Off the top of my head, I think its pretty apparent that Gaara and Nagato are two characters who endured a worse childhood than Naruto. Unlike them, Naruto usually had a role model nearby that conveniently served as an anchor to keep him from straying too far, as Sasuke has(among several other things). And, even despite that, Naruto was still willing to diverge from his ideals at one point.

He didn't save Sasuke, he lost Jiraiya, half his village actually perished and he was still holding onto his beliefs. In contrast, Obito cracked immediately.

Except that Naruto "cracked" during the Pein fight and Minato had to stop him from literally giving himself to hatred and being consumed by the Kyuubi : /
Naruto himself fully acknowledged that he could have ended up consumed by hatred as Sasuke did very easily, had certain circumstances been different in their lives, as per his conversation with Sasuke after the Danzou battle.
