Ooh, I love Arkanoid clones like these. Nearly infinite potential for juggling in a TAS.

If you use adblock or any variant thereof you're denying advertising revenue to the very sites you want to stay up (as proven by the fact that you visit them regularly), so, uh,

What Heisanevilgenius said, plus can the luck manipulation at the start be done any quicker?

I think the warp to the final screen is an easter egg, not a bug. You're not supposed to be able to get into the room though.
The warp to the final screen is intentional (it's a teaser), getting in the wall is the bug.

Dropbox seems to be the de facto 'best' choice for putting up files.

Why is that the final fantasy games continue to use such primitive RNGs? As recent as FF8 it was just a sequence of 256 bytes. ?_?

I found it entertaining since I NEVER got The End to appear when I played. :D

Since when did 'not enough frames were saved' become a reason to reject?

Wow, you tore the game apart! I especially love the way Tony Hawk could climb up walls and land on the tops of them. Yes!

Anyway, i noticed you use the "skip character" button a lot in battle, is this to prevent the enemy from attacking?
RNG manipulation. It has to check if you get limit break access this time or not, so one RNG advancement

I don't know exactly why, but I somehow don't like the idea of a TAS of this game that abuses bugs (at least memory corruption bugs), as those bugs may well be fixed in a future release. I like ais523's principle of not abusing the bug in the future run.
Nethack hasn't been updated for years and years and years. It's safe to say any bugs in it are going to stay with it, except in fan made patches/mods. Besides, an update is going to do more than just fix glitches - you'll have to remake the run regardless.

If you got four NESes and four NESbots, could this be played back on real hardware? :D

If he prolonged SMB1, the run would finish later since he'd have to structure more of his input around doing more SMB1 too. So it's not happening.

It's interesting how some runs get VERY far before desyncing (like Mega Man 6 and Punch Out) while others desync immediately. Obviously something very very subtle is off.

I'm not fond of that screenshot, since it's not good at showing off the game.

Well done! Wonderful job! I thought the record of 11:00.65 on nicovideo was fast enough, but this proved me wrong. I love it, voting YES! Edit: Still, I'm waiting for a downloadable encode. Or, if anyone would like to teach me to use lua to show key-input, I'd like to make an encode myself.
Yeah, I think a controller in the center is a must for this kind of movie.

I suppose the game has been programmed so that even though everything is randomly generated, it's not possible to get the Amulet of Yendor on the first level?
It's highly random, but not to that extent.
The amulet is possessed by the high priest of Moloch at the bottom of Gehennom. To reach it, however, the player needs several other items, known as the invocation artifacts. They are the Book of the Dead, Candelabrum of Invocation and the Bell of Opening.
It makes me wonder - can any roguelikes be won on the first turn? How about in the first 100 turns? (Let's say not counting mystery dungeon-alikes.)
