Ninja Gaiden 2 Black announced/Shadowdropped

[Polident]

What's the difference with Sigma and OG 2? I only ever played the original.

Also did they memory hole Ninja Gaiden 3? I remember playing an enhanced version of that on Wii U.

At the core, Sigma 2 rebuild NG2 around Sigma 1. Think it was slower, fewer enemies, easier, no dismemberment.

NG2 is playable on Xbox at higher resolutions and frame rates. Better option than this, but sucks they didn’t bring it to other platforms. NG1 Black also never gets ported. Maybe one of those “they deleted the original files” situations like Silent Hill.

There were articles about it around the time the master collection was about to be released.

Amazing. There are dozens of these stories with Japanese developers.
