On the eve of Ninja Gaiden 4’s launch, the eccentric game developer who revived the franchise and created the Dead or Alive franchise has sadly passed on. What a sad month to lose key figures in popular culture. :(

RIP and thank you for your contributions to gaming, Tomonobu Itagaki-san 🙏🏻

The latest Capcom Spotlight was pretty pointless and just served as a reminder that we’re getting new titles… And releasing separate videos for SF6 and RE9 just makes it jarring.
