Pre-E3 News: TOMY Announces New Naruto Titles
posted by fandom on may 28 2009, 10:55 am | 42 commentsAccording to IGN, TOMY has announced two new Naruto titles in 2009: one for the Nintendo DS and one for the Nintendo Wii.
Although the IGN article is a little "Naruto ignorant" (by claiming that Akatsuki is "one of the [playable characters]"), it's an exciting read with plenty of images. Hopefully with E3 next week, we'll obtain more information shortly.
Have you played other TOMY/Naruto titles? What do you think the potential of the new games is? Either way, will you buy them when they are released?

Naruto Shippuden: Legends: Akatsuki Rising
posted by Tom on apr 29 2009, 09:10 pm | 52 commentsIf your PSP thought that its days of Sexy Jutsu and spiky blonde hair was behind it, tell that machine it should not be thinking at all because it is not supposed to be cognizant. After you explain why a thinking machine scares our Terminator-loving generation, drop the news that Naruto Shippuden: Legends: Akatsuki Rising is coming to the portable platform this year.
Namco Bandai announced today that VIZ Media is working on the fighter based on the Naruto Shippuden series, which stars an older, wiser Naruto, and will give players control of 10 ninjas including Akatsuki. Not many specifics were available, but you will guide these ninjas through the events of the animated series this fall. Naruto and his pals go after the fifth Kazekage, Gaara, and try to keep a demon sealed inside that Kazekage.
