Naruto: Konoha Senki

A 2003 Bandai action game for the Game Boy Advance based on the Naruto anime, Naruto: Konoha Senki spans the story from the early Land of Waves arc through the Chunin Exams. Players choose from Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, or Kakashi and battle through side-scrolling stages set in forests, villages, and enemy encampments. Combat weaves together shuriken throws, taijutsu combos, and chakra-powered ninjutsu; mid-stage partner swaps trigger dialogue faithful to the source material, while boss fights recreate signature showdowns against Zabuza, Haku, and the Sound Ninja Three. Featuring chibi-style sprites and a snappy tempo, it stands as one of the very first Naruto titles to make the leap to the GBA.
