Based on VIZ Media’s hit anime series SHONEN JUMP Naruto and first released
in September 2006, Naruto: Clash of Ninja 2 is now available at a new low price
of $19.95 MSRP. According to the NPD Group, Naruto: Clash of Ninja 2 has been in
the top 5 best-selling Nintendo GameCube games by month five out of six months
since its release.
“The Naruto brand has been a hit in North America since the TV series first
debuted in September of 2005 and with the momentum increasing, our expectation
is that 2007 will be a banner year for Naruto on Nintendo platforms,” said Laura
Yoshioka, senior marketing manager, TOMY Corporation. “Not only will Naruto:
Ninja Council 3 be the first Naruto game for the Nintendo DS, but in the fall
of 2007 TOMY and D3PA will be releasing the first ever Naruto game for
Nintendo’s Wii video game system – Naruto: Clash of Ninja MVZ.”
We have been very pleased with the continued success of Naruto on the
Nintendo GameCube,” said Kim Motika, vice president of worldwide sales and
operations, D3PA. “With the new pricing at $19.95, Naruto: Clash of Ninja 2 for
Nintendo GameCube will find an even larger audience.”
