Kicking off the Path of the Ninja series is Naruto: Konoha Ninpōchō, a 2003 release exclusive to Japan's Bandai WonderSwan Color handheld system. This console, launched in 1999, never saw international distribution, limiting the game's reach. The game primarily focuses on the Land of Waves arc, incorporating additional missions for Team 7.

2. Naruto: Konoha Senki (2003)

Another Japan-only title, Naruto: Konoha Senki, developed by Tomy for the Game Boy Advance, arrived in 2003. It covers the anime's initial 70 episodes, encompassing the Land of Waves and Chūnin Exams arcs. Initially, players control only Team 7 and Kakashi, with additional characters unlockable later.

3. Naruto: Path of the Ninja (2004)

Interestingly, Naruto: Path of the Ninja is the third game chronologically. Also a Tomy production (2004), it initially launched on the Nintendo DS in Japan before a global Game Boy Advance port. The game's storyline covers early anime arcs, culminating in the Chūnin Exams.
