    Nope, there is NOTHING intriguing to do in this swag-filled DS game.

    If you've hated Naruto: Ninja Destiny, then this will get you into a rage. Naruto Shippuden: Ninja Destiny 2 is a prime example of what a terrible sequel is. First, the graphics are exactly the same. If you put the two games side by side, I honestly wouldn't tell the difference in em'. The fighting mechanics are back with no improvement! YAY!

If you put the two games side by side, I honestly wouldn't tell the difference in em'. The fighting mechanics are back with no improvement! YAY! However they actually had the time to make more (i mean like 4-5 new..) characters to fit the Shippuden Arc. I was well surprised that the developers did this than to copy and paste all the assets from the last game and stretch out their necks and legs to make them appear larger. They added survival mode and quest mode.....(honestly don't make more modes if the foundation of the game which is fighting is jack **** And.... yeah this one by the looks of it took more brainpower than the last one which I applaud but still IMPROVE ON THE FIGHTING!!!… Expand

    So I'm not sure, personally, how anyone could enjoy this game. Unpolished, gross graphics and something that reminded me more of a poor-man's streetfighter. I'm so disappointed.

    Adding a mild exploration element between tweaked bouts makes it a definite improvement over the original, but there's still not enough to either aspect making it fall between two stools.

    Naruto: Ninja Destiny II is just like its predecessor: A poor fighting game. Again, the combat system is to simplistic, the available game modes pretty pathetic and on top of that it's a disgrace to the franchise. So, if you ever get your hands on this game, just throw it as far away as possible. Even if you're fond of yellow spiked hair and bright colored pajamas.

    The visuals in Naruto: Ninja Destiny II are pretty okay and the fact that you can unlock Hokages is pretty cool, but this doesn’t save the game. The Battle controls are very bad, which is a sin for a fighting game, the game is not original and in the end not fun to play.

    This tie-in is halfway between a NDS beat’em up and an average GBA title (gameplay-wise); a bit more polish could’ve opened it to a wider public, but as it is, it will attract only Naruto’s die hard fans.
