@ArcadeStriker3 ай бұрын
Probably due to how the GameCube was already on the way out in place of the Wii internationally, as the first two games were localized later compared to the original games. Even the second game actually released as "Naruto Clash of Ninja European Version", skipping the first game The delay itself is due to the anime being localized and aired later than the original anime and games, so the Revolution games were the compromise in replacing those last two games by the time the international anime story would allow loosely adapting those with rev1 (almost straight) and tev2 (custom story but most character picks are fit with it except for the missing Sound Four).

Ultimate Ninja actually varies a LOT between each game. There's a lot of features that were added and taken out between Ultimate Ninja 2 and 5. Like UN2 giving you the option to customize your ninjutsu, an option that carried over to 3 but was removed in 4, UN3 taking away multiple supers so you can only pick one each fight, Ultimate Ninja 4's story mode being a game in and of itself, UN5 forcing the tag mechanic on you. Also GNT 4 wasn't the last Clash of Ninja game. GNT/Clash of Ninja Special is the last game.

So a couple of things. (And I apologize for the wall of text in advance) The Ultimate Ninja series used to have a pretty active competitive scene back in the day starting with the release of the Japanese version of Ultimate Ninja 2. That was the game that introduced cancels, and let me tell you: that was a literal game changer. Basically, at certain points in your attack string you could throw a shuriken or do a backdash and it would cancel the animation and reset you to a neutral state, which meant that if your opponent did a substitution, they would now not be able to hit you for free anymore. The bounces you mentioned (which were introduced in UN3) also play into this. They could be used to extend combos or to set up jutsu traps. Unlike in CoN, you didn't regenerate chakra whenever you hit somebody, so chakra management was very important. Using a subsitution took away a much smaller chunk of your chakra compared to CoN, but if you didn't keep your chakra in mind, you'd eventually run out, and at that point you'd be helpless, since a couple of characters could reliably do infinite combos. In fact, some characters, such as Neji relied on this interplay - they were chakra drainers (kinda like in the manga/anime) who wanted you to waste all your chakra with substitutions and then finish you off. This leads into another point that you mentioned near the end, regarding character variety: even before discovering the more in-depth side of things in UN, I found the characters to present more variety and be closer to their anime-representations. For example, Gaara moved slowly and only attacked with sand in UN, whereas in CoN he was basically the same as all other characters, punches and all. Essentially, CoN characters to me felt a lot more samey than the UN characters did. The problem, I think, is that the Ultimate Ninja series hides a lot of its complexity, but the complexity is definitely there. Some of the members of the UN community used to post general gameplay tutorials and character specific strategy videos pretty regularly, as well as tournament footage. I haven't really followed the competitive scene for either series in the last decade now, but if it seems that the scene for the Gamecube games is still alive while that for the PS2 games is dead, then maybe that's partly due to the fact that the UN series transitioned to Ultimate Ninja Storm and the community with it, while the CoN series has been abandoned by the developers after the last game on the Wii, leaving only a few, but very dedicated fans left. (By the way, CoN4 has also introduced cancels. If you're hitting your opponent, you can hit Y and for a fourth of a whole chakra bar, you'll reset to idle, which means you can restart your attack string for more combo opportunities or to prepare for a side step if you're anticipating a substituion counter. Just thought I should point that out)

No need to apologize for the wall of text. It's cool to see what i missed about these games i cover. It's a bit of a shame that the info on the UN competitive scene is hard to find now a days.

One thing to keep in mind is clash still has tourney meetings for that game at fighting tournaments. It also came out on the gamecube and wii. Which severely undersold the playstation by 3x the amount and the xbox by almost 2x. So its not really able to be stastically compared in popularity to ultimate. I honestly think if they came out on same consoles, clash woulda won

@DrJojoGaming absolutely, only reason I think the way I do is because the wii and gamecube were also more limited in capabilities than both the xbox and playstation. They both had low entry to play. But if they were on an even playing field, with clash having more of a growth ceiling it would have lasted longer. Not only that but each character really feels like your playing the one from the show. It was so unique and they have never made anything like it. But both games certainly had their appeal

However, I booted up Clash of Ninja 2 on my old silver gamecube with my 100% save file. (Keep in mind, most of my friends are hardcore Playstation fans) None of them even knew how to play and there was way more hype and genuine excitement in the room , with screaming raving and wild reactions all across the room with nearly every match. They all admitted after about 2 hours in: "Yeah, This game is way better!" And/Or "Now we know what you've been talking about." But in all fairness, I'm a classic.

