R.I.P. Tomonubu Itagaki

(Creator of the Dead or Alive Fighting games and giving us the amazing 2003 Ninja Gaiden Reboot)

Passed away at Age 58. Your games were seen at first as nothing but fan service/style over substance. But we know that wasn't true.

The real fans knew they were some of the most well made fighting games with groundbreaking graphics and memorable characters and yes were silly and nonsensical....but were really fun titles that competed with Tekken and Virtua Fighter.

Thank you for also taking a 80s Arcade classic/NES platformer and turning it into a tough as nails but really rewarding M-Rated hack n' slash that was amazing, of course I'm talking Ninja Gaiden ☺

Thanks 4 the awesome games and memories you absolute legend. 😢

R.I.P Tomonobu Itagaki 🪽 His last game he worked on was dead or alive 4 for the Xbox 360. I enjoyed all the dead or alive games he worked on from DOA 1-5. (Never played the extreme volleyball 🏐 games btw) And he made one of the best if not the BEST 3D Fighting games I ever played throughout these years. I wonder where the DOA series is gonna be up till now
