“NARUTO: Ninja Destiny is easy to pick up and play, yet challenging to master for the core fighter, setting the bar even higher for the possibilities of 3D fighting games on the Nintendo DS,” said Mark Shinohara, executive vice president, TOMY Corporation. “With the unique gameplay features made possible by the touch screen and two-player wireless combat, fans can unleash their inner ninja like never before.”

“It’s been very gratifying to see the NARUTO brand grow and evolve with each new iteration,” said Alison Quirion, vice president of marketing, D3PA. “As fans of the series ourselves, we are always looking to bring NARUTO to broader audiences and introduce new ways to bring these amazing characters to life.”
