Last Friday, September 19, my travels brought me to the designer toy shop/art gallery Double Punch in San Francisco, CA to check out SouthPeak Games’ upcoming Nintendo DS™ title Ninjatown. Aside from scoring some hands on time with what played like a near-complete version of the game, creators Shawn Smith and Jennifer Brody were on hand to show off some really cool concept art, exclusive collectible plushies and more.

Hit the jump to read about Ninjatown and for your chance to win a Ninjatown poster signed by Shawn Smith.

People dressed as Ninjas get free train rides during Mie prefecture ’s Ninja festival. In the ancient days the Iga village (in the now Mie Prefecture) was one of the biggest centers in japan when it came to the practice of ninjutsu. So from April 1 to May 6 everyone in ninja garbs gets a free train ride courtesy of the city. Never mind that a true ninja wouldn’t  need to be given a free ride. He would ride free and you would never know it… if you’re lucky.
