The inaugural title in the Naruto: Path of the Ninja series, Naruto: Konoha Ninpōchō, was released in 2003 exclusively for the Bandai WonderSwan Color in Japan. This handheld console, launched in 1999, never saw an international release, much like the game itself. The storyline of Konoha Ninpōchō centers on the Land of Waves arc, supplemented by additional missions undertaken by Team 7.

Developed by Tomy for the Game Boy Advance, this game encompasses the first 70 episodes of the Naruto series, covering the Land of Waves and Chūnin Exams arcs. Initially, players can only control Team 7 and Kakashi, but subsequent playthroughs unlock additional characters.

The game's narrative spans the early arcs of the anime, culminating in the Chūnin Exams arc.

It features the Three Ryūdōin Brothers as the main antagonists and introduces an original Anbu character as the player's ally.
