This game was Narutos first RPG, all Tomy was doing was experimenting, and this game still is awesome! Its pretty short, so, battles are really fun, lots of items, could have been more characters, lots of weapons and enemies, but no multi player. This game could have been perfect if it werent for the game boy COLOR graphics. Emphasis on COLOR. Horiible out of battle graphics, but in battle graphics are pretty good. And theres also lots of jutsu, so keep an eye out for this really fun game! The characters you can play as are Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, Lee, Neji, and Shikimaru, and hers a spoiler: JIRAIYA!!!!!!!!!!!! Im not telling you how to get him though, youll just have to do that yourself! To wrap things all up, its fun and should take you a good 20 hours to beat it. This game covers up the first 80 episodes (up to the leaf village destruction) but it skips so much of the story, you might get a little confused during some parts if your new to the naruto world.
