The latest from Sega on 3DS is a revisitation of the classic Shinobi series, due for release September 2011.
Developed by Griptonite Games, the long anticipated title will arrive in stores this September.
Today, Sega officially announced Shinobi for the 3DS, in development at Griptonite Games. The game's existence was originally leaked in a resume posted on LinkedIn and again later on the cover of Nintendo Power. According to the press release, players will once again be able to experience the classic side-scrolling gameplay this September.
With the closing of SilverBirch Studios, and the game being declared a financial failure by Atari, players will no longer be able to enjoy multiplayer or level sharing.
When SilverBirch Studios closed doors earlier this year, the servers for N+ on the DS and PSP were also turned off. Atari has been attempting to recover this data and return the servers to their former glory, however it appears the data is now gone for good.
