Yeah, but the real problem is who's buying these games? For 20 bucks, you can buy games like Resident Evil 8, or for even better comparsion Ghost Runner these days. I really don't see this going down as a good deal compared to games on that level of technicality and content. It's a no contest, it could work if they would throw out these retro games for under 10$ , but 20$ and above is just way too much to ask for games in this 2d retro style...
@@siketjoseph9211this is $20 new and that’s not unreasonable whatsoever imo. If you’re into hard platformers most of your options are going to be indie devs as this isn’t the “mainstream” type of game anymore unfortunately. Plus, indie devs typically make games they’re passionate about and that leads to a very well polished game that has a lot of love put into it. It’s nice to be able to support small studios as well
@@GMOTP5738 Only you can unlock the secrets to your clan's ancient powers in Cyber Shadow, the thrilling new Ninja Action game from Mechanical Head Studios AND YACHT CLUB GAMES - creators of Shovel Knight. Pulled straight from the description you mongoloid. The fact you have the audacity to call me a moron when you missed something right in front of you is baffling.
They may not had develped the game from the ground up, but I feel like Yacht Games as a publisher would at least give the Mechanical Head team some direction to ensure the game meets their standards Sorry for my bad English. I'm Brazilian
The developer wanted a game with the level design as Mario; the action of Ninja Gaiden; the enemies of Contra; and a dark theme like Batman. To that guy I say Thank You and hope we have a release date soon cause this is a Day 1 buy for me.
I think that Ninja Gaiden, Ninja Gaiden 2, and Ninja Gaiden 3 had a threesome, and then they Ninja Gaidened the Ninja Gaiden and Ninja Ninja Gaiden Ninja (Ninja Gaiden)
Big Duke oh yeah I totally get that. Something about the aliens and robots and general art direction really reminds me of silius and Batman but some of the gameplay does definitely seem like Power Blade, Vice Project Doom, and Shatterhand.
The music is the everything of this game. This theme is so amazing that I bought the game only because the music from the trailer. "Geothermal Towers Part1", amazing, and it's now on Spotify.
Seems quite similar to The Messenger. I'm late to watch this trailer but I love The Messenger and only just heard that this exists, so I'm quite excited for it now.
people keep saying ninja gaiden but if you grew up with an NES you’d know this is much more of a Shadow of the Ninja or Shatterhand homage. I see you Yacht Club/MechanicalHead
Can't stop replaying the end of the video ^^ That song is so AMAZING !!! from 1:22 to the end, especially the drums solo at the end & each part of it perfectly put beforehand :) Just great !! It's like witnessing the songs I always had in my head when I was a child & thought I could make music but I was never enough talented to put it this awesome or have the determination to do it.
Serious Ninja Gaiden Vibes... With perhaps a hint of Metroid ... And even Shovel Knight, which is unsuprising considering Shovel Knight was published by Yacht Club Games ...
This is one incredible upgrade from the Ninja Gaiden NES games. As one of the players who actually beat the US version of NG1 for the NES, count me in. There has been no Ninja game that has bested me. Though NInja Gaiden 1 did have me cursing a lot. The run from 6-2, 6-3, and then the boss was brutal.
Well, it was fun playing you, 3DS, but I guess your time has come. Not a single Nindie game is coming for 3DS. I just wished the last 1st published game by Nintendo would be Partners in Time DX... Still gonna buy this for Switch!
This is literally The Messenger. I'm not complaining though, because I loved Shovel Knight and The Messenger. With this, Blaster Master Zero 2, The Messenger DLC, King Knight DLC and Hollow Knight Silksong, i dies are killing it. Man. I've never played so many indie games before.
That’s crazy. It’s a Metroidvania with mega-man esc rooms/levels with contra looking enemies and ninja gaiden esc core gameplay. Why didn’t someone make a game like this sooner? And the music... leave it to yacht club to make the best harmonies of our favorite games.
