Naruto Storm 3: Over 72 Playable Characters*

The interview was great it let me know that not all characters can awaken from the beginning and You can have so many different choices in the online and story mode.

the 7 mists swordsmen . the undead kages. madara more more every character that ever lived through naruto timeline

Im guessing 81 play able characters

lol didnt they say generation was going to have OVER 72 characters? and what did we get? exactly 72 characters. lol in storm 3 i bet this time by OVER 72 characters they mean 73 characters

 yeah i hope so.

I thought I’d be first…Nevertheless, my comment:

I like this idea. But I really think they are taking a step in the wrong direction if they plan on letting you customize your own character and that malarchy. I’m so-so fond of this Ultimate Decision factor, I’m not sure how I’ll take it on but I have good expectations of it.

josealmonte27- They said it would have over 70 characters, from the best of my recollection, not over 72. Its their job to stretch the truth either way…

they said over 40 characters for storm 2… we got 42
they said over 70 for generations, we got 72 .
they say over 72 for this, we will get 74

here’s an translation of the interview i belive from their web site (i translated it via google translate)

The “Narutimate can play longer” “3″- This time, the battle system is so changed considerably.Hiroshi Matsuyama (hereinafter, Matsuyama) I changed the system a little bit in the “generation” of the previous work, I was able to reputation is very good, to achieve one million worldwide, thank you. The “3″ Then, more, I’m going to change completely, the battle system. ▲ Naruto (Kyuubi chakra mode)- System “awakening” can experience new TGS, right? Mean one of them.Matsuyama yes. It was a form of it, awake state changes in response to the damage, in the series of works up to now, to be a pinch. Although I think you are looking at the original, and you know, but to the training, “Bijuu chakra mode” of Naruto, but it is not accustomed to this state of one’s own free will, for example. So, I did start to be able to at the same time as the game suddenly waking. – I see. It is also why I changed it, along with the development of the original system.Matsuyama however, does not mean you can be the first awakening from all characters, you can start at the same time as the awakening is the only character that matches some of the image. – As far as the 試遊, I thought as a rather powerful.Matsuyama also, strongly, it is not only to be useful. Ninjutsu is always associated with the risk because, once awake suddenly, “something” than I would decreasing. So, you can be in trouble later on, there is always risk. In the TGS version, so you have to recreate the Battle of the original scene, it does not put out for elements that decrease. – Such as the battle, it is not being able to awake as much as you like.Yeah Matsuyama. Or the system is in use when the stick awakening is that left to the player’s strategy. – I see. Their tactics are so hot.New elements of the battle system Matsuyama, there are many others as well. Exceed the 72 people, “Generation” This will be the record number is definitely playable character. And renewed the battle system, so make adjustments to hijack it, but I also think character ever, touch and feel and change everything. – The new battle system, what has been produced based on the concept of what?It is a “Matsuyama Narutimate to play long.” I think up to now, after clearing the story, and it feels like playing online …… little by little. Battle online, you can enjoy long after the clear, but this time, I want to be born perfectly but what kind of bargaining. I have put the system in exactly the way wins, players like and will want to Good. – The called “How will want commitment to win”, it is seems to have been in the works as well as a series of ever …?Matsuyama also, it is not it is part of the aesthetics of the player. “At the end refers to the final blow in the mystery” or. But I see, does not it? Tend to be sober battles that no longer use the mystery, and it boils down to normal attacks become good people. I would have thought so, because we have put a new system, and burns very well. – Even if the fight between advanced and become flashy game “3″?Yeah Matsuyama. I’m good thing you’re on a system that occurs in the game, and how to win like that. So, I think I will stick to how to win even good people. Also, I think that happens, because I like born there, good people and bad people even fight, and to ensure that it is a decent game. – Will you mean, there is merit to that mechanism in the system, how to win cool?Matsuyama yes, there is a good thing. In a survey that was carried out after the launch of the “generation” of thought and try to such a system, there is also because I’m actually had been requested by many. Web site is available in the form of CyberConnect2, this is an opinion I have recruited from all over the world, more than 17 000 opinions about is received in a month. – That’s great!Matsuyama anymore, it was more than just very divided (laughs). The greatest, but by opinion still like “! Have to be able to use the character date”, or “! Take out the guy”, I’m there were many