28:00 Outro - เกม
What's better: Buying unlocks in an in-game shop or unlocking everything through gameplay? Also, what's the best Clash of Ninja/Gekitou Ninja Taisen game?
Both the shop and unlocking it through gameplay are grindy, I'd probably go with naturally through gameplay to avoid microtransactions
Id rather gameplay honestly👨🏾🦼its always fun, even with the grind
Shop is better. Give me that transparency over what I'm doing with my time any day.
The shop for sure,through gameplay is hella frustrating
I think it doesn't depend on if you are getting it trough the Shop or gameplay I just want to be able to pick and chose what I want to invest my time on when I have to "grind" im both cases :)
GNT4 is so popular in the competitive scene (relatively-speaking, for an anime game released in 2005) that modders released a patched version fixing bugs and rebalancing certain aspects of the game. There's been tournaments as recent as last year.
Yup, it’s called Super Clash of Ninja 4
Yep
ok y'all how can I get this game ?
As recent as last month ahaaha
@@theworld5881 Not officially available for purchase, so just search online for an ISO.
it crushes me that the series ended at such a weird spot. pain, obito, madara, snake kabuto, and so many other characters missed out
yeah true! i read that the developers got into a fight. even more tragic, since originally there had been more content planned. imagine a new installment of this series with switch graphics! it would be so dope 😩
I hope one day this Naruto series comes back, it had such a cool mechanic and a four player battle (It be very awesome to see Pain, Madara, Hashirama, KCM Naruto and even Minato to this game)
I'd love to see how pain would play like in this sieries.
@moodomoi late reply but I'm curious where did you hear that the devs had a falling out?
@@lucaslongolucasksenha7827minato is in the game already ..
That Deidara fight on REV3 is giving me Vietnam war flashbacks D: Adding on what I rememeber that I don't think was mentioned
- In REV2 and REV3 (not sure if it happened in REV1) having some characters as a team functioned as an "awakening" mechanic. For instance, if you had Hiruko and Sasori on the team, you'd only have Hiruko available, and when he was defeated, a cutscence would transition you to playing as Sarori
- The stage transition had a type of rock/paper/scissor mechanic, where the attacker could hit, subsitute or do nothing, and the "defender" could dodge, turn around or do nothing. If for example the attacker substituted and the defender dodged or did nothing, the attacker would end up behind the defender, who would be staggered. On the other hand if the defender turned around then the staggered effect wouldn't happen.
Revolution 2 was my personal favorite. Awakened Hinata got me so hyped
She’s literally the same character lol only difference is her ult
There is a special cutscene if u use naruto/nine tailed naruto and sasuke/2nd stage curse mark form in tag mode. if u kill on they have a cutscene of them transforming into that form
The music to Valley of the End/Final Valley in this series lives rent free in my mind. Easily one of my favorite tracks in all the Naruto games!
duuuuude I played the game that features the song like 7 years ago but the song immediately popped up in my head while I was reading your comment.
You mean the one that plays when you fight Naruto with Sasuke against eachother
Clash of Ninja 2 it’s the raining roof top song for me idk the guitar rift and the sound board effects they use is awesome!
Its Tanzaku Castle for me
My favorite is the woods at night stage song. This series had great stage themes.
Can you imagine a new Clash of Ninja game with every character from up to the 4th Great Ninja War. That would've been really great to see. The Ninja Storm games did a great job but wanting to see more with Clash of Ninja would be awesome too
That would be a problem because I have work to do. 😂
There's a guy doing it by himself.

Would be great if they brought this series back. I always loved this type of gameplay in anime fighters. Never was a big Tekken fan, but this just works for me for some reason
i forgot how horrifying the deidara fight was....
I think it might have even been as bad as trying to beat the water dungeon in majoras mask without using the barrier
Me and my friends always loved this serie, we see it as another smash brother on the sense that is a fighting game with very simple diretional controls but hard to master, is a great balance of fun and competitive gameplay, its so sad that this serie ended, it had so much potential, the new naruto games dont have anything like this games.
