Taito Announces Legend Of Kage 2 For NDS

One of Elder Matsu's personal retro favorites is set for its first true sequel more than 20 years after its original release. That's right. Taito has just announced Legend of Kage 2, the sequel to the arcade and NES classic of the same name, which can now be played on the Wii's Virtual Console. This ninja action title is set for a February 2008 release.

In Legend of Kage 2, you can choose between a male ninja named Kage or a female ninja named Chihiro. Presumably, Kage and Chihiro will employ different types of ninjutsu, or ninja powers, and have different abilities.

As is obvious from the screen shots below, the action will take place simultaneously on both the top and bottom screens. And we are sure to expect lots of flying ninja battle action reminiscent of scenes from Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. Ninjas are go!