demands on the system “system only want you to do this change,” such as I. – You know that many fans hot.Matsuyama also recently, also, the timing of the announcement in the “3″ was solicited opinion as well, in about two weeks time the opinion of more than 30,000 (laughs). – I was even more! (Laughs)Matsuyama However, I have to be able to enter Japan is divided into four, Asia, Europe, North America area, I’m terrible breakdown it is a little (laughs). About 60% of the total in the United States, about 30% is about 10% in Europe, and the remaining regions of the other. And only in Japan, it was about 170. – There is a strong title, especially in Europe and the United States certainly, even when compared to domestic sales volume, it is quite unbalanced.I guess I’m modest Japanese Matsuyama (laughs). Of this total 1 million, 10% of the total since we are selling in Japan, but I is not supposed to be funny if you have opinions of 30000, even though Japan accounts for much of 3000. Anyway, so get a variety of opinions, “and this is because of your tendency, let’s perfectly good fight,” and every day talking. – By the way, you can experience battle TGS version, what degree of perfection, such as how much?It is at all still Matsuyama. Range and it is visible, but I have not seen much only about 20%. I think the feeling of when I play, and vary considerably.● Power up even Boss!- Please tell me about the other elements of the battle.Means “Narutimate Storm” of battle-focused, “Generation” Matsuyama He could also be willing to get everyone to achieve one million books. After all, I was told from people all over the world, “What happened to the Boss,? I do not why,” and though. – Boss Battle “1″, “2″ was so amazing, it would be expected.The current work is a game because of the material, and are making every year, but I’m caught up in the original Matsuyama said. If you do not open the period to some extent, I will get something unsatisfactory in volume. Has made the “Generation” Is there any reason why. – I see. You can work out the other axis that play specialized, it is possible to release a new one that is consistently so that ‘s, became possible.After all, it is said “Boss! Boss!” From everyone in Matsuyama. As such but I know (laughs). In a way that is powered up, put a Boss various adventure mode, I’m making to be able to experience the story, the drama firmly in that, also, this time. Begins with experience in TGS “Kyuubi incident 16 years ago,” Kage meeting, it is expected to draw up to now the latest episode of Shinobi War.- It is going to be amazing also volume. Boss on power-up, would it be more specifically in what way?Such as before and during the battle started, this Boss Matsuyama, I was confronted to the player selected. It is called “Decision Narutimate Substitute” Now, it is a such thing as “the ultimate choice.” Version of the TGS, but I have been part of Removal “ultimate choice”, in this volume are actually faced with the choice. – More specifically, what the “selection” is?Matsuyama root of two is presented, the player can decide how I fight. It is called “hero root” and “root” hero now, I think the “root hero” is a standard, and would choose a lot of people here. “Root hero” is, There are many users, especially Europe and the United States, it is the root from which you have prepared for those who seek a battle that is more crunchy. – Is it the fact that differences in the degree of difficulty?Matsuyama also extremely different and difficult, I’m different from the contents of the play. In the TGS version will have Kyuubi attacked the village, and also appeared in The Man in the Iron Mask …… for example. Do you think it is here, but four Hokage is hero, save the village somehow the Kyuubi, or think that Yondaime should kill the man in the iron mask before it is first. Depending on whether you care about either, I change the order in which fighting. – The order in which the fight, what changes would happen?If you have previously Matsuyama fight Kyuubi, but the scene is shifted from the state during the battle, the battle of the Fourth Man in the Iron Mask vs “Already at that time the Fourth?” On the other hand, after Kyuubi first played the game begin. So it will not start from the situation in which it is incurred damage to each other to some extent. – I see. It is not a big difference in the degree of difficulty there.In addition to Matsuyama, in the middle of the story, for example, in order to control the power of the Kyuubi Naruto, enter into the spiritual world, there is a scene to fight the Kyuubi. In the ultimate choice here, you can choose whether to fight Naruto alone, or in cooperation with the Killer Bee fight is a teacher now. Of course, the better to fight alone, but it is the “root hero” difficult. – I heard many people choose the “root” hero, will want to do both.Matsuyama course, for people who want to do both, have to be able to experience clear properly after. I do not that I “do it again from the beginning.” Because it is a user-friendly company CyberConnect2 (laughs).