Naruto Shippuuden Gekitou Ninja Taisen EX3 - New Import

«©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.
