Sounds good. Never played any Naruto games but I've heard they are quite good fun.

The new 360 game is excellent, The price for this game not so much.

The 360 game is great, and I have it, so I won't be buying this. Unless they take off about �30.

It is basically the japanese game with different characters (because of it being a different part of the story) and with some extra wii waving added on (which I believe is optional)

The Naruto fighting games on GC were very good fun and this is basically the same thing. The 360 game is more of single player experience (the fighting in it is terrible lol) but this one is definitely a fun multiplayer fighting game.

Naruto Clash of Ninja Revolution European Version features the largest number of playable characters from the Naruto series and introduces several prominent and popular characters for the first time

Doesn\'t Clash of Ninja Revolution have 20 characters? Smilie Naruto Gekitou Ninja Taisen 4 had 39.
Probably won\'t bother with this...I have Naruto 4 on \'Cube. Also have the 360 Naruto...although the fighting is far inferior to the Naruto Gekitou Ninja Taisen series IMO. At least it has downloadable new characters.
It\'s too expensive, and it\'ll have far less content than an imported japanese Naruto game. Plus I doubt it\'ll have the option for subs. >.<

Seriously, it\'s only at the chunin exams?! O.o
Thank god the US One Piece Wii game is up to the japanese anime storyline, despite the dub being way behind it. :p Plus the funimation dubbing isn\'t too bad...

Also, I\'m pretty dubious of Wii fighting games without GC control...I feel it\'s just going to be lots of shaking the Wiimote...

It has control options for using the GC controller, so no waggle is required if you dont want to Smilie

Heheh, yeah, just read that somewhere else. Certainly a good thing. Smilie
Still, the most important thing in a fighting game (IMO) is a big character roster, especially in a game like Naruto/Smash Bros, where the characters aren't originally from fighting games. And considering this has half of the characters that Naruto 4 has, it's not really worth getting. Smilie
