Shadow of the Ninja - Reborn Release Date Revealed!

I love how they incorporated contents from Ninja Gaiden Shadow because that game was also developed by Natsume.

[@lambasted6886]

Who at the marketing team thought that was 16 bit style!? That thar is some 32 bit Saturn/PS1 goodness, give your team some more credit! Way more pixel economy to maintain in the art.

[@Filtersloth]

Neo Geo 16 bit style

[@lambasted6886]

@Filtersloth Well, if we're going in that direction, the Neo Geo had 2 processors for that "24 bit" look.

[@tappersreviews4677]

I came here to say it looks more like 32bit. But it definitely looks great!

[@derekbuckler9888]

It's the same team that programmed Pocky & Rocky: Reshrined lam, it's good ol' Japanese hand drawn art. That's the way it should be, which Sega found out the hard way with Sonic Superstars. Claiming that "2D pixels are a thing of the past" another brilliant move by them, which is no surprise. And yes, I own a Sega Saturn. Still the best system ever made, at least in my opinion

[@paulreynolds5751]

reminds me of mame arcade graphics

[@meherenow793]

THIS is how a remake should be done

[@adityawandhare5277]

Totally agreed

[@hocineache7033]

Capcom should learn from them

[@draxorgarr7195]

3rd game that i played after having nes (my first playing system) . I was in love with the ost. Insta buy.

[@Oniphire]

34 years later ninjas have learned to carry multiple items. I'm ready!

[@jaisSBSB]

Oh man lots of memories playing this

[@erfolgreich]

This game has amazing 32-bit pixel art!

[@abe6281]

Goddamn, pixel art never gets old, this looks like the PS1 Megaman X games, so nice!

[@theusher2893]

Man, Natsume has been killing it with remakes

[@CaptainVulcan]

Me and my older sister used to play this game a lot back in the day (along with Super C and Super Mario Bros 3). Never expected this game to make a comeback. Also, Kaede had a rather interesting glowup...

[@billyj.causeyvideoguy7361]

I love how this looks and feels like a Saturn sequel might have.

[@thecastiel69]

I loved the nes one because it was not bright and colourful like other these types of games

[@MrVariant]

It's on switch online and that's also 2 player. I'll probably put this on hold if I don't see any other modes as the games aren't really long. At least there's a physical and collector's edition if you wanna collect a copy.

[@Jansherjaleel]

Hayate and Kaede !! ❤

[@jonathansanders3577]

This looks absolutely incredible. I totally want it. I hope it releases in the US and on Steam.

[@jonathansanders3577]

Nevermind, it's already on Steam. Wishlisted!

[@impawsiblegames]

This looks amazing, can't wait 💓 Those high detailed Backgrounds are stunning

[@crimsonwolf9572]

Did anyone else notice the pear-shaped girl resembling Chun Li's figure?😋

[@BloodDracolich]

1:24 A ninja with a blunderbuss, now I've seen everything!

[@isaacrios6861]

Natsume literally has been knocking it out of the park with these reboots. Pocky & Rocky, Ninja Warriors....so good!

[@ParrotMan01276]

It definitely feels more like a Saturn game or even PS1. This looks really good.

[@CozyCoffeeLofi]

The demo was amazing and i can't wait for the Reloaded to be out!

[@elmono6299]

Hopefully, they will release on Steam in the USA.

[@Crcvmbdfl]

Awesome, you 100% nailed the aesthetic, gameplay, music and local coop of a masterpiece game, the world needs more games like this. Am totally getting the Nintendo Switch physical version ❤

[@ChaossX77]

Nailed the music.

[@keness4768]

Id preorder this 4 more times if i thought it meant we would get more games like this... amazing work guys!

[@Skinkemann]

Oh man, I love the look of this! Great work!

[@tretozo]

These remakes of Natsume games are always good stuff👍

[@enigmaticons]

WOW , This looks AMAZING.

[@teenanguyen217]

NOW THIS IS HOW YOU REVIVE A FRANCHISE! THANKYOU GUYS!!

[@Hell_Dust-Buhnerman]

하. 어릴 때 이런 게임을 더 즐길 수 있었으면 얼마나 좋았을까...

[@winsyrstrife]

Very happy to hear this! I do miss the heavy bass line though. Pretty much got the chibi treatment. Not my preference, I liked the harder edge of the original; but nonetheless great news!

[@Jamall_Toys]

This game music is burnt into my brain cells. I played so many times trying to beat it. And I did it once. I going to get it, but god I hope there are some continues and more than 3 lives. 😁

[@venth85]

day one purchase for me, love this kind of game ~

[@jordanscherr6699]

Will mostly likely purchase on EShop, looks like a good game to go on the MicroSD card. So just checking, it IS going to be released digitally, right?

[@OhItsMulligan]

Ninja Gaiden meets Mega Man X And I am here for it!!!

[@shoken4421]

Remember folks it's been 34 yrs since this game appeared on the nes ,so the snes N64 Wii and switch consoles somehow could have never got this remake,heck the Wii and switch had the hardware ages ago ,there is no reason it takes you 34 yrs to do a remake of a game make in 1994!

[@teddychu1177]

For some reason I was confusing this with the Legend of Kage...

[@moseslalmuanpuia8988]

Can't wait to see captain hawk and emperor garuda

[@KusanagiShirou]

Instant buy

[@dxo8809]

This looks phenomenal.

[@jafal709]

Conheci seu canal agora, obrigado por compartilhar esse video, sucesso pra ti, mano.

[@Shining4Dawn]

Game looks awesome. The marketing text is bad. It's like saying "It took us 34 years to make the SNES sequel to our NES game". That's made even worse considering the game's visuals and audio aren't something the SNES is really capable of doing.

