nonexistinghero posted...MS merely published the Ninja Gaiden games, not fund them. Aside from that, Sigma 2 would have never existed if Itagaki didn't leave Tecmo. And look what happened, the new Team Ninja hasn't made a game as good as NG2 since.
Very true. I was willing to give Hayashi and whoever stayed with Team NINJA the benefit of the doubt because Hayashi was actually more involved in Dragon Sword then itagaki was. Itagaki only oversaw development. Obviously overseeing development (even to a small extent) was the reason it was good.
Not just Team NINJA, Tecmo as a whole now resides at Valhalla.
