Award - SNES TAS of 2011
Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island is a vibrant, colorful and fun game that stars the popular Yoshi. From a technical standpoint, the game is very exceptional on the SNES due to its use of the SuperFX chip. The chip allows for many cool special effects that are otherwise impossible on the SNES.

This run is an improvement of over 5 minutes to the previous speedrun of this game. For more details, we recommend reading the author's comments; there's a lot more to this movie than meets the eye, even though the movie is very colourful, action-packed, and full of entertaining tricks and maneuvers. In other words, this game is the very essence we tool-assisted speedrun movie makers enjoy. :)

If you want even more Yoshi craziness, be sure to check out the warped completion and 100% run .

Please read the welcome page if you haven't already done so. It explains the rules and methods that apply to all of these movies, particularly the use of savestates and frame advance. Also refer to our Glossary to understand terms we use, such as TAS or other unfamiliar terms.
