In a new interview with former Team Ninja leader Tomonobu Itagaki, we get his thoughts on a variety of topics, including his upcoming war game, the recent Tecmo/Wikipedia controversy, and the "breast bounce" feature of Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 (Itagaki created the original Gaiden 2 but has no involvement with this title). Read on...

Kotaku: What do you think about the feature in Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 that allows players to control characters' chest movements with the SIXAXIS?
Itagaki: What the hell...?
Kotaku: When you shake the controller forcefully, the female characters' chests bounce. What do you think of that?
Itagaki: Well, it certainly is unique... (laughs)
Kotaku: What do you mean by "unique"?
Itagaki: Are those guys doing okay at home? I mean, I know Sigma 2's producer, Hayashi, just got married recently...
Kotaku: Well, we tend to think of breast bouncing mechanics as being a registered trademark of your games, Itagaki-san, so tell us, are you doing okay at home?
Itagaki: Don't worry, my wife is no pushover — trust me! (laughs)

    I quite agree. The feature is certainly "WTF?"-worthy.

      It's actually kind of sad when Itagaki is the one saying "WTF".
