What went wrong? "It seems like we made a Japanese hamburger for the West," Yosuke Hayashi, head of Team Ninja, told Gamasutra during an interview this morning. 

"I feel like maybe, as a Japanese developer, we need to make good Japanese food... That's what people are wanting from a Japanese developer. What we made, it's an okay burger, but it may not be what people are wanting."

Fuck yes. Someone gets it!


No, he doesnt get it. Everybody else did, but he stubburnly stepped aside Itagaki's design principles and purposely tried to create something bland.

No dismembering, no challenge, no variety = stupid developer that managed to blow the only good designer they  had for the ninja gaiden series.

Guys that stayed behind and tried to pretend that what was done before didnt work anymore = idiots that contributed for this to happen.

Struggling developer = developer that must die due to dumb decisions. Team ninja was Itagaki. This is now clearer than ever. No itagaki, no more point to team ninja. The only thing preventing DoA5 from going through the same is the fact they managed to sign a deal with SEGA to feature VF characters in the game.
