Dragon Ball Fighters is too boring for me to call it the pinnacle of anything
Very pretty, though.

Are the Naruto: Ultimate Ninja Storm games the pinnacle of licensed anime games?
- Thread starter jack_package_200

I did, its trash. Oh wow most of my enemies are darker versions of the good guys!?!?!?!
i mean the story mode is trash, basically filler battles until you get to the next part, also again the cutscenes suck since everyone moves like dolls with nothing impressive happening
no.
this is.
This.
I wish Nintendo could get the license one last time.
I just want one last game in the Jump Stars series.

They're not even the best Naruto games.
It's these.

This is the best licensed game period.no.

I played those so much, so so much, with my friends. Great games.
The story mode is something most FighterZ fans would tell you sucks ass lol. It was good at first, but drags on for far too long.
Naruto Clash of Ninja/Gekitou Ninja Taisen are better games, imo. Especially Naruto GNT4 on Gamecube.
I guess if all you're looking for to have the "pinnacle" of licensed anime games is just a beautiful recreation of the anime + large character roster with little gameplay substance then sure Storm games probably are the pinnacle (some would argue DBZ Budokai Tenkaichi 2 or 3)

Ah damn my brain skipped the anime.
My bad.
Erm.. I got nothing
Is there an option to auto-advance dialogue in FighterZ's story mode yet? Having to press a button every time I want to advance the slow-ass cutscenes is the reason I haven't finished it yet. Sure, I could just mash through it, but I kinda care about what's happening.
Depends on what you want out of an anime game.
In terms of replicating all the moments of the anime/manga and playing as all the characters? Sure, the UNS series is probably the best along with the Tenkaichi/Xenoverse games.
In terms of actually being good game? Nope
In terms of being a good fighting game? Nope, the GNT and Narutimate series were better Naruto fighting games. Fighterz reigns above them all though.

The presentation is shockingly good. It's hard to beat this level of work. Dbz Fighterz is up there too.
Yeah that is exactly what I hope for in an adaption of an anime like Naruto, give me the insane fights with alle the flashiness.. While I liked Kakarot, I was super let down by the fact that the main Bossfights were mostly normal fights. A huge downgrade on that front for the developer. I still wish for a Dragonball game in the vein of UNS....
I'd seriously love an anime series of Asura's Wrath, with animation that does it justice, of course.
Allow me to present a case for
Specifically the Wii version
-Exhaustive character list of every major character without having to get too esoteric (Tenkaichi 3 went too far to the point that it included background extras as playable characters)
-YOU DO THE KAMEHAMEHA MOTION WITH THE WIIMOTE AND YOU DO A KAMEHAMEHA IN GAME
-An insanely comprehensive story mode that covered pretty much the entire story of Dragon Ball Z, most of the movies up to that point, most of GT, and even some of Dragon Ball.
-An insanely extensive arcade mode with different ladders to give you a lot of different groups of enemies to play through
-YOU DO THE KAMEHAMEHA MOTION WITH THE WIIMOTE AND YOU DO A KAMEHAMEHA IN GAME
-Seriously, the motion/pointer controls of the Wii version were so good this game was low key an early game that actually genuinely showed off in a really good way what the Wii could do
-RPG mechanics to customize characters for the story mode
-YOU DO THE KAMEHAMEHA MOTION WITH THE WIIMOTE AND YOU DO A KAMEHAMEHA IN GAME
-Despite being an anime arena fighter, it actually managed to balance complexity with accessibility. Was probably the first DBZ game to actually really full on get the feel of a Dragon Ball fight down right
-All the moves look like the right moves
-YOU DO THE KAMEHAMEHA MOTION WITH THE WIIMOTE AND YOU DO A KAMEHAMEHA IN GAME
-You can play as Mr Satan and his moveset in the game is priceless
My biggest issue with the Budokai Tenkaichi games is how budget everything looks compared to the original Budokai games. Not to mention a LOT of the characters felt too samey in how they played. If it weren't for that, I'd say Tenkaichi 3 would be one of the best anime licensed games out there.
As it stands, I found the OG Budokai series better overall.
Yeah.
Holy shit, is this one of Naruto OPs? It's super close to the Gundam Iron Blooder Orphans 4th OP.
They not nailed the naruto vs sasuke dynamic three games in a row, (2,3,4). They straight up did it better than the source material. Three games in a row.
OP

I have heard the games are straight up a better adaptation than the anime
They're literally the best way to experience Naruto. It's a shame CC2 got stuck with DBZ as a follow-up instead of a series they could get creative with.

I am showing my age but a Yu Yu Hakusho adaptation could be incredible
