Naruto Narutimate Hero 3 (PS2)

[lapiz]

Well, as narutofan indicates, Narutimate Hero 3 has been finally Announced and its due to this Winter.

I must say I did't expect this, since Ninden came out this August. Anyway, its for the best.

Heres a link to cyberconnect 2's website about the game


http://www.cyberconnect2.jp/index.html


Need a translation of this, so if anyone could do it, plz post here..

[Sylvanelf]

I'm definitely excited about this- Narutimetto Hero 2 is one of my favorite games, and I expect 3 will feature the Sound 5 as playable characters, and go through the "rescue Sasuke" arc in the story. From the picture we can see Naruto in Kyuubi form as he was fighting Sasuke. I've been holding off buying Uzumaki Ninden, because I feared it would not be worth my money, but winter is not long to wait at all for this game.

Eagerly awaiting the creation of a webpage on bandai games.... it looks like they don't even have a news post about it there.

[jester_agr]

title is very good

Looks a bit like the racoon Mario from Super Mario bros. 3:)

[Kaki]

:nuts :nuts :nuts :clap :crying This is an unbelivably happy day for me as far as naruto and video games. This has been my favorite game seince I played the first one, and I have been activly anticipateing and hopeing for a 3ed-now my hopes have been answered!! I can't wait for real updates but I saw the pic of the valley of the end setting and it looks so GREAT!
will feature the Sound 5 as playable characters
Yes indeed and hopefuly less charger charachters than before, but it is not likely that the current ones will change form charging. Oh well, they will prety much just build off of the last one. I wonder if they will stick with button mashing or intergate some of the old combos.
I just can't wait for this game! I'm obsessed with the title. :laugh

[lopsew]

Haven't all the Narutimate Hero games been based on the manga? I'm hoping we'll see Sasori, Deidara, and Zetsu. Sound 5 will definitely be there as well. No filler characters please. Make Asuma, Kurenai, and Iruka playable characters. Wouldn't mind seeing Yondaime, Obito, Rin, and Kakashi (from the gaiden) either...

Here's hoping...

And PLEASE go back to the old button input for Supers. NH2's Super system was a step WAAAAAY down...

[Illidin]

:smile-big I'm thrilled that this is coming out as early as it is...can't wait to add it to my collection:amuse.Hopefully they will go back to the old input sequence or make something new, sucks when all you'r friends can't mash as well as you :laugh.

[Kagalli]

OMG yay! More kickass goodness! Hope theres lots more characters. Oh! And post timeskip Sakura! yeah! Can't wait!

[iGo]

oh damn, this is gonna kickass....nh2 even appealed to my white friends, so they're gonna love this as much as i will.

[Axass]

Good, I wanted to get the 2nd one. Guess I'll just wait and see if the third's better.

[YamiNaruto]

they should definitly have more sencemaking combos like no naruto summoning yondaime

[K'Dash]

I'm just glad I didnt order the second game.

whee.

[kagemane1]

I can't wait to play this game NH 2 was the best. NH 3 is probably going to be better. New people, new moves, new missions, and so on can't wait!!

[SeruraRenge]

As long as they change the super system (not that I need em to win anyway, a good player never does) and that the timeskip characters are included, I'm happy.

Also, I hope that they keep the RPG mode from the second one, but make it a LITTLE easier to get some of the jutsus (DAMN YOU KISAME!!! HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO MAKE 3 CANCEL HITS WITH YOU!)

[Code]

Well even though my PS2 is currently out of commission... still looking forward to this games. It'd be nice if it featured some of the recent manga characters (especially considering by the time it comes out, the anime should be in that arc) but probably unlikely. But glad that they included the Sound 5.

[SeruraRenge]

I have to say, the Valley of the End must have the biggest elevation change in the foreground/background than any of the other games. I wonder how it's gonna work out?

[Crush!]

Oh man, that title graphic is AWESOME. I can't wait to play the Naruto/Sasuke arc out. With Gekitou 4, this is gonna be a good winter.

[lapiz]

I just hope they change the ultimate system.. Why do I have to ripp the skin out of my palm in order to win anyway? It was impossible to stop an ultimate from going to its next sequence in nh2..

I'd also like more ingame joutsus per character. And some kagebunshin tricks for Naruto.
And in game transformations, not seperate characters for each stage, i.e. no Kyuubi no Naruto as a seperate char. By in game trans i mean them not requiring an ultimate to be activated. Just a button combination like its being done in Gekitou Ninja Taisen..

[NadaNuff]

I'm excited about this game, but I am worried that they might not have enough room on the disk to put in animated sequences for the new supers. I wasn't a fan of the "charging up" from NH2 in place of supers.

My copy is already pre-ordered, and winter can't get here fast enough.

[lapiz]

Gamespot posted an article about nh3, in which it is confirmed that:
Naruto, Sasuke and Gaara are playable chars(phew, I am truly relieved to read that :p )
Nh3 introduces as a new in-game system a "new technique called the "Ultimate Ninjitsu.""

..maybe thats what ougis/ultimates are called in nh3, or its an addition to the existing ougis.

Don't worry about disk space. NH2 didn't even take up half the disk...

Kool, thanx.

[The Wanderer]

If what you saif is true, lopsew, and if Bandai play the right cards, the NH3 will be a hell of a kickass game, however we don't have enough info, only something about "Ultimate Ninjutsu". I only hope that they remove the teammates in the ougis . . .

Ohh dammit :amuse

[lapiz]

Preorders are now available at Play-Asia.com (http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-40-77-2-15-Naruto-70-yw0-43-3.html)!

In addition, nh3 will be exhibited in Tokyo Game Show which begins tommorow and lasts for a whole 3 days(September 16,17 and 18) so expect first pics and some new gameplay elements to be revealed in the very near future.

[SeruraRenge]

Here is what I posted on GameFAQs for what I wanted to be put in.

This is other than the stuff that we KNOW is gonna be in it (Kyuubi lvl 2, Curse Seal lvl 2, Sound 5, Suiken Lee....dun see why not?)

1. No repeats (in fact, take out some of the unneeded characters, like Shizune for example)

2. Give Kabuto specials (I mean, he had plenty of moves for him to have specials in the 2nd one, but they gave him the shaft)

3. Bring back the old way of doing supers. Button mashing does not show how skillful you are, it just shows how fast you are.

