The Official Gekitou Ninja Taisen 4 Thread

no i didnt mean take out Iruka, in GTN3 they made Iruka/Mizuki as 2 seperate characters when they have same move list / special. in GTN2 if u press X on iruka it turns into mizuki thats fine but wasting a character slot for same move char juss looking diff is juss BS.

But Mizuki and Iruka don’t have exactly the same attacks anymore. Let alone space isn’t an issue in character select since they made it scrolling style instead of having them all on screen at once.

That’s true, they are different enough now to be considered two seperate characters. I like the new scrolling method as opposed to the character select screen. Not just for the fact that the last screen was getting jumbled, but because Eighting is actually making an effort to change even the slightest things in each new release.

Anyway guys, here’s a new link for the above image that wouldn’t load:

Also, the official site has been updated; it’s nothing we don’t know, but here is the link anyways:

Here’s TV Tokyo’s website, as well:

Three weeks from today boys! This means that we will only see maybe one or two updates before the launch. Either way, I’ll do my best to get them in this thread ASAP.:tup:

EDIT: I forgot to tell you guys that I heard Naruto has a new ability: he can create a Kage Bunshin that is controlled by AI, and lasts for a specific period of time.
Wow.

I can’t wait for this game to come out I have beenplaying the hell out of GTN3 for a while now.

and did I just look at something wrong or does it look like you get a Pokun Plushie for pre ordering this someplace?

Anyone know what the caption for that page that shows Kiba’s u+B? was wondering if that flash was just a graphical change or something else.

Time for me to win more NGNT tournaments.

Does that mean now Sasuke has 3 costumes? Or is the old one going to be replaced since it’s the same bar the loss of the forearm bands?

Check this stuff out, guys:

-Transformations and gates opening are now Back X which the old down X is just X like it was before.
-The generic 3 man specials from GNT3 are still in for teams that don’t have any special relation to eachother. so the idea of the Throw, Juggle and Finish seems unlikely at this point.
-Switching characters is done with Z and requires little chakra, also all 3 team members must have full chakra to do a team special (they regenerate chakra if not in use)

Good sweet lord, I can’t wait for this game; they fix the only shitty thing about GNT3: the team Specials!:tup:

I think the running sidestep is still going to have a much more long lasting effect unless the tag system is done well. I’m not likeing that you have to cycle characters to tag either =/

Yeah, alot of the mechanics have changed, meaning the fourth installment is going to be the one with the most depth.
Personally, I like the cycle tag system; it means you have to be that much more strategic.

I’m only now just realizing how much this game is going to differ from the last three games; there will be many, MANY things to get re-accustomed to.
If the combos get bigger, then that possibly means that KnJ’ing is going to be either a. more numerous or b. not as easy to do. I say this only due to the fact that maybe we will be given less opportunities to KnJ because maybe it will take up more chakra. However, I haven’t seen any proof as to a change in the Chakra meter.

By the way, only thirteen days left until Naruto: Gekitou Ninja Taisen 4 ships! Does everyone have theirs pre-ordered? I hope so.

I have mine with Bleach GC! but I’m not sure if they’ll wait for Bleach to come out before shipping mine. I did ask them and waiting for a responce.

I remember play-asia posting that you shouldn’t pre-order Bleach and Naruto together because it may mess up your shipping. Granted, this was before the official release date, so it may have changed since then.
I unfortunately cannot afford Bleach GC until after the new year or after Christmas.

I just pre-ordered mine today, as well as Bleach GC. Do you get anything for it though? I saw some like Pakkun plush-whatever thing.

if you reserved early enough you get the thing, you probably won’t get it.

Oh, poopey.

Well, there’s always eBay.:tup:

Hey Guys,

Expect an update within the next day or so.

Play-Asia told me they’d wait for Bleach GC! to come out before shipping (since I preordered both at the same time). Not a problem really since I’m not getting the game till X-Mas. While I could buy the games, I want something to look forward to for Christmas, and those 2 were ideal choices.

I really hope with more updates they’ll show if theres any new characters (even though we’ve had 8 revealed so far)

Anyone know if djb13 plans to do anything GNT4 wise? Even though he only done a video for GNT3 (and NH2 but that’s a different series) it wouldn’t feel like a proper release if there wasn’t a flashy GNT4 combo video from him as well</pressure>

OMG, it’s GEN! NOW this thread feels complete.

As for a vid, I might try makin one. I have a crude way to record if I can get someone to add music to it

Find Oninoko and have him help you. As long as you guys remember to convert the shit, it should be fine. Also, your vid will be of some good quality, too.:tup:

Oh and Snowman…Shuuhei owns. Nice av.
