Looks boring as fuck. Gameloft pretty much has the brick breaking games on mobile all sewn up.

Itagaki probably needs more financing to help him finish Devil's Third. So he's hoping for some quick Flappy Bird style success to bring in the monies. Maybe.

Well...it's Itagaki, haven't played any game of his since classic Ninja Gaiden 2. So...I'll get it if I can.
 
This is not what we wanted, someone.. hold me. ;-;

And someone beat the shit out of that person responsible for those promotion screens!
 
Is this actually legit, and not just someone making shit up? Because that happens a lot on the Play app store.
 
The fuck? THE FUCK???

Where in the hell is Devil's Third and haven't MS or Sony got him working on a Ninja Gaiden successor?

This is hell. I'm in the hell. That's the only way to explain this.
 
I'm pretty sure this is some sort of joke, screens look shady as hell.

The first stage is denial.

It would be quite brazen of them to put out a press release while lying.

I think it's legit. It's covered by Japanese press, and Regrounds has released a smartphone game before this - Zalive. It was developed by Kazuki Motosa, an ex-Team Ninja animator. It's probably a small dev comprised of people who know Itagaki personally and they just asked him for some design help on this.

I doubt 4Gamer would cover the game without knowing if it's a fake or not. :P
 
Not sure what is more sad. The fact that he's working on an Arkanoid clone or the fact that it doesn't even look like a good Arkanoid clone. lol
 
well at least it A: Released and B: No-one lost their home on it (I hope)

so, yknow, step up for itagaki

Ha ha ha, wow. You should've added those links to the OP. There's so much weird crap going in mobile games I wouldn't have been surprised if this was fake.
