Just found this article in Japanese about some game Comcast and TBS are partnering up with for ANW specifically. Figured general ANW would be best to post this. I skimmed the article and didn't see any spoilers or anything.

It's going to be for Android? That's all I wanted to know.

Sounds like it will be for Android/iOS available tomorrow if I'm reading the google translation correct.

After playing this game for 10 minutes, I put it down. The game is so effin laggy that its impossible to put up a perfect run. Plus, it seems like the makers of this game may have at the most watched the intro and then decided to make a game off of that. Basically you have to do stupid bs parkour through all of the levels! When you get to level 4, they finally have death spots. And if you fall in them, there is CHECKPOINTS! Add that the "midoriyama" levels are basically bonus rounds with no goal, you should NOT buy this game. Go play UnrealCanine's game. This is such a dissapointment and a waste of $2.

Laggy? checkpoints? that sounds like the Wipeout iOS game (which I hope I pay the same for this that I did for that, $0)
Here's hoping it shows up on appcake since I want to try it but not waste money on it

Thanks Ube for updating how long this game has been out. I didn't know that. After playing this game for 10 minutes, I put it down. The game is so effin laggy that its impossible to put up a perfect run. Plus, it seems like the makers of this game may have at the most watched the intro and then decided to make a game off of that. Basically you have to do stupid bs parkour through all of the levels! When you get to level 4, they finally have death spots. And if you fall in them, there is CHECKPOINTS! Add that the "midoriyama" levels are basically bonus rounds with no goal, you should NOT buy this game. Go play UnrealCanine's game. This is such a dissapointment and a waste of $2. Sucks it's as bad as it looked when I they posted that screencap. So far the only one that looks at all like Sasuke is the one ap a couple years ago that Ube posted videos for us?

I dunno the current availability of Sasuke Challenger, I know existing downloads still work but not sure if it can still be bought as it was by Digital9 (a subdivision of now gone Monster9). TBH that game had repetitive gameplay and only having 23's course didn't help things, I still payed for that to support Sasuke though
EDIT: Sasuke Challenger is still available, looked for this one in the App Store to find out what it's fully called, Sasuke Challenger is right above Ninja Warrior Game when searching "ninja warrior"

Yeah, I'm going to second the "Don't get this". Not even if you find a free version, it's not really worth anyone's time or money. It wasn't laggy for me during the game, so I guess I'm "fortunate" in that respect, but yeah, just a matter of swiping up, down and right. I love parkour, but they seem to not understand that believe it or not, it's not the most advantageous method.

Here's the official trailer. This shouldn't be confused with Sasuke Challenger. In fact, it looks nothing like Sasuke Challenger. Or the actual Sasuke for that matter.

Based on the trailer it might be fun for free if it didn't have the NW name tied to it.... Would have gotten it for free but filepup was being a b**** and appcake doesn't have any other copies right now...
Also isn't MarvelousAQL a japanese company? I know they do work in japan, they do all the Precure DVD/Blu-rays and games (at least distribution) lol. hell I remember when they were called "Marvelous Entertainment", then again the change was last year or so lol

Okay looking at the trailer it looks almost exactly like they used the mechanics of the Doritos Crash Course on the Xbox 360.. The only difference is jumping over stuff but the slide jumps, ropes and stuff has the same mechanics..

Even free... I regret trying this... I at least expected a 2d Parkour game just with the NW name, nope... this was just whatever and the time limit was a joke and just started counting up as I passec it and I still cleared, not to mention no punishment for falling into a spike pit aside having to go back (think Wipeout Zone round of Wipeout)...
But the worst part is the "Midoriyama Level", It was just a collect some useless coins and some chests with items you have to find through out the vertical maze of platforms and stuff...
I had thought this would at least be like the Wipeout iOS game but nope... something s***ty with similar controls... the Wipeout iPod game is way more like Sasuke than this disaster, and it's really not, BUT that at least has an obstacle course with an object and relevant time limit...