Thank god theres people that understood the potential of this games and theres a mod version of Gekitou Ninja Taisen 4 called Super Naruto Clash of Ninja 4, it transforms the game into its more competitive form and its a blast to play, i recomend anyone to try it.
They gave Ten-Ten an awesome fighting style in Gekito Ninja Taisen EX 3.
I remember seeing a screenshot of the massive character selection of Gekito Naruto Taisen Special as a kid and I totally thought it was fake but wow turns out this game just wasn’t released here in the states 😭 definitely gonna getting this game idc what it takes
I've been waiting on this. I played the Revolution games so much. Attacking enemies in stage transitions was always a thing in all the games. That's why I loved it so much. Lol
This
19:04 have to argues against your point. Not only is he crouched, but in the instance where he is knocked back, you can see that they had Naruto's character model extend his ankles downward. That adds quite a bit of extra length.
8:53 bruhhhhh that dodge and then aerial attack by guy was so smooth
GNT4 is still thriving in competitive scene. Its sad that the game never released world wide as it had many characters that never made it to other games and of course the story mode.
There is a good sub series called ninja chronicals that had 2 ps2 entries and a psp entry that had a cool customization system and was an action brawler. It would be cool to see you check it out.
It’s called Uzamaki Chronicles not Ninja
@@reallyhimongod you got me, i was speaking from memory
Finally somebody giving the clash of ninja games on the wii some indepth review. I wish CONR3 story wasn't so short as it presented itself. It was a blast to play local multiplayer with brothers, cousins and friends during high-school.
I don’t comment too often but I really want to say you’re an AMAZING critique. Super unbiased but pointing out the most prominent pros and cons well done👍🏾
I really wish they continued this series. It was one of my favorite games growing up and even playing it today its still a blast. I definitely prefer the clash of ninja series gameplay to the storm series.
It'd be neat if we got a new Clash of Ninja with the production value of the Ultimate Ninja Storm games!
Just a tiny little thing about the mention of boss characters in Rev2's story having Hyper Armor. That's been a thing in Clash of Ninja 2 btw. Gaara had hyper armor in the final fight with Naruto so it kinda confused me when it sounded like it was the first time you encountered something like that. It was easy with Naruto though because his BBB string knocks the opponent off their feet with the third hit.
Secondly, and I'm not fully expecting you to just know this of course, you CAN stagger opponents with Hyper Armor, just gotta knock them off their feet with sweeps or attacks that constitute as lows. (Down B's for example)
Also, in the Rev2 section you probably didn't figure it out BUT you can actually reflect projectiles like kunais/shurikens and paper bombs by flicking the C-Stick as it's flying towards you! Neat little thing that goes into the next title.
Small nitpicks but fair reviews from someone who doesn't SUPER sweat the games like I do lmao, cool videos nonetheless.
So if I remember correctly Bando , kagura, towa and komachi were western exclusive for a while because they debuted in REV 2 which was a western only release and REV 3 (which they also appeared in) was specifically developed also for western release so those 4 characters didn’t show up in Japan until GNT Special. And because GNT Special was only in Japan the west never got post time skip Ino, Minato, Killer B, Ay and Sage mode Naruto
Facts Thats exactly how it was i own every copy i hate that they couldnt have a western version of gekito taisen special
Japan never got the Rev 2 characters my guy
@@montelhelem8707 Oh yeah you're right, well I should have checked instead of going off memory. I really did feel like they were in the game though but I probably just kinda fused it with Rev 3 since I haven't played both in ages
@@rajangeta8334 whats funny is that they are in the games files but were never made playable in sp, lol
This series was my shit
There's one thing that was definitely worth mentioning with EX1 though: Naruto has an unique super move to this game using his clones for a Rasengan combo, which looked really fun. EX2 and every other game since replaced it with the Giant Rasengan, so that's an EX1 exclusive fun detail.