This should have been in the Nindies showcase to get more publicity.
It probably wasn't in the Nindies showcase because Yacht Club wanted to show it at PAX.
I KNOW RIGHT 😑😑😑😑😑
Brilliance
Well like a year too late
this didn't age well
Loving the ninja gaiden vibes with this game. ^_^
"This isn't Ninja Gaiden."
@@LegendOfMario Duh. I know that; i'm well aware. It 'does' take a lot of inspiration from it, which is a good thing.
@@NG480 r/woooosh
@@Raynnnnnn I didn't get it neither, what was the joke?
This is way more Power Blade than Ninja Gaiden.
Ninja Gaiden:
"I Love All My Chlidren.
Shine little ones, go on and be Great!"
shadow of the ninja nes not ninja gaiden
Few pieces of music truly give me goosebumps. The bit starting at 1:03 is, truly, stuff of legend.
Yess! And the visuals and sound effects makes it all come together.
Wow we need more games like this! These retro games bring me back in time to the golden age of gaming!

The Messenger, Cyber Shadow and Bushiden
Indeed
Wow, not gonna lie, this game looks pretty legit, I like the sprite work on this (same goes to the music)
Dude you're everywhere
Yacht club is the company that keeps on giving
If this games sells well they could finally afford that yacht.
Am I the only person that is dying for this soundtrack?
Stranger nope. I keep replaying the trailer to fuel my imagination. This is RIDICULOUSLY good music
Hyped only cause it's Yacht Club Games
Yep, they know their stuff
Its made by the dev mekaskull you moron it even says in the trailer lol
Same

+999
Also threre is a weird Mega man vibe there
That's the best way to describe it, thank you.
OMG!! Did Contra and Ninja Gaiden just have a baby?! Sweet!!
Looks like Metroid was video taping the escapades !?🤣
I think that Ninja Gaiden, Ninja Gaiden 2, and Ninja Gaiden 3 had a threesome, and then they Ninja Gaidened the Ninja Gaiden and Ninja Ninja Gaiden Ninja (Ninja Gaiden)
Did a baby just have a Contra and Ninja Gaiden? Sweet!!
@@podpod exactly.
the baby is The Messenger made by the same creators... this is the killer of the both
If someone dosent get this OST ripped ASAP *im throwing a temper tantrum.*
10 months and still none :(
This game looks like it was made in the 1990s
*It’s rewind time*
Will Smith....lol.
@@abel4475 I KNOW!!! 😃😃😃
"Mega Man" meets "Ninja Gaiden"!
@@abel4475 nope, they're the publisher, it was developed by mekahead
Sci-Fi The Messenger!
Oh and seriously 100% honestly, before I saw the Ninja, I thought of that. WOW
I love the influx of metroidvanias action-platformers. Nothing more satisfying in gaming than mastering these titles, for me.
Anyone else getting a sunsoft vibe? I’m specifically feeling Batman and Journey to Silius.
I thought the same thing, but it really reminds me most of Power Blade.
Big Duke oh yeah I totally get that. Something about the aliens and robots and general art direction really reminds me of silius and Batman but some of the gameplay does definitely seem like Power Blade, Vice Project Doom, and Shatterhand.
The music, like the game, is a masterpiece.
Me: oh, this looks cool.
Also me, but after watching the video: s i g n m e u p

This game looks insane. Reminds me of the old NES games I used to play, especially The Guardian Legend. That was an absolute classic
0:47 Hi there Metal Man's stage!
I am so buying this game ASAP. Looks dope!
0:50 as well :) there's a lot of good flashbacks in this trailer
Oh wow this part 1:03 looks good and sounds good, it really got me excited for what the story is going to be like.
Can't stop replaying the end of the video ^^ That song is so AMAZING !!! from 1:22 to the end, especially the drums solo at the end & each part of it perfectly put beforehand :) Just great !! It's like witnessing the songs I always had in my head when I was a child & thought I could make music but I was never enough talented to put it this awesome or have the determination to do it.
