>>12102098Dead or ̶A̶l̶i̶v̶e̶ RIP.
RIP
>>12102098if it's true, RIP to a real man
Greatest action game of all time. I will not be told otherwise. DMC is fine but its not NGB. GOW isn't even in the discussion for GOAT.
>>12102136Too based for this world

>>12102264I hope he reincarnates as a bird that takes a shit on your head, heathen

>>12102285>he reincarnates as a birdJonathan Livingston Seagull was a great book.
>>12102302It really wasn't, it was 70s feel-good hippie pablum,written like a children's book, but children hated it because it was too fake

>>12102298nothing but respect for the man
Fucking F man. This dude gave us the greatest salaryman game in history.>>12102259he also credits a run-in at a bar with the DMC3 director as being the reason that that game was good.>>12102298wow, so that's what he looked like without all the bad fashion decisions
>>12102321>PS2 versionno gore posting plz
WtfF
>>>/v/723364948Kys faggot
>>12102264He's Japanese, not Indian.
RIP brother. I still remember my shock on seeing for the first time Dead or Alive 2 for the Dreamcast. It was so above everything else it was insane.
RIP. Last manly Japanese developer.
>>12102098No fucking way. Rest In Peace. And fuck (Koei) Tecmo
Wish KT would rerelease the DOA series I can't emulate a 360 and I always wanted to play 4
>>12102105(you) son of a bitch. Itagaki would be proud.
>>12102098F. NGB is my favorite Xbox game
>>12102483Retard. One of the main reasons the Japanese often easily commit suicide is because virtually all of them believe in reincarnation. Buddhism is one of the two main religions in Japan.
>>12102098NG, DOA, FF. He delivered more than most devs. RIP Legend.
>>12102483Fun fact: Buddhism spread outside of India, midwit-kun.
>>12102594Two wrongs don't make a right.
>>12102602One's a race of people dying in accidents all the time because of their own negligence, the other are Japanese.

>Itakagi didn't like lewd sketches of DoA girls because he thought of them as his daughtersRIP legend
>>12102098no sticky?
>>12102639Based
WHERE'S THE STICKY!?
>>12102656>>12102671his games aren't retro
>>12102691Dead or Alive is giga retro, right along the original virtua fighters.
>>12102691Do you even dead or alive or dead or alive 2?
Well that's a fucking bummer.
I still have him in my Mii Plaza.
>>12102098Rest in peace
>>12102602Also Buddhism originally in Nepal.
>>12102098RIP, he truly was too based for this world.Also where's the fucking sticky?
>>12102742there is one at /v/ right now with cool stories of him.The man was based as fuck
>>12102696>>12102656Devil’s Third demake for retro system?
Does anyone have a list of all the games he worked on?
>>12102767Yeah, multiple people do.

>>12102098You were my perfect friend, right there until the end, I'm forever missing you until we meet again.
>>12102298First time I see him without glasses, feels pretty weird.
>>12102785Wish he do a Star Wars games
>>12102242what? are you a bluesky fag?
>>12102916Much better than being a racist/sexist piece of shit.
Was it the Russians or the Triads that got to him?
>>12102920It's the NG4 schizos.
>>12102920He did foreshadow Ukraine conflict
sad shit man, 58 is young. dont know much about DOA but ninja gaiden is one of the best action games of all time
>>12102918shoop da whoop nigga!
>>12102298Fuck...RIP
RIP we need more dudes in gaming who insist beyond all reason that a video game should be difficult and have lots of huge tits in it.
>>12102136They just don't make gamedevs like this anymore
The era of JAP violence gangs is gone.
>>12102918Nah, I'd say being a correct and supercorrect piece of perfection is by far more desirable than bluesky
>>12102918This is not reddit faggot
>>12102105
>>12102545You can play them all on the current xbox
>>12102098What was the story behind the "sexual harrasmunt" rumor milling that got him kicked?
>>12102445>>12102656Dimensions and everything after 4 was fucking awful and done to spite him after they cancelled him, didn't the bitch who accused him later turned out she took DEI/HR style bribe?
What a boss Ninja Gaiden on Xbox barged in as a new level of action games that raised the standards immensely, it was like the Mario 64 of action games.Forever a legendRIP
>>12103373>>12103385It was Tecmo trying to discredit him when he filed a lawsuit against the company for the president not paying him the bonus he was promised for DOA4.Japan has a harsh stigma against suing corporations, most especially your employer. Many shows and stories try to push the idea that doing so is selfish and anti-social, and bad things will happen to you as a result.
>>12102207SecondingRIP Oatmeal Cookie
>>12102098Crater face nip? Damn
>>12102639>that picFucking based
>>12102918
>>12102894Same.
>>12102691Itagaki's first two games made gamers notice breast physics in lieu of actual breasts.>>12103532Those glasses really frame his face. He just looks weird without them.>>12103385>>12103519Go back to /v/ and stay there.
>>12102098Ninja Gaiden was where video games peaked. I have never been that impressed since.
>>12102098I did not expect to be tearing up listening to Aerosmith today. Replaying Ninja Gaiden Black for the 20th time in this man's honor.
>>12102098I usually hate coomers but the boob game was funny playing it on my dreamcast as a kid, RIP
>>12102098MY GOATIS DEADREST IN POWER

