"It seems like we made a Japanese hamburger for the West. Maybe as a Japanese developer, we need to make good Japanese food... and that’s what people are wanting from a Japanese developer. The biggest thing for us, when you come here to LA, there’s always going to be Japanese food. There’s always going to be Japanese restaurants. And that’s us. Maybe if the industry is going for that Hollywood blockbuster direction, we can offer something that's different. It’s not like everybody wants to see Transformers every day." - Team Ninja head Yosuke Hayashi

I haven't played Ninja Gaiden III yet, but it's clear that many critics and gamers weren't too pleased with the title. What will Team Ninja do from here on out?

"gameplay will be first... We’re not going to offer burgers anymore, but we’re going to offer you damn good sushi."