Those were the days when game companies tried to keep up with the manga with that current popular character in their gameplay first. Shippuden's games were out of control that in America, Revolution 3 has the Taisen EX1 story but has Taisen EX3 roster along with their exclusive American Rev 2 cast just to fill in and have a complete roster. And Taisen Special added Toad Sage Naruto, Minato, Pain, Raikage and Bee. Completely skipping Toby and Konan. That is insane to me how popular the Shippuden middle arc was.

It could be that different companies had rights to the same IP but only on a specific console. That would be my best guess.

i always enjoyed the clash series more, the ultimate ninja didn't feel as good sinse had much about waching animation of special doing the right sequence of buttons while Clash were more dinamic and fun, the 4 player combat was crazy since it felt more like an arena where your hits could hit anyone...

Both game series are great in their own ways, me personally tho, I have more found memories of ultimate ninja. I'm not so much of a competitive gamer, so having a combat system as in-depth and comparable to takken isn't something so important to me, the combo sytem in ultimate ninja is good enough for me. Ultimate Ninja definitely feels more like a casual game for the fans vs more of an arcade fighter...I mean CON has a story but just thru static imagaes with voice acting than it goes to the fighting. Ultimate ninja 1 was the same way but they changed it later on. Ultimate Ninja 2 still had the text box but it was animated more, not the level of a cutscene but very damn close and ultimate ninja 3's sandbox mode was literally based on an OVA on top of having the typical story mode going thru the arcs than with ultimate ninja 4, the story is written and told in an immersive way that we haven't had yet. I feel like ultimate ninja was more of a fan game overall and had a different sense for it and therefore a different level of love was made into the game. Im not saying no love went into CON but i feel like ultimate ninja is more of the fan game closer to the story Naruto. Now I will also like to note that both games had such in impact on the naruto community that when they created the storm series...it was basically ultimate ninja and CON combined together. The battles are 3D like CON, theres more combos such as up combo's and down combo's, it took them till storm 4 to be able to switch between characters but you can, team ultimates which were in CON if i rember correctly as well as it being competitive so both games series are honestly great and served there purposes.

I like Clash of Ninja a bit better. But Ultimate Ninja actually had all the games localized, so I usually play that one for now I didn't know CoN4 had an English patch. I'm on my way

Kumite is NOT new to clash of ninja 4. It was first introduced in the second game. Sorry, I just played the crap out of tjat one so I had to correct him 😅
@DrJojoGaming3 ай бұрын
I remember playing it on clash of Ninja 2 when I was younger. I meant new as in not in the first game since i only played those two games. Will try to re-word things better in the future.

I think that Naruto ultimate ninja was made to be a graphic spectacle. Whereas Naruto clash of ninja was made to be a genuine fighter. They can't be compared
@jonnycarter463 ай бұрын
Con graphics werent bad at all tho in fact they looked alot better than the UN series neji hair for example horrible in UN but CON its accurate
@olalawal61923 ай бұрын
@jonnycarter46 I think in the ultimate ninja games, were way better with anime accurate jutsu and visuals. They also gave us a lot of fan service moments. The graphics weren't bad on CON they just weren't as focused on cinematics as proven in their story mode. They leaned more towards game play rather than visuals. That's why they are two different types of games and shouldn't be compared.

You forgot Clash of Ninja 4, which was called Clash of Ninja Revolution in America. It was released on the Wii.
@tupadre19963 ай бұрын
You're wrong. Revolution 1 is an enhanced Wii port of Gekito Ninja Taisen 3 from the GC. GNT4 was never released outside of Japan, so we never got the Sasuke Recovery Arc and 3v3 mode. Revolution 2 is an original American entry, not adapting any Japanase game, and Revolution 3 is basically an adaptation of GNT EX's story mode (Kazekage Rescue Arc) with playable characters from EX2 and EX3. The last game of that franchise was Gekito Ninja Taisen Special for the Wii and it has an original conquest-style story mode and includes Minato and K-Bee.

I played both the ultimate ninja series plus narultimate accel games as well and the clash of ninja series. Both games are great! I prefer the clash of ninja series i like that arena feel. I think people like ultimate ninja better because they hate Nintendo or just not fans of it. I know lots of people who wouldn't touch clash of ninja because it was on GameCube unfortunately