4. Bring the blood back (If you noticed, Orochimaru's pain genjutsu was far more violent and painful looking in the first one)

5. Characters from the Akatsuki Arc (Deidara, Sasori, Time-Skip Naruto and Sakura, Kakashi wit Mangekyou Sharingan)

6. Ultimate Jutsu better not be a copy of that fucking Dragon Rush from Budokai 3, in which the CPU always spams it and fights then get boring.

Here is my idea on Kimimaro:

He is constantly draining life (but not too fast), due to his blood illness (I mean a disease in the blood stream, it has nuthin to do with his clan), however, he is insanely powerful. Using yur lvl 3 special puts you into Curse Seal lvl 2, which, although after using the special, you will go back to full HP, you also only have 10 seconds before a MASSIVE drain takes away all yur HP (drain begins immediately after going back to fight from special). However, being in CS2 gives you SO MUCH speed and power that 10 seconds should be plenty of time.

Here is what his 3rd (final) special should look like:

First, he is standing in CS1 , coughs into his hand, and looks at his blood. Then he says his line "Even if I were to die, I would remain in Orochimaru-sama's heart forever". He then goes CS2 and tackles the opponent like he did Gaara. Next screen. Now, he performs Tessenka no Mai, wraps the enemy with his spine, then pierces them with with giant spear (the one that's his strongest bone). Next/Last screen. Finally, he performs Sawarabi no Mai, and will appear out of one of the bones trees, saying "It's not brainwashing, it's my own reasoning. WHAT THE HELL WOULD YOU KNOW!!!!" When he says the final part, the camera should do a close-up on his eye, and have the camera all shaky. Anyone who has seen enough anime will know what I'm talking about.

[Axass]

1. No repeats (in fact, take out some of the unneeded characters, like Shizune for example)
The more the merrier. No reason to take out old characters since they have space enough in the disk.

2. Give Kabuto specials (I mean, he had plenty of moves for him to have specials in the 2nd one, but they gave him the shaft)
Kabuto doesn't have specials in the second one? That sucks.

3. Bring back the old way of doing supers. Button mashing does not show how skillful you are, it just shows how fast you are.
Yeah I heard everybody saying that the first one had a better system for the supers. Button mashing sucks in games when you should need skills.

4. Bring the blood back (If you noticed, Orochimaru's pain genjutsu was far more violent and painful looking in the first one)
Yeah.

5. Characters from the Akatsuki Arc (Deidara, Sasori, Time-Skip Naruto and Sakura, Kakashi wit Mangekyou Sharingan)
That's not gonna happen, bot GNT and NH follow the anime, not the manga.

6. Ultimate Jutsu better not be a copy of that fucking Dragon Rush from Budokai 3, in which the CPU always spams it and fights then get boring.
Never played Budokai games.

Cool!

[SeruraRenge]

yeah, but she was USELESS! I mean, she had her poison breath, but that was the only thing she had goin for her.
Kabuto doesn't have specials in the second one? That sucks.

yeah, it does
Yeah I heard everybody saying that the first one had a better system for the supers. Button mashing sucks in games when you should need skills.

its true. The first game's system was a combination of Parappa the Rapper and and few other games.
That's not gonna happen, bot GNT and NH follow the anime, not the manga.
Not true. The second game had Kyuubi Rasengan, Dark Chidori, the Orochimaru laugh for Sasuke....umm.....Gai's six gates (but with a wierd top-spin thing at the end). These were all WAYY before the anime got to em. I mean, the last one STILL isn't in the anime yet!
Never played Budokai games
then you'll have to take my word for it
Cool!
Thanks:smile-big ! It's always nice to hear some positive criticism. That took me a bit to figure out which parts to put in the special.

Here is my newest ultimate idea, Sakon/Ukon:

Okay, first they go CS lvl 2, and use Tarenken on the opponent. Next screen. They split up and combo on you with the Do Re Mi strike, only they both do it at the same time. Next screen. Finally, Ukon's head is sticking out of the enemy. Now this is where it gets interesting, because it make using his ultimate a gamble. You and your opponent have do both do a bunch of button-matching (in other words, if square shows up, you press square, if X, you press X, etc etc). The one who got the most right in a ten second interval wins. Now, if Sakon/Ukon wins, his protein destruction attack works, and blood sprays out of the opponent, with Ukon then standing over, his foot on their back. However, if the opponent wins, he takes out a kunai and stabs himself, and both the opponent and Sakon/Ukon take MASSIVE damage after the special is over.

[Lord James]

Yeah! The title graphic was awesome!! I love the look of the kyuubi rasengan!

I hope they would improve the whole fighting system. We don't want button mashing, we want sheer tactics, deception and chakra conserving! I hope the chakra won't be easy to drain out, and that we don't have to charge up every 10 seconds.

It would be cool if they invented a new jutsu system that requires u to activate a certain series of hand seals to activate a jutsu!:drool Imagine having to hold L1 and pressing a series of buttons to summon Gamabunta! I would be the BEST game EVER! But I think that would be too hard, since some jutsus' hand seals are not confirmed yet.

The thing that they MUST implement is a system that lets players make specials WITHOUT hitting the opponents first. And if they did that, we would be able to make specials go face to face ie RASENGAN VS CHIDORI:nuts If they don't add that to the game, I WILL KILL BANDAI!!! But I'm sure we will be able to do that, since the theme of this game is Naruto vs Chidori, right??:amuse
...or won't we??:notrust

[lapiz]

KingJames, i tottaly agree with you.

The Ultimates' cutseens as they are in nh2 are really long and boring.. Plus its stupid to just watch your char get his ass handed to him just because u got hit only once. It would be much much more interesting if all jutsus were in-game. Even more in-game than they are in GNT3..

Lastly, my uber wish, wich i've already stated but i really want 'em in, is in-game-transformations. Gate opening/Kyubi/Curse Seal activating with button combinations like budokai games.
Its stupid the way it is in nh3. First u get to pwn ur enemy with a lvl3 ultimate which takes up half his lifebar, and then u get so uber powered that the remaining lifebar can go down just by blindly button mashing. The other guy has no chance of surviving if u get to hit him only once! Plainly stupid..

if you want a game like GNT3, then PLAY THAT! The whole point of Narutimate Hero/2/3 is to give a completely different form of play.

