Ryu Hayabusa of the Dragon Lineage must prevent the power of the evil Dark Dragon Blade from being used to take over the world. Excellent control coupled with a high degree of difficulty made Ninja Gaiden a critical and commercial success. Black, released in September 2005, is essentially a Director's Cut, with more difficulty settings and new skins for Ryu, his friends and his enemies. Source: SDA Game page Tecmo specifically targeted Ninja Gaiden at a non-Japanese audience, and despite difficulties in obtaining content ratings due to the game's graphic depictions of violence, it was generally well received, and 362,441 copies were sold in North America in the first month after its release. Nevertheless, the game had to be censored for release in some regions, and Japanese sales were poor, with only 60,000 in the four months following its release. Making use of the Xbox's internet connectivity, Ninja Gaiden was the focus of a series of online contests across North America, Europe and Japan. Record-breaking numbers of players took part, competing for places in the live final, which was held during the Tokyo Game Show (TGS) 2004. Team Ninja continued to update the game after its release: two Hurricane Packs were made available as free downloadable content that added extra content, gameplay challenges, and game engine improvements. These were incorporated into a 2005 remake, entitled Ninja Gaiden Black, that was regarded by the game's creator Tomonobu Itagaki as the definitive version. In 2007, Ninja Gaiden was graphically enhanced on the PlayStation 3, with extra content, in the form of Ninja Gaiden Sigma. This version was later released on the PlayStation Vita as Ninja Gaiden Sigma Plus.

This can include glitches, abusing in-game mechanics and skipping items or even playing events out of sequence.