In case anyone wants to know what the online was like in Naruto Shippuden: Clash of Ninja Revolution 3 - It was awful, like most online Wii games at the time. There was delay-based netcode resulting in slowed-down framerates when lag occurred, lots of players rage quitting, and zero matchmaking meaning you often played against people who had no life, taking you out in a single combo.
I remember as kid knowing of the existence of GNT3 and GNT4 and was excited for Revolution 2 because I thought that was the translated version of GNT4, because Revolution 1 was more similar to its japanese counterpart, and as soon as I saw title screen I knew it wasnt the same game and felt somewhat dissapointed, never cared for the paper bomb or hand signs or the original characters made the story neither the stage transitions. I prefered the 3v3 feature of GNT4 because "its like marvel vs capcom 2 bbyyyy" at least thats what I thought at the time. I still think that Revolution 2 pales in comparasion to GNT4.
Tragedy This series did not last until the end of Shippuden. Could you imagine Tobi and Madara in this game?
Imagine Boruto or Baryon mode Naruto in this series
I remember playing Clash Rev 2 with a friend when I was a kid. We'd run through survival as a team on the Wii and it was so much fun. Legit core memory for me. I don't remember the story mode being that hard, just equal to most games from that time (outside of Soulslike, games are generally easier nowadays). Except for the Kagura fight. I remember that shit being absolute aids. Love your vids, they take me down memory lane
She’s the only character with super armor so you have to cheese the same armor break move as Tsunade
Shout out to that time when I was a kid, I was playing REV3 with my sister, and she kept beating me, so I threw my controller at the couch, it bounced up, and then hit the window.
Also, fuck that Deidara fight. I spent about a month trying to get past the clone fights only to never end up beating that one. To this day, I still haven't gone back and done it.
Absolutely love the video, great job.
I will say, not a fan on how Special handles it's substitutions.
In the earlier games, it functioned as a risk-reward mechanic, because you could choose to either escape a combo and lose 75% of your chakra (due to substituting) or keep the chakra, but take more damage (due to not escaping the combo).
Another thing you missed out on was the Y-Cancel system.
Since Gekitou Ninja Taisen 4, you could press Y under certain circumstances to cancel an attack for 25% chakra, allowing for new combos to be performed.
Specifically, your opponent needs to be airborne, you need to hit them with an attack that isn't a sweep (stuff like down A/B on most characters) and have 25% chakra.
And yes, the y cancel can be done as many times as you have chakra for as long as all the conditions are still met when you attempt it.
Thanks for the video! I’m looking forward to what you have coming up next :)
This guys vibe is so positive and pleasant :) I don’t even actively watch the whole way through but I love leaving them on in the background because his commentary is so upbeat
I appreciate that so much 😭
@@Niosai keep up the good work!! :)
That Tsunade vs Kagura fight is still stuck in my brain. Absolutely brutal
Great pair of videos! I love that someone is acknowledging the games from this era! It feels like there were a ton of anime fighting/party/adventure games between the mid-2000s and early 2010s that just kinda... Stopped all of a sudden, so it's really cool to have someone talk about them! I always found it cool that the Rev games had their own original characters, as well! Do you think you'll keep covering different anime franchises game series? I can't wait to see what's next!
I'm actually working on more Dragon Ball videos as we speak! I appreciate this comment :)
Revolution 2 is definitely my favorite… is what I would say if I ever beat the overpowered Bando fight with Jiraiya. Him armoring thru every combo and killing me just made me put the game down as a kid
18:54 This happens because EX 2 along with some of the other games in the series (and many other Wii games, Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3 for example) don't actually have proper 16:9 modes. Because the Wii uses anamorphic widescreen, which is basically content at 4:3 made to be stretched to look like 16:9, when you boot up a game that doesn't support 16:9 it looks stretched because it's really just a stretched 4:3 image. Put the Wii into 4:3, and set your TV to not stretch the picture and it'll look normal.