- In addition, there was a new element made apparent at the moment, please let me know.There is an element called “Secret Factor” Matsuyama, when a certain action in the battle, a special rendition that reproduce the original flow. In the midst of the game, for example, the tips are pooled or have Sasuke Chidori in motion mighty long wait. I feel when I make a Naruto Rasengan by this is that …… you possibly …… that scene switched. I will find that the mechanism which reduces the life to some extent, and the story has raised the flag stands, flag stood acceptance of the secret factor. – Even TGS version, there was a secret factor against the man in the iron mask vs Yondaime Hokage. Instruction has come out to put out the “chakra dash” on the screen, if you issue the “chakra dash” as directed, special scene is played.In the TGS version Matsuyama, but they’ve completely tell you the answer, “and recall the original, such … Is not this kind of thing” Maybe, in fact it would go and explore. But actually “2″, to battle Sasuke vs Itachi, hidden commands of reproduction is original is I did A~tsu in lithospermum. – Is it I was right! ?Yeah Matsuyama. When a player hits the Shuriken Sasuke chakra, chakra shuriken have also shot a weasel of CPU accordingly. Then, the offset occurs between Shuriken, shooting scenes with hundreds of original reproduction, the shuriken is’m flowing. I’m Info impressions from people who have noticed this, “It was good to get used to feeling as if he has been involved in the story,” he said. Well then, this time, I’ll make you put in a lot of battle, the original secret factor of such reproduction. Therefore, in large Boss, I have a secret all factors. – Finally, do you have a message to the readers.And want to tell you that part of the battle, the story mode, but this time it has changed quite Matsuyama first. After that, “Narutimate Series”, a place that I had accumulated more than 9.8 million books. 10 million book, just “Narutimate” a Mochoi. I think it probably can be achieved in this year. – It is a tremendous number! So, as well as commemoration …?Matsuyama of course, I think Mr. NAMCO BANDAI Games will ask you for the full promotional spend money (laughs). Since the exhibit in New York Comic Con from October 13 First of all, I think there, trying to a major announcement on “3″. So I think, somewhere in the three days of the 15th, and announced that from October 13, so please look forward to it. ● Bangaihen interview: Please also tell the story of “JoJo”!- Even though I’m afraid “interview: Ultimate Ninja Storm 3″, speaking of Mr. and Mrs. CyberConnect2 and Namco Bandai Games, has been exhibiting at TGS also “Battle Star JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure”. Here also, can you tell us the story?In the TGS version Matsuyama became a form without a fight CPU, I enjoyed the match with lecture staff. However, even if not they teach, I’m supposed to let you play. Was also introduced in Famitsu, if they accumulate even gauge, just roll □ button, there is a system of “Easy Chain” out mortal, to heart heat attack, if Wamuu “Sandstorm” God, if Jotaro “Oraoraoraora Because I lead easily to ッ! “. – I’m glad action is also versatile.Since putting the command twice as much Matsuyama normal fighting game, the action it is often crap. Instead’re gonna make a fighting tool, only, it is the “ultimate game Jojo” just. – I look and see the Command Table, also seem to be fighting game quite like …?I think style Matsuyama is a game style of fighting, and completely different to the touch. I have become a super game Jojo (laughs). – Who can 試遊 at TGS, per that will have been able to feel sure. Is there anything to the person who has been 試遊, you should tell you something?Matsuyama fact, I have been trying to do without thinking too much gap between, I’m thinking of looking for feedback from people who touch. At a later date, so providing the form to the official site of the “Battle Star JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure”, please let us hear your opinion. I’m thinking this is that you have said from the beginning, because we think it has made representative of the fan, and I want to make together with our customers. This time, TGS, but was happy to present something “This is our answer,” that, because it is the work which has continued for 25 years at any rate, there is absolute respectively everyone, I want to Oh, that’s it, I want it like this I think. I want to say I were rather the opposite position, absolutely “and listen to me” (laughs). – Is not it a lot of fan work that much hot. Production teams, or just love “JOJO” significant?It is abnormal Matsuyama, those guys (laughs). Recently, JoJo exhibition has been held in Sendai, it also, because I ride an airplane in everyone pocket. Well, it is really fun to make, however. It is unbearable (laughs). – I look forward to completion. So also “All-Star Battle JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure”, please give a message to readers who are looking forward to it.More at the official site of Matsuyama, because it also exposes the new trailer, which was announced at TGS, please take a look too. I’m also certain “Battle Star JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure” Actually, even if they are not part of the show is also all battle system, are still in secret. So now we will give information on a regular basis, so please look forward to it.

