“We’re looking forward to merging Ninja Gaiden 3 gameplay and visuals with Dragon Sword touch commands,”…”That’s where we’re thinking now. Honestly, we’re just playing with it, so it might change–that’s the focus right now.”

I think Ninja Gaiden is one console game that could really benefit from touch commands. Unlike the DS version, the Wii U Ninja Gaiden will be extremely violent.

“You’ll notice sequences when time slows down, the camera will zoom in. That’s the representation of the sword going into the body, getting caught in the bones and the muscles of the enemy, and you have to really push through the meat of the body to finish the cut. We call that steel on bone.”