>>12103616What song?
>>12102098What's gonna happen to the DOA franchise now that the creators gone?
Japanese Howard Stern
>>12103754It's been dead for years, m8
>>12103754It's already a dead franchise, never mind that Itagaki also left Tecmo 17 years ago anyway.
>>12102098Without 4chan I would never know who this is. Though I never played any games he worked on
>>12102264Galatian 3:28You must be Protestant, because one of your preachers must have omitted that part they didn't lagree with like the whole Book of Tobit or Sirach.
>>12103532He looks like an Injun without them.
Why no sticky?
>>12103810Because /vr/ isn't a bastion of retarded posters spamming the same thread en masse. You want a sticky, go to /v/.
>>12103810Jannies don't know Itagaki
>>12103754DOA has been dead since DOA6, the game where Koei Tecmo was very vocal about toning down the franchise's sex appeal. Result: fans didn't buy it, and the people they tried to cater to didn't buy it either.
>>12103860This. DOA's been stuck on Volleyball Gacha Island as a result and I don't think Ninja Gaiden 4's going to move the needle.
>>12103823The Dragon Quest composer's passing got a sticky.

>>12102319>>12102327>>12102656>>12102671>>12102742>>12103810There will not be a sticky because Dead or Alive didn't come out on Nintendo 64.
Ninja Gaiden Black was a massive hit at my favela. I played it a lot on my softmodded Xbox. Great fucking game ever made.RIP Itagaki.
I bought these on Steam (Master Collection) a few months ago, haven't played them yet. What am I in for, bros? I feel like playing them to honor Itagaki.
>>12102098F
>>12103745I Don't Want to Miss a Thing>“No matter what anyone says, Aerosmith and Armageddon were the ones who saved my life, my company, my friends and my family,” Itagaki concluded
>first itagaki>now aceWhat a shitty day
>>12102136Rest in peace, king.
>>12102406>he also credits a run-in at a bar with the DMC3 director as being the reason that that game was good.Sounds awesome, source?
Ninja Gaiden Black 2 is insultingly easy, so my hopes for 4 aren't super high. RIP to a legend.
>>12103954The sigma versions are slightly gayed up. Play Ninja Gaiden Black for 1, and the 360 version for Ninja Gaiden 2.
>>12104069The Sigma version of 1 isn't gayed up, nor 3. Only Sigma 2 is gay
>>12102098FHe made the two best action games of all time. Head and shoulders above the rest. We've lost a legend.
Regarding culture in general, we're falling.Just look at this board (and it still is better than most other online spaces, lmao).At least nobody will be able to erase my experience in the pre-social media world.
>>12103954Only 1 is a masterpiece2 turned into an anime and 3 was after SJW era
>>12103943Wish Birdy the Mighty,Jungle de Ikou and Shamanic Princess have N64 games
>>12104180NG1 = DMC3NG2 = DMC1NG3 = DMC2Devil’s Third = DMC4 but Bayo use a katanaNG4 = presumably DMC5
>>12102918Yikes
Bumping before the spammer shoves it off the catalog. Mods, sticky this.
>>12104538The spammer should've died, not Itagaki.
RIP guy
Beat NGII back in August for the first time. RIP ninja master.

