It may not sound like it at first, but Ninja Gaiden for the NES is the perfect title to get an anime redo.  The game was one of the first to really use cut-scenes to tell a story within what was otherwise a general action platformer.  This update is certainly stylish and adds the right amount of new while keeping the iconic shots from the original still in there.  It would be neat to see the entire game’s story remade this way.  If it has been, pass the info along below.
