Mini Ninjas?
No no no...according to Ask A Ninja it is "Minjas" :P

But seriously, it looks like something Pixar would come up with as a movie like Kung Fu Panda and they made a game out of it.
Even though i like these type of stuff, the art direction is not my type and it seems to be aimed for kids.

Wow, a Kung Fu Panda clone with kids. Only this game looks much worse than Kung Fu Panda. Developing a game for Wii and porting it to 360/PS3 without any enhancements at all (as the screens show) is ridiculous. They should stop working on this crap and finally finish Hitman 5.

Please tell me those Top screens are Wii screens too ?

Anyway, I think this could have potential but if this is priced higher than a budget title, I am not jumping in. looks cute though.

I think this looks quite cool personally, both graphically and conceptually.

The style is quite nice for a kids game but it's clearly been developed for the Wii then ported with virtually no changes to the 360/PS3.

Hitman is such a weak series, the most promising game IO ever put out was Freedom Fighters, they should revisit that idea instead. I know Hitman has its fans but to me its just a poor man's MGS...
