In a change of pace from Natsume's other ''Power Rangers'' games, this game has different scenarios depending on which team you play as. While they all play the same, the Wind Rangers (Red, Blue, and Yellow), Thunder Rangers (Crimson and Navy), and the Green Samurai Ranger all have their own separate playthroughs, weapons, and Megazords to fight with. It doesn't create THAT much variety, but more than past games.

''Power Rangers Ninja Storm'' is a side-scrolling BeatEmUp developed by Creator/{{Natsume}} and published by Creator/{{THQ}} for the UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance in September 2003. It is based on the ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' season of the [[Series/PowerRangersNinjaStorm same name]].
Lothor is attempting to conquer the world by getting rid of the Ninja Academies, pitting them all against one another. By using the Wind, Thunder, or Samurai Rangers, the player has to defeat Lothor and his goons before the world is conquered.
In a change of pace from Natsume's other ''Power Rangers'' games, this game has different scenarios depending on which team you play as. While they all play the same, the Wind Rangers (Red, Blue, and Yellow), Thunder Rangers (Crimson and Navy), and the Green Samurai Ranger all have their own separate playthroughs, weapons, and Megazords to fight with. It doesn't create THAT much variety, but more than past games.
There was also a PC game released the same year by ARTECH Studios, also published by THQ. Instead of a brawler, it is instead a collection of minigames. You can ride a motorcycle through an obstacle course, attempt to grab flags by hang-gliding down a mountain, play a clone of VideoGame/{{Breakout}}, play a single-screen shooter, and more before you helm the Storm Megazord to take town Lothor's latest monster.