*cough* Anyway, here is my third character Hi-Ougi (i'm gonna say that from now on. It just sounds so much cooler than Ultimate) and a Lvl 2 Ougi.

Lee's 2nd Ougi (lvl 2 special)

First, he says he needs to take his medicine, then drinks the sake. He stumbles around, and charges the opponent, knocking them down by surprise. Next screen. He lies down and seemingly falls asleep. The enemy goes close, and he then knocks them down in an instant. Next screen. He yells at the opponent "I'M IN A SPRINGTIME OF YOUTH!" then does the hand-stand rapid kick (which is an actual technique in the Suiken style), then does a last kick, knocking them away, with him yelling "HA-CHOOOO!!!"

Kakashi's Hi-Ougi (lvl 3 special)

Replacing his Raikiri, which is now his lvl 2, is his Mangekyou Sharingan. It shows Kakashi and the opponent in a forest. Kakashi creates his Mangekyou, and uses the spacial warping jutsu on the opponent. Their arm explodes, resulting in a massive spraying of blood (duh). Next screen. His eyes straining, with huge vein around it, he performs an extremely upgraded version of it, which leaves a giant path of destruction, complete with a rut in the ground.

[Sir.Cruz]

I would like all of the people here to know two things.....

The moment I saw it was orderable, I had it.

And

This game will be ungodly great.

:laugh

[lopsew]

yeah, but she was USELESS! I mean, she had her poison breath, but that was the only thing she had goin for her.
Well, she does have an air combo that is basically infinite. She is one of my favorite characters to use, and VERY USEFUL if you know how to use her...

In NH2, I OWN with her, Kiba, and Kakashi, although not as much with Kakashi...

The characters I didn't like in that game were Kankuro, Ino, and of course, Itachi, but only because those three were SUPER cheap...

I believe NH2 came out about episode 100, so it's hard to say whether it's based on the anime or manga. I think that some of the supers (Gai's Gates, Kisame's Shark Jutsu, and Ukon doing his Do-Re-Mi combo during Oro's super) in the game had yet to be released in the anime at the time...

it also has Sasuke's Dark Chidori (or black chidori, CS lvl2 Chidori...whatever)

BTW, have you even gotten to/beaten the fight where you have to do 3 cancel hits with Kisame in order to get his shark jutsu? If so.....any tips?????

[Lord James]

BTW, have you even gotten to/beaten the fight where you have to do 3 cancel hits with Kisame in order to get his shark jutsu? If so.....any tips?????
I recommend u to use Kisame too. By doing that, your attacking animations will be the same as ur opponent, thus making timing easier.

The reason I didn't buy GNT3 was because I don't have a Gamecube. That's why I've been relying on ps2 games.:sad

That's the problem, I'm not a very good Kisame player. I'm much better with Neji, Lee, Gai, and Zabuza.

Zabuza is very similar, he just has a bit less range, and he seems to have faster strikes, so would he work?

[Lord James]

Here's another tip:
Use Kisame, then wait for him to charge towards you. counter him with the O button EXACTLY when he started to attack you (with the O button), If your timing is perfect, you will get a cancel hit.

The second important tip is to wait for him to make a move. After every clash, retreat and wait for him to attack you again, and so on.

And try to counter him with the exact type of attack. I mean, when he runs and attacks, try to do the same. Also do so when he attacks while standing still.

You just need a bit of luck and patience. Don't get frustrated when you don't get the first few times. If it really doesn't work at all, just lower the difficulty.

And if it STILL doesn't work, I'm gonna kill you.:sarc

[SeruraRenge]

I believe awesome is the only word that can be used to describe it. Also....can Sasuke fly in the game now....or what, I dunno?

[lapiz]

Real time Chidori for Sasuke this time, YES!! And it looks really sweet. Seems like the graphics went up a notch too. Great find!

Kyuubi Naruto 2 looks awesome.. Tottaly different move list from Naruto. Might be a different char though.. Hopes for a transformation after the ultimate he does in the 2nd and 3rd picture..

[lopsew]

About the whole what's it based on question, I'm honestly thinking this game will be based on the manga...

You look at the presentation of these games as opposed to the GameCube Naruto games. The characters have a much more "sketched" appearance in NH. The intros to each battle in NH always have a manga page style background. Plus, I believe MANY of the supers in NH1 had not been shown in the anime at that time. You look at the Sound Five (minus Kimi) in NH2 being added as helper characters for Oro as well as being featured in one of Oro's supers. I can GUARANTEE you their attacks had NOT YET been introduced in the anime when the game was released. Another example I have is when you look at Shikamaru's Level 3 Super which had Asuma just ripping the shit out of the opponent. Asuma finishes it by tossing his cigarette in the opponent's blood, something that was shown in the manga but NOT in the anime.

This is more of me just hoping that it IS based on the manga so that we will see the NEW manga characters in NH3, but there are ALOT of things I've seen from the previous two games that would show it is based on the manga...

Also, if I remember correctly, even NH1 had Kage Kubi Shibari no Jutsu for Shikamaru. NH1 came out when the anime was around episode 60, and that move wasn't shown with him using it until 122!

[Lord James]

Wow! Just...wow! The game looks awesome! Unfortunately, in seems that at least some moves aren't real time. I hope Naruto can use Kage Bunshins in real time, but I think not in this game.

And why is the Black Chidori not black? It looks purple, but I thought they would make it look like in the manga.

And real time chidori for sasuke? COOL!

1. If you want real-time, go play the GC Naruto games.
2. Dark Chidori (I call it dark because it's a little more correct, since it runs off of dark power) was purple in the last game as well.

[Shounen Bat]

wow... a winter release? excellent! i may just ask for a special christmas present... or at least the money to import it. i love nh2, and from what i've seen of nh3, its gonna be just as good. i also would like to see the return of the ougi system from nh1. i never played it, but it's better than button mashing... my roommate always beats me that way.

[Sir.Cruz]

That's the problem, I'm not a very good Kisame player. I'm much better with Neji, Lee, Gai, and Zabuza.

