 t has always bothered me that most licensed fighters are primarily concerned with fulfilling a fanservice quota rather than delivering a solid game. While Ultimate Ninja still provides a ridiculous amount of fodder for Narutophiles, I was surprised to find that it actually does some creative and fun things with the combat. The battles are more akin to Smash Brothers than Street Fighter, with a simplistic control scheme and plenty of pick-ups in the environment that result in some crazy bouts. The overall zaniness of Naruto shines through in big super-moves that play out in interactive (though overly long) cinematics, and fans will love the pile of varied unlockables. Even so, for gamers who don’t know jutsu from chakra, don’t expect the game to give you any real incentive to play independent of its source material.
