Oh, Clash of Ninja. A surprisingly decent little fighting game. CON2 was more fleshed out, but both were actually decent. I miss them.
I think it's a bit too button mashy. So it's pretty easy for even a noob like me to beat story or one-player mode by just spamming the B button like I'm Saitama from "One Punch Man".

Though I suppose that's preferable to the almost 500 turns I spent on defeating a single boss in episode 13 of my "Etrian Odyssey III" run with just a hoplite.
I dunno, CON2 had some pretty broken characters. Fights against Gaara were tough, he would block absolutely everything, then attack you with nearly unlockable attacks from anywhere in the arena.

But, having said that, I admit that the balance was pretty off. And the enemy AI can be pretty predictable. It's fun if you want to feel like a super powerful ninja badass. But not exactly ripe for competitive play. Then again, I've never been a competitive gamer, so that might be why I like it.
I'm not really a competitive player either. I just find the game a bit too easy as Naruto to simply overwhelm most of the computer opponent's with mindless button mashing to consider it interesting. It doesn't even reach the level of forcing you to learn a basic combo like the Kamehameha Wave in the Dragon Ball Z: Budokai] series of games.

Though to be fair, "Uzumaki Chronicles" and "Uzumaki Chronicles 2" on the PS2 are pretty similar in that regard. Albeit the second game is probably better simply because it allows the player to improve Naruto's strength and defense so it's easier to deal with some of the bosses that have insane amounts of HP and defense. And it's possible to farm insane amounts of experience once you've beaten the main story once.

Though I will agree the second game is a lot harder with Gaara's automatic defense really making it hard to pummel him into submission.
