When it comes to backwards compatibility, modern Xboxes do it better than any other modern console right now. However, there is one franchise in particular whose exclusion from backwards compatibility on the One and Series consoles feels downright criminal, and that's Naruto. In this video, I'm going to discuss my experience playing Naruto: Rise of a Ninja for the first time, and explain how trying to procure and play this game led me down an unexpected video game preservation rabbit hole.

Well made video and this is why emulation is the answer to preserving the older games. I loved my 360 but I won't pretend that the system was reliable. Very good video and worth the watch

Thank you so much, you nailed it on the head. This was exactly what I was trying to get across -- Rise of a Ninja and The Broken Bond are REALLY cool, special games that are different from all the other Naruto games. It's just by chance that I even found out about them -- imagine all the other people who are never going to get to play these. It's just sad, but that's why I'm glad we have the Xenia team!

boy didn't have to dismantle Naruto's psyche like that 😭😤

They put sooo much into these early games. Its been a while since I played but the last few Ninja Storm games I played were pretty much the same. They stopped caring about the world of naruto and just focused on the big anime fights

@humblemudgames Месяц назад

It really feels that way to me. The fighting is awesome in those games, but I really love the exploration this one offers. Thanks for watching!

wel now I want to see you do a deep dive on music licensing in stuff like the classic EA games...

@humblemudgames Месяц назад

I actually have a video topic idea that would definitely include this. It's a huge topic though, so it'll take me a bit to make. But I'll do it! 🤝

Sad to see games become relics, well done on the video bro!

@humblemudgames Месяц назад

There are a ton of gems a lot of people will never know about! Hopefully more people will find this game.

@TwoEyesOpen Месяц назад

This game looks so sick 😍 It's a shame we can't get a re-release.

@humblemudgames Месяц назад

An HD remaster of this with Broken Bond would be sooooo awesome.

@adrenaliner91 23 дня назад

That will never happen, Ubisoft will never ever do something good again for us players xD

@humblemudgames 23 дня назад

@@adrenaliner91 Unfortunately you're probably right.

@adrenaliner91 23 дня назад

Just buy an Xbox 360 Slim or E model. The RROD was eliminated on these models afaik and both run great here to this day. Besides the really bad wifi chip in the E model by design, they cheaped out and that thing is slow af. But otherwise works. Unfortunately it doesn't still run the first NXE.. which was the best dashboard imo with the 3D and everything and not flat crap that it is now.

@humblemudgames 23 дня назад

That dashboard was absolutely iconic. Thank you for this advice! Sounds like the Slim is the way to go.