>>12102098That sucks but the 8-bit games were better.
>>12102098Rest in Peace, Itagaki. Thank you for DoA and Ninja Gaiden.
>>12103898Only difference between /v/ and /vr/ is density.
>>121039543 feels like a classic NES NG, but is easily the worst in the series.
>>12102207>still forever trapped in the FATbox prisonFucking Microsoft
>>12104365>Devil’s Third = DmCFixed for you
>>12103976I see. This was the song that made me a fan of them when I was a teenager. It was really fun to explore their discography. Now I will think of Itagaki too (I didn't know this). Thanks AnonRip legend. You will be missed, specially in this moment that pushing agendas is more important than make games fun.
Play Xtreme Volleyball in his honor. Rest in peace, king.
>>12105006No one talk about the reboot.
>>12102131oatagaki
>>12102136I deeply respect his musou opinion
>>12104031here's the web archive link to the interview:https://web.archive.org/web/20051101214957/http://www.1up.com/do/feature?cId=3140456The specific exchange is on page 4. Quoted here:[Following previous question was about which action games he recognizes and respects]>1UP: I'm surprised you rate DMC3 as one of your choices.>TI: You know, just looking at it I mean. I haven't actually played it. By the way, I met the DMC3 director at E3 last year. While I was out drinking at some bar, this Japanese guy comes wading through the crowd up to me, and he says, "You're Itagaki-san, aren't you?" Pretty outgoing for a Japanese guy, wouldn't you say? Anyway, so I say, "Yes, I am. Who the hell are you?" Yeah, there were two of them there then. I remember. I have a great memory [laughs].>So, he says, "I am the director of Devil May Cry 3; pleased to meet you!" and I said, "Pleased about what, dumbass!" I was drunk at the time, after all. He was young, so I slapped him on the back and said, "You just work hard so that one day people will say 'Team NINJA in the East [Tokyo], Capcom in the West [Osaka]'." The product of his labor after that little pep talk was DMC3. It got decent reviews here in Japan, and I think he did pretty well for a young guy. If he's lucky, he might make something even better next time.Whole interview is worth reading, he has an interesting way of looking at things. Even I forgot how fucking brazen he was in this exchange. What a lovable bastard. He will be missed.
>>12103976Jesus fuck, what a state of depression when you're just watching Armageddon over and over again.
>>12105245he looks a lot like tommy wiseau

