Japanese XBLM to get NG2 demo on 5/30

After the demo news disappeared from the game's official site, many of us were worried that there would be no Ninja Gaiden 2 demo at all. Fortunately the demo does exist, and it should be online shortly. In Japan. Only.

Now we know that the 360 is no big success in the East, so why not just release the demo everywhere at once? No one knows. Posting on NeoGAF, Chris Paladino (Hi Chris!) of Gamerscore blog confirmed that the demo would be hitting in Japan, and that there would be a demo release in the other territories "soon". Whether the demo would have helped sales of the game pre-launch or not is going to be a moot point soon. Microsoft better get it online

Guess what I'm doing tonight?

I've got your picture of me and you
You wrote "I love you" I wrote "me too"
I sit there staring and there's nothing else to do
Oh it's in color Your hair is brown
Your eyes are hazel And soft as clouds
I often kiss you when there's no one else around

I've got your picture, I've got your picture
I'd like a million of you all round my cell
I want a doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
You've got me turning up and turning down
And turning in and turning 'round

I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

No sex, no drugs, no wine, no women
No fun, no sin, no you, no wonder it's dark
Everyone around me is a total stranger
Everyone avoids me like a cyclone ranger
That's why I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
I'm turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so
(think so think so think so)
Turning Japanese
I think I'm turning Japanese
I really think so

@rocketpig - I am reporting you for a crude and sexual innuendo ridden post.

I hope to hell the demo comes out before the retail. Just so I can get my hands on it sooner.

What can I say? Ryu makes me all tingly in my bathing suit region.

Ouch, the rump is not a good place to feel tingly after a ninja has been around.

Oh damn, I just finished playing through the demo and the game is really freaking awesome! Sure the camera was a bit hard getting used to maneuvering it around, but it's not too bad. At first the enemies were kicking my ass, but by the end I was whipping them! The game is very beautiful as well. I didn't notice any framerate issues with it while I was playing, but maybe that's because the action is so fast and furious I didn't have time to notice it, hehe. I'm definitely glad I pre-ordered this game!

Well this is not related to the demo, but to NG2. Anyway, this morning on the train I saw this Ninja Gaiden 2 ad.

At first I didn't know what kind of ad it was, because it's a little hard to tell. All three people(they are celebrities, or at least that's what my gf told me, but I don't know them) are holding 360 controllers. On the left side all it said was these people are playing NG2 and it has a link to the NG2 JP website. Oh and you can see the "little" NG2 box in the bottom right corner of the ad. click on the link to see it, because it gets cut off in the post.