Zabuza is very similar, he just has a bit less range, and he seems to have faster strikes, so would he work?
Lee and Sasuke.... Maybe even Naruto work well for that mission. Just use the one with the least juiced attack power and randomly throw a one-shot jab at Kisame now and then. 3 cancles happened for me on the third try in that manner.:amuse

[Shounen Bat]

this is kinda off-topic, but i've found that the three cancels came easiest for me when i used hinata's up-circle attack... overall, i got more times where i got at least two per match. three should come soon after.

[lapiz]

1. If you want real-time, go play the GC Naruto games.
2. Dark Chidori (I call it dark because it's a little more correct, since it runs off of dark power) was purple in the last game as well.


Real time Jutsus isn't the only difference between Naurtimate Hero and Gekitu Ninja Taisen series. The Gameplay is tottaly different, plus not too many people own a GC. The Narutimate Hero is much more fast, has items and overall has the "Naruto feel" more than the GC game. Ninja Taisen is a 3d fighter. Tottaly different games. Stop Jumping on people who happen to expect different improvements from this game.. Not only your ideas are good.

I complety Agree with you guys. Cause it does have a Drawed look. And Shikamaru Had Kage Kubi in NH2 and NH1 and that was way before the anime showed it.

[SeruraRenge]

I complety Agree with you guys. Cause it does have a Drawed look. And Shikamaru Had Kage Kubi in NH2 and NH1 and that was way before the anime showed it.
yup, that move is the biggest piece of proof that the game follows the manga.

[Chiru]

Yeah! I bet we'll see Sasori and Deidei. Maybe even some post timeskip characters. By the time the game comes out we might have seen more of the rookies. I'd love to fight post timeskip Konohamaru vs the pre timeskip Naruto. Fun fight.

[Kaki]

1. If you want real-time, go play the GC Naruto games.
Acctualy you can modify him to have the in game chidori, or anyone else (except a few charge charachters and Lee) to have a large set of mixed justus.

If they do use charachters from the latest manga it could be very interesting becouse they have not shown their style in the anime, then again, the fighting styles are mostly just invented by the developers so-all the more reason for them to include some of the latest. The fourth could be a charge charachter- don't realy need anymore of those. I can imagine Kakashi's new justus as his second ouigi with a sideeffect like Itachi's tsukiyomi....

That Link Proves that Sasuke and Sasuke CSLv2 are not separate entities nor are naruto and Kyubi naruto.
I hope that they don't just put all the enphisis on the Naruto and Sasuke.

the page has been updated... there are new screens:
in-game rasengan, kage bunshin combos, chidori vs. rasengan in-game
etc
^^

[Moondoggie]

I really enjoyed Narultimate Hero 2, so I am really excited for thr 3rd Installment, though I am worried about the roster a bit.

[Id]

Yeah this game donst look to shaby. I might pick it up!

[kagemane1]

The game looks so awesome. The stuggles should be a nice thing to add. The Graphics are mind bottling.

[uchiha_shikaku]

damn... i've want to get the first two and now theres three. oh well.

[Kaki]

What do you all think of the Camera angles in those shots? Surly still 2d but insane improvements in the animation!
I can't wait.

[SeruraRenge]

Neither can I. We need a release date....hopefully a soon one!

[Kaki]

I belive I heard it would be winter but the last to were relesed in late october or November if I recall correctly, I am realy hoping for this closer relese date- it would be consistant.

Merry Christmas :amuse

Do you know if liksang or playasia are preparing pre-order gifts ?? Because I'm buying this, definately . . .

[Kaki]

They may be planning shuch gifts but I did't get anyting when I preordered Narutimate Hero 2 so I don't know how reliable their claims may be.

[joker555]

does anyone know any of the new charecters in one. And is there a progrom or chip i can put in my ps2 to translate the language.

does anyone know any web sites for this game or know any new charecters. Oh and the relese date

[Chiru]

No.... -____-

[SeruraRenge]

1. don't double-post, ESPECIALLY if it's about the same thing.
2. We don't know anything about absolutely new characters, but we have seen CS2 Sasuke and Kyuubi2 Naruto.

[The Wanderer]

We would tell you if we knew soemthign new about it.

Btw, do you think that some of the jutsus some characters have in the N:NH series will be used for the manga ? (Ex: Ino's Shinobi Hanatori Kaputo and her Ninpou Jyakaroran, Shikamaru's Kage Giyi no Jutsu, Neji's Hakkeshou Hachimon Ougi, Lee's Shin Ura Renge, etc . . .)

That would be soooooooooo good don't ya think ? :amuse

[dogmare]

sigh, it looks like they'll be using the button mashing during the super moves again... sigh, hope am wrong :((

[Kaki]

Yea some of that will definently happen, for example Kisame used a shark attack I think after the game was releced (or at lest after its production), they thus may add his water summoning technique prior to the attack. Or not....

[Oto]

Hi guys... erm i am new here, sorry for digging old post and if i posted at wrong section.. after seeing the post u all must be pro in Narutimate Hero 2 game bah ? eh i need some help manzzz.. i can't get the last 2 characters...can anyone help mi ? beside haku and zabuza those 2...

[Seany]

gamefaqs.com will most likely have ur answer

[Kaki]

My simple advise is go around to all the countries and talk to everyone. And beat gai in the handstand race.

[Chiru]

Give me info on each of those moves!!! Pwease!

[SeruraRenge]

Give me info on each of those moves!!! Pwease!
Ino: Her first one is her throwing the Wolfsbane flower, while the seond is her father coming in and doing that move that lets him control ppl without leaving or endangering his own body.

Shikamaru: Well, this one is hard to explain. Basically, Shikamaru uses his shadows to create these clones of him that attack (try to remember Peter Pan's shadow, cuz it's just like that)

Neji: The double Hakke move he used to slaughter those spiders. It was fucking awesome.

Lee: Basically, he powers up to the extreme, and starts moves so fast that time can't keep up with him, and there are distortions of his body that follow and attack with him. Also, his speed seems to rip apart the air itself. If I find a pic of this, I'll post it.

[Chiru]

O_O Oooh! I have the game, but I can't even imagine! My game freezes when I do specials... -_-

[SeruraRenge]

Well, IGN didn't have most of em, but it did have Ino's special.

