly!
