Naruto: Clash of Ninja

Naruto: Clash of Ninja, released in Japan as Naruto: Gekitō Ninja Taisen! (NARUTO -ナルト- 激闘忍者大戦!), is a series of 3D cel-shaded fighting games based on the manga and anime series Naruto by Masashi Kishimoto. They are developed by Eighting and published by D3 Publisher and Tomy. The series began with four GameCube games, with the first two available internationally and the last two released exclusively in Japan, before splitting into two parallel Wii-exclusive follow-up series: the Gekitō Ninja Taisen EX tetralogy released exclusively in Japan and its international counterpart, the Clash of Ninja: Revolution trilogy. The first half of the original series and the entire Revolution trilogy are available in North America and Europe (although the first Clash of Ninja wasn't released in the latter), the first two Revolution games are available in Australasia and all games in the series except the Revolution trilogy are available in Japan.

Each installment of the series has had numerous methods of play with varying types of modes.[1] New games have introduced additional modes that appear in subsequent games. The player directly controls a character taken from the Naruto series, and uses their unique abilities to battle and defeat an opponent.[1] New games in the series include more of the Naruto plotline in a story mode, and it tends to stay true to the source material. As a result, the character selection increases with each installment due to the inclusion of more of the Naruto plotline. With the final Revolution game and the entire EX series incorporating Naruto: Shippūden, the second part of the Naruto series, many of the characters have been substantially redesigned, and the selection correspondingly limited. Reactions to early installments were mixed, while later titles have been received more positively, with many praising the simple and easy-to-learn fighting system[2] while others lambasting the fighting system, and the lack of significant unlockable content.[3]

Gameplay

In each game of the series, the player controls one of many characters directly based on their counterparts in the Naruto anime and manga.[3] As in practically all fighting games, the player then pits their character against another character controlled by the game's AI or by another player, depending on the mode that the player is in.[3] The objective of each game is to reduce the opponent's health to zero using basic attacks and special techniques unique to each character that are derived from the source material.[1] For instance, Naruto Uzumaki can use his signature Shadow Clone Jutsu (影分身の術, Kage Bunshin no Jutsu, English manga: "Art of the Shadow Doppelganger"), and Rock Lee utilizes many of his Strong Fist style techniques.[4] Characters have available a chakra bar, which depletes upon the execution of a special technique. Each game in the series also possesses numerous modes that offer different styles of play. The game's story mode follows the plot from the anime and manga, with a versus mode pitting two players against each other also included.[1] Each game in the series adds new modes, as well as incorporating new features into the game. Early games feature unlocking characters by using a Shop and obtaining money in fights. Most of the games feature an 'Omake' bonus section which contains music, sound effects, and character models.

Naruto Shippūden: Gekitō Ninja Taisen! Special (ナルト 疾風伝 激闘忍者大戦! Special, lit. Naruto Shippūden: Great Ninja Battle! Special) is the eighth installment of the Clash of Ninja series only for Japan that only features an updated character roster, a substitution bar, and Wi-fi.

Playable characters

The characters in the Clash of Ninja series are directly based upon characters taken from the Naruto anime. Each game introduces a new set of characters, with their appearance and abilities derived directly from the source material. As Naruto Shippuden: Gekito Ninja Taisen! EX and its sequels take place during Naruto: Shippuden, which is two and a half years after the initial storyline, the characters' appearance is significantly different. As such, many characters in the GameCube games differ drastically from their Naruto Shippūden: Gekitō different types Ninja Taisen! EX, EX2, EX3 and Special counterparts. Naruto Shippuden: Clash of Ninja is the first game in the series to feature both post-timeskip characters and their pre-timeskip (PTS) counterparts, with the exception of Naruto and Sasuke in Japan's EX 2 and EX 3.

Reception

Clash of Ninja has received mixed reactions from critics. Metacritic, a website that compiles scores from numerous video game publications, gave Clash of Ninja a 72/100.[47] IGN lauded the game's battle system as "very balanced, amazingly quick, and still a lot of fun."[2] In addition, IGN commented on Clash of Ninja's "impressive visuals" and "strong audio."[2] Conversely, GameSpot provided a more negative review, deriding the game's different modes as "seriously boring and predictable," as well as criticizing the lack of significant differences in the playing style of the game's characters.[3] G4's X-Play gave Clash of Ninja two out of five stars, lambasting the fighting engine as "ridiculously basic," and "shallow."[48] It also criticized the lack of a story or use of cutscenes or extras.[48] GameSpy also commented on this, noting that "considering the charm of the source material, [the game] is really a disappointment."[49]

Critical reaction for Clash of Ninja 2 has been similar to its predecessor, with mixed opinions from critics. Metacritic compiled a "universal score" of 74/100 from 22 reviews for Clash of Ninja 2.[50] X-Play criticized the game for its limited two-player game and similar fighting styles of the characters. They did, however, praise the game's four-player mode and animation, commenting that it "[nailed] the look of the cartoon characters," and referred specifically to the characters' special techniques animation as "remarkably impressive."[51] IGN agreed with this assessment, noting the game's "sharper look" and "overall depth."[52] GameSpot, echoing its sentiments with Clash of Ninja, called the fighting system "simple," to the point that it made the game's expanded roster "irrelevant," and the game "not very satisfying to play."[53] Although GameSpot remarked favorably on the game's "high-energy Japanese-themed background music," it criticized the "obnoxiously repetitive" voice acting, and its constant presence in the game. GameSpot went on to remark that Clash of Ninja 2 "ultimately [did] little to improve upon the original," and felt more reminiscent of an "upgraded game than a true sequel."[53] IGN heavily disagreed, claiming that although the game was similar to the original, it had a "ton of added depth" in the fighting system and character options.[52] IGN lauded the game's characters' "depth and complexity" as "awesome," and "a blast to play."[52] GameSpy focused on the game's four player multiplayer, comparing it to the best-selling Super Smash Bros. Melee and that it was a "recipe for plenty of fun."[54] Like its predecessor, Clash of Ninja 2 achieved the 250,000 unit sales benchmark, earning it a spot in Nintendo's Player's Choice games.[55]

As with previous incarnations of the series, Clash of Ninja Revolution received a high score from IGN, who noted the game as "fun whether you're a fan of the anime or not", and went on to name it the best Wii fighting game to date, giving it an 8.4 as the final score.[56] The publication Nintendo Power gave Clash of Ninja Revolution a 7 out of 10, calling the game a mere roster update from previous versions.[57] However, Metacritic gave the game, just like the previous games on their site, "mixed or average reviews" with a 74/100 from 23 critics.[58]

Nintendo Power also gave the sequel, Clash of Ninja Revolution 2, an 8 out of 10 for its new modes and refreshed gameplay, and also called Clash of Ninja Revolution 2 the "best Naruto fighting game for Nintendo to date."[59] IGN gave the game an 8.2 out of 10, saying "new characters, new stages, same feel. Fans will love it, but not everyone will want to buy it all over again."[60] Like Naruto: Clash of Ninja and Clash of Ninja Revolution, Clash of Ninja Revolution 2 received "mixed or average reviews" on Metacritic with a critic's score of 74/100[61]

IGN gave Clash of Ninja Revolution 3 an 8 out of 10, praising game to have the most balanced cast of characters and best game mechanics of the series. IGN also criticized Story Mode and laggy online play.[62] However, Metacritic gave this game "mixed or average reviews" with on a score of 74/100 (similar to Clash of Ninja 2, Clash of Ninja Revolution, and Clash of Revolution 2) from 22 critics.[63]
