Interesting that Ninja gaiden gets such a big spot on the box

Nintendo trying to court the "hardcore" gamers. Pikmin and P-100 wouldn't really get the job done.


Aren't Nintendo publishing ninja gaiden 3?

Yes, they are, but they're also publishing Pikmin and P-100. So why choose Ninja Gaiden over Pikmin, a first-party game to boot? It's because they're trying to appeal to the "core" gamers.

That's a pretty poor way to do that since most core gamers know to stay the hell away from Ninja Gaiden 3 lol.  They'd be better off if they featured someting like Ubisoft's Zombi U or Assassin's Creed III on there.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

lol i know the game has some extra feature, but the point is it got scathing reviews by both critics and fans alike, so it's not as if this game is one of the Wii U's killer apps.

Well, that's Nintendo's problem, lol. Although at this point I think it's not so much about the game itself as it is what the game represents. Nintendo publishing a super gory HD game. Third party support. Plus it's supposed to be a significant improvement over the original version.

They would definitely be better off with ACIII on it, but as all of the games advertised are Nintendo-published, I think that's the direction they were going with this one.

“For Razor’s Edge, we listened to the feedback (from Ninja Gaiden 3) and we reexamined what the series was, what the game was, what people want. We’re going back to rethinking what the series means. The concept for the Wii U version of Razor’s Edge is for it to be its own action game, an action game that doesn’t try to be anything else. It just tries to be its best.”

Lo I don't know their words make me hopeful as I did like gaiden 2 a lot. So im hopeful
