this game is good however.. their missing some features that would make the gamem even awsomer. Maybe they could make the graphics a little better. And maybe they would need more characters and the most important thing of all wi-fi mode. It's a really good game you should bye it. Just needs all the characters from gekito ninja taisen 4 and the wi-fi mode. Also more stages to choose from And a harder single player would make it a extremely better must bye game. That is what i expect from shinobi retsuden 2 (if they make one cause right now all it is is a rumor)

Good game a bit rushed though I got this game for christmas and completed story mode within 45mins. The combos aren't as flexible as Gekitou Ninja Taisen (you can't combo into specials) and the sound quality is kinda bad BUT..The game has a fair amount of characters, the side shifting system is better than GNT (IMO) and the fact that you can teleport behind opponets for little chakra at any point (not kawarimi teleports) makes for some good battles. Kawarimi is also added in this game but uses more chakra than a regular teleport. If more time was spent on this game I'm sure it would have been so much better.
Overall I give it 3 stars but this is partially because I'm a fan of Naruto. Non-fans won't really enjoy this game and would be better with Bleach DS or Jump Ultimate Stars.
