Back in November, we showed you the very first Japanese PlayStation Vita commercial. It was short, running at only 15 seconds. In it, a guy is riding on a bike, the screen flashes “the future of games will change,” and that was about it, all wrapped-up with a PlayStation Vita logo at the end.

Naruto Shippuden Ultimate Ninja Impact is the first of the PSP-based Ultimate Ninja games to take the fighting into 3D space, and while it hits the mark in a lot of the right places, there isn’t really anything that makes Impact truly stand out.