Wow I am amazed at your work man! Very relatable, very likeable and fair assessments that you also acknowledge of possible user error on your behalf. Amazing review that I can definitely feel refreshed from content on TH-cam. Having literally spent summers playing these series with friends and family, I came here randomly just searching for Naruto Clash of Ninja nostalgia and I definitely enjoyed going through the past!
I appreciate that a lot. Thank you :)
I did a quick digging on Gekito Ninja Taisen EX. That game was released in 2007, not 2006. And here I thought my memories were messed up when you mentioned 2006, which that's impossible as the tv anime came out in 2007 in the same month, as my Freshman year memories serve me well.
Missed some things but over all good review
The shop is so much better you have to play over 700 fights in Rev 2 just to unlock all characters the store in 3 you can cheese it just by doing the mission list and it’s easy to rack up ryo in the first couple of missions that aren’t drastically too difficult..
Good job on the Editing
Also, aside from "another great video", you should consider a side series delving deeper into some of the fighting games and your opinions.
I genuinely would love to hear you break down fighting game rosters. As a side series I mostly recommend it because I want to see that, from you specifically. Plenty of experts making tier lists, but that's not what you do. You describe and explain, and I'd rather know why someone is cool than what rank they are.
This is a neat idea 👀
I support this with both hands :D
I had it because of the Jojo all star battle R dlc; Risotto Nero plays really interestingly and he wasn't out when you reviewed it. Then I thought about what descriptions you do give, and they make me want those for every character, like Pet Shop for instance.
You know that Jojo stuff hits the metrics like candy lol
Naruto Gekitou Ninja Taisen EX3 has a special place in my heart because it's the first "clash of ninja" game i've played after 2 and also one of the first game i've hacked for my WII.
For the shop vs random unlock I'd say a mix of both. Make it so you can unlock through playing the story, but if you don't feel like going through all that, Grindr to buy them all in shop.
I wish sage mode Naruto got more time in the spotlight. He's legit my fave form of Naruto beside kyubi chakra cloak form.
Awesome! He’s covering the Ninja revolution games (surprisingly, not a lot of people know about these games).
I find it very confusing that you had such an issue with the last fights in Rev 2 but said very little about the final boss in Rev 3. At least with the fights in Rev 2, you can stagger them(aside from Guy but at least you have 2 partners in that fight) by sweeping them or any other move that knocks them off their feet. Final boss in Rev 3 can't be staggered at all. They also have ranged attacks that shatter your guard in one hit. That fight is 10 times worst than anything in Rev 2.
I played a lot of Gekitou Ninja Taisen Special back in the day, it is a pretty good game
Great stuff, unfortunately the only games I got to play was clash of ninja 1&2 so this was nice to see👍
conr3 was my first clash of ninja and naruto game
it's cool seeing how they came up
would be interesting to see a new one from Eighting now
My nephew and I have way too many hours in Revolution 3. I loved the grind. It might be the only game I have ever enjoyed grinding. It was so exciting for us to pick our next new character, and you got ryo from normal gameplay, so it's not like we ever played just to unlock something.
The second stage transition felt nearly impossible to pull off. We only did it a handful of times and I don't think we ever figured out how we were supposed to be doing it.
We might be the only people to also defend the Wii controls. We both shake our hands a lot when we get excited, so playing an exciting game and being encouraged to constantly shake the controller was so satisfying. Tbf though, I've enjoyed the weird shoehorned motion controls of every Wii game I've ever played.
CONR 2 came out when i was 10 years old. I’m 24 now😭
Came out when I was 12 Im 26
Would had love if there was a mention of sasori and hirukos poison ability that reverses controls and does chip damage or kisame draining chakra with his sword
Thank you for your effort I really enjoyed :D Please do Naruto ninja council series
In Ex3 lnp aren't stat boosts, What they are is a special ability I guess, Asuma 5a/ja becomes unblockable. Shika paper bombs become traps etc. A big change from ex2-ex3 though was the addition of being able to sub otg hits. In the ex engine otg combo's are a very big thing so that addition changed it alot from a competitive point of view. From ex1-2 they changed block stun, Made meter gain Victim > attacker, Among other things. We currently have a scene that plays ex3 competitively on damage setting 4 if you are interested.
