Bout time this was unlocked! Still on challenge!? Wow, konami is crazy if they think that someone can actually pass this without dying of a heart attack first. My friend Dann tried this at the leaked NJ location test and he failed it at HADES. This course is BRUTAL, but still awesome. Plus this probably the only way were gonna be able to play Pluto and Pluto Relinquishes challenge steps, until their both fully unlocked. Good luck to everyone who playes this one. It's gonna be one hell of a ride.

Interesting. The japanese who updated the information for the SN2 machine via e-AMUSEMENT, didn't know how to spell "Japanese". ROFL~

That's great!
It was just an error in the SN2 webpage.
@ddr_ray: Thanks for the update!

According to current ranking on the ranking page, only one person has managed to get past HADES.
Most have failed to get to the second song.
That, and the image for the course banner is broken

That course scares me. I can't even pass it on a keyboard.

lol @ the rankings.
I wonder how long Konami thinks it will take someone to pass it... Maybe they didn't realize it's extreme difficulty.

I think it's Konami's way of throwing the gauntlet down to JBoy, saying "pass this". I don't think he can be pried away from PIU NX2, but that's the sort of course almost custom-made for somebody like him.

513 passing NGO Challenge x1 full combo
NGO Challenge Encore Extra Stage?

"I'm honestly pissed off." |
Sheesh, that's nuts. So, assuming PRO is FC'able, it is possible, if only remotely, and only for those with more stamina than I can imagine.
Actually, Pluto will also present a problem, as there is one part where you hold a freeze on down, and hit 5 8ths on up and left (sm diagram below). How do you FC that without getting an NG? IIRC, it's running at 220 in that section, so double stepping those 8ths is not easy (though for a god like him, it might be, certainly no harder than the step jumps on NGOO).
0200
0010
1000
0010
1000
0010
0300
I may be misremembering, as it's been a while since I played that chart, but that's what I remember. It's somewhat towards the end, after the triple jumps at 200.

wait, how is he playing NGO Challenge on Encore? I thought on the extra stages you can't play challenge mode.

Heh, odd, I thought you can't pick CHALLENGE difficulties if the song is a red song, which NGO is at FINAL STAGE and after.

Maybe this will help a bit =) :
On Final Stage:
Unreal
NGO
TRIP MACHINE PhoeniX
PARANOiA ~HADES~
Pluto
Pluto Relinquish
On Extra Stage:
Unreal
NGO
TRIP MACHINE PhoeniX
PARANOiA ~HADES~
Pluto
Pluto Relinquish
On Encore Extra Stage:
Unreal
NGO
TRIP MACHINE PhoeniX
PARANOiA ~HADES~
Pluto
Pluto Relinquish
Therefore, Challenge is allowed for NGO =)

I think that getting 1 NG is the better end of the deal rather than getting 5 or so misses and failing (Well, less if they make an attempt to step). That's what i guess most people will try and do.

Yeah, I figured that would be the better deal. I just mess up on it every (both) time, because you crossover into it, so I end up with the misses as the gears in my brain grind and try to figure it out.

Much appreciated with turns and holds simutaneously (but not always).

I've seen something like it on FELMO, during the 200 BPM middle part. As one of your feet will be stuck to the freeze, it needs to be treated as a 16th run, with the 8ths being the only ones you actually hit.

Really, is possible get full combo and all OKs at x1speed in Pluto Challenge
In the freeze section at 200 bpm, just before the 2nd 50 bpm area, hold right foot in the freeze
and drag quickly the left foot. I think this quickly move isn't impossible (especially if you played In The Groove, or Pump It Up is a best example)