Kind of looks like a nes Batman/Ninja Gaiden mash up. Absolutely love the art style and sound track!
This game is the spiritual successor of "shadow of the ninja/blue shadow/kage" on the nes
Well since Shovel Knight is one of my favorite indies ever I guess I'll be buying this one.
Need to release this song version of Stage 1 , this is way better than the new version ! Way more hype !
I happily get Ninja Gaiden, Strider, and that Shovel Knight vibe all wrapped up into one neat little package
The music in this trailer is jamming I can legitimately see myself listening to it when I'm studying
This looks fantastic.I loved The messenger and Shovel knight.
Ive watched this everyday since it came out. i need this so badly
This looks like it could've been made by Natsume. Definitely getting this.
Seems you are pointing to Kage aka blue shadow aka Shadow of the ninja or Tokkyuu shirei solbrain (shatterhand) from Natsume.
This is clearly inspired by Shatterhand, Ninja Gaiden, and possibly Shadow of the Ninja. Not a bad combination.
don't forget Hagane since you're a ninja cyborg in that one
Serious Ninja Gaiden Vibes...
With perhaps a hint of Metroid ... And even Shovel Knight, which is unsuprising considering Shovel Knight was published by Yacht Club Games ...
A bit of shatterhand as well.
to me its like a cross between blue shadow and shatterhand
Shovel Knight was developed by YGC, Cyber Shadow was not, they only published it
As long as a game has the Yacht Club Games name on it, you're bound to have a good time. SOOOOO looking forward to this.
love this natsume game style on the sprites, like the amazing shaterhand and shadow of the ninja mixed, looks really great!
Natsume Games is an accurate reference. And everyone here is like, Ninja Gaiden and Mega Man.
Still just as incredible as the first day it came out. Instant classic.
I could see him being in a future Smash Bros title.
I'm 6 hours and a half in.
... And I'm in COMPLETE LOVE WITH IT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH, MECHANICAL HEAD STUDIOS, YACHT CLUB GAMES AND NINTENDO!
Bruhhhh!!! The Brake down !! On this Video/Music at 1:02 just slaps any other song IV head at all within this year it brings the hype so hard!!!!
Sunsoft NES Batman + NES Ninja Gaidens = This.
You picked up on that batman vibe too. Sunsoft released a gem with that game. One of my top 5 nes games that doesn't get nearly enough recognition
The same people that made Shovel Knight?! Ohhhhh god yes!
Kinda. Yach Club is publishing.
Is this Ninja Gaiden!? I have to tell my friends about this!
Ninja Gaiden Gaiden.
Cyborg Ninja Gaiden
Shadow of the Ninja on NES not Gaiden. You’ll see.
Looks well put together!! Physical release possible!
this looks alot like The Messenger but i don't care because i love the messenger and anything that looks like the messenger
The messager has to be one of my favorite games tbh
Its like the Shadow of the ninja sequel I always wanted.Looks fantastic
First The Messenger, now this? We've been blessed with the return of classic Ninja Gaiden esque games.
We have Metroidvanias. What do we call this subgenre?
@@tomsimmons7673 Ninjavanias? Ninjatroids?
I want this game! It reminds me of Vice: Project Doom, Ninja Gaiden, and Batman for the NES.
Looks like the Ninja Gaiden successor I wanted.
Hope the game has more memorable tracks like this, specially beats like at 1:03.
It's Sunsoft in 2019.
Maestro Drake I was thinking more along the lines of natsume 2019
Messenger + Shovel Knight + Megaman = perfection
So it's a cyber, "The Messenger", on steroids?
*Yespleasethankyouverymuch.*

This game bettah have a PHYSICAL COLLECTORS EDITION
1/26/21....finally a release date
Yacht club games? Never heard of em.
