Nikkoru:
There's damn good reason Sasuke wouldn't know, and no one would tell him the truth of his back-story/motivation.

Naruto's "lonely misfit orphan who's looked down upon by all until he wins them over with friendship, hard work, and victory" back story/motivation is considerably less gripping when he's the son of the martyred Hokage, the fact that he wasn't aware of who his parents were seems too much of a convenience to spring on him this late into the series - given that, he should have provided a more solid reason then a vague "it'd be troublesome to discuss it".

zherok:
It was less the issue of whether Sasuke would know as it was the fact that there was no way in hell the author had that in mind all the way back to the opening chapters.

I don't see why not. I fully believe that Sasuke is the main character of this manga :P

I figure this one at least had the advantage of being alluded to for the reader for quite a while. I thought the Itachi revelations were worse in terms of "you can't be serious." I don't necessarily disagree with where it's put Sasuke, but you figure the entire backstory of Saskue, every single action he's done, his primary reason for living, has been a manipulation by Itachi. In fact, it was so subtle a plot that the long thought dead founder of his clan had to tell it to him for him to even know. Naruto got off light just finding out his father was the 4th.

.....and now Sasuke's life is being manipulated by Madara, he can't catch a break can he?

Seriously. How many arcs of "training" did Naruto have to go through for Sasuke to just look at someone funny and develop a new eye technique.

Madara seems a bit less subtle about it, but yeah, not a happy life.