I will try to find the others.

EDIT: So far, no more vids. However, I found this
http://img2.kult-mag.com/photos/00/00/49/01/ME0000490121_2.jpg
That's the beginning of Shikamaru's shadow thing.

[The Captain]

Yeah,that shadow attack creates two shadow kage-bunshins to attack for him.
But his most powerful attack is that tornado crushing thingy..

[lapiz]

Pazuzu posted Release Date and Price in his Topic o' info (http://forums.narutofan.com/showthread.php?t=38310&page=2):

Sry if this is old...BUT I CHECK IT EVERYDAY! lol:smile-big

[lo0p]

I really hope we can get an english version of this game someday. I can't believe crap like Marvel Nemesis gets distributed all over the world but games like NH3 are stuck in Japan.

[MechaTC]

threads merged.

[SeruraRenge]

I finally found a place that has vids of some of the coolest specials (including Lee's awesome move)

[ShadelessNyght]

Major thanks for finding that website. That just definatly made me want to pick up the game and spend the money for the swap disks, since I was hesistant at first. Watching the tournement videos they had right now. :smile-big

[Feri]

there were comercials of this game on jap. TV too. I downloaded it, its about 45seks, I could upload it on megaupload 4 u guys if u would want that.

do you mean for NH2 or 3? If 3, then by all means, upload it.

EDIT: don't forget to get the combo epic from that site. It has about 15 of the specials in it.

Also, where was that song in the Combo Epic, "Shining", from? It sounds very familiar.

[Feri]

its NH3 but its only 15 seconds not 45:laugh
here:http://www.megaupload.com/?d=ESFXE2KU

there were also Naruto RPG2 and Naruto Card Game Comercials, I could upload them too:tem

[Cthulhu-versailles]

Arg another naruto game.... there ok but they need to either change the damn format or release another series, like in the way megaman did with megaman x.

It's great will be able to use the pwnaginage chars, but all the characters this time better have EVERY single one of there jutsu, I mean every single one. AND please put a function so you don't need to watch the damn supermove animation everytime. It's so annoying for when me and my friend are playing the game, and it's only really fun if we both decide to fight without supermoves. With are customed characters... Lee Vs itachi! and Shino vs Sakura.

the most skilled don't need Supers to win.

[Kaki]

super moves are not bad-they are a good way to gain an advantage, but not too much if they players are close in skill....you need the vids for the button mashing screen or you could just disable them by changeing the triangle button to darts or something...

[SeruraRenge]

Also, for the person saying before my last post that we should change the format, it's been done. We call it Gekitou Ninja Taisen. If you hate the specials, don't play this game, because it is one of the most important aspects of the system.

Hmm.. I think u must delete/edit your post since the video you uploaded is for Naruto: Uzumaki Ninden, and not for Naruto: Narutimate Hero 3. They are two completely different games.

[Kaki]

Gekitou Ninja Taisen acctualy came first I belive....

[Urahara_Kisuke]

Which opening theme do you guys/gals think we will get for the 3rd Installment?

I am hoping for Seishun Kyosokyoku or Nami Kaze Satellite.

[Feri]

Hmm.. I think u must delete/edit your post since the video you uploaded is for Naruto: Uzumaki Ninden, and not for Naruto: Narutimate Hero 3. They are two completely different games.

wooo.. how many games will come out now?:blink
Is Naruto: Uzumaki Ninden a RPG or Beat'em Ump`?

[ShadelessNyght]

Man...I am sorry but after watching the Combo Epic video...I am no longer sure if I like GNT more then NH now, and I don't even own NH (Though right now I'm sure as hell about to pick it up).

Though with the American one coming out for less hassel soon, can anyone give me info on who the character line up was for the first game just incase they release that one?

[Splyte]

naruto, sasuke, sakura, kakashi, lee, hinata, neji, zabuza, haku, gaara, orochimaru and shikamaru

[Kaki]

Yea man, go for the third one its worth the extra hassle. I think the game will feature the current opening for sure. Thats just the pattern they follow.

[ShadelessNyght]

Works for me, I just hope my normal bad luck doesn't strike and I magically end up messing up my ps2, lol.

[lapiz]

wooo.. how many games will come out now?:blink
Is Naruto: Uzumaki Ninden a RPG or Beat'em Ump`?


Uzumaki Ninden is already available for u to purchase(only the jap version) and is a full 3D with no Cell-Shading Action/RPG Game featuring a filler story with Naruto as the playable char as well as Shikamaru, Neji, Chouji, Gaara, Sasuke, Kakashi as support chars.. It has no VS mode..

[Kaki]

This game is going to have a tie in with the 14th series of the Naruto TCG!!! I can't wait for that either.

[SeruraRenge]

As I started on page 3, here is another what-if Ougi set.

Time-skip Sakura (or as many call her, Smashy-Smashy!)

Level 1

Phase 1: Sakura straps on her gloves, then says "I'll make this quick". She leaps up and punches the ground with such force that it leaves a crater 50ft in diameter.
Phase 2: Sakura looks around for the enemy (he's hiding), and says "Left? Right? Above?....BELOW!" and completely shatters the ground around her, exposing the opponent, with him having a HUGE white eye (like Kakashi did). She then punches the opponent in the face, sending him/her flying.

Level 2

Phase 1: Sakura gets surrounded by poison gas. The enemy is in there too. In order to get rid of the gas, she lets off an explosive tag right in front of her, hurting the opponent as well.
Phase 2: Chiyo-baa appears and throws Sakura the sealing orb. Sakura throws it at the opponent, which pins him to a wall, as well as immobilizes him and seals his chakra. She then beats the living hell out of him while he's there.

Level 3

Phase 1: Sakura is pretty beat up (somehow), so she heals herself with Tsunade's restorative jutsu. She then uppercuts the opponent as he/she was about to get her.
Phase 3: The enemy comes at Chiyo-baa with a sword. Sakura jumps in and gets impaled through the stomach. The enemy smiles, but then sees Sakura is smiling and holding onto their arm. Sakura then punches the enemy's face with so much force that it breaks their neck.

[Chiru]

I sure hope they confirm some characters soon...

[Seany]

wow! nice lapiz! it all looks so good!