>>12103823>Because /vr/ isn't a bastion of retarded posters spamming the same thread en masselol lmao
I'm glad his final work was Devil's Turd. That'd be like if Mikami dropped dead after shitting out PN03, or Kamiya dropped dead after shitting out RE0.
>>12106052Devil’s Third deluxe edition one day
>>12106052Luminous Productions last games far worse
How do so many influential Japanese artists die young? Is it just more noticeable because we know who they are?
>>12106152They all smoke like chimneys
>>12106152He was 58.Van Gogh died at 37 for reference.
>>12106157Who died at 85?
>>12106152>Is it just more noticeable because we know who they are?Yes, my dad died at 57. Shit happens, human bodies are frail, enjoy life.
>>12103606Make them, fagboy.
Dead Or Alive 3 is the greatest retro 3D fighting game.
>>12106581Gorgeous graphic textures
He looks like a native american.
>>12106872Bros got jōmon blood coursing in his vein.
>>12102098Thank you Itagaki
>>12106581Looks like something you'd see in a 3D Mark 2001 or something
>>12106581Genuinely more visually appealing than UE5 games
>>12105415kek
F for a real one
>>12102406>bad fashion decisionsHe wore sunglasses since young age, because he had some cornea illness or something, where he literally couldn't stand looking at any light (artificial or natural). Him without sunglasses is extremely end-of-life decision, clearly. He didn't care anymore, tackled it head-on. There was never any "bad fashion" in what he was wearing. It was protection.
>>12102691DoA literally was developed before Tekken.And Itagaki is Harada's senpai and teacher, literally his mentor and taught him nearly everything in game dev. Itagaki also playes Tekken VERY well and beat the living shit out of Harada in his own games, specifically so Tekken 2, 3, 5, and TTT. This been mentioned by Harada himself, in the past, it was recorded in annals of history. Harada was more normie-successful, but Itagaki was just better.
>>12103736Best game to any old
>>12102321>>12103743For me it's Tina, though I also mained Helena since DoA 2 Dreamcast days.
Does anyone know any Russian language here, can anyone translate what this d00d speaks of Itagaki (apparently)?
>FGC bros...not like this...why...WHY the best always go away the first? Why must I witness all the legends perish and burn out right in front of my eyes, unable to do anything or help in any way? I've been a fighting game player since 1994 and evolved into a professional tourney fighter in 1998, participating in hundreds of tournaments, events, and championships, winning small and big alike, ever since. Through my hands literal several hundred of different fighting games went through, on several dozen of different platforms. And yet I can do nothing to help my FGC senpais, my admired idols. I can only stand/sit still and watch as they disappear. Why must we as a global FGC suffer so? Why?>it hurts so fucking much>but I will not cry>devil may cry>but not me>for him>for ushttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e6KumZk8Tsshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oth2ICQ0LMIhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y64hcT6iuiM
Harada was reportedly so shook by the news of his senpai's and teacher's passing, that he postponed any new developments for several months. Cuckken is cooked.
Fun fact: despite first Tekken coming out before first DoA, development of first DoA game actually started much earlier then first Tekken's, and Katsuhiro Harada is actually Itagaki's pupil, Itagaki is Harada's senior, senpai, and taught Harada almost everything he knows as a video game developer and project director/lead. Harada and Tekken are in eternal debt to Itagaki forever.
>>12107936sauce?
>>12108013He mentioned it in one of the G4 interviews, back in the days. There's a fuckton of them, so I can't say which exact one.
>>12106152chainsmoking and overworking aren't good for you. That said, yeah, sometimes people just die young. And sometimes there's no reason. You gotta live every day mang. You'll just waste your time away if you spend it looking for an answer for stuff like this.
>>12108005based and redpilled
>>12107997Fun fact: NG1 was voted as GameCube exclusive.
>>12108157The what?
Why does no other fighting game feel as good as DoA?>Street Fighterfloaty>Mortal KombatWeird inconsistent physics that feels like you're magnetically snapping at random>Virtua Fighter, TekkenPretty good but nowhere near as nice as DoA. Dead or Alive just feels fucking good, it's honestly sex.
>>12108167>MK>physicsthe what
>>12108167Tekken was developed completely from scratch, no prior development knowledge, it's engine is fully in-house built unique IP thing. Besides, arcade hardware it used and also PSOne's hardware was worse than what Sega and Saturn were providing at the time. Saturn is technically more capable sheer hardware-wise than PSOne.First DoA, on the other hand, was developed for Sega arcade hardware, and for Saturn initially, and it had Itagaki's personal experience of dealing with Virtua Fighter as he was fiddling with AM1 boards at the time, when he started working at Tecmo.It was extremely optimized for Sega's hardware, thus. It's the core prime reason why Itagaki completely rightfully so deemed Saturn version of DoA much better than PSOne's port, sheer performance-wise. It had higher FPS, smoother animations, etc.The Ultimate DoA remaster is based on Saturn's version, for this reason. And DoA 2's Ultimate remaster is Dreamcast's version + Hardcore additions from PS 2, a mixture of both. Dreamcast original port always ran better than PS 2's. Sega DOES.
>>12108178>Saturn is technically more capable sheer hardware-wise than PSOne.No
>>12108203It literally has more horse power,more juice, uneducated dumbass. The issue is that documentation was shit and not many developers managed to fully utilize everything that the console provided, even internal Sega's teams.
>>12108228>It literally has more horse power,more juiceIt's got more horsepower in the sense that four mules have more horsepower than a single stallion. But who will run a lap quicker, the four mules or the one stallion?
>>12102098Always sad to hear somone talented died of the old school.F from the Spectrum fans
>>12108232>what is modern multicore architecture
>>12108160The best purple console.
>>12108321No, I'm asking about "NG1".
>>121083433D revamped of NES classic
>>12108656The WHATThey did WHATNo fucking wayNo they DID NOT
>>12108249Something that bears no resemblance to the Saturn. None at all. You don't understand computer enough if you're arguing for the contrary.
>>12108698Literally unironically kys yourself, lamer.I've built my very first own PC custom configuration completely from scratch when you weren't even been born yet. And I've been using computers since 1987.
>58Uhhh, elephant in the room bros…
>>12102098How can he handle Castlevania: Lords of Shadow 2?
>>12102098That's pretty young. What was his Yakuza status?
>>12108167>Street Fighter>floatyNah.>Mortal Kombat>Weird inconsistent physicsNah.>Virtua Fighter, TekkenVF is asswater. Tekken is just okay, but I wouldn't place DOA above it.>>12108249>what is modern multicore architectureA miserable little pile of buzzwords, like most of Sega's marketing blitzes.
>>12109309Newfag nigger you are.
>>12107957>For me this is a very big loss and shock, almost a personal tragedy, since Itagaki, his speaking mannerisms, behavior, and attitude towards people, in particular zero tolerance towards hypocrites of any kind, practically developed myself into the one I am today. He was one of my idols, my life "role model", you can say.>And this is despite the fact that Dead or Alice as a fighting franchise in general has never became my main discipline, I played DoA from time to time, even participated in around a dozen of tournaments (won 2nd place in one them, in Krasnodar in 2014, it was a DoA 5 Ultimate on PS 3 tourney) since 2002, but I have never became a real pro in it. I'm just not a fan of the graphical style specifically and character design, and the series plot in general has always annoyed me, despite thinking of fighting as top class, one of the best in genre by default since at least from DoA 2 (in some regard even since the very first one). The direct competitor to Virtua Fighter (which I am a master since VF 3 TB on Dreamcast).
>>12109339Show Ultimate remaster comparison.
>>12109364Tanks, this works I guess.
NGB is such a tight game. Even the clunky Indiana Jones sixth generation puzzles don't bring the game down. But the non-retro NG3 with its godawful QTEs and awful gimmick bosses kill my mood.
>>12108178The only powerful console from Sega was, unironically, the Mega Drive.
>>12104071Sigma 1 is a closeted gay man with his gay ass bloom, gay new enemies, and wimpy removal of puzzles and wack loading mid-stage.
>>12109390Literally off yourself. You know nothing of Saturn's or Dreamcast's hardware, capabilities, and powers. Dreamcast was de facto very first home console that had ports which were BETTER than it's arcade counterparts, because it had OIT (order independent transparency) and other effects which Naomi lacked initially, and also Dreamcast is technically capable of outputting video resolution signal of up to 720p, which specific cables, which is fucking wild for a 1998 console hardware. Only PS 2 was able to outmatch it many years later, and even PS 2 had less than a dozen late-years games made which were actually able to render honest proper 1080i with component cables (Gran Turismo 4, Metal Gear Snake Eater Subsistence, Valkyrie Profile 2, Nebula Echo Night, and couple others), usually operating no higher than at 480p.

