DMC is also not a particularly good comparison point. DMC is more flashy, while NG is generally more punishing (but also more rewarding) and more about edge-of-the-seat fighting than showing off. I'm not sure there is a game Ninja Gaiden can be compared to at all, it seems to be in a class of its own.

It reminds me a lot of Onimusha for the weapons upgrades, orbs, switching between male and female, and it has a real Capcom feel to it in general puzzle-wise (if you could call them puzzles).
I also related it to Devil May Cry 2 for it being fast-paced and I don't have a good memory of the game, but for some reason I could see the acrobatic/jumping being quite similar to the chick's?
It's funny, one of my friends believes it to be a direct rip-off of 'Onimusha'.
I wouldn't quite agree there but it does remind me of it.
