Why doesn't Itagaki announce Ninja Gaiden 2 already?

I keep hearing all this talk about Sigma when I want the news we're all waiting for. That of the TRUE sequel. This is driving me nuts.

I feel your pain.

Really can't wait for it, luckily I don't have a 360 yet so I get some extra months to save some money for it.

Who knows maybe there will even be a price drop :)

It's driving me nuts that the GTAIV trailer is still not out.

And NG2 is probably already in development, they may be waiting for E3 to announce it.

maybe at E3? Anyways, they'll see NGS performance (in terms of copies sold) Then they will announce for the 360 and ps3... Maybe that's the reason...

maybe they are waiting for sigma to come out and see if it does well or not. Then they might decide NG 2 for both PS3 and 360.

Geez, give the man time. He only started working on NG2 as he wrapped up the production of DoAX2 he can't have anything worth showing just yet. (Yes it's already confirmed he's working on NG2... unless he changed his mind but that's unlikely).

Because they are waiting to see how PS3 does as far as sales before they anounce it. This way they will decide if it's going multiplat or not.

.... way to go and ignore my post, Itagaki doesn't care about the PS3 at all, Ninja Gaiden Sigma has nothing to do with him and is not an experiment as some people like to think. NGS is being made because one of the younger devs at team ninja thought it would be a good idea so more people could experience NG. If NG2 goes to PS3, I guarantee Itagaki won't be involved.

What makes them certain ? Go to 1up and check Itagaki's interviews.

he somewhat confirmed it in the 1up interview, but there has been no "official" announcment as of yet. Still I expect we'll see it at E3 since that's when they are planning to do it.

Thank you, it really annoys me when people claim that TN is using NGS to see if they want to make NG2 multiplat. The facts are in that interview.

Why does everyone have this crazy idea NG2 is going multiplatform. Team Ninja announced 5 EXCLUSIVES, count them 5 for X360. 2 of them are out and everyone knows NG2 will be one of the games. If PS3 gets it, then it will be way down the line. NG is 3 years old and NGB is 1 1/2 years old already. NGS is NGB with spruced up graphics couple of add ons to milk a dead horse.

It takes time to put together an all female programming team that will show up for work in bikinis.

My guess is because he's scared sh*tless about trying to top the first.
