October 17, 2005 - Fans of Shonen Jump's popular manga series Naruto have a lot to be excited about nowadays. Along with recent news from Bandai that Naruto: Narultimate Hero will arrive Stateside on PS2, D3Publisher today announced a publishing agreement with TOMY to bring more Naruto games to the States, this time for GameCube and Game Boy Advance.
The agreement covers four titles: NARUTO: Clash of Ninja (Gekito Ninja Taisen) and NARUTO: Clash of Ninja 2 (Gekito Ninja Taisen 2) for the GameCube; and NARUTO: Ninja Council (Saikyuo Ninja Daikesshu) and an additional title for Game Boy Advance. The titles are planned for 2006.
"The co-publishing agreement with TOMY represents an excellent opportunity for D3PA to leverage a superb property in Shonen Jump's Naruto," commented Yoji Takenaka, executive vice president and COO for D3PA. "The success of Naruto in Japan has eclipsed the Dragon Ball Z franchise, so we are looking forward to these releases in North America and the prospect of working with [U.S. Naruto publisher] VIZ Media and TOMY."
Naruto takes place in a world where ninja hold the ultimate power. Infused with the spirit of a once fearsome Nine-Tailed Fox, Naruto Uzumaki is a ninja-in-training who is learning the art of Ninjutsu with his classmates Sakura and Sasuke. The trio studies under the instruction of their teacher, Kakashi, who helps the group face dangerous and daunting tests and challenges.
