Well, to be honest I read reviews of the original Ninja Gaiden (and Black) for the first time not so long ago (long after finishing and mastering -ahem- both games) and the recurrent complaints about the camera really surprised me. While I agree there are certain stages where the camera makes it hard to play (the first example that instantly comes to my mind is going your way up the rock ledges with the zombie archers knocking you all the way back, in the underground of the monastery) most of the awkward angles happen when you fight close to walls, which many times is a good strategy against some enemies and bosses (including both Dokku fights -at least that's how I always fight him-) but overall, the R trigger was your friend if you'd be willing to use it to relocate the camera behind your back just as much as you use the other trigger to block! It really was not a big deal for me, and I spent more than 100 hours playing these games.
