I just received word via Digg that the Flash game N -- or as it's better known to me: that ninja game that stole my entire summer two years in a row -- is being ported to the Live Arcade. Here's what the developers have to say:

Metanet Software has decided to join forces with Vancouver's Klei Entertainment to produce a version of N for Xbox Live Arcade. Development is slated to officially begin on February 1, 2007, and finish at the end of this summer.

We will make sure that this incarnation of N remains as close to the original as possible, in terms of gameplay, graphics and fun. We're including a level editor so players can make and swap their own levels, and we're testing out exciting new features such as multiplayer modes as well.

Expect to see N+ on Live Arcade fall 2007.

I'll gladly drop some MS fun money for this game -- and in the meantime, I'll be brushing up my skills in the free Flash version.
