Trivia In the Master Mode, in one of the playable missions, if in a certain conversation with Jiraiya and Tsunade the player answers yes to Jiraiya's question, it will be meet Kasumi again from Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Heroes 2: Phantom Fortress. If the player has a saved file of Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja 4, he will receive letters from Aoi instead of an orphaned girl from a previous mission. Due to time constraints and dubbing issues, the game never released in the US, and the EU version is subtitled, lacking any dubbed tracks. This game is the only one in the Ultimate Ninja series to not have any removed material from the Japanese version: Ultimate Ninja had Naruto's transformation and Sasuke's transformation removed, and re-added as different characters; Ultimate Ninja 2 had Dotō Kazahana removed from the character list, since Ninja Clash In The Land of Snow was not released in the US yet; Ultimate Ninja 3's character's picture were more well-drawn, and the game also came with an OVA giving hints of the Ultimate Contest's crystals locations; and Ultimate Ninja 4 had a separate Plus version with remastered soundtrack.
I will never forget this masterpiece game the fast-paced combat is what makes it perfect too (not to dissing the new-gen Naruto games, but the new-gen combat feels so slow, the animation and it is not easy to play).
I don't mind not seeing Itachi Kisame ultimate jutsu pair in ultimate ninja storm, cause we already had the pair way in this game instead way before the storm game
Imagine if they continued this version of ultimate ninja all the way to the end of Naruto all of the character solo and team ultimates would’ve been awesome and some many more new awakenings
Naruto Ultimate Ninja Series from PS2 Era will always have a special place in my heart and soul, these are the most unique Naruto games for me, only Storm 1 was coming close to these Masterpiece Naruto games, especially from gameplay perspective, I don't know why, but for me, Naruto Ultimate Ninja Series from PS2 Era, are so nostalgic, unique and divine at the same time, I have so many memories during my childhood by playing these Unique Naruto games, Naruto games from PS2 Era was always very close to the anime itself because of the unique vibe and charm☯️
They had to create mutch ultimate jutsu for weak characters like Ino, Shikamaru and Tenten, and characters who never had mutch screentime as Hinata, Kiba, Shino...
Thank You, for matching 90% of the specials to the anime series, UN5 could have done so much more with the Minato (The Yellow Flash) specials throughout the series they kept recycling the same cutscene.....
