Naruto CONFIRMED for 360
Posted by: Shikamaru @ 1:56 pm on 4/6/2006
Anime News Network has a new press release from Ubisoft confirming an earlier report that Naruto was coming to the Xbox 360.
Naruto will broaden our portfolio and contribute to achieving our strategic goal of earning 25% of our turnover through licences,†said Christian Salomon, Director of Worldwide Licensing at Ubisoft. “Naruto is part of a wave of Japanese manga and anime that appeals to kids and adolescents alike, and we plan to deliver them every bit of the excitement they have experienced in Naruto’s books, movies and TV shows.”
“I’m confident Ubisoft will manage to create an exciting Naruto game, while respecting the anime’s spirit of passing on positive values and a lot of fun†said Hayato Date, Naruto anime series director.
The title is expected to be released in 2007.

Wow this sounds awsome

I hope they make it like an Action/RPG. Where it has Kingdom Hearts leveling up system and stuff, but has Ninja Gaiden’s combat. That would make an awesome next-gen Naruto in my opinion.

I agree with MA, mostly. I saw the article earlier. Glad I have a 360. Go Top Spin 2! >_>

I hate Xbox with a passion. Is this even getting a Japan release or just strait to the U.S. as a dub-Naruto game?
April 6th, 2006 at 4:01 pm
2007… =sigh= at least they will be more used to programming on the 360 for better(smoother) play
April 6th, 2006 at 4:20 pm

April 6th, 2006 at 5:05 pm

Sry if I’m a bit off topic here… But Shikamaru… Wen is Chapter 302 out? u noe?
April 6th, 2006 at 7:00 pm
Woah, awesome! It would be nice to see a good naruto game with next-gen graphics. Hopefully it’ll be fun to play. I guess I might have to buy a 360 now x_x

This is probably typical for GCN owners to hate XBox and XBox owners to hate GCN. I hate XBox… that’s right, I’m a GCN owner. Even if they bring Naruto to the XBox 360, it won’t really make gamers buy XBox 360 for that alone. Yeah sure, it will have better graphics than the Naruto games we see today. But NGNT is probably going to go onto the Revolution and NH for PS3 likewise. And how will they make the new game without pretty much plagerizing NH and NGNT? The COULD do an action RPG, but they already have something like that for the PS2 and it was less successful than the NH series.

I hope this doesn’t turn into another console argument…
Anyway, I’m surprised that Naruto’s coming to 360. I guess it’s more aimed for the American fanbase than the Japanese fanbase, since in Japan Xbox is, well, not exactly popular.

Nobody in Japan likes the “Halo Box,” so why is Microsoft still trying to sell a console that they know won’t do as well as Gamecube or PS2 in Japan?
April 6th, 2006 at 11:49 pm
so naruto will come out for the 360….well w/e….just means slightly better graphics but by the time it coem out on the 360, nintendo and sony will have released their next-gen consoles….so it won’t be a new thing out..
also rumors have it that Naruto fillers will continue for another season instead of the highly anticipated Kakashi Gaiden series…most Naruto fans at the website i’m at have officially stopped watching naruto for the most part…everyone is running to bleach and other animes…i’m glad though that the naruto manga is still good…:D

No wonder it’s Ubisoft. No sane Japanese company would make a game for an unpopular in Japan console. God be with them and let it be a good game. Though I doubt it.
April 8th, 2006 at 9:48 am
is it coming out on the PS3? Because if it isn’t im gonna scream. Seriously
April 8th, 2006 at 11:13 am
The press release said it’s a 360 exclusive.
April 8th, 2006 at 9:32 pm
i think there is about a 90% chance of it not being the real voices, but again just turned into an american version with bad voices…..however i hope im wrong, next stop once it comes out is my mates house(cos he has an xbox 360!!!!!)
June 6th, 2006 at 10:27 am
i like all the system
