Naruto Shippuden: Clash of Ninja Revolution 3

The orange-wearing, spunky ninja Naruto has starred in more anime episodes and manga issues than I'd care to count. Considering the franchise's focus on ninjas and the ninja way of life, it makes sense that videogame adaptations would come about -- and come about they have. For years, gamers have had a bevy of Naruto titles across numerous platforms to choose from, but a tragic majority of them haven't been worth the time and money. Fortunately, the Clash of Ninja series has taken Naruto quite seriously and the result has been surprisingly solid. With Naruto Shippuden: Clash of Ninja Revolution 3 hitting Nintendo's Wii, Naruto fans have a legitimate fighting game to enjoy that occupies everyone's favorite ninja-filled universe.

Clash of Ninja Revolution 3, developed by the same studio working on the anticipated Tatsunoko vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars, is an easy-to-learn, traditional fighter that takes place during the Naruto Shippuden timeline. Although the game has a fairly straight-forward interface and doesn't require a lot of advanced directional inputs, there's still plenty of depth to be found and competitive players will really enjoy what Revolution 3 has to offer.

Players can select from a huge roster of recognizable characters, both heroes and villains alike, though the majority of them are locked from the start and must be purchased at the in-game shop with Revolution 3's currency. This cash can be earned just by participating in battles, so players should have no problem pulling the curtain back on extra fighters, modes, stages and more.