Just give me Madara Uchiha,thye real one.

well unfortunately in another interview they said they werent gonna have Part1/PTS characters

HA XD

to bad they couldn’t make them like alternate characters like Naruto always has like 3 forms like i wish you could pic a character and then it would ask you what version you wanted to be kinda like some of the drangonball z games could do. 

I don’t see an problem with it, most of the important ninja’s in this war rounds up to about 74 when combined with previous shippuden roster, if it really is over 72 such as 80 ( not that it’s needed ) then it pretty much wraps up all the characters in shippuden. which is an good thing btw  

the only thing that COULD ruin this is if the the EDO zombies are part of this roster list, I’ll be pretty pissed off if I have two different asuma’s or diedara’s when it could’ve been someone actually relevant that’s alive. of course I’m not talking about edo characters who haven’t been introduced of course such as neji’s uncle.

opps sorry about that lol i had a feeling i should of spaced it, yeah same here , i really hope this game lives up to the hype lol -_-

that shouldn’t bother you i really do not care whether he wears that jacket or not. because i see nothing wrong with it. lol is like if you were to wear the same shoes everyday it would def get annoying.

samui :3

theres nothing right or wrong about it, but comparing it to shoes? it depends, are the shoes regular black or big ronald mcdonald clown shoes? cause if it’s the latter I’m pretty sure people will get annoyed looking at clown shoes everyday, same applies to this annoying jacket. besides it’s my personal pet peeve, if it doesn’t bother you kudos to you, me on the other hand seeing constant red gets an bit annoying, makes me wonder if he even washes his clothes lol. kidding

I don’t care how many characters are there as long as I can play the game.

Let see,there’s written Naruto storm Generation has 72 playable characters ok what I understand this time there will be no young version of naruto and all others.So if they say there will be more then 72playable characters in Naruto storm 3 so I guess we can see so many new characters.
This Wht I think.

if this only have 72+ … so this game will only add 12-15 new characters…that sucks so much..

ofcourse shes gonna be in storm 3  she was in all the storm games :P

i just hope they make a tournament mode like they did in generations

Is Ebisu will playable in this game? 
(wtf did i just ask?)

Im hoping for nii yugito, shizune, anko, kurenai, kushina, kurotsuchi, samui, and kurui… heheh i think the more kunoichi the better :3

hmm since generations had a playable count of 72 he could have just basically meant it will have more characters than generations.

ADD FUKING KONOHAMARU 

get off your computer brat, isn’t time for you to be in your middle school class? how about you take care of what’s important isn’t of insulting an guy on the internet about his pet peeves as if you have no life and have nothing else to do in your free time. I know why he wears it mr young G or whatever you people call it these days, and fyi I bet he does wear it to work, look at this picture about you, you think that’s an convention? no it’s an office, so slap yourself in the face. thanks. 

I know but I don’t want a number like 80 or 92,they have to add all the main characters from the war arc,one’s who played a role in the big battles including the edo tensei characters like the past kages,talking about past kages why aren’t they confirmed yet,we are nearing there battles you know,when you think about the number of characters who played a role in the war arc,it’s over a 100(Including storm 2 shippuden characters,as well as storm generations shippuden characters), so they should at least add about a 100,to satisfy,and they know that sometimes characters become repetitive,because of the less amount of combos,they should add a large variety to characters combos,and some which are really different,Naruto is damn boring in almost any of his different characters in storm generations,the same old rasegan,the only one I think was good was sage mode Naruto at least they remade his combos,and kage arc Naruto was BS,I mean why did they put KCM Naruto as awakening he was suppose to be his own characters you know.

And between Storm 3 and storm 4 they will probably make the Generations 2 with all storm 3 chars + youngs ¬¬

     I honestly don’t think 72 characters is necessary, think about it .. when do you actually play with ALL characters in a Storm game? You probably have a rotation of no more than five or six. I’ve probably use Choji like twice! By adding all these characters it means less focus on NEW gameplay mechanics .. and if that’s the case it might as well be downloadable content! Seriously, we’ll see the same old recycled moves and Ultimates .. 100 characters? That’s ridiculous, if they want to produce a GOOD game that feels like an actual sequel as opposed to storm 2.7 then they shouldn’t do more than 40 characters. 

never used chojji, hes fat.

