Game: Naruto Shippuuden: Narutimate Accel

[UChessmaster]

Naruto Shippuuden: Narutimate Accel will be a sequel to the 2005 game Naruto: Narutimate Hero 3 this game in particular will feature post-time characters (hence why this thread is in the open discussion part of the forum) with the same basic engine as the last game but with some upgrades obviously, if the game has pre-time characters is not yet confirmed, but there IS a picture with pre-time Naruto somewhere.

Trailer

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RvRzhSf8398

[ChaosK]

Judging by the trailer, it would lead me to believe that the actual "Naruto Shippuuden" will be following manga storyline. :D

Also, the best part of the trailer was watching Deidara own Sakura.

[bagandscalpel]

Ah, let's see... Gamefaqs has this slated for release in Japan in the beginning of April.

Hmm, guess by that time, they'll have included every existing ex-Genin and all others along with the new Akatsuki to make up for the late Sound Five. Wonder if the previous hokage will make it in, as well?

[RyougaZell]

All 'Genin' will be shown on ep 221. It will be a special about how they look now.

[Koyuki]

I saw the game a couple of weeks ago. I think it will be better then narutimate hero 3.

Unconfirmed/Missing Pre-Timeskip Characters:

Kakashi
ANBU Kakashi
Aoi Mouju Uzumaki Naruto
Itachi
Kisame
Gai

[RyougaZell]

Hmm... I think its safe to assume those pre-time skip characters aren't included because their characters will basically be the same. I mean same 'look', they'll just add new jutsu/ougi like previous games.
Anbu Kakashi though must be around somewhere. Green Naruto bleh...

Oh yeah... you called Tenten -> Temari under the scans.

[Koyuki]

No New Sasuke or Sai... I hope they add them, and maybe some other Akatsuki members.

[UChessmaster]

you called Tenten -> Temari under the scans.

Fixed

and... i need BIG (Boy in green) he was like... THE strongest char = (

[darkshadow]

Nope, normal naruto, gaara, sarutobi and jiraiya were the strongest ( this is a fact, they are in the highest tier.)
Also, itachi and kisame are in, just look at the damn scan lol.

[UChessmaster]

No, BIG was the best character

Dinamic entry had invisible frame (you dont see him doing it, just when it hits you), piercing damage, he had the highest def after lee, his chakra explosion ougi was anoying his nin was chakra recovery item 80% ( 80% chance to get a chakra recovery item so you can spam dinamic entry) and highest chakra recovery (press down)

and the missing chars refers to PRE-timeskip

[darkshadow]

i know it has an invisible frame, ive used all the chars, and know how to exploit them all, but if you try spamming it on me, you wont stand a chance, its just like yondaime, against new players he is like god, the can't do shit.
Same with that dynamic entry, ill punish you so hard if you try to spam it.

Also what use is it to list pre-time skip itachi and kisame and kakashi, their fighting style hasn't changed, they didn't "grow up" or anything, they just gained some moves, no need to include the pre-timeskip version, it would be an exact clone, with 2 less jutsu/ougi... pointless.
Also listing pre-time skip zabuza and such, there is no need to put pre-time skip in there, they don't even have a post-timeskip version... cause they're dead >_>.

I disagree, and so does shi-shi rendan

I never said they should be in... im just pointing out missing pre-timeskip chars...

i consider them pre-time skip since they existed... you know... BEFORE the timeskip

[darkshadow]

You disagree with me laying the smackdownon spammers? i've played this game since it was out with friends, and some of them do like to spam that move, but i beat them each and everytime, shishi rendan does catch me offguard sometimes, but that is cause i don't expect people to use it. Most of them use chidori instead.

And once i get you in a combo its over, ill just button lock and smash you to bits.
And pointing out missing chars? how the heck are itachi, kisame and itachi missing chars? that would be saying most of the chars in soul calibur 3 are missing chars, just cause they play a bit different here and there, that's just retarded.
A missing char would be one with a completely different moveset and visual appearance, but that is not the case here.

And yes zabuza and such existed in pre-time skip, but they DID NOT in post time skip, why even mention the pre-time skip? it's not like there are 2 different versions, there is only 1 zabuza and 1 haku ( and the rest that died pre-timeskip ), mentioning that it's a "pre-timeskip" version could just be confusing, especially for non manga readers ( yes they do actually play these games).

You`re kidding right?

Fine... let`s forget about them then... and there is only one itachi in the series = D

same as above...

[darkshadow]

Ic well i never go to shishi rendan, so you had me confused there :P, but yeah im not saying green naruto is not good, he is very good, but gaara and such are just better, especially jiraiya is a major pain

[UChessmaster]

i understand, however the fact that BIG got banned from tournaments must count for something = D

jiraiya indeed is awsome and gaara... i`ve never seen a good gaara, mainly because one hit from him = 5 chances for knj...

