Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword is a video game released for the Nintendo DS featuring the Dragon Ninja, Ryu Hayabusa as the main protagonist. The game is the first portable video game title in the series to be developed by Team Ninja. The game is an Action-Adventure title presented in a 3rd person, pseudo-3d manner, meaning that all the game-models are rendered in full 3D but the world the player travels around in is pre-rendered. The camera is set in an isometric viewpoint and it will pan, following the player while he/she is discovering more of the pre-rendered backgrounds. The ideal orientation of the Nintendo DS while playing the game is holding it sideways, like in Hotel Dusk: Room 215 and Brain Age. The left screen shows the area map while the right screen shows the main gameplay when set for right handed play, and reverse when set for left handed play.

The game's gameplay will be heavily dependent on the stylus, similar to The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. For example: By tapping the screen Ryu will throw one of his shurikens; by tapping and holding Ryu will run to the desired location; by drawing a horizontal line on an enemy Ryu will do a horizontal slash with his sword; by drawing a vertical line he will do a vertical slash; and by drawing up on the screen he will jump.

Use of Ryu's Ninpo magic will be activated by tapping an icon on the touch screen; this will bring up the outline of a Sanskrit letter to be traced with the stylus.[3] Successfully tracing the letter will activate the appropriate magic.

There are also some secret attacks, one being a move where you slide the stylus back and forth on Ryu, which results in an essence forming under him, which grows more powerful the longer you hold the stylus on the screen (it is no longer necessary to slide the stylus after the essence forms) and becomes red when competely charged. If the stylus is lifted from the screen Ryu will jump out to where the stylus was lifted from, many Oval-Shaped blades of the essence following. A minimum charge takes around 1 second from the Essence's forming, and a complete charge takes around 4 seconds.

These functions can be combined. Ryu will, for example, be able to jump and throw his shurikens while in mid-air. All the buttons on the Nintendo DS except for Start and Select will be used for blocking enemy attacks.

A playable demo of the game is downloadable from the DS Download Station volume 7.

Anyone else waiting? ;D (Where are you Warren303?)

 

Finally someone posts in the empty board! Yes I've been waiting for this ages ever since that demo came out.

 

http://www.filefactory.com/file/273883/

Cheers guys!

 

I think I love you.

 

For those who do not understand how to extract it:
First, extract the NINJA GAIDEN folder. Then, open it, and open the xpa.ngds.rar file.
Extract xpa.ngds.nds, and it will automatically use the other rar files to create one big file. That's the game file you need!

Sorry if still not clear

 

Yep thanks dude! I already know but thanks for the tutorial again I finally can feast my eyes on this!

 

Have fun playing guys!

 

Yep my download percentage is now 77 % ;D

It sure is going to take up a lot of space on my 2 GB R4 micro SD Card... :

 

for this kind of games I really don't mind how much space they need

 

Yeah that is true! I just got rid of all my less important games to fit this one in! Im on Chap2 right now ;D

 

i'm happy for ninja gaiden, but i don't think this has anything to do with emulation.

 

Well kind of, because it was a rom that was coming out, so roms are pretty close to emulation. Plus, no one posts on these boards.

 

No it barely has anything to do with emulation, other than the fact you can emulate roms.

 

i want somebody to reply asking how they can emulate this on the pc

 

You can't get Dragon Sword to load textures on no$gba at the moment, not sure if it works properly on iDeaS.

 

thanks man for the news, i tried the game on r4 and it's really awesome.
for emulation on PC, i advise using No$gba

 

ninja gaiden's rules

 

I cant Play Ninja Gaiden On da DS..

The Game doesnt looks good..

 

aww.... i'd love to try ninja gaiden but its filesize is too darn big

 

You drunk or something?


I actually have it-like resident evil it uses prerendered backgrounds, and uses the rest for the awsome graphics!


The gameplay seems a bit random with the touch slashing, but otherwise it's fun.



Also-I wouldn't reccomend a emulator to even try this-if you want to give max damage you may need a real ds-or one of those hand tablets or something...

Have you got a slow net speed as well?


Lol, I'm downloading resident evil outbreak on 6kbs-it's been 4 months now-95 percent-just be patient
