News: Use the skills of the ninja in a video game for real.
EA has announced they've partnered with Nunchuck Games to co-publish the "ninja party game" Ninja Reflex to the Wii and DS next March. The game will be developed by Sanzaru Games.
Like Brain Age for your muscles, Ninja Reflex will "test gamers' reflexes and measure their reaction times with millisecond precision." Completing challenges will evnetually allow the player to earn a black belt from their Sensei. Players can also act out their own ninja battles with a four-player mode. Man, if people thought flying Wiimotes was a problem before...
Nunchuck Games was founded in 2006 by former Z-Axis head David Luntz and Ninja Reflex will be their first project. Naturally, they're very excited about the possibilities.
УNinja Reflex channels the accessible multiplayer fun of Wii Sports and the self-improvement aspect of Brain Age into a martial arts universe that is ideally suited for the Wii and Nintendo DS,Ф said David Luntz, President and CEO of Nunchuck Games. УNunchuck Games is thrilled to team up with EA Partners to bring Ninja Reflex to gamers everywhere.Ф
We'll have more on Ninja Reflex soon.
