Oh nothings 100% stone but i'm 99,999% sure that is it, although I actually think the time limit will be less than 30 seconds. The ladder is actually higher than the spider climb too! You have to wonder though too - I see what looks like a rope and ladder climb in the final stage at the credits but then 6 months on a game based on the current course is released and that final stage set up I think I see in the pics is what it is on the game, thats one heck of a co incidence! If I am proven right I get all braging rights even though its not that big a deal just nice to know I sussed it first lol. Okay, and if you're wrong you make a public apology on these forums AND the g4 forums. You also lose all credibility from then on out. Still wanna do the bet? You should be happy to, since you're so sure about it being the final stage.

You know what, your on! I said to Obakemono if I was wrong I would apologise to the whole forum but I am sure enough to say it is what I think it is. If I'm right I get the bragging right since I spotted it first and everyone will give me kudos. All in good fun of course . I lose no Cred either way because if I am wrong at least I'd be man enough to apologise and admit it!

Hm, I'm thinking this is the Final Stage
You know, I'm satisfied with it!
It's a lot longer than the spider climb
Plus, climbing ladders are a lot harder to do quickly than you think
Oh, plus I don't think many of the people training have been practicing there ladder climbing skills
I think it's a VERY formidable final stage

Dude... are you kidding me?
The final stage is the same exact heigth as last time, and if the ladder is higher than the old spider climb was... that means less roep climbing, which was the actual hard part.
Climbing up a ladder fast isn't hard, definately easier than the spider climb.
That would be the worst final stage ever I'm sorry...
And whoever said a final stage with only a rope would be impossible...
You should watch some videos of speed climbers!
Do you know what the world record is for rope climbing?
honestly, I don't remember the exact heigth and time, but I remember a comment saying he could climb faster than most people could pull rope through their legs.
It was like insane abnormal speed and he would've gotten up that final stage in literally like 10 seconds.

...and did they do that after 3 grueling stages where their energy is nearly gone? I didn't think so...

Of course not =] I was just making a point, that it wouldn't be impossible.
There are other factors of course, but saying it's impossible is silly.
it's just hard.
if these guys were professional rope climbers they could fly up that thing.
That's why I always wanted Takeda to make it to the final stage, because I know he probably could've done it, have you seen how fast he climbs rope? Way faster than Nagano.

I don't think anyone has said it was impossible, certainly not me. If I did say something like that, it would be in reaction to people saying that a single 22.5m Rope Climb would be too easy compared to the last version of the Final Stage.

I think they should go with a just plain rope climb at that hight, its better than a ladder. Plus the Rope Climb has always been the hard part of the Final Stage. The Spider Climb was easy if you ask me (but I have lots of spider walk experience so that might just be me)

The ladder is designed to sap the last bit of strength out of you fromafter doing the gruelling 3rd stage, by the time you get to the final rope you will be absoluly knackered, add the fact if the time limit is now 20 - 25 seconds now instead of 30, that is a killer.

And whoever said a final stage with only a rope would be impossible... You should watch some videos of speed climbers! Do you know what the world record is for rope climbing? There isn't an official world record for rope climbing at anywhere near 20m. Doing a 22.5m rope climb in 30 seconds would require you to climb at 0.75m/s the entire way. A professional rope climbing champion, going up it at his absolute fastest when he was fresh, ie. hasn't just done all of Sasuke, would BARELY MAKE IT.

Scnio: Okaeb... sorry can't spell his name, he said it'd be nearly impossible.
Okaeb...: Like I said... I forgot his name, but his times showed he could go up that height in like 10 seconds, he was THAT fast.
I think it was 14-15m, don't remember, but it was close to the final stages heigth, and he was able to do it in like 3.7 seconds.
Edit: Don't hold those numbers against me, I could be off. liek it could be as low as 10 m and tooken him 5 seconds... but it's still impressive enough to destroy the final stage if it was a rope climb...
But we don't evne know the final stage is, so we'll have to wait.
I personally loved the 2nd final stage. Thought it was near perfect in difficulty and awesomeness in look and obstacles.

The world record for a 20 foot (~6m) rope climb is 2.8 seconds. The 8m world record is 5.58 seconds. These are the only officially ones that I know of, but times go up exponentially from there. I saw footage of a rope climbing tournament and the best time on a 20m rope was like 26 seconds or something. That pace would only barely complete a 22.5m rope climb in 30 seconds, and it's top class professional pace. I seriously doubt those numbers you've given. 15m in 3.7 seconds is physically impossible. That's half Olympic 100m sprinting pace. Seriously.
Besides, professional rope climbers could do it, but what about 99.9% of Sasuke competitors that aren't professional rope climbers?

Yeah, of course no Sasuke competitors are expert rope climbrs. Look, I'm not trying to argue with you here, I was just making a point that it is possible, still incredibly hard, but possible. Like I said, that's why I always wanted to see Takeda do the final stage, because he's a faster rope climber than Nagano. I think if Takeda would've made it to the final stage in any of hsi runs he could've been the 2nd Ninja Warrior. Sadly that never happend, and may not happen at the rate the course is becoming more difficult.

I hope Takeda makes it to the Final Stage at least once. And I saw how fast of a rope climber he was in Navi so I think he'd ace the final stage if he can make it there.

I was just trying to explain why I think it would be nigh-on impossible. I think Takeda would be great in the final stage as well. He'll have to seriously up his performances if he wants to get there, though. I'm amazed he never made it on the old course.

He got soo close!
Not like Yamada in 6 or anything... but he just is bad at the dismount of the pipe slider.
All the people when they land they like don't even try to stay on.
I realize it all happen so fast, but I wouldn't even assume I was going to land it, I'd have the mind set that I'd barely touch the pad and scramble to hold onto anything I could.
Akiyama and shunsuke have both had nice recoveries on the pipe slider.

The owner of the first video is blt024, good friend of mine and admin of this site...Since he's played the game, you should ask him how it is.

I downloaded the game and played it on an Emulator, I know how it is, Bad. I might give it a second chance some time but probably not. I still play the GBA one although the ROM I have doesn't let me even do the Third Stage, I grab the Propeller Bars then disapear to the top of the screen then fall into the water.

Get a legit game if you really support it.
Lol I wish someone developed this for wii... haha it would actually be kinda fun using the nunchucks and the remote together. (seriously, I've had crazy ideas using the wii-mote... I just sat down on my sofa, looking at the lego course, thinking how the wiimote would work on each obstacle.
