Naruto: Shinobi Retsuden, a portable Naruto Gamecube game on the DS

Later this month Tomy is releasing a 3D Naruto fighting game on the Nintendo DS. While this is a “new” game, Naruto: Shinobi Retsuden looks more like a tweaked version of the Gamecube series on the DS. Instead of cel shaded models on the Gamecube the characters look a little blockier on the DS. Also the backgrounds have less going, but for a DS game Naruto: Shinobi Retsuden looks on par with other 3D games on the DS. A change in the fighting system is the bottom pad has items to use. You can instantly recover life by drinking milk or boost your defense with a chuunin vest. Besides the addition of items Naruto: Shinobi Retsuden looks like it has the same combos the Geiktou Ninja Taisen series used in each installment. Look below to see pictures Naruto’s combo. Does it look familiar?

D-Fuse Says:

If its the same as Naruto for the Gamecube I’m sold!

Kakashi Says:

The combo looks exactly like it does in Gekitou Ninja Taisen for Gamecube. Like D-Fuse said, if it’s the same as the Gamecube version, it might be worth getting. Although I’m getting tired of playing GNT4, the aspect of competing online against other players is exciting. Hopefully more people in the US import this game; otherwise there will be definite lag playing against people in Japan.

Having already played the game, I could tell you that, while the combos look similar, they are different. Combos of more than 3 hits are not easy to pull off (game controls seem to be a little bit slow) and the graphics look murky in movement.
Being a fan fo the Gekitou Ninja Taisen series, I was a little bit disappointed, but as for the first Naruto DS fighting game, it is a commendable effort.
P.S. Characters seem to have only one Ninjitsu special, and using one button for blocking is the worst decision ever (opposed to just pulling Back in the joypad)