EPIC video
Love these games, revolution 3 is my favorite 💕
Btw, I’m watching this late but thanks for posting this 2 days after my birthday (even if it wasn’t intentional).
I think I prefer a mix of unlocking through gameplay and buying stuff in shops for these sorts of games, similar to how the Budokai series done it, you get characters and stages after beating them/fighting on that stage on that stage in story mode as well as a few moves moves and items but the rest will be primarily through the shop, basically unlock essentials through gameplay, fluff through shop.
Did you ever figure out how to structure the "I played every street fighter game" idea? because I thought of a way to structure it in three parts if you'd want to hear
Rev 2 and rev 3 story modes difficulty spikes were EXHAUSTING back when i first played them. I still dont know how i ever made it through them
I think both a shop and unlocks through gameplay are both welcome in a game to me.
Something you missed with the latent mode is that it sometimes changes a character's Special move like Kiba's Fang over Fang becoming orange tinted and more furious or Ino kicking the foe into the air and blowing them up
Could you please do a video on the naruto Uzumaki chronicle games too cause those were so fun to play,at least the second one for me
Clash of ninja Revolution 3 look fantastic
I think the beat ‘‘em up type from genkitou ninja raises 3 is probably inspired by a Naruto spin off for the wii called Naruto dragon blade chronicles also u miss to mention that u cancel attacks and also that certain low hp stat boost have certain specific effects for characters
Gaara
block unblockable atacks, does not receive chip damage, gets a counter jutsu in revolution 3. But still great review as always
man they just need to make another clash of ninja game with all new roster and mechanics literally the best series they made
A new Clash of Ninja would be AMAZING
Man, actual good ocs, I really miss Kagura and Bando(who's name is Namco and Bandai lol portmanteau)
Kagura is so thick, not even Tsunade makes her flinch.
The naruto shinobi retsuden/ninja destiny games on the ds are basically portable versions of clash of ninja series but with alterations you should check them out.
22:56 “THE BOUNCER” type of battle system! Never thought id see a naruto version of that. I wish they expand more on this idea.
I like your taste in video games. You're the first person I've seen reference The Bouncer in years lol
i'd like to see you cover all the dead or alive games, sometime in the future.
U'm pretty sure there are only 2 of them, but I played a series of games on ps2 when I was you called "Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles (1 +2) and I'd love to revisit them by watching g you review them!
Revolution games have always had stage transitions, and when they say two way stage transition it means theres multiple places to knock them off now. Hope this clears some things up
I loved the clash of ninjas games I wish they made more of them
3:20 I did play this with the wii remote and it controlled great with it and the hand sign mechanic with the with remote actually wasn't to bad
You need help no one plays with the Wii remote what are you 8?
You should play rom hacks like: Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 4 and Super Naruto Clash of Ninja 4
I believe you should be able to attack during stage transitions since you could in EX 1. It probably just didn't have displays for em when using a gamecube controller. Wouldn't be till Special that GameCube Controller gets HUD displays for attack transitions and specials. Not sure why they never added them for the earlier games. Also yes GNT4 has a competitive scene. Really more so Super GNT4
16:15 I immediately thought of pirate warriors games, the cutscenes don’t really change from 1, 3 and 4 but how they tell the story in gameplay do, and pirate warriors 2 is entirely non canon, now I want you to play every pirate warriors game
These games where my childhood and as I find it funny they're the only ones you can play as Baki (Gaara's sensei)
The thing i do to get points on con r 3 is playing survival while having level 4 for damage so I can fast wins and fast points
I used to no-life revolution 3 as a kid. Played it with my friends back in the day and still do now. I definitely prefer this gameplay over storm's gameplay but im extremely biased.
