What do you prefer?

Personally, I prefer Ninja Warrior. Sure you have to listen to people speak japanese and read the subtitles, but the obstacles are more intense.

Ninja Warrior definately means more to the people of Japan, it is a real test of strength,agility,and endurance. It is a major event only coming once (twice?) a year bringing in real atheletes and isn't really about being funny.

Wipeout is about the laughs for sure.

You also forgot about MXC, which I find funnier than wipeout.

Anyway I like them all.

I like Ninja Warrior. It has more action and it really is a test of all the human abilities in a single show!

Well, Ninja Warrior has laughs too, mostly in the first round where all the scrubs try their luck at the simplest of obstacles that we all know we could do, but still fail.

Yes it has laughs, but I was stating that Wipeout's main catch is about the laughs, it doesn't give that feeling I get when I see somebody using their last amount of strength to try and complete the last obstacle of the third stage.

Ninja Warrior just because Wipeout is complete crap
They have two smart asses saying over-used non humorous garbage every time anything happens
"Oh look, a bird, ITS FLYING OH LOOK HAHA YOU DONT SEE THAT EVERYDAY!" "Sure don't bob, sure dont.." *laugh* I mean wtf..?

I prefer Ninja Warrior, it's more of a test, I don't have to read subtitles or anything, theres this English dude who talks in the background, he's quite funny actually. I just think Wipeout gets a bit boring, once you've seen one episode, most of them are the same. Whereas I can't get board of watching Ninja Warrior.

I just dont really watch either of them, so I chose the english one because it was easier to follow.
