>The "Godfather" of the Hack-and-Slash genre.>One of the Most Iconic NES Characters and the 8-bit era.>The De Facto Mascot of Koei Tecmo (which developed Metroid Other M, Hyrule Warriors, and Fire Emblem Warriors)>Main character in Dead or Alive, one of the few remaining notable fighting game franchises not in Smash.This character alone is enough of a reason for a new Super Smash Bros game to be released.
i have juggleslop fatigue
>>737400479Too bad his games don't sell, and his fanbase is full of posers.
>>737400610tf is that supposed to mean
>>737401610think about it
>>737400479>which developed Metroid Other MWorrying.
>>737400610>i have juggleslop fatigueyou know you don't have to do that right, you can just play them however you want
>>737400479>developed Metroid Other MThey should die immediately.
>>737403112Most of Other M's problems aren't exactly their fault though.Aside from the bland forgettable ass music anyway. Getting Ninja Gaiden composers on Metroid was a fucking mistake.
>>737400479Nintendo and Koei Tecmo may be best friends and making millions of dollars together, but Nintendo would sooner shut down all their studios and burn their buildings down than let a Dead or Alive character into their kids' game.
>>737403580Maybe, I certainly wouldn't trust Nintendo with anything if I was their partner. But they are benefitting a ton from having Koei Tecmo's people make actual good games for them.
>>737403315I could read your post, but I'd rather read The Count of Monte Cristo. One thing being good instantly means everything else must suck, right?
>>737400610Why?
>>737400615I'm currently on Chapter 5 in mentor on Xbox 360 NGII.
The godfather of bad cameras in action games
>>737400615Any real action game isn't supposed to sell.
>>737405370you control the camera
>>737400479his games are unplayable
Hey look, it's that guy who really hates Bo' Rai Cho.
>>737406240>really hates Bo' Rai Cho.Based
>>737400615Good games always sell less
>>737409491Just like concord and highguard
>>737400479They should have released a hack n slash with Kasumi as the protagonist and they would have sold millions more.
>>737400610NG1 isn't juggleslop though.
>>737412021And that's why it's the best.
>>737412160I agree wholeheartedly. I love the exploration and style of NG1. Those old sound effects and sword trails did a lot of heavy lifting.
>>737400479I enjoy the NGs (except 3) and they really fill a niche type of action game. As long as MS funds another one eventually.
>>737400479Give it up, anon.Naruto ruined ninjas forever
>>737412484Not being juggleslop is one thing, I feel that it's the only Ninja Gaiden game that feels truly complete as a package, even vanilla NG1. The boss fights suck but overall it has the most consistently fun experience in the whole series. NG2 is painfully unfinished, which hurts because even in its current state it's so much fun. I can't imagine the fucking masterpiece we would have gotten if Itagaki and his team got to work on it fully. NG3, story aside, took the combat in a direction that I don't really like, and contrary to what people on the subreddit and here always say, I don't think Ryu has a very fun moveset in that game. Maybe it's because the enemies don't really let you play with that moveset, which is saying something cause I already felt that way with NG2. I never played NG4 past the first two levels. It's not what I wanted out of a NG sequel, and the fact that Ryu isn't the main character TOAAH'ing everywhere makes me wish it was just some new IP Platinum made. If it was I would definitely enjoy it cause it looks very well made. But as is, I just can't help but be filled with "what ifs" when playing it, and comparing it to previous entries. NGB is a lot like DMC1, DMC3 and MGR to me, lightning in a bottle. Very hard to make something that makes you feel the same way afterwards.
>>737412484I wanna make a successor
>>737400479So did they succeed with the whole "new generation" stuff?
>>737400610I don't, I have soulslop fatigue and the treatment to that is jugglelsop.
>>737400610Juggleslop is the cure to souls rollslop.
>>737400479He's does not deserve to get in before Dante because he's really not that iconic besides on niche gaming circles online.Ryu would receive reactions of disappointment on the same level as Kazuya
>>737400479You do know that if he gets into Smash, it would be the Snes action-platformer version?
>>737400479>the Hack-and-Slash genre>Ryu Hayabusa is the godfather of Diablo clones
>>737417040why? he has 2 Nintendo 3DS/DS exclusives and NG3RE was initially a Wii U exclusiveTeam Ninja still has exclusive versions of some Fatal Frame games for the Wii
>>737415075Hayabusa has been a gaming icon for 40 years you zoomie.