[@PaulGuzman-zk7kw]

Still have this title on the NES. One of the old but greats of yesteryear(s) 😁

[@Raliuga999]

Patiently waiting for this game

[@motleykingdom9394]

Added to my wishlist

[@fogblades6811]

BRO, imagine this for Shatterhand!

[@jguerrero7033]

Yes! Waiting on the eShop pre-order to show up!

[@DanielCenciD]

I love this game on the NES, personally I still think the original is more charming, but this one is beautiful, but it's not how I would imagine the game in 16 bits, personally I think it would be cooler hand-drawn in a comic book style with hard shadows. But this is me being annoying, it's incredible remake

[@lightelos]

looks fantastic im going to play it until my fingers explode just like 34 years ago!

[@Masuuruhiito]

oh man just like the company slogan put it. "Natsume. Serious Fun."

[@xeroxparc]

I want this game... so much!

[@armaanstation]

My childhood 😊

[@Puru719]

I used to love this game so much and now even more good

[@kayel9489]

HOLY CRAP, I PLAYED KAGE A LONG TIME AGO!

[@opa-age]

Natsume keeps blessing us with this amazing stuff...we are not worthy....

[@Robotnikegg]

first time i have heard of this game

[@piecesaw]

We need new Metal Slug with this Engine

[@mdtranvuongnguyen9017]

I prefer the old style which is dark and fun.

[@ErenTheWarcriminal]

This is amazing

[@1ozcaffeine]

Looking forward

[@memolano100]

This looks amazing and I love that it has local coop, at least I assume it has. I look forward to playing this with my GF.

[@k434-p4k]

i really need this in my arcade cabinet

[@Batz130]

I ❤ Shadow of the ninja so much. I cant wait for this.

[@JopieHaargel]

16-bit, my ass. This would have to be at least PS1 or Saturn back in the day. (source: being alive and sentient back in the day)

[@leonardorito4398]

Kage era o meu jogo favorito no Nintendinho na minha infância. Não vejo a hora de jogar Kage no meu PS4 e relembrar os bons tempos de infância!!

[@haraldharam9334]

Looks really good 👍

[@markhavick7115]

Shadow Man and Yuki.

[@kumiliarostreamsarchives3079]

More like 32 bit era style than 16 bit . Nice !

[@Sovngarde_Skyrim]

Dragon Fighter/NES - Remake too? :D

[@TerraXemnas]

Well welcome to my wishlist!

[@zzshiryuzz3199]

it's legend song and game

[@mlong9475]

Looks awesome ! Can't wait to get it !

[@JogadorLevel99]

Loved the snes and gba art style. I can't wait to play! :D

[@gergelyboros8138]

Im not crying ...

[@numberoneappgames]

Looking spicy! Nice.

[@NoiseCommander3DS]

Looks great!

[@andrewharry6967]

WOW! finally this game came out on STEAM! nice move!! ❤

[@BabaNamKevalamGames]

omg that's pretty cool

[@HypercatZ]

Let me address the elephant in the room: Dem thighes!

[@mlong9475]

I remember playing this game back in the day. I liked it since it seemed easier than Ninja Gaiden.

[@jonagameplays9752]

que bien que sigan haciendo buenos remakes.

[@854Z]

This looks epic

[@joseangelhernandez5274]

Damn this looks so cool

[@israelgonzalezabrego3551]

Amazing hope for 4:3 version, this games need to be played on a CRT

[@雪鷹魚英語培訓的領航]

Creamy colors and animations!

[@Ayy_Minus]

Me and wifey are getting down on this one!

[@paulor.aquino7091]

isso sim é um jogo atual !

[@tiagohermangameplays]

Awesomeness !!!

[@avalonjustin]

It looks very good.

[@lordfyita2096]

34 years after... That's why these kind of projects shouldn't be given to kids with no knowledge and without adult supervision, no wonder they fucked it up so bad, they don't take things seriously and think everything should be like their saturday morning, happy-ass cal-arts cartoons. The original all the way, is better in everything taking in account the year and technical limitations.

[@ronaldzamora8850]

Except it's the same team or veterans who already worked with the original game, even the same illustrator who did it.

[@lordfyita2096]

@@ronaldzamora8850 I highly doubt it, even when the steam page says so, i don't think they like this kind of kiddy crap. They maybe are involved in some way or another but the artists (no mention of them in the steam page) must be some cal-arts fan or reject, those drawings are awful. But, if you enjoy it and people like it, is their deal, not complaining about useless things.

[@bulthaosen1169]

Yeah i am getting it no matter what.

[@anbernicguy]

Awesome.

[@ryanmcdaniel468]

there was a Kage game for NES( one of my favs) and there was a Shadow of the ninja game(better than contra). and another called Kabuki quantum fighter but anyways. which game is this a reboot of? kage or Sotn?

[@mmmmccccccc]

Please release a physical version!

[@azathoz]

Amazing work. I'm eager to try it.

[@type2red]

🙏🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🙏🏽

[@DarkusObscurius]

Pls, allow us to change the gfx of the enemies and chars on PC. and use an classic version with GFX, music and sfx like wonderboy in the monster world did (if this isin't possible, emulation is OK).

[@lustisnotlove6226]

Kage 34 years later looks like some prince of arab

[@IMPROVISADOR]

OBRA DE ARTE

[@derekbuckler9888]

This is how games should be made, not forcing agendas. Like putting transgender pronouns in starfield, or gay pride flags in call of duty. And exactly why I've been sticking to Japanese developed games only, minus that crap Square pulled censoring FF7 Rebirth. This is how games were made when I was gaming in the 90's, that's Sega Saturn level of quality right there.

[@ThatNoizyChild]

But can we get a SHATTERHAND remake though?

[@ifstatementifstatement2704]

Wow!
