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 centers around the Land of Waves arc, supplemented by additional missions featuring Team 7.

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

Despite its numbering, Naruto RPG 2: Chidori vs. Rasengan is the sequel to Naruto: Path of the Ninja. This 2005 Tomy Nintendo DS title remained exclusive to Japan. The narrative follows the Search for Tsunade arc, concluding with Sasuke's escape from Konoha.

Concluding the series is Naruto: Path of the Ninja 2, another Tomy Nintendo DS game. Released in Japan in 2006, it saw a global release in 2008. Unlike its predecessors, this entry features an original, non-canon storyline centered around the Three Ryūdōin Brothers and a unique Anbu ally character.

These five games, while uniquely titled, collectively form a significant part of the Naruto gaming legacy.
