I've seen people use both... but which is the proper one to use? Most of the time I use n in a sentence and N at the start of a sentence, but I really shouldn't, seeing as it's a proper noun. Which makes things even more confusing.

N. just makes more sense, since it's the name of something.

though... I've never even considered this before in the four years I've been playing the game.

Oh, pff. Then it is also intel, xerox, twitter, facebook, digg, etc etc. I think M&R referring to it as N is evidence enough.

And yet, in the story, configure and help sections, it's referred to as N. See for yourself.

Nope, it's N. There's no debate to it. The game's legal full title is N: Way of the Ninja.
