Naruto Generations: CC2 Lists 6 Enhancements Over Storm 2:
In a new blog post, the development team lead Yuki Nishikawa and CyberConnect2 (CC2) president Hiroshi Matsuyama go over some of the technical enhancements in Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations. This may not be the full list, but this is what CC2 is revealing as the enhancements made in the game over Storm 2 thus far.
Enhancement #1: Respawning location of substitution jutsu has became farther than previous Storm games
With this adjustment, you (as an attacker) will have some time to deal with the opponent’s return attack. This is a modest change and the time is really short, but high-level players could gain more options after the substitution is performed.
Enhancement #2: Vulnerable moment after releasing Chakra Shuriken
CC2 received a lot of negative feedbacks for chakra shuriken spamming”, so we made some tweaks here. CC2′s focus in is not to make shuriken useless, so you can still experience the shuriken battle feeling. In Generations, you will not be able to keep shooting Chakra Shuriken as fast as Storm 2.
Enhancement #3: The wait time to activate Ultimate Team Jutsus now takes longer and can be cancelled out with attacks easily.
In Storm 2, sometimes Team Ultimates seemed invincible, especially when used as a counter attack to the opponent’s attack. With this enhancement, you can now cancel the opponent’s Team Ultimate by attacking them quick enough.
Enhancement #4: You can now cancel ongoing combos and jump
In other words, you can cancel your ground combo and switch to an aerial combo. Also, you can jump and avoid the opponent’s counterattack when your combo is guarded.
Enhancement#5: Players can now cancel ongoing combos and immediately start a ninja move!
If your opponent performs a substitution and uses a jutsu to counterattack your combo, now you can perform a ninja move (and possibly get the opponent’s back!) With this, you can take advantage of the opponent.
Enhancement #6: You can now press the substitution jutsu button slightly prior/after hit!
Example: If the L2 button is pressed before or the moment your opponent’s attack hits, you will perform a substitution jutsu and dodge the attack, without taking any damage, at the cost of depleting a part of the substitution bar
Example 2: If the L2 button is pressed after your opponent’s attack hits, you will perform a substitution jutsu and dodge the attack, but with the damage AND at the at the cost of depleting a part of the substitution bar.
With this, you can perform substitution jutsus in unexpected timing, so that the players can enjoy more strategic gameplay!
Naruto Generations: High Resolution Japanese Box Art Released:
We’re sure many of you have seen the Japanese box art for Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations already, but now Saiyan Island would like to present to you the high resolution version! You can view it in it’s full glory by clicking on the PS3 of 360 version of the box art. If you look at the comparison below, the Japanese box art looks extremely similar to the European version that Namco Bandai Europe released on Monday. The only differences are the logo, age ratings, and some minor textual differences. Also, if you ask us, the image of Naruto and Sasuke in the Japanese box art is shifted a little to the left. What do you think?

I'm still crossing my fingers that the sound four will be in this game. I need Tayuya, she was my favorite. I always love the spiteful, rude, and foul-mouthed girls in anime xDMei's lava jutsu, it looked like, was amazing.
I'll be using Kimimaro a lot, seeing how he's 100% in. Hopefully, the other Sound 4 join him. Tayuya, Jugo, Suigetsu, Karin, Sakon (Maybe), and Kimimaro will be those who I use most. Neji and Tenten, part 1, too.
I'll be using Kisame alot aswell. I love his Shark mode in Shippuden Impact which should be his awakening like it is in that game.
Kisame's shark mode will more than likely be in as either an awakening or as a boss against Bee.I'm still crossing my fingers that the sound four will be in this game. I need Tayuya, she was my favorite. I always love the spiteful, rude, and foul-mouthed girls in anime xD
Hopefully they'll release news about the Sound Four and about Kisame's shark mode.
Kisame's shark mode will more than likely be in as either an awakening or as a boss against Bee.
The Sound 4's chance seem less and less each day (as playable), but I too hope they are. Kurenai and Anko pretty much confirm the 4, but them being playable is in the air. Even them being in the game itself is, sadly.
Naruto Generations: Minor Update on Card System:
Monday’s press release by Namco Bandai Games Europe, mentioned Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations will have a new system that allows players to use codes from the Naruto Collectable Card game to unlock bonus skills and gain advantages in fights. Specifically, the press release said the following:
In a new first for the NARUTO Storm series, NARUTO SHIPPUDEN: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations will feature an innovative system that integrates real-world collectible cards with the in-game universe. Coming soon to Europe, the next generation of NARUTO collector cards will each carry a code allowing players to unlock corresponding artwork for their in-game profile and engage in a special mini-battle to unlock a bonus skill and gain an advantage in the main fight.
Many fans became concerned that some players may gain an unfair advantage since they don’t collect Naruto cards. Well, CyberConnect2 has clarified this slightly by saying “the game balance will not change dramatically, the main focus is the collection element and not making Super Naruto or anything.”
We wouldn’t be too worried about it since the quality of the gameplay would be effected if external elements were brought in to modify it. However, if you are still concerned, more information on the card system is expected to be released by Namco Bandai Games in the future so we hope to have it for you here on Saiyan Island once it’s available!

Kimimaro being in is a good plus, as is that Gaara looks like he does in the same arc. But who knows. Until we get something, than it's still a mystery.i think sound four are playable but i could be wrong and i say this because of this

Naruto Generations: 21 Kage Power Screenshots:
Namco Bandai Games Japan has today released 21 new screenshots of Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Generations! They feature the Raikage, Tsuchikage, and Mizukage along with their supports abusing Naruto’s greatest rival, Sasuke! Individually these images are small so we have combined them into larger images of Kage power action! In order from left to right are the Rock Ninja Akatsuchi/Kurotsuchi, Cloud Ninja Cee/Darui, Mist Ninja Chojuro/Ao, the Mizukage Mei, Raikage Ay, and Tsuchikage Onoki!
One thing to note is the Kage guards only have one screenshot each. Namco Bandai has labeled these support. Developer CyberConnect2 has mentioned there will be some support-only characters, and the Kage guards along with Anko and Kurenai look to be in that category. Of course things can change as the game is still in development, but as of right now those 8 characters are support only.
