Vita's ultra-rare Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2 Platinum finally unlocked after 13-year wait

A player named Tqvry has earned Ninja Gaiden Sigma 2's Master of the Secret Arts Platinum on the PlayStation Vita, a trophy tied to completing 35 Turbo Speed duo missions. With Vita online play unsupported, the run relied on a computer-controlled partner and the 30fps cap, making it extraordinarily difficult.
