Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z has 2D retro mode, watch it here

The publisher has explained that the mode is unlocke as you play through the core campaign, and comes with a brutal, old-school difficulty curve.
Yaiba: Ninja Gaiden Z will drop March 4, 2014 for PS3, Xbox 360, and PC in North America, and then across Europe from February 28.