>>12110007Lamer.
>>12102136Man what he said about the Dynasty Warrior games is spot on.
>>12102298His last words sadden me. Doesn't sound like he was a happy man. I hope his family and friends are well consoled.
>>12102916>dealing with a south african and cryptards vs not dealing with a thatDamn anon I wonder
>>12102098his games were literally the only games on xbox i was jealous of not being able to play since i only had the other two consoles. i did like DOA2 a lot since it was on ps2 at least.
>>12110418>dealing with a south AfricanNo one should ever deal with Ishiwatari after that:

>>12110794I'm shocked this hasn't been posted yet.https://imgur.com/a/EdJcJSUHarada accounting all his history with Itagaki. It's an entertaining read.
>>12110821Post his latest one, faggot. Not this stale as fuck small talk shit. Harada was reportedly so shook by the news of his senpai's and teacher's passing, that he postponed any new development progress pipelines for several months. Cuckken is cooked.

>>12110836Last word's yours if you want it.
>>12110821Why the warning?
>>12110821Nice. One of his colleagues is drunk and wants to talk about spicey workplace drama. Of Mr. Itagaki himself, the details of his death being due to "a very serious illness" seem vague. Is disclosing the details ofnsomeones death considered private in Japanese culture?>Pic rel/ An article I found about Itagaki's fin wordshttps://www.the-sun.com/tech/15357615/tomonobu-itagaki-dead-or-alive-ninja-gaiden-final-message/
Ahh who cares about gossip. The guy made a bunch of great games.. heres from my personal collection.
Here's a fun thing for DoA3. Its an official xbox magazine booster disk. The guy at electronics boutique talked me into a subscription to the magazine. They practically gave away magazine subscriptions back then. Anyway, this booster disk you could install a bonus costum pack. The most notable costumes in the pack were the short skirt outfits for Kasumi and Ayane. Once installed lots of panty flashing high kicks ensued.. Great stuff.
I thank him for creating my wife