[Kaki]

WOW! man I can't get over that new ramen shop level! Again they uped the graphics and its tooks much larger. Soon I hope to see the sound 5 in action!

[Chiru]

The graphics looks awesome! I really hope to see Obito and young Kakashi in it. Hopefully some post time skip characters as well. I'd love to fight post timeskip Konohamaru vs Pre timeskip Naruto or Sasuke.

[SeruraRenge]

Okay, this is technically a question for NH2, but I was he last one to post in that topic, and I dun wanna be a double-poster. Besides, if I edit, no one will notice it way down there.

Anyway, I've seen some tournaments, and I noticed that one had Neji, but his partner was Kidoumaru. How does one achieve this? I wanna know so that I can have Sakon/Ukon as a partner for my Kankuro.

[kataimiko]

So, these games are strictly in Japanese with no english language options?

I have no clue how to read Kanji :bored :crying

But I'm willing to go to any length to be able to play these games.

[SeruraRenge]

They're easy enough to figure out.

NH1 understanding level: None needed, this one is a basic fighter

NH2 understanding level: despite the fact that 1-player is an RPG mode, as long as you have seen up to episode 96, you will know what to do for the most part. If not, use the old RPG strategy "Talk to everyone until someone gives a different response than they normally do"

[kataimiko]

damnit, America probably won't see these in English for 5 years at this rate. I might as well go learn basic kanji.

You just have orochimaru fight orochimaru 30(acctualy only 3) times in Vs. mode.

Guess you can add drunken Lee (can you???) and young Kakashi to the list, no filler characater, no movie characters (no that I want to play with them) no time skip characters.

[blind51de]

This game seriously needs new filler jutsus. And rerecording of the stock ougi's from the prequels.

And it's not funny how much I'm going to pwn Konohamaru. But it will be very enjoyable.

[Splyte]

no anbu kakashi, sealed oro, maito suit naruto, or succesor hinata anymore? just wondering

[Parn1024]

I captured the list from website, because now is off.
I have modified it, now is more organized:

List of characters (http://img429.imageshack.us/img429/7798/lista8zm.jpg) :smile-big

[Ziko]

Maito suit naruto is still there.
I cant wait!
But its too good to be true actually...
I mean 1,2,3,4 and 5th hokage???

[Splyte]

yeah just saw the pic and found maito suit still there, but wow! yondaime and chouji's pills in his ougi look great

as for yondaime though, how will he sound? since he hasnt appeared/spoken in the anime?

[Kaki]

ohh thats a good question we'll just have to wait to hear, and I hope he can do more than charge...
With Kurenai being playable Sakura may have to give back her 3ed special which she stole form her for no reason...

[fmoidu]

how can the fourth be in there? is this some sort of wicked joke?

are there any cached versions of the page in google? i can't believe that they would first post the ENTIRE list, and then remove it.

[Chillin]

This seems pretty vicious with all the characters and what not, and I did enjoy the gameplay of the second one. I just wish I had the money to import this. Guess I'll have to wait for a couple of years for it to come to the states.

[Kaki]

You could try looking for a download or burned copy on Ebay, about 2 years ago I got the first one for about $15 on ebay. But you'd be pretty poor if you can't afford ONE great game. Sorry man.
And, No man it seems legit, he just migh not have oiugis. As for his voice it may be premired or at least substituted, Tazmo can say GTN is more popular and there may be much more of it at cons but NH is the favored game and gets befifits, such as the tie in with the card game, and such alsome splecial charachters. Thats the way the go always raising the bar.

[~ Masamune ~]

All the hokages.YONDAIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! zOMFG OMFG ..........!!!!!!! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAA HAPPY

[Steel Guardian]

4th Hokage?! In the words of Cartman: "KICKASS!!" I hope Young Kakashi and Obito are in this.

Very good character list!

[Hagi]

hmmm i really need to get this :woo

[Chiru]

no anbu kakashi, sealed oro, maito suit naruto, or succesor hinata anymore? just wondering

Maito Suit Naruto and ANBU Kakashi are still there. It is NOT young Kakashi. :amuse

[Splyte]

alright kool, just sorta figured it was from what people were syaing but i like anbu kakashi better anyways

[Manetheren]

Ichidaime - The First


Shodai Hokage.

no such thing as Ichidaime.

[Mongoloid Gnome]

Meh, that's what I get from copy lists at GF's boards without double checking errors. I deserve a good educational spanking. bunshin -> :spank <- me
I seriously need to get this game.

[lo0p]

Kurenai AND Anko...now all the hot kunoichis are in :smile-big

Too bad the game isn't comming out until LATE DECEMBER! :mad

[Yamainu]

Seems like a great game...

[Kaki]

Too bad shishi rendan is dead....

[kagemane1]

Looks pretty sweet. I still wish they had more characters but adding the 4th helps a lot to the game.

Also how can I play this on my american PS2?

Weeeeee !!! Yondaime will be playable, that's great news

I'm pre-ordering this and that's final :amuse

Do you think we'll be able to see "future jutsus" for the Rookie 9 + Team Gai ?

[Kaki]

Do you think we'll be able to see "future jutsus" for the Rookie 9 + Team Gai ? NO, but gai can open gates in his special.

$65 you can preorder and it ships free worldwide!!! Done!

lol They better have a code to get every character again.
Shure thing. That dose realy help when there are no memory cards at the Cons.

gonna make finding yur next objective as hard as hell! I would't say that much, just a new demension hopefuly you can follow it with a bit of lucky navagateing and knowledge of the storyline.

all their vids were archived onto a site I listed on...I think it was page 5. Thanks for the link, but I was thinking more of the creation of new ones, and a bit the small forum there. Do you know why the site closed?

[Tau]

Oh man this game looks wKd cnt wait to get my hands on this one, the graphics look EVEN more amazin (even tho they wer great on NH2:thumbs). New fighting style... kool cnt wait to see how it plays......Will be getting NH3 wen its released!

[SeruraRenge]

I was playing NH2 today. Using my best character, Kankuro. All I have to say about how I did: :kukuku

[Kaki]

Thanks for shareing, do you abuse poison? Now I am addicted to the spoilers for this game.

