You're going to need to sneak to an EB or GameStop if you want it, though.

DID YOU KNOW? NINTENDO REVEALS ITS DARK SECRET

Aug. 21, 2006 - A new Nintendo DS game is arriving with the stealth befitting a ninja assassin. Tenchu®: Dark Secret, made exclusively for Nintendo DS™ sneaks up on you – then grabs you by the throat. Be on your guard because it launches today.

Keep in mind you can't just find a ninja on any old street corner. Thus, it'll take skill and knowledge to obtain Tenchu: Dark Secret. The game, Rated T for Teen, will be available exclusively at GameStop and EB Games stores nationally.

Princess Shizu is a young woman married to a cruel warlord. After an attempt on her life, you must use your ninja skills to play through 40 missions to protect her and reveal her would-be killers. You can strike with a sword, plant secret grenades and even construct your own weapons.

If you're running low on supplies in your single-player missions, connect to Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection, Nintendo's wireless gaming service. There you can meet with friends and strangers to buy, sell and trade important items. The only thing more fun than playing as a ninja is fighting another ninja for supremacy. Just meet with another player on a local wireless connection and match wits until one of you reigns supreme.

For more information about Tenchu: Dark Secret, please visit www.nintendo.com.

In other words, no else else wanted to stock this piece of crap.

Haha, I saw this on sale at Gamestop yesterday. It really surprised me, as I hadn't seen anything on it since E3. I guess my local Gamestop just jumped the gun.

It's about time Nintendo's old WiFi Connection commercials made sense. Why they used ninjas to advertize Mario Kart is beyond me.

Maybe it is crap, but there are only two reviews at the moment. Perhaps they were written by pirate sympathizers. Let me know when a ninja-pirate agnostic review turns up.

those reviews are bad, both done by users and not the offical staff
there are only 2 anyway

also gamebrink claims there is no wifi, when there clearly is *rolls eyes*
maybe was too hard to spot the blue logo on there box? or did they just played the rom
