The way I would like to see them made would be an rpg where the fights are more like one on one fighters or even something like Final fight with hundreds of characters in a free for all.
Duuuude! Naruto game? the answer is too obvious! beat em up with the ability to gain exp. points, learn new moves and and general rpg stuff. It's the way god would have intended a naru-tooooow game! Think about it dude

Okay... >_O
But yeah Ally, Definitely do Beat 'em ups. I absolutely despise making (Heh... rather, febily trying ) RPGs.
Have you played Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm on the PS3? Awesome game. Its a beat em up but with an amazing Anime style thing goin on. Naruto inspiration if iv ever seen it.
I don't have a PS3. I've got a PS2 tho. I've played ONE Naruto game before; IMO it wasn't half bad. Filmwise, I thought Naruto was OK. The first episodes were spectacular, I say.
I dunno, both are pretty darn tough to make, but in very different ways. I'd say beat 'em up is better

Beat-em-ups are more fun. RPGs are also going to take longer to make (if you want a good one), cause the good ones are always epicly huge in scope, taking months to finish playing, and depend heavily upon a good storyline.
Quite honestly, I'd rather read a good book than to waste my time with an RPG. With a RPG, I have to fight endless meaningless battles where I don't have full control over the character before I get to see what happens next in the story. With a book I just smoothly read through the words and let my imagination do the rest.
If you want to make a truly balanced and fun to play beat-em-up, then take a look at King of Dragons for SNES, and make a similar style.
It's also probably the easiest style to make since you only have the one attack that gains in power and ability, and a jump.
There is a magic attack too that I rarely use. Yea, I still play King of Dragons even though I beat it on the highest difficulty (just with the elf tho). If you learn all the patterns and tricks, you can actually beat the game without getting hit. It's a tough game to even beat though, that's why I say it's such a balanced game, it can be beat without taking damage, but good luck trying.
Blood of the Ancient One, Seen only as Shadow, Faster than Lightning, Fierce as the Greatest Dragon, Nearly Invisible, Floating in a Dream, Entered through the Demon Door, Destroyer of Evil in a Realm with a Red Sky Scarred, Who could I be ?
I had fun playing Naruto: Uzumaki Chronicles 2 for the ps2 with my sister. You play a made up story based on some puppet soldiers causing some trouble with the odd non main character joining in based on the story and a second player can always join in. You gain EXP and money from the enemies and can level up any of the characters as well as buying upgrades for them.
There is also a mission mode to play but they're usually something like beating up 20 thieves in 2 minutes or something lame.
Also the camera with 2 players is the worst thing I've ever seen, its horrible.
But it's still surprisingly fun especially spamming people with hundreds of naruto's shadow clones. (and in turn annoying my sister who wants all of the money)