*THIS IS A JOKE CALM DOWN, IM INSTANTLY BUYING THIS*
**RUDE COMMENT**
*Agrees with Rude Comment because I like to argue*
Never heard of who?
*Good lord*, that music. I need a download, fast.
Mark of the Ninja vs The Messenger vs Cyber - Shadow
Don't forget Ninja Gaiden and Strider.
The song that played at the beginning is awesome.
The Thumbnail Makes it look like samus with pink hair
I think you mean metroid
@@jeff3221 no metroid is the name of the franchise
@@toniido Hahaha yeah ofc but it's also the name of the girl in the suit. It's like Mario, he's the title of his own game
@@jeff3221 based
God I just love side scrolling pixelated Ninja games!
I have such fond memories of playing this game as a kid on my NES :P
The early 90's were the best.
I don't know how many times I've watched this trailer. I'm still hyped for this game!
Oh boy, between this, The Messenger and Katana Zero, we got a lot of Ninja Gaiden love lately.
So this is why king of cards is taking so long but its a good sacrifice for this other cool game
Yacht club makes some of the few good sprite based 2d indie platformers. The genre is so cliche, but yacht truly is something special
Its made by the dev mekaskull you moron it even says in the trailer lol
for sure
Messenger who? This game looks 10x more beautiful and badass... hope it gets a physical release👍
It's like Ninja Gaiden meets Shatterhand. Looks awesome.
and Kabuki Quantum Fighter
This soundtrack is godlike
Well, it was fun playing you, 3DS, but I guess your time has come. Not a single Nindie game is coming for 3DS. I just wished the last 1st published game by Nintendo would be Partners in Time DX...
Still gonna buy this for Switch!
3DS was a good boy
Shakedown Miami?
Good lord those sprites are awesome
"Cool Ninja Gaiden-like!"
- people who've never played Power Blade, Project: VICE Doom, or Shatterhand
Big Duke thank you for reminding me Project: VICE Doom exists. That game is SO GOOD. Same goes for Power Blade and Shatterhand.
Damn, that music, so good.
kabuki quantum fighter and ninja gaiden :D AWESOME
I loved that brief flash of 1st person perspective so dope
How mad are these guys that The Messanger ate their lunch last year?
Nah. Two cakes!
Cyber Shadow has been my IGN for like 2 years... now this comes out, I must play it

I'm also noticing things that remind me of my own NES library.
Metal gear rising 2 confirmed booiiiiiis
I got pumped the second I saw that good'old Yacht Club Logo. This game look SICK and I can't wait to give it a try!
And with that, I relinquish my wallet to you
This is the ninja year (Messenger, Sekiro, Cyber Shadow)
This looks like The Messenger without the comedy. The Messenger was my GOTY in 2018 so I can't wait.
This, The messenger, and Oniken are all on switch. What a treat to have.
Yeah!! We need more Ninja games like this
This is literally The Messenger. I'm not complaining though, because I loved Shovel Knight and The Messenger. With this, Blaster Master Zero 2, The Messenger DLC, King Knight DLC and Hollow Knight Silksong, i dies are killing it. Man. I've never played so many indie games before.
Man, listen to this music! ❤️
So glad I can still find new games in this style.. I miss the 8 bit/16 bit era of video games
Already in love!
That’s crazy. It’s a Metroidvania with mega-man esc rooms/levels with contra looking enemies and ninja gaiden esc core gameplay. Why didn’t someone make a game like this sooner? And the music... leave it to yacht club to make the best harmonies of our favorite games.
THE MUSIC IS JUST TOO AWESOME! I WANT THIS GAME NOW!
This looks awesome. It's like a cross between Ninja Gaiden and Hagane.
finally! about damn time someone mentioned Hagane.
Metroid and Ninja Gaiden ? I am interested.
There is an overflow of pixel art games and I'm always glad when it does not look lazy. This one looks like a fun game
It’s good to see Yacht Club Games is doing something other then Shovel Knight
Yacht Club? Instant buy
