What isn't there, however, is much in the way of fresh content. For those that enjoy an in-game recap, however, many of the lines in Path of the Ninja are taken directly from the anime script, so the authenticity is definitely there. As an issue all-too-common in the anime world, fans of the series will again need to face the facts that Path of the Ninja won't be telling a new story, but instead retell the origins seen countless times in other games, manga, and the anime series itself. As the first of its kind here in the US, Path of the Ninja is a traditional RPG built around the world of Naruto, following the foundling ninja students from the beginning of the first season, as the story begins anew in RPG form. Will it be enough to satisfy rabid fans of Naruto lore? Perhaps, but it won't have the legs to pull in new fans through the game experience alone.įor this year's pocket effort, D3 brings an all-new DS-exclusive series to the US with Naruto: Path of the Ninja. As with each year, Naruto: Clash of Ninja on consoles is met with a pocket-geared adventure on DS, and like each of its predecessors, this year's pocket experience is unfortunately going to take a back seat to the main focus of the series with both Clash of Ninja Revolution on Wii, and Rise of a Ninja on the Xbox 360. Another year of console fighting games spawn another year of pocket spin-offs, as the Naruto series continues its blitzkrieg on the American anime audience.