>>737417525Because the NES version is less gorier, is easier to translate to Smash and is more relevant to video game history due to being one of the first games with story development via cutscenes.
>>737413032Boss fights are pretty hard to do right. I don't think any of the action games have a flawless track record for bosses but outside of the bosses the games are very fun. They had a chance to atleast bundle everything into one package with NG2:B but they wussed out on the enemy spam. NG1 happens to hit all the right notes that fills me with nostalgia. A type of longing or wishing that I could be a cool leather clad ninja walking the streets saving people from evil ninja. Something that irritates me while talking about action games is the posts that go "I don't play these games for good level design!!! I play them for the combat!" but if that was really all you needed then why not just make every action game a copy of Bloody Palace with no story and with no cutscenes and no level transitions or anything. I think it's just being hyperbolic which leads to rather reductionist talking. Anyway, NG3 fell flat on it's face by insinuating that killing people was "uncool" or "unjust" for Ryu while also trying really hard to make it seem cool that Ryu was chopping people up. The narrative was fighting the gameplay and the gameplay suffered by placing more of an emphasis on just the DS rather than the fact that Ryu can and will use any weapon to remove enemies from his path. Fishing for SoB was also not as fun as it could be and NG4 continues this idea with overpowered parries. NG4 is an okay game but the parry system had me feeling like I was sometimes being rewarded for just hitting buttons rather than me consciously using the maneuver. That and being able to stall for meter made NG4 not as strong a game as it could be in the gameplay department.
>>737417040It would be both versions as alternate costumes or skins.
>>737400615>yellow paint slop is released>fans don't buy itThat's the opposite of being a poser.
>>737419847>why not just make every action game a copy of Bloody Palace with no story and with no cutscenes and no level transitionsMy thoughts exactly. DMC5 for me is nothing but bloody palace cause I don't enjoy the actual levels, even though I like the combat just fine. NGB and NG2 wouldn't be anywhere near as fun if they didn't take place in the coolest examples of level and design and environment aesthetics respectively.>NG3 fell flat on it's face by insinuating that killing people was "uncool" or "unjust" for Ryu while also trying really hard to make it seem cool that Ryu was chopping people upSpeaking of which, I personally feel the "senseless killing = bad" plot isn't even new to Ninja Gaiden. In the first game, Murai basically does some CIA shit and gets the assault on the Hayabusa village going. Whether he expected Ryu to get revived by the Hayabusa spirit is not clear, but the rest of the game makes it feel like Murai deliberately set everything up so Ryu would kill as many people as possible to power up the Dark Dragon Blade since it feeds off of chaos or something. The game obviously doesn't explore its plot in depth and whatever I'm saying is a stretch, but I think the basic idea of killing people too much is bad was there, and it worked fine enough. Then they butchered it in 3. The line at the end from Muramasa always kills me, something about "is Ryu a hero or a killer? I guess he's a ninja, which is both". Yeah thanks for repeating what most people already thought of Ryu and taking an entire game to say it.

He deserves to be there by the NES legacy only, it would be cool if Smash Bros team added both Classic and the Legendary Black Falcon suit
>>737425052>female protagonist = tranniesThen die pandering to fujos who don't even touch action games in the first place.
>>737405961I don't have more than 10 hand fingers mr Asia man
>>737431406>i cant play a game if it has more than 2 buttons
>>737400479>>The "Godfather" of the Hack-and-Slash genre.Wouldn't that be DMC? It came out in 2001, the first 3d Ninja Gaiden came out in 2004.
>>737433078The 2004 Ninja Gaiden is aggressively ripping off DMC, yes. He's wrong both on that and in even calling hack and slash because that suggests Diablo 2 counts but God Hand doesn't.
>>737434393NG1 has more in common with Onimusha than it does dmc.
>>737434535I remember doing juggle combos on enemies in Onimusha. Oh wait.
>>737400610Good thing that term doesn't apply to NG
>>737433078This is like saying that the first platformer was Mario 64
They fucked up by having it on Xbox. those faggots didn't appreciate it enough so everyone went with DMC as their go to hack'n'slash.
