Of course simple gameplay, simple graphics and occasional translation-related titters (early in the game, a playful Naruto informs his sensei Kakashi that “I’m just getting you back for nailing me in the rear earlier!”) won’t deter the young and devoted audience for which the game is intended. And as a training ground for all the better looking and playing RPGs of the world, the entertaining Path of the Ninja does its job. Call it Before They Were RPGs: a trip back to the days when the genre was simple, looked bad, and just wanted to be taken as seriously as the other, cooler genres.
