 Slash-tastic July 7, 2008
This game was so fast-paced it made my heart race at times. the boss battles are intimidating but surprisingly simple to adapt to. There are few ARGH! moments, which I think no good game can go without, but on the normal difficulty setting it was pretty quick to play through without being boring or monotonous. I have yet to try the subsequent difficulty modes (Head Ninja, Master Ninja, and finally Master Kunoichi to play as Momiji) as I am an adult with a stupid full time job (children, take heed) but I have heard tales of the fury these can incite in hardcore players. Probably similar to the original series on the NES. At any rate, HIGHLY recommended. Try not to stab your stylus through your touch-screen.

This game was fun for me to play. I have been waiting for a game like this since I got a DS.
Ultimately, its a game where you run around and kill bad guys by slashing them up. Not having played many of the other Ninja Gaiden games, I can't compare.
The gameplay is very, very similar to God Of War on the Sony systems: you run around and slash, and you get some super powers as the game progresses. However, there are no puzzles to solve.
To some reviews that pointed out drawbacks, they are true, and thus this isn't a five star game. You do just hack and slash, and it can get a bit repetitive (but I do think that its fun with the stylus). Also, a lot of the gameplay scenes are not real 3d.
All that said, a game like this on the DS is long overdue, and I'm glad I have a copy.
NInja Gaiden on the DS, need I say more? April 16, 2008

Ok yes i need to say more because the game is awesome. I love seeing games on the DS that arn't nintendogs or other cutsy games. You run around as Ryu killing ninjas and some truly gruling boss battles( at the highest difficulty). Please just buy this game, so Nintendo makes more games for mature audiences.

The music is great, The graphics are good. The game play itself is boring, and I've finished it twice with different difficulty levels just to make sure. Basically, for much of the game, you walk into a room where you have to defeat a group of enemies that reconstitute ad nauseum. You can either mash keys, or scribble the stylus until the baddies disappear. It's even more silly when you're in the furthest portion of some room with depth perspective, fighting 3 enemies, and scribbling over a space of a square centimeter. There's only one small portion of this game where the environment is rendered in 3-D, not counting the bosses. Wasn't the idea behind the DS for 3D gaming? Is Metroid Prime Hunter the only thing out there?
