If it doesn't show for ya:


Release Date: December 2nd, 2010.

Not sure if the exact name is Gekitou Ninja Taisen EX4, but we'll call it that, k?
EDIT: It's called Gekitou Ninja Taisen SP.

It's nice on Takara Tomy's behalf on making a new installment. Personally, I am going to be playing Storm 2...but for the ones that doesn't own a PS3 or Xbox 360, or aren't simply fans of Storm..then this is nice. I might import it when it comes out, but I am skeptical about it. I wanna know if they improved from EX3, which was released two years ago and it was lame, CONR3 was waaaaay better.

Your thoughts?

New Scan:


It looks like Ino finally made it in...Oh, and it has Wi-Fi..NICE!

Looks nice!
They should make that for Bleach too, I'm not much of a Naruto fan.

[Hanamaru Kunikida]

I hate Naruto, I just read it/watch it because I like to finish what I started. But the Clash of Ninja/Gekitou Ninja Taisen series is really awesome.

Cool, I'm excited. The Naruto games aren't too bad.

And a comment by him:

 

At last, the roster for Gekitou Ninja Taisen! SPECIAL has been revealed. Now I know what you guys are thinking... "WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?! NO PAIN?! NO TEAM TAKA?! RAGE!!1!!!!111!!". In all honesty, I think this game has added enough characters for this installment. TakaraTOMY has created Sage Naruto, Minato, Killer Bee, Raikage, and Ino. And also, threw in Chiyo, Anko and ANBU Kakashi from Clash Of Ninja Revolution 3. I mean think about it, TakaraTOMY adds some characters plus new mechanics to make the game more interesting and fun. TOMY in America fixes their bugs, adds a few mechanics, and a few characters to release as their installment, which will probably be Clash Of Ninja Revolution 4. Who knows?

Anyway, back to the video. I am very please with Sage Naruto, because he just isn't a simple clone of regular Naruto. I love his BBBBBB. Most of Sage Naruto's combos seem to involve rasengan, which costs chakra. Looks like good balance to me. Minato looks a lot fun too. He teleports a lot and it costs no chakra. Hopefully it's not abused... Sasuke has yet, ANOTHER special: Amaterasu. It kind of bores me, because it's pretty much the same as Kakashi's, but it does have some black flames after effects, which is cool.

6 Mins PV Trailer:

 

It's about time for another video! This time it's six minutes long! This has brought my hype up even more! I'm definitely getting this game. Alright, lets look at some of the characters and see what's new.

-Itachi's Susano has a wide range for attacking, but the downfall is that his health and chakra decreases.
-Jiraiya has a new special involving his Sage Mode, but he could possibly revamped with Sage Mode as a transformation!
-At the end of Minato's combo, he slams his opponent into the wall... Could this be a new stun?
-Killer Bee's combos look bad *** and it seems that he has another special that dashes at your opponent.
-There's also some new type of mode where you walk on a board to do missions and earn titles to use on Wi-Fi. Hopefully Wi-Fi won't be disappointing...

More Info of Wi-Fi.

 

The official website updated! The Mode section just opened and have shown some of the new modes.

GNT Road


Not much is said about friend battles on Wi-Fi, but there will be voice chats with your friends online (Not ranked). Now you can rage and scream at your friends through a mic! Yay! I'm sure that there will be single and two man cell battles for Wi-Fi, so don't get your hopes up. Once again, lets pray for Wi-Fi to be better this time...

This game will demolish UNS2 in every single way, every single way!

That character select screen totally looks like Brawl's...or any Smash bros for that matter xD. But I'll probably pass these ones up. I like the series, but I've had enough of fighters for now. D;