I can agree to disagree, as you stated .. YOUR opinion. (I can have plenty of fun playing with just the characters who have significant roles in the war, and not random shinobi). Can’t wait to try out Sakura’s cousin, Ino’s dad, Shikamaru’s uncle, and everyone else who exist in the Naruto universe that do pretty much nothing! Who cares if they all have the same moves as long as they’re in the game, right? ;D

I’m dawg Sorry but for you Dara fans it’s not looking that way.

Don’t pout guys it could be like when they said Generations was going to have over 65 characters and then ended up having over 70. This is probably what they’re telling us for now.

Me on the other hand,I’m crossing my fingers for Sage Naruto without the cape.

Of course it’ll have more characters than ninja storm generations, it’s a brand new game. It’ll have all the characters from storm generations and many more.
I’m hoping around 20 new characters:

Playable Shizune, Sound 4, Anko, Kurenai, madara  and all resurrected ninjas from the war arc.

dude stop

I’m pretty sure I read something about them taking out all of the part one characters so this means that they have added even more characters to make up for that.

Don’t look that way. Cuz CC2 said that the game would start from the time Naruto was born and skip straight to the Kage arc and then after that it’s the CJ and Ninja War Sagas. Hidans only chances of getting  in this is if they do Road to Ninja story.

yea im looking forward to seeing anko kurotsuchi and pakura x3

Konan will SURELY be in the game, she fought against Tobi, and Jiraiya will be in too. Hiroshi said that all the Shippuden characters who appeared in the past Storm games (except Lars) will be in. I think that the Sound 4 might appear in Kabutomaru’s Jutsu/Combos/Grab/UJ or whatever, but i see all the 6 Jinchuurikis who got ressurected (i already made a list after all :p) being playable characters. They did a lot in the “Naruto & Bee vs Tobi” battle, and for some reason, i think that there’s a high possibility of this happening (after seeing Hanzo and Mifune, which i had no hope for, everything is possible). Talking about this moment, CC2 better not make Rinnegan Tobi work like Pain (with the Jinchuurikis appearing in his Combos), that would ruin the character.

Matsuyama already stated all Shippuden characters that have already been in a game will be returning. They don’t have to be part of the story to be playable, never have. Look at Generations numb-nut. 

72 characters? who cares, almost everyone will be using minato, naruto and sasuke -.-
i hope they include konan! but im pissed off cuz kabuto couldnt revive her.. so no edo tensei konan , i hope her alternate costume is without the akatsuki cloat, just her normal attire 

 LOL no

What the hell are you talking about?

On Ranked Matches, the majority of players use Deidara or Kiba

I love you, no homo

who ever that is getting one piece pirate warriors add me  on ps3- gshazaam

no more pts though PLEASE !!!!! either fix them to fit with the sub system or just kick them out we don’t need them cause each one of them has an annoying trick up his sleeve well most of them 
pts naruto : jutsu/tilt hits again after sub
pts hinata: jutsu hits again  after sub
pts kiba: cant sub his ulti sometimes , specially after subbing one of his hits
pts shino : problem with grab when opponent’s health is below 1 percent .. keep grabbing and the enemy wont die till the third grab -_- 
pts tenten : do i need to explain myself (ninjutsu spam)
pts gaara: ninjutsu spam 
pts sakura and pts lee: 1 short combo almost 3 -5 hits that can break your guard if it hits 2 times (1 after a dash) 
pts kakashi: invulnerability before dashing while executing his jutsu (can be spammed) pts kankuro : tilt that makes one of the most annoying and hard to beat characters in the game and a jutsu that can hit multiple times after subbing it dealing 30 -40 % damage 
pts sasuke pts lee and pts neji : uber fast and if you dash into them while they are using combos you rarely clash and get sucked back in their combos (including kage arc sauke orochimaru and pain)
 
