Last on TOMY's reveals concerning this Wii fighting game was the addition of paper bombs. In the series, these are strips of paper (typically attached to throwing daggers) that act as fuses. Once the paper is burned away, a large explosion occurs. In
Clash of Ninja Revolution 2, these act like grenades that you will either be able to throw at the ground near an opponent or at the enemy themself and it will stick to them. Since this attack uses quite a bit of chakra, and the process for throwing the paper bomb can leave you open for a few seconds, this new mechanic is designed to add an extra strategic element to the game.
TOMY went on to talk about their other upcoming release, Naruto: Path of the Ninja 2 for the Nintendo DS. We have already reported that this strategy RPG game will sport a pretty extensive Wi-Fi battle system, but what we didn't know was the use of "Region Cards" to help show who you've gone up against from around the country. Basically, by beating a person in another part of the country, you will receive a tradable card. Collecting these cards and earning points online will not only unlock new armor, items and equipment, but there are even a couple of characters that will be unlocked through extensive online play. Each state will have a Region Card, as well as Canada and Mexico.
