GDC 08: Ninja Gaiden DS demo available at Nintendo booth

It’s been a while since we last heard about Tomonobu Itagaki‘s upcoming epic for the Nintendo DS, Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword – and in this update straight from Tecmo, we get to find out just what sort of Ninja-flavored treat will be in store for us in this year’s GDC. Find out  why you should hang around GDC even if you’re not participating. Check out all the details in the full article.

For those of us lucky enough to be heading to this year’s Game Developer’s Conference (GDC) in San Francisco, here’s some very good news: Tecmo has just announced that a demo of its highly-anticipated slasher for the Nintendo DS, Ninja Gaiden: Dragon Sword, will be available for download at Nintendo’s own booth on Wednesday, February 20. Awesome.

No specifics yet on what sort of demo it will be – if it’s just going to be a level or two, or even just a boss fight. But if the game’s anything to go by, any piece of the pie – more so one that’s entirely free of charge – then it would definitely be anything but delicious. Updates as we get them, and here’s hoping that the signal’s strong enough for those outside GDC 2008 to be able to download it too.