[SeruraRenge]

Thanks for shareing, do you abuse poison? Now I am addicted to the spoilers for this game.
Not too much. It's mostly because I've maxed out his speed and strength stats.

[Kaki]

Well Yea! Its not fair if the other charachters are not equally well leveled. I put all of mine (except sannin and Itachi/ Kisame, and Sandaime.) at:
Strenth 2
Speed MAX
chakara 4
Resistance 3
Defence MAX
Items MAX

It gets fairly insane when we play on this beefed up mode....

[Chiru]

Does anyone else have problems with NH2 freezing up while using supers?

[K'Dash]

Hey folks.

http://www.cyberconnect2.jp/naruto3/char/char.html

Drunk Lee, Skinny Chouji, new stuff for Kakashi, sounds and such.

judging by the looks of things, the sounds start without CS.

yay.

[Sylvanelf]

Hey guys, I think you are assuming too much about playable characters. Characters like Anko and Yondaime might just be support characters, or just appear in the game somewhere. We've had no confirmation that they are playable characters. Regardless, this game will kick ass. I just wish there was some part 2 stuff thrown in there ( I really wanted to play with Deidara).

[Lord Itachi]

will this game be any good? sounds pretty awesome

[SeruraRenge]

Does anyone else have problems with NH2 freezing up while using supers?
Yeah, I do. Although, I always thought it was because mine is a burned version.

Also, in a pic at the site, it shows 2 disks. One is obviously the game, but what's the other....a bonus OAV?

[MS81]

it is a ova probaly this year jump ova.

Does anyone else have problems with NH2 freezing up while using supers?
I did only when my disc was realy dirty and scratched. ..

[Aeron]

Hey guys, I think you are assuming too much about playable characters. Characters like Anko and Yondaime might just be support characters, or just appear in the game somewhere. We've had no confirmation that they are playable characters. Regardless, this game will kick ass. I just wish there was some part 2 stuff thrown in there ( I really wanted to play with Deidara).

all the characters are confirmated
in the main page they appeared in the official char list but they putted out the list :P

there was a video of the game... i forget the url but it is on gamefaqs forums :P

Isn't it amazing how short Japanese commercials are.

this game will be so much better than the gekitou ninja taisen series. i have gnt2 and nh2 and by far enjoy nh2 more. fighting system looks like the same to me though, don't know what you guys are talking about. check the screens of the ougi's or whatever, like when super naruto and super sasuke are throwing rasengan against chidori, it clearly shows at the bottom that you're supposed to mash the O button. i assume this will be a random button like in NH2.

i can see them throwing in a movie character from the second naruto movie in this because Dotou was in the last one. i really hope they don't. i also found the successor hinata super useless and hope she's dropped as well. aside from that i hope all the genin characters are back, even though ino is retarded, i'd like to throw her at the mercy of tayuya and the other sound.

i can't see the other jounin being in it, anko and asuma and such, because the manga hasn't given us enough of their abilities to go with. i seriously doubt we'll be seeing any of the akatsuki until NH4 (please please) and then, it'll probably be all the akatsuki plus the two new kids recently introduced in the last few chapters.

it sucks that we have to wait, but i accidentally wiped my game data on NH2... (このゲムデタが壊ります。) so i guess i can wait as i now have a lot of catching up to do unlocking all the characters and buying all the gashapons and sound effects and stuff.
（sob)

[Kaki]

it clearly shows at the bottom that you're supposed to mash the O button. i assume this will be a random button like in NH2. That is more of an in game thing, other wise for example, in sasuke's special his opponet would be doing Rasenga (Rock lee?) No they still have not truely revealed. I am hopeing they convert some charge charachters and don't make too many new ones.
btw there is a code to get all the charachters...
Thanks for the vid.

[SeruraRenge]

Also, the video shows a power struggle (kinda) between the Garouga and Rashoumon.

[Chiru]

Thanks. I cleaned my disk and it works better.

[blind51de]

The other solution to that would've been that your modchip (if you have one) is already broke'd. So be happy it was just the disc.

[Kaki]

Would't that just cause it to not play?

[tigerwoo]

this game is going to rule the school like a power tool

[Lord Itachi]

i want this so bad!!!!! *drools*

[SeruraRenge]

Thanks. I cleaned my disk and it works better.
Unfortunately, that only keeps it good for so long. It seems to freeze the most for Naruto's Rasengan.

[Sasuto]

I HATE THOSE FREAKIN JAPANESE! ARG!! that game looks AMAZING!!!!! but nOooOOo they can't send it over here right now they have to wait another 3 years like they did whit NH1 damn they suck...they have the newest NH(nh3) coming out this years and next year in US and canada we have the OLDEST one ....COME'ON..i dont wanna buy a fuckin jap ps2 or a damn chip that will totaly break my ps2 lol...and the swapdisk actually suck, well thats what i heard...and its pretty expensive...


the thing is that you need to open ? your ps2 and then put a something to replace the other something that you already have AND THEN make the swap disk thing...and all that for a game that you understand NOTHING so that you need to check on gamefaqs.com for every single conversation you have in the game...your reading more than your playing..


But i love japanese people at the same time for giving us those incredible game...but why in such a different space of time????? aaarrrrg lol


sorry everyone..i'm feeling better now lol.

[CrAzY_AP]

well that is what i thought^^.... but then i bought tha boot disk, it only takes me about a min. to swap tha diskz now and then you dont really have to read that mutch and it turned out to be worth my investment since i now have NTH1,2 and am about to get 3, but yeah it would be alittle easier to just have tha game in english....

I haven't because I want to make sure that the game really rocks. Rest assured, there's a high chance that many people will join the FC once the game is out, including me:wink

Probably.

you can order it off many web sites.... two well known ones are play-asia.com (www.play-asia.com) and liksang.com (www.liksang.com) (just search Naruto: Narutimate hero 3 for ps2) and you can get a boot disk or mod chip (i hear rumors the mod chip screwz up your ps2) at those sitez or modmonster.com (http://www.modmonster.com/)

[Ryoshi]

thank you I love you so much.

[CrAzY_AP]

well... lookz around.... i love you too... i guess.... runs and hides

[Kaki]

Try http://www.ojgames.com/imagecatalogue/imageview/333894/36/?RefererURL=/article/articleview/960906/
That on for size, it is unbelivable (I say not playable.)