[darkshadow]

Yeah, it took me awhile to become a good gaara player, im more the offensive gaara player, which works quite well, other players mostly play defensive, which is harder.
Also his up up+o suna shigure is a great knj counter, since it follows the opponent.

[Psyke]

Wow I'm quite surprised they all the Hokages in, including "The Yellow Flash". Can't wait to see what moves he has. I think it would be safe to see an all new version of the rasengan.

[Idealistic]

Since this is open discussion.... Kakashi said the 4th never created a new version of Rasengan... Nobody has... Naruto is the first to mix it with an element.

Anyways... Yes this game looks awesome!

[darkshadow]

lol that is not what Psyke meant i think, these game all have extra special attacks, that haven't even been in the manga ;).

[RyougaZell]

Like Jiraiya's Flame Rasengan... lol.

I haven't seen everything at Narutimate Hero 3... yet I'll order this through ebay when it comes out (and maybe Bleach Blade Battlers... is it good?)

[bagandscalpel]

Still, I was hoping that, by the time this game came out, there would no longer be a need to put in the pre-timeskip designs for the former genins. Of course, pre-timeskip deceased characters are a must!

Bottom line is that they should've waited a bit longer before this game, in my opinion.

[darkshadow]

Why not? do you actually believe that the post-timeskip versions would play the same? That would be as lame as a pallet swap, i for one am glad that the pre-timeskip versions are in, now i don't have to worry about gaara sucking or not.

[UChessmaster]

chiyo is confirmed!!!!!

Also, added some (not really) new "promo" pics, Itachi and Kisame

WTF is that thing in the top left corner?

[darkshadow]

thats is a character, part of the story of NHA.
also, i expected sasuke to be the last character revealed, cause if you look at the cc2 accel char page, you can see a extra char slot beneath kisame, next to kankuro, it seems it was for chiyo then.

[JaySee]

What's NHA?

[UChessmaster]

Narutimate hero accel for short

[Koyuki]

Downloading a torrent now. It's 1.99 GB. Dunno if it's real. Anyone heard any news about the game?

[Souryusen]

Most of the cast from NH3 is back and a vast majority of the characters are already unlocked from the start. 6 confirmed unlocks at this point: Itachi, Kisame, Yondaime, Deidara, Sasori and Chiyo.

Crooked Jester's forums are the best source for Narutimate info. (http://www.crookedjester.com/forumdisplay.php?f=17)

[darkshadow]

i got it on tuesday, its nice, but the ts chars feel so much more powerfull then the ps chars.

[Souryusen]

Yeah, a lot of the newer characters are pretty wicked. I am a little miffed that they removed the sharingan mode that had been present since NH1. Now Sasuke/Kakashi users are stuck with CS1 (meh)/Nin-Dog mode (quite good, actually).

The game is definitely more balanced than its predecessors, but at the expense of some of the flare and variety that NH3 had.

[toonice714]

WOw sakura is useful in the manga and in the game!!! who would've thought we would see the day. Btw the Part 2 characters are far better than the previous. Especially kankurou!

[darkshadow]

yeah a lot of balancing has been done, which is nice, jiraiya doesnt have those ultra pwnage combo's anymore, shizune is different too, kimimaro aswell, but kazekage is so freaking powerfull lol, free suna shigure and such.

[Koyuki]

The 1.99 GB release is real.

Yeah the game rocks. Tenten and Shikamaru are really good. I also like Naruto Shippuuden.
Too bad Sasuke and Kakashi lost their Sharingan. Have you unlocked the secret chars?

[darkshadow]

yeah, ive got everything.
btw tenten's awakening ougi is freaking awesome.
and yeah, ts naruto is pretty much god tier in this game, his stamina, attack pwr, speed and chakra usage are off the hook.

[Souryusen]

Neji is pretty hardcore now too. They toned down the power on the Byakugan but they made it a LOT easier to gain access to. All you need to do is land a 20-hit combo and Byakugan activates. Hell... his circle spam move will deliver that much.

[RyougaZell]

For those that already have the game...
What game modes those it have?
I want this game, but im kinda dissapointed that only a few pre-time skip characters have new moves and the others are direct clones from NH3 (maybe I see this because I didn't play NH1 nor NH2)

[Terracosmo]

So...


HOW ABOUT POSTING THE TORRENT...? :mad:

*heads to google in despair*

[darkshadow]

i went back to some tenkaichi 2 today, and i like it a lot more then i thought >_>.
nha is great and all, but... it lacks that.... epic feeling, also battles are over way too quickly compared to bt2, meh.

Oh and terra, i deleted to torrent, but i found it somewhere on mangahelpers, i bet its on isohunt now too.

[Koyuki]

http://www.mininova.org/get/647364

Here's the torrent. I thinks it's the fastest one. Got almost 400 seeds

[Terracosmo]

Thanx. :D

Got it down, need to play it when I uhh... accumulate enough energy to move from my chair. :D

[Souryusen]

Thanx. :D

You'll probably enjoy it, since you didn't like the 1 Ougi format in NH3.
