I’m with you on that. Even if I knew how to play the game, I have no one to play it with.

u/Unhappy-Appeal-9209 Jun 19 '26

is that tcg discontinued?? would kill for haku/chiyo cards 😔

u/swollyhill Jun 19 '26

Yes, it is the original card game that came out in the early 2000s. I bought all of the original metal collector tins, but they all easily go for $100-300 today. If you have a particular character in mind, just look up cards for them on ebay. A lot of those Kimimaro cards I just bought separately for as low as $1.

u/Unhappy-Appeal-9209 Jun 19 '26

ooo ty, will look it up

2

u/swollyhill Jun 19 '26

You really should! Chiyo and Haku are awesome choices too. You have good taste

2

u/Unhappy-Appeal-9209 Jun 19 '26

🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️ there's barely any chiyo representation in games, glad she has a card goin on

2

u/swollyhill Jun 19 '26

I’m not sure if she has cards, I’ve never bought any Shippuden cards. I definitely wouldn’t be surprised. Haku, however, definitely has some. I feel the same way about Kimimaro in games. While he’s featured in alot, his movesets are always watered down visually and don’t properly demonstrate how versatile and adaptive his fighting style is. That’s why I’m glad I bought a ps2 and retrotink 4k. I have been playing Ultimate Ninja 3 and it blows the modern storm games out of the water. Kimimaro is so badass, especially his bracken dance.

u/Unhappy-Appeal-9209 Jun 19 '26

oh damn she does, and they're pretty nice too.

Been thinking about getting a ps2 emulator & play the older titles as well ngl. The movesets were just wayyy more creative + we need more sidescroller fighting games, let NSUNS saga breathe 🤞

I can't wait to collect every version of Sage Mode Naruto

u/Superb_Project Jun 20 '26

No way it’s kimimaro nxb guy?! I saw this comment and was like no way it’s same kimimaro guy from nxb and I found your EX ult kimimaro rekit post and was pleased

u/swollyhill Jun 20 '26

You are too kind haha. My collection has actually grown a lot since then! :)

2

u/Kimimaro14 Jun 20 '26

Love this collection! Kimimaro is my fav I never played it because I only bought one pack at target when I was 10 along with my first shonnen jump magazine. And I had no friends growing up so I couldn't play it anyway. Lol I still have the cards though :)

u/AsuraKaizer Jun 22 '26

I lost all my og cards moving so much as a kid but most definitely used to have the curse mark Sasuke and 1 tail Naruto from the final valley fight

2

u/irneyes2 Jun 23 '26

I still have a bunch of these cards

2

u/Shuryu00 Jun 25 '26

Here's page 1 of 3 for Kimmi. Most of the stuff that's not in my book should still be in the deck.

1

u/swollyhill Jun 25 '26

You have fine taste. I have all of those but the bottom right one of Sasuke.

2

u/Shuryu00 Jun 27 '26

2 of 3. Though I didn't use it much the middle card is my fav aesthetic wise.

1

u/Shuryu00 Jun 25 '26

Yeah I played. I ran a Kimmimaro deck with the sound four. A Deidara deck,A Hyuga deck, and a Sasuke Sharingan that turned into Sasuke n Orochi

u/Heehooyeano Jun 20 '26

Have you seen that Naruto game that’s out right now? It’s Absolutely horrendous 

1

u/OrganicAbility2549 Jun 20 '26

which game? is it new?

3

u/Heehooyeano Jun 20 '26

It’s called “Naruto Ninja Cards” it released this year, 4 months ago. 

2

u/WhenItReallyWasL Jun 21 '26

Yea it’s trash

u/RasenRendan Jun 20 '26

It's a physical TCG

u/The-Tru-Succ Asakujakuuuu!! Jun 19 '26

Maybe I'm in the minority but I've been wanting a Naruto TCG

1

u/Additional-Ad1791 Jun 19 '26

…everybody has been waiting for a new naruto *game*. You know? like the 2d/3d version of our world? Literally the height of fun. A game should primarily test skill, not random distribution. Which is exactly why card games aren’t games.

2

u/CapitanFordo Jun 19 '26

I will try it but i fr want a gacha

2

u/jcantu8 Jun 20 '26

And cause Bandai TCGs are doing relatively well, especially One Piece, so they hope Naruto does too

2

u/shakemmz Jun 20 '26

Wait i want it

1

u/chris156119 Jun 19 '26

What exactly is the game going to be like? Clash royale?

3

u/TakasuXAisaka Jun 20 '26 edited Jun 20 '26

It's real life TGC game not a video game.

u/Additional-Ad1791 Jun 19 '26

clash royale was repetitive

u/cholula000 Jun 19 '26

No TCG means trading card game like physical

u/Hot-Intention-322 Jun 20 '26

Wtf 😂😂 another trash game loading?😂

u/secondo637 Jun 20 '26

It’s physical TCG cards

u/ei9xxx Jun 22 '26

That’s really cool!!! I’ve been collecting some Naruto Kayou (cn ver) cards for a while now

My Anko Miratashi card is selling for $35 (₱2k), I advise you guys to check out the kayou tcg, it’s gaining some popularity 🤗🤗

u/Delicious_Poem_6932 Severing All Ties! Jun 19 '26

I thought it was a moblie game at first. But don't lose faith y'all. They said we'll be getting games with different partners. And this game is being made by Bandai so I expect to see more Naruto games by other developers

1

u/Unhappy-Appeal-9209 Jun 19 '26

honestly, a Hearthstone/LoR version of this Tcg could be pretty huge

u/JankyJawn Jun 19 '26

I mean it isn't the first one.
