    Default Little Ninja be next Dreamcast title

    The makers of Wind and Water: Puzzle Battle are working on a new project. Looks like a kiddy version of Ninja Gaiden. I like the backrounds though.

    Funny how I thought that this looks like a mature, modern version of Ninja Gaiden. Mature as in serious, professional; a game of fine first-class pixel art, made for people that enjoy this type of old-school graphics.
    The Mega Drive was far inferior to the NES in terms of diffusion rate and sales in the Japanese market, though there were ardent Sega users. But in the US and Europe, we knew Sega could challenge Nintendo. We aimed at dominating those markets, hiring experienced staff for our overseas department in Japan, and revitalising Sega of America and the ailing Virgin group in Europe.

    Then we set about developing killer games.

    Don't get me wrong I really like the way the game is being developed. I just said "kiddy" because the Ninja character looks "cute" I guess but Im sure its meant to be like that.

    They say it may not be released for the DC though which is kind of heartbreaking.

    Hi wertigon,

    Well, to tell the truth, you can’t call it a “port” yet since we don’t know for what consoles it will be released!

    But in any case, we’ll definitely think about it as soon as we have a Pandora on our hands. Don’t worry, we’ll try to keep things as portable as possible for GP2X/WIZ, Pandora, and Dreamcast.

    One question at a time!

    We’re not sure when it’ll be released as this is just starting! The game will have this look through a CRT TV (as it is intended for 240p). Handheld (versions) will look pixel perfect.

    Again, we’re not sure, but Dreamcast is very possible

    Thanks for the nice comments and interest!

    YuanHao has stated previously
    “The game will run on Dreamcast, Don’t worry about it, the thing is will it be released on Dreamcast?”

    ^ This is where I got it.

    Hm, I guess it depends on how good the conditions are for their publishing contract with either redspotgames or GOAT, or if some other publisher wants the game exclusive on Pandora or something like that.
