I guess that I, along with many other gamers around the world, when I assumed that the footage shown during Nintendo’s E3 press conference yesterday indicated that Ninja Gaiden 3 was headed to the Nintendo Wii U. Instead of porting the already-in-development Ninja Gaiden 3, Tecmo Koei has stated that the Ninja Gaiden title shown during the video montage is in fact an a new version of the game that is being developed exclusively for Nintendo’s new console. The game will be entitled Ninja Gaiden 3: Razor’s Edge and will be a “new” title in itself.

It will be interesting to see just how different the Wii U version of the game is from its 360 / PS3 counterparts...
