Their move set may be different visually, but no complex combos to memorize means that every fighter will have the same or similar move inputs with which to pelt their opponents. Because of this one-button attack approach, all the characters essentially play the same. There is only one attack button (aside from the long-range shiruken button), and attacks are varied with addition of direction, jump and Chakra, the energy used for special attacks. When it gets down to the gameplay, this is minimalist as well. It’s an interesting, albeit minimalist approach to convey a huge amount of story in a short amount of time, allowing players to get right into the action with as little exposition as possible. The stories themselves are told through minimal cut scenes and single-panel art with voiceover. Instead, players simply choose from three characters (two versions of Naruto - older and younger - plus Sasuke Uchiha, with more characters unlocked through gameplay) and fight through their storylines. What most folk will notice with this title is that, in story mode, it completely abandons the trope of exploring a hub world, RPG-style, looking for fights along the familiar locales of the series it’s based on.

This is both a good thing and a bad thing. While many games will focus on a series’ storied history (or just its story) Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations aims to streamline everything so the focus is on the gameplay itself. What seems to set this series apart from the others, however, is its focus on a pick-up-and-play attitude. The Naruto series of games is another in a long line of fighting titles based on a popular anime series.
