Presumably Xbox One when it comes to the West as well.

There's also another Naruto game that's actually new, but that will get its own thread momentarily.

Whoa! Never played the other three so this is good news for me!

I wonder if with the DLC they'll include the ones that were preorder only and were never made available afterwards.

But will all the DLC be included on the disc, and if so, will there be more DLC 'not' on the disc, nullifying the reason for a physical release in the first place?

I cannot wait to get to see if they spent time tonremaster the PS3 first chapter of the series, the one where they understood free roaming in a 3D city was enjoyable ;). The only problem with that art style was aliasing IMHO.

I assume that it's only a port, not a remaster?

Also, will the trilogy (combined with Storm 4) cover the whole story of the show ?

Will buy if the games are running at 60fps :) the animation looks so nice but I don't think there's any point for me to buy these again if they're not 60fps

For you.
Oh man if this results on 1 and 2 coming to PC that would be amazing, especially if they make it 60fps like they did with 4

About time. Too bad the
Wave Country and Killer Bee vs. Sasuke
arcs are stuck in Generations.

No 4? Hmm, well, I suppose that actually works out well. I'll get Boruto then the trilogy so I can have it all. I miss 2 quite a bit, and I never got to play 1.

Yeah, neither Generations nor UNS4. Generations is my fav one so that's a bummer.

Wished they had included Storm 4 as well. Would've been an instant buy for me.

I think people are viewing this trilogy in the wrong manner. It is only meant as a way to bring last gen only games(1, 2 and 3) to current gen, not meant to be seen as some type of ultimate collection. Maybe that will come in the future but it's not this. Think of it as just another remastered collection, like how Rocksteady remastered the Arkham games.

Ooh, yeah, good point. Silly me.

Now, if only they can bring back the left/right combos for the later games.

Wait, is this, like, HD-er? I didn't see "remaster" mentioned anywhere. Be a bit of a bummer if it wasn't.

I only like the first one for the free roam exploring like a open world game
Wish they could've expanded on that in the later sequels but they scrapped it into ones just goto a person in this small part

Also after 1 the graphics kept getting downgraded and features/mechanics removed

Nice, always wanted to play the whole series, only was missing the first one. Waiting for the Xbox release on the west. I will wait for a discounted price, though.

Hopefully the collection comes to PC as well. Honestly, I find that this series to basically be the best way to experience Naruto at this point - generally a lot less fat, and a fuckton more style, even if the gameplay substance might leave something to be desired.

Also, it's astonishing how well the first game holds up to the rest despite being a PS2 game. I guess CC2 really nailed the visual look the first time around. It's really frustrating that Bamco never got them to make a Dragon Ball game - a CC2-developed DBZ game would be absolutely incredible.

Would like 1+2 on PC, but if not I don't mind getting on PS4.
Problem with PC though, they still havent fixed issues with 60fps on the PS4 version.
You can't do one of the challenges on the final boss in the boruto dlc at 60fps anyway.

This is great news!
After playing 4 for a good amount of time I almost imported the trilogy on PS3 but I'd much rather wait and be able to have it on PS4.

Can't you just get 4 and watch cutscenes of the previous lot on YT?
Given that 4 effectively has (mostly) the whole roster of the previous games.

Cool

I really liked how you could run around Konoha and climb the buildings in the first one. (Didn't like collecting scrolls so much)

I hope this means new trophy lists for all the games. Would love to play through all these again.

Pretty much just waiting for Bandai Namco to tweet about this coming to the west at this point.

Very cool, especially if someone wants to experience the story.

But maaaaaaaan that's a lot of content, I mean, yeah it's great bang for your buck, but considering how basic the combat is in these games, you'll burn out quick if you play them all in succession.

Also, those cutscenes, lawd, had a 50~ minute cutscene in Ninja Storm 3 a few days ago.