If you keep adding my man Deidara to these Naruto thumbnails you just might have to become my fave TH-camr
Deidara is garbage tf
I thinks it's better to unlock the main cast through the story mode and others additional/special character through in game shop!
I love a shop for costumes/colors/stages/music/characters but i don't like modes locked behind it
I remember that Orochhimaru fight so well. "Impudent pup!" X-INFINITY
It took me 30 attempts to defeat deidara in the story mode I didn't play the game for 3 days after that.
Yea true him being the final boss fight in the game they had to really make it feel like a tough fight
@@jonnycarter46 this was 10 years ago I still remember dying from 2 explosions & throwing my controller.
I just wish the later Clash of Ninja games kept in the weird characters, like playing as Akamaru or the puppets without the puppet masters
When I got my wii I first owned clash of ninja rev then quickly got the 3rd shortly after and I don’t even want to know how many hours I have on that game lmao. I grinder the hell out of that game and got all character unlocked and got S on all the special missions.
@Niosai 5:54 how did you get this mode I’ve had the game for over 3 years now and don’t know how to find it?
Clash of Ninja just felt like a more honest and fast-paced fighting game to me. I had Clash of Ninja 2 for GameCube and Ultimate Ninja 1 for PS2. Both games covered about the same content story-wise, and while I liked both games, I vastly preferred Clash of Ninja 2. It was like a baby's first Tekken kind of game, and it felt great to play. Gekito Ninja Taisen 4 and Gekito Ninja Taisen Special seem like the definitive games for their respective consoles, and it's a shame they were never localized.
It really sucks that the western releases had to scrub content and even make up original content because they were so far behind in the anime and the Japanese releases. This was an awkward era of anime licensed games where localizers felt the need to cut content just so they don't spoil things not officially shown in their region yet. In my experience, One Piece Grand Battle had this problem, and Zatch Bell: Mamodo Battles had this problem too.
If I remember correctly, the regular attack moved 1 Chiyo puppet special attacks move the other. And a certain button can drag then closer to you. U less thats Kankuro
It always makes me laugh how he says "buuut" or "preeetty".
I'm gonna think about this comment every time I say it now lmao
@@Niosai I thought it was intentional 😂
Can you play every digimon world and story games?
13:41 neither is better. Smash Bros./Kirby Air Ride style of achievements where by unlocking an achievement, it shows you how you could finish others that are near it. It's great how it doesn't reveal every achievement, but doesn't leave you in the dark full you're completely done chipping away everyone of them one by one. A lot more games can benefit from such a system. Using it as an unlock system than just for achievements.
Ninja Destiny (Shinobi Retsuden in JP) was kinda a port for the ds.
Very similar but toned down alot
Clash of ninja revolution three was the first game I ever 100% completed. Call me crazy but I loved the grind as a kid. Finding out about Anbu Kakashi made it all worth it in the end lol. I completed it 3 times on three different consoles at my parents and grandparents houses. Good times…
Ah. The memories 😍
With the popularity of FighterZ i would be so hype with a Clash of Ninja game with an expansive roster and focus on competitive balancing
In Clash Rev 2, I NEVER noticed the difficulty of the AI. I think I only had Difficulty on the Kagura fight, but even then I manage to beat the whole Story mode as a 12 year old in a couple hrs. Since you brought it up I was confused, since I don't remember that at all. I might pick it up again and see. I wasn't competitive either, just a casual
@niosai I just recently stumbled upon this video, and I recommend you look into a guy named Ituchi2
He has single handly combined every clash of ninja and gekitosu taisen into one fan made game and I think you will enjoy it
“The Saiyan goes.” 🥸
Unlike the game sins format, you still own this niche. Lots of similar attempts but nothing as comprehensive, all poorly named and structured oddly. Rarely do they actually say anything informative.
You serve a delicacy I can only get here.
