SNES Zelda completed in a very quick manner by traveling in an alternate dimension through the walls. The basis of the trick is to enter a corridor or staircase by pressing up+down or left+right. Note that you need the patched version of Snes9x to play the movie file.

Now 29 seconds faster because of a new path and a wobbling trick that gives extra movement speed.

Note: The AVI of this movie was encoded using the H264 codec, which allows for much superior quality/size ratio compared to divx/xvid.
If you have codec problems, read the Codec Problems page for help.