[CrAzY_AP]

ahhh the non-english confuses me, but what tha hell!?!?! it might be like an in-game summon... i dont know... wow thatz nuts!(i was wonderin, saw some of your postz b4 you "changed names" is the guy in your sig and avt you or someone you like alot lol?

[NarutoUzumaki]

OMG that is impossible to beat

[CrAzY_AP]

if you look at the bottom right part of the screen you can see a little bar thing with the square button at the begining of it so i guess it is a in game special by gaara that you like mash square or something....

[SeruraRenge]

I doubt he can breathe out of holes in the sides of his cheeks, so....it's probably not him.

Also, I've seen this image before. It's actually old. My guess is that it's a story mission, cuz it seems too cheap to implement into regular gameplay (unless yur summons come onto the field now too)

[homer simpson]

could this game be downloadable, to be burnt to ps2 format?, if so where?

[Kagalli]

could this game be downloadable, to be burnt to ps2 format?, if so where?

Yes, it should be once it is released and ripped into a format like an iso and probably will be found on sites like torrentreactor or torrentspy.

[SeruraRenge]

Mininova will probably get a hold of it pretty fast too.

I, on the other hand, am actually going to buy this one (unlike the last 2, which were rips of my friend's copy), mostly due to the OVA, and it'll skip less often.

[Seany]

i have a question. I was thinking of getting this game, but i was wondering about swap magic disks and slide card, i have a slimline ps2 and i heard that i just need to put swap magic disk in and replace with japanese game, or do i need to use slide card to? I am worried that it might damage the lens or something, so could someone who has this stuff please explain. Thanks a bunch :)

[Lord Itachi]

will a mod chip work?

[Mongoloid Gnome]

I do not own swap magic. But a modchip will play this game for sure, yeah.

[Seany]

hmmm i dont want a modchip as it will ruin my ps2, i want something simple to use like swap magic and slide card

[Lord Itachi]

mod chips ruin ps2?

[Seany]

well won't i have to open up ps2 to get it in? i dont really want to do that.

[Mongoloid Gnome]

Meh, a bad modified ps2 will mostly like stop working after a while.

[blind51de]

I've had two PS2's modded by stupid-ass Chinatown-referred technical tards. They both broke down within two months.
Now I just huggle my HDD and Flip Top.

[Seany]

well i just bought swap magic since it seems very reliable. Now just gotta wait for this game :)

[Kaki]

with the square button at the begining of it so i guess it is a in game special by gaara that you like mash square or something.... I think it is for holding down for costant shurikens....dosn't matter if it is not playable.
(i was wonderin, saw some of your postz b4 you "changed names" is the guy in your sig and avt you or someone you like alot lol? Dude I did't change names, I was just arbatraraly banned, very irritating btw.... Yea he's Tadanobu Asano as Kakihara, one of my favorite movies and actors, particularly in that role. Pretty hardcore.

[CrAzY_AP]

yeah when i said "changed names" i ment banned.... i wish i could blow smoke like Tadanobu Asano... one of my friendz claimz he can blow it out of his earz.... i just dont see that happinin

this is wierd it says new, but nothing is showing up for me.

you dont see the charecter face shots at all or you just dont see anything new??? maybe your comp messed up the translation

[Chiru]

Itachi is doing what jutsu? Amatarasu?

[Hyuuga Fugen]

the most skilled don't need Supers to win.

:laugh that's right, I fully agree with you.

I love and use tenten (she is not a cheap character). Her supers are average (lv 1 and 2 she is helped by Neji and Lee. But her soshouryu is pretty cool :P )


Far ranged fighters are always good when you know how to use them.

Finally, someone agrees with me on that. Rep for you!

Anyway, I use either Kankuro (if I wanna get back at a guy who just pwnd me), Neji (good all-around guy), or Sarutobi.

However, in this one, I will probably play mostly as Lee (Suiken RULZ!), Sakon/Ukon (my favorite of the 4), Yondaime (DUH), and Sakura (but only if she has time-skip strength)

[Chiru]

Anyone hope for secret characters to be from post timeskip? I really want to rp as post timeskip Sakura! Shino, Kiba, Hinata, Team Gai, etc. Too bad we'll probably need to wait for the next game. Maybe we'll get post timeskip Konohamaru, because otherwise I don't see him being playable.

[ShadelessNyght]

Finally got enough money to Pre-order this and Bleach. I now can't wait to have this Naruto Game as well. Ordered it with 1 to 3 day shipping so I have time to play it over christmas break. Me and my friends are planning on going over my house and playing NH 3 and GNT 4 all day. Will be so great. My Japanese Teacher also said I could bring in NH 3 to class one day, and since the RPG mode and all is fully japanese, we can have a class or two translating the rpg mode as it goes around.

Edit: Also, it looks like Kisame is using some of his moves from the manga time skip. Which makes it even better. And Sakura seems to have the Jutsu she used in the first movie to blow the guy sky high.

You lucky bastard. I have to rely on GameFAQs.

[Kaki]

And you can offten use common sense to figure out the requirements, or serise/game knowledge.
BTW I think supers can be very important for any level of player, just good player don't offten allow them to hit.

[SeruraRenge]

You could also use the tried-and-true RPG info method: talk to everyone in town until someone gives a different answer than they normally would. That's how I got through the second half of NH2, since it is its own unique storyline.

[CrAzY_AP]

yeah my frined that lived in jap when he was like 1-6 alwayz tellz me what they are sayin in tha raws and games but i find he is often wrong... hes alittle rusty

[SeruraRenge]

Bumped.

Still no new news. You think that with the game so close to completion, they would let out a few gameplay vids.

[Kaki]

Yea I could realy go for some video, but patience is the key, I just found an ad clip of NH one on my comp! That sefficed me, I can e-mail it to you if you wish.......I also don't recall any clips for NH2.......

From what it was talking about, it seems like "Ultimate Jutsu" is transforming into CS2 or Kyuubi 2.

[ilabb]

I hope CS2 Sasuke and One-tailed Naruto are going to be their own characters.

And NH2 has like... three Narutos as it is. And two Orochimarus. And two Kakashis. WHY STOP NOW?
