Nice! The game doesn't look like a masterpiece, by any means, but it sure looks like a heck of a lot of fun. Maybe we'll get a Western release window for the US at E3!

gameboy14006d ago (Edited 4006d ago )

At E3 you will see it being played and going off this promo it's going to look amazing with amazing gameplay as well.

Look at the 4.39 min mark the stain glass windows the lighting looks incredible graphics if you look close are impressive.

The game has come a long way since last year, it's considerably smoother and the character details are much better. The effects also look to be quite nice. My only real concern on the graphics front is some slightly "iffy" looking environmental objects and textures here and there (about the 2:27 mark is a good example).

* Looks like a solid addition to the Wii U.

It's like COD, without having to be tied down to everything that is COD + melee combat and swords and stuff.

Looks fun enough.

wonderfulmonkeyman4006d ago

I'm highly interested in the story. There looks to be a lot of personality behind the various characters...

Been in development too long. Unleash it Itagaki

Talk about a kick in the nutter butters

naruga3432d ago (Edited 3432d ago )

this game creator payed his idiocy to change the development for exclusive release on a dying hopeless console with the best way ....the game was generally good i liked it and was the closest thing to a hardcore Ninja Gaiden we could get on new consoles ....but literaly its creator was idiot as f..k to undermine his game (it was obviously downgraded for Wii u) and release it exclusively on a underpowered system for some cash,destroyed his name in a moment

rjason123431d ago (Edited 3431d ago )

Oh boo hoo. Someone didn't get a game to come to their system.

@Edmix
Believe me I know the feeling haha, just pushing out a similar statement many others make, just cause.

ShaunCameron3431d ago (Edited 3431d ago )

@ rjason

Apparently.

@ XisThatKid

How did they ask for it? You know the company responsible for the engine used to make the OG game went under forcing Itagaki to scrap it and start over, right? Not to mention THQ, its original publisher, eventually withdrawing support before going under. As for it becoming a Wii U exclusive, Nintendo was the one willing to help Itagaki with the funding to finish making the game.

_-EDMIX-_3431d ago

This is easily one of the stupidest investments I've ever seen any company ever make for an exclusive by a third party. I'm surprised you think the game is any good at all because I don't really believe the Wii U made this game bad, believe it was going to be bad regardless of where it was. The Wii U has a handful of really great games please do not blame the hardware for how crappy this game actually is. To my understanding when you create a game for a specific piece of Hardware your job is to adapt. So do not blame the hardware for why this game was horrible blame the developer for even downgrading the game in the first place as opposed to adapting to their situation. If you have to downgrade a game so significantly that it begins to affect the design and quality you're probably not supposed to be downgrading it in the first place to such a platform. I don't blame the platform in this respect I blame the developer because they chose to continue despite knowing the hardware differences. The regular Wii U exclusives don't have that problem because they were made to actually work on that platform...

@rjason- could be because it sounds to me like he basically likes the game but he's angry at the decision of it being exclusive somewhere else

XisThatKid3431d ago (Edited 3431d ago )

I have not felt so selfish about a game before. I like many waited and waited patiently since this games release and out of no where Wii U exclusive. At the time i didn't have a Wii u and honestly i wanted it for ps3 but that never happened nor for 4. Anyway i honestly am glad this happened. Save for the innocent dev and people involved But i never wanted a game to fail so badly. Not to mention when i finally played it i think it sucks imho. I'm fine with exclusives but when a game's announced for your console or platform of choice then retracted they're asking for it.

bouzebbal3431d ago

he had no big name to start with.. this same guy did the same to DOA4 and Ninja Gaiden for 360 and in the end he talks s### about Team Ninja about NG3 and DOA5. He's a loser !

Ikr it looked interesting in the beginning before it became an nintendo exclusive. Don't know what happened when it became an exclusive.

_-EDMIX-_3431d ago

Who knows , it was probably always going to be bad.

Ravenor3431d ago

A lot happens when a game gets developed. A proof of concept demo or pre rendered video being received well doesn't necessarily equate to a game game being good.

BLKxSEPTEMBER3431d ago

I'm still looking to buy a copy at a reasonable price.

ocelot073431d ago

Depends on where you are located. Here in the UK you can pick this up for around £12.

BLKxSEPTEMBER3431d ago

I'm in California. I haven't seen a hard copy yet.

xMANB3ARP1G3431d ago

bro you wont they made so few copies they are mostly locked in cages atm in ppls collections waiting for the value to skyrocket.

BLKxSEPTEMBER3431d ago

Yeah that's what I figured.

xMANB3ARP1G3431d ago

i only say that because im in the same boat all physical copies near me were scooped up day one and ebay had a field day

alfcrippinjr3431d ago

and this is why we should not support nintendo any more
they done it with the wii and they killed the ds off for no reason.

total bad for business

ShaunCameron3431d ago

Um. You can still get the main D3rd game, albeit digitally. The only thing they killed here was the online multiplayer.

OtakuDJK1NG-Rory3431d ago

Wait why are peopole acting like they care now? You didn't when it was released.

gangsta_red3431d ago

Yea, I haven't heard a peep or a whisper of this game since its debut.

gamer78043431d ago

its the principle of it, i don't like seeing any games shut down so quickly

Chaos_Order3431d ago

I don't think Itagaki is crazy for making a Wii U exclusive.

I think he's crazy for pushing out a half baked, flawed as all hell, generic gore fest on the Wii U without making use of any of the console's specific features, and throwing his toys out of the pram when people criticise it.

PhoenixUp3479d ago

Sucks to spend eight years on a project only to have it flop

MilkMan3479d ago

Love the interview. He's a great developer and I liked Devils Third.
