Looks like someone on youtube, named Mitzos SirReal, finished an ng2 challenge run with some tough restrictions.

It's pretty cool to see. He is also currently doing a no damage run too!

the quality is so potato on these old videos, true classics

When I go to pickup something, I usually get this: https://i.imgur.com/fpvkpLA.png Is there a setting that makes it so I don't get interrupted and only get the small notification instead? https://i.imgur.com/b1OgnGJ.png Is this a region only thing that doesn't apply to the North American version of ...

... using a TAS. this is something that takes Karma Runs to the next level even.

I'm not aware of methods of TASing a ps3 game. How would you achieve this considering how early and slow the ps3 emulator is.

... resisting and bought all the DLC costumes. Tribal spirit is cool and all but Fiend Ryu #2 is where it's at now.

Well done indepth analysis of ng2 on xbox one

DO subweapon UTs count against a No UT challenge? I mean using UTs from the bow, incendiary, windmill shuriken.

Ng3re is now available which cements the xbone's status as the Ninja Gaiden machine. https://twitter.com/teamninjastudio/status/1124024747073916930?s=21 While I'm not a fan of ng3re it's cool that Team Ninja has shown NG isn't completely ignored. I'm just going to make a wild guess that the xbox 4 w...

This has to be the worst death that I've seen in ng2

No framerate slowdown on staircase!

I must have impressed someone at microsoft with all my ninja gaiden streams. First ngb gets its cover art added to twitch and now ng2 is backwards compatible after I started doing all those ng2 challenge runs :thumb: https://www.gamespot.com/articles/ninja-gaiden-2-joins-xbox-one-backwards-compatibl...

Found a new glitch in the game. It's possible for an enemy who's been thrown into a wall to knock Ryu and make him clip through stuff. - I do a guillotine throw into a rocket soldier near the sewer cover and his knockback (and possibly the gunfire) pushes Ryu down. - This is the entry way into Aquad...

Finally finished the run! Alma was the true test of the challenge in the end. Everything else was pretty manageable.

Xbox One Nicchae is pretty much Alma 3.0 at this point, I don't remember her being this projectile happy or her orbs tracking so well on xb360

Master Ninja Dragon Sword only No UT No Ninpo No Potions No Izuna Drop challenge Decided to do a challenge run. Overall the run isn't as bad as I expected. Only 2 fiend challenges I'm not doing are the stadium and great bridge. The best parts of the run was fighting Alma with the given restrictions...

I do miss not having Smoke Bombs, the Lunar, the ability to charge, and being able to rotate the camera.

And good recovery frames cancels, that drove me nuts since I've put so much time into ngb

Wow nice loop on AA, I learned something new. Seems like a lot of hoops to jump through just to end up with some input lag though.

It's something for tutorial/challenge streams, I wouldn't do it on my serious no fun allowed speedruns.

Just a controller preference

Finally got my xb360 controller working on original xbox. You really have to jump thru some hoops to get it working. Also even got a controller input overlay working for it Youtube video, ng04 awakened alma loop :thumb: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2P4WIhfOm-o The adapter chain is: Xbox 360 wirel...

Inspired by jtb's efforts for cataloguing ngb info. I went ahead and did some for ng2004 and hurricane pack 1.

Still wish you would do some commentary. It would interesting to hear your approach on the run.

I'll have to work on that if I want to submit a master ninja run to SGDQ. There are plenty of safe strats and back up options to easily beat mn.

Found this by accident while looking fo new MN strats, pretty hard to pull off. I can't find a way for this to be consistent. https://i.imgur.com/9LtLfoc.png https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mdz2f2iG4e0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mdz2f2iG4e0 How to do: Windpath and FS at the right time, not too ...

Yes, the aura did connect with her. Never heard of a firewheels strat for Alma.

Once I get more free time then I'll do proper ninja science on Alma and get some recorded runs on her for original xbox and xbone.
