Naruto Shippūden: Gekitō Ninja Taisen! EX (NARUTOナルト 疾風伝 激闘忍者大戦! EX, lit. Naruto Shippūden: Great Ninja Battle! EX) is the fifth installment of the Clash of Ninja series only for Japan. This game is the first game in the series to be released for the Wii, and was released in Japan on December 28, 2006.[18] The game uses the Wii Remote by waving the controller in different directions, but the GameCube controller and the Wii Classic controller can be used as well. The game takes place during the Naruto: Shippūden series, specifically the Kazekage Rescue arc. The game replaces the cast of characters in the previous games with a new set based specifically on the Shippūden series.
