Game Synopsis
«©NCSX»
The spiky-blonde ninja
named Naruto wreaks havoc in another fighting
game which follows the 2D conventions of previous
Naruto EX games. The Akatsuki criminal organization
hangs in the background once again where the group's
powerful members provide adversity and lofty
challenges to Naruto and friends.
Similar to Naruto GNT EX2, the
new Wii Naruto game is a 2D fighting game that
uses 3D backgrounds to provide depth. Although the
combatants battle on a 2D plane, they can perform
sidestepping evasive maneuvers to avoid oncoming
attacks. Players control the action through a
combination of the Nunchuk and the Wii Remote where
the analog thumbstick moves the hero and the D-Pad
on the Remote is pressed down to perform attacks.
There's also a Story Mode where Naruto and cohorts run around a 3D
maze and battle crowds of henchmen as well as the
members of the Akatsuki. The Story Mode starts off
with Naruto and Sai but upon completing the first
maze, Tenten and Rock Lee kick off the next maze. A
Tutorial Mode teaches beginners basic commands and
moves.

» A jukebox in the Gallery Mode may be accessed to

well as various character sayings that were sampled
by the producers. Naruto himself has 130 sayings and
TenTen has 122 snippets of speech. All of the other
characters also possess between 60 to 100+ different
sayings.
» In the STORY MODE, players initially control
Naruto who teams up with a COM-controlled Sai and
the two blaze through a forst beating down legions
of enemy henchmen in scrolling 3D action. A map on
the upper right corner of the screen shows the
location of the duo by way of a blue arrow. To view
the goal point which is indicated by a pulsating red
blob, press the "+" button to check out the
convoluted maze that has to be navigated. Since the
henchmen are neverending, you'll basically have to
attack a few of them and run for the goal. The
second maze features a number of crates which hold
explosives so you're better off avoiding them. To
recover Naruto's health, some of the henchmen will
drop bowls of noodles when they're defeated which
boost Naruto's HP. When Naruto reaches the goal in
the second maze, he'll find Deidara waiting for him
and a battle ensures. Deidara attacks with explosive
spiders and rides his bird for special attacks. Upon
defeating Deidara, players get to control Tenten who
teams up with Rock Lee. Tenten wields a spear which
casts a wide arc of destruction on any henchmen that
may be trying to push up on her.
» If Naruto is defeated in the Story Mode, the end
ends immediately and he's kicked back to the main
menu. Once in the main menu however, players can
choose to restart the adventure at the last maze
that he/she was in.
