ecmo announced today that its first portable installment of the Ninja Gaiden games, Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword, will be heading to the Nintendo DS in March 2008. The game features the series’ trademark fast action and Ninpo magic, with all-new stylus controls. “Ninja Gaiden
 Dragon Sword brings a new level of gaming action to the Nintendo DS,” says Yoh Watanabe, Tecmo’s Marketing Manager.  “There’s currently a demo available on the DS Download Station and I urge everyone to try it out and you’ll know what I mean.”

We got our hands on the game earlier this year at Team Ninja’s Tokyo headquarters, and it’s definitely worth checking out.