In general pts have ruined the game but we can’t omit the fact  that other characters did that too
pain : it’s almighty push …. not pushes make it hit one time not 6 
onoki : with his stupid ninjutsu that has a weird hit box keep it but let us sub behind onoki not above the rocks again taking the damage of the jutsu twice even three times if you subbed 2 times by mistake 
masked man :  ninjutsu spam and btw his jutsu is like freaking plagiarism the jutsu was used on him by konan in a totally different way and not back then when he only used to be invincible for a certain amount of time  
hidan s lee etc. (as support) : let us sub behind the opponent or the support
s neji and masked man : invincibility after performing jutsu (neji) and failing in landing the ulti (mm) 
s tenten : my main, too weak in this game i win a lot of battles with her but i either end up winning because of the time running out or it just takes a lot of time to beat them  because all she does is minimum damage and using her requires distance (can’t cancel my ranged moves into back-dash which makes it a bit hard and forces me to combo with her) 
karin konan and zabuza : their aerial combos are ridiculously slow and leave them hovering in the air for hours 
zabuza: if an opponent is near zabuza the jutsu doesn’t hit , executing his combos take a lot of time , his tilt takes ages to hit so how do you expect us to use him
S kankuro: uber OP mode (awakening) getting hit by his jutsu in awakening subbing it and then getting hit by it again obliterates almost 50 % of your health
kirin and taka sasuke : enhanced  shuriken leaves them hovering in mid-air for quiet sometime leaving them vulnerable to anything and they can also spam it 
S sakura : endless tilt spam 
chiyo : left combo that stuns you (stops you from moving completely) 
S kiba : double dash with akamaru ,  it wasn’t a problem in storm 2 but here with the sub bar it is , i would sub kiba’s dash to find myself hit by akamaru’s and after subbing his combos you just get caught in them again 
obito : endless grab 
first hokage : endless grab (grab shuriken grab shuriken …)
killer bee : jutsu hits again after subbing
danzo : op awakening and endless tilt spam 
they shouldn’t forget to give ranged characters cancels for their ranged moves 
loss for those who dc
being able to sub while jumping to the side (which isn’t available in this game forcing us to jump block –> guard braking faster .. DAT COOKIE GUARD ! 

However with the type of game naruto is having that many characters build the gameplay experience. Look at dbz for example with ultimate tenkaichi they only put forty some odd charcters in it and left out major characters and even characters that weren’t as important but were still fan favorites. I myslef play with all characters on generations so having a lot of character is a good thing. But they don’t need to overwhelm the game with characters that dont really need to be in it.

‘Kay, so it goes from the report of over 100, to “LOLOLOL the same thing we slyly said for Generations” ._.

I also heard that there would be 105 playable characters

no

i hope so

this better be a great game gen has to many problem people that think im wrong please go away because if you gen is just all wrong

Where are true kunoichi on your list? Kurenai, anko, shizune, pakura, kushina

DUDE DUDE, to much text, just wrap it up that PTS characters are something that you don’t want included in storm 3….. Also Agree with Brock Cooley, fail becuase they already said they weren’t going to include the PTS characters or will not make an appearance. Haku and Zabuza are going to be in it though, but as edo-tensi versions in the 4th ninja war, wich the game is going to be foucing on including all the characters with it…. Meaning – all those PTS characters with an added limit over 72+ playable characters = A hell of a lot of new characters in the game.

i hope they put jiraiya back in this too and as goes for lars

why dont he put all the character from naruto 1 comic book until now

 ….dude, really? he isnt just hating. your obviously a child. They didnt work on naruto ultimate ninja storm generations very hard at all. It had SO many problems. oonoki throws too many rocks, you substitute that jutsu at all. Young rock lee’s awakening jutsu is BROKEN. if it hits your gaurd type. it also hits you. Young Ten Ten throws too many weapons to be able to sub. They made a move set for karin. KARIN!!! then they said they couldnt put the sound four in the game because they didnt know what moveset to make for them. karin has NEVER fought. do you understand now? just because you dont understand doesnt mean he is hating.

i am starting to think that mifune hanzo and darui will be the only new charcters

best idea ever… lol

i hope we can use Madara Uchiha and all other characters in the 4 ninja war like Nagato, Obito ecc. ecc.

im hoping that the Sevens Swordsmen will be playable, I’m pretty sure Zabuza is gonna be a playable because past Naruto’s games have Zabuza as a playable character, I hope that this new Naruto Game is gonna be EPIC! and SICK!
