    I was looking for a new game to soak up the coming semester break here, and I was thinking about a break from the old, usual games that I play like FPS's and stuff..and then I saw this at GameSpot.

    Has anybody tried it yet? I saw some videos and man, it's so cute (coming from a 20-year-old guy that sound meh) and I think it fits my criteria!! Hahaha I'm thinking the last time I got fascinated with a game aimed towards kids was like with i-ninja or something (PS2) and a PC game I already forgot lol.

    Do you think it wouldn't look nice for a guy like me playing that game? Or does someone share the same sentiment as me?

    PS I opened this thread to actually rave about the game..so get hooked to it like me! lol joke

    I started MN today.
    It's a lot of fun once you get past the training and stuff at the start.

    It kinda reminds me of the old PSX/PS2 platformers, like Spyro and Crash.
    Oh, and the voice acting is hilariously bad xD

    I have heard a lot of good things about this game, so I think you should try it! It is actually Denmark (I come from Denmark :p) that made the game! =D.

    .. But it's fail that the game isn't available in danish language!!

    Bad enough that you'd love it because of that!! (ni-ni-ni-ni-ni-ninja!!!) lol

    I do hope there would be sequels to this, although I haven't finished it yet. :D

    Denmark? really? Wow, and they did a great job making it look and sound authentic jappy! Haha

    It was in the demo, so I can't see why not.
    I'm using a retail version, and the 360 Wired Controller. Works flawlessly, even has the button icons if it's plugged in.

    Yup. It's Eidos who made it, and they are also the creators of the Hitman series :)

    ninja ninja ninja!!1

    I am playing the Wii version, good game. I have replayed the I think 5th stage like 5 times now because it has 2 shrines and I cant find the flower for the first one near the waterfall. I refuse to go further in the game without finding it.

    Though I have a large handfull of PC games taking up my time right now so mini ninja's kinda got put on the back burner.

    I would get this as a wii game but dont think I would get it as a PC game, even though for PC the graphics are better. It just feels more "console like" and there have not been any wii games like this in a long while.

    I think the anemone (isn't that a sea creature whatever? lol) for the waterfall shrine is a bit off to the area of the shrine..haha I remember going down the waterfall, and then up again, and then OH! I think it's by one of the riverbanks of the top side of the falls. I think lol. Hehe it's hard to spot since it's sunset so the flower's a deep orange.

    I haven't got a Wii, but how does the controls work there? Well, it's enough fun as it is so I'll be thinking the Wii one's gotta be a lot more whoop! lol
