Two ninja girls escorting Ryu Hayabusa

- Sheylara

YES! Today is the day!

The Ninja Gaiden II month-long launch campaign starts today (technically yesterday but today is more fun) and I’m going to be somersaulting around Singapore in my ninja costume.

I wish.

Only the ninja costume bit is true. I have yet to master the art of somersaulting. Maybe not in this life.

There will be three of us, one Ryu Hayabusa and two ninja girls, scaring members of an unsuspecting public with our creepy all-black ninja costumes as we patrol our designated routes performing the unglamorous job of giving out flyers.

That’s about all we’ve been trained to do. They rejected my proposal to fly us to Japan to master the deadly art of ninjitsu. I guess there wasn’t enough time.

I’ll reveal the “secret” locations of our appearances in a while.

I just want to talk a bit about the launch campaign.

Pre-order sales of the Xbox 360 version of the game started yesterday at gaming stores around Singapore.

All pre-ordered copies come with a gift (or three). The exciting part is that you get more gifts if more people pre-order the game!

If the presale figure falls between 1 and 500, everyone will get a Ninja Gaiden II t-shirt.

501 to 1000, you get a t-shirt and a note book.

Over 1000 and Xbox Singapore is giving out a t-shirt and a note book and a special Ninja Gaiden II console skin for the Xbox 360!!!

Read about it at the Xbox NG2 site if you want. If you can’t be bothered, just remember this:

Pre-order Ninja Gaiden II for the Xbox 360 from May 1 to 25 to get cool NG2 premiums. Collect your game and gifts on June 3 at Funan the IT Mall.

That’s all!

Okay, I’ll now reveal our secret appearance locations for today only.

7pm—8pm: Suntec City (basement food court; e-life; Balaclava)

9pm—10pm: Clarke Quay bridge

11pm—12mn: Cineleisure

Please do not come and laugh at us.

There will be more appearances next week and next next week. Will update again.

    Well… if you’d plucked up enough courage to come to MY ninja class then you would be able to do all the rolls that you want… But, sadly, it was not to be.

    motd: Pictures coming up! ;) They’re not very nice cos they were taken at night, so they’re very blurry. But the next two events should be better!

    modchip: Haha yeah. Games always release too fast and furious. Don’t have enough time/money to play everything. :(

    moralis: Really? Cool! Never knew there was such a term!

    Minou: Haha. Okay. But I think we’ll have better things to laugh at during your birthday party tomorrow. kekekeke!

    Jesta: Haha, that’s true. But my poor old bones cannot take it, plus your damn class is so far! I regret not being able to attend your class on a daily basis though, so go ahead and gloat some more. :P

    Neo: Ok, I will, the next time I have a death wish.
