Depends what you thought was wrong with the first one. Difficulty isn't an issue. The game is still challenging but I played the first 2 stages on easy before starting over on normal and i did not die once.

Camera...yes, still an issue.

Cheesy story...While true, there are some cool things in here...as well as clad women which is always a plus. :) Nevertheless, saying you are playing Ninja gaiden for the story is like saying you are watching CNN for the latest unbiased world news.

Was anything else wrong with NG1?

Itagaki said this game is his vision of Ninja Gaiden...and that he is done with the series after this. So I don't think his intention was to make this appeal to fans of the first one...but instead he made the game he wanted to make.

Maybe these things we call issues is something that he likes and was part of his vision all along? Game developers do this less and less these days...so I appreciate when someone sticks to what they want rather than hiring a commitie to work on what will please the fans the most while also appealing to a wider audience.
