Talk:Ninja Gaiden

message: Concurrently there is a sequal to the xbox version being developed. It hasn't been officaly announced as to which next generation console it will launch for. The XBOX 360 and PS3 are both being considered, however only one will win the bid.
Your sure its not ultimately decided for to go for the Xbox 360? Making it for Sony would seem to betray Xbox users. -- Psi Edit
Itagaki interview. He thinks the Xbox 360 is better than the PS3, why develop for something that's hard to develop for / "worse?" :D Alexander 10:15, 11 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Sequel

message: If I remember correctly, wasn't there an OVA for NinjaGaiden released somewhere around the early 90's? From what I can find about it, it was a one episode mini-movie, about 49 minutes long. I'm not positive on this though, it'd be nice to be corrected if I'm wrong about this.

Well your link does make sense (Ninja Gaiden was originally Ninja Ryukuden). --PSi edit
There was recently (<1 week ago) a fansub of it released (I'm pretty sure it's not licensed for distribution in the USA, but I could be mistaken). I don't remember the exact runtime, but 49 minutes sounds about right, and it is a standalone. There's no real references to when it takes place relative to the NES games, though from what some of the characters said, it's after the second or third. I was going to write up a little blurb about it later this week, though it'd be entirely a plot summary since I don't have any non-original sources to go by.Virogtheconq 15:09, 16 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  The NinjaGaiden OVA 

message: The infobox looks kinda weird up there since this article covers all the games. How about making a Ninja Gaiden (Xbox) article and moving the stuff there? Thunderbrand 01:46, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don;t mean an article for each game in the series, just a seperate article for Ninja Gaiden and Ninja Gaiden Black for the Xbox. Thunderbrand 17:19, 15 January 2006 (UTC)

text: I think he means one page for the XBOX games, and a separate one for the (S)NES/arcade ones.Virogtheconq 06:15, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

text: I'm pretty late to this conversation, but I agree that the article should be split between this page, talking about the series as a whole, with the Xbox titles in their own article (as proposed - Ninja Gaiden (Xbox)). There's also the potential for each of the NES games to get an article, as NG2 already does, but that's another subject. --SevereTireDamage 06:21, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Split? 

message: Technically Shadow Warriors and Ninja Gaiden are, as far as the Europeans and Australians are concerned, two completely different games, although they were both by Tecmo. The arcade "Double Dragon" style beater was known across the two continents as Shadow Warrior, as were the conversions to the ZX Spectrum, C64, Amstrad CPC, Amiga and Atari ST.
The platform game that appeared on the NES, SNES, Game Boy, Game Gear and the later next-gen remakes are known universally here and in Australia as Ninja Gaiden. Jamyskis Whisper, Contribs  20:05, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  ''Shadow Warriors'' vs. ''Ninja Gaiden'' 

message: I added some information about Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword, as IGN and other gaming sites wrote about it. Just felt it needed to be updated. You can trust it because IGN is one of the most popular leading sites for technology and video games. PЄ|>ρ3® 16:40, 31 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:NinjaDistance.png

message: Per discussion, the disambiguation page titled Ninja Gaiden will be eliminated and will instead be home to this series article to improve consistency with game article naming as well as to reduce any ambiguities.
In addition, this will facilitate the moving of other Ninja Gaiden articles to new places, such as moving Ninja Gaiden (video game) to Ninja Gaiden (NES). MuZemike (talk) 16:10, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: . I left the disambig page at Ninja Gaiden (disambiguation), you guys sort it out from there. –xeno (talk) 03:17, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: File:NinjaDistanceSNES.png Nominated for speedy Deletion

message: All NG characters who do not have their own articles are redirected here, but there is NO character listing in this article. Why is that? I mean, casual readers aren't going to have a clue what an Ashtar or Bio-Noid are. If someone wants to remedy this issue, that would be great. I'm currently in the process of cleaning up Ryu Hayabusa. sixtynine • speak up • 03:38, 13 February 2016 (UTC)
thread_title: Characters

message: There should be a little slice of information about how to pronounce "Gaiden", as there seems to be a large debate about it. Google text-to speech says "Gay-den", but in the film by Nintendo "The Wizard", they say "Guy-den".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by RubyTuesdaysLover69420 (talk • contribs) 07:10, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Include Pronunciation  

message: I added a new section because Ninja Gaiden was US arcade game of the year in 1990, probably could do with a better source than the one I have added. Where there any other awards in the series? Govvy (talk) 12:58, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
