Probably most people have heard of how brutal the whole Ghouls 'n' Ghosts 'n' Goblins series is.

Maybe you don't have that rerecording version.
Where do we get the rerecording version, then? Is it a patch, or part of a new official release? I have trouble keeping track of all these patches floating around. Thank goodness for the patched Famtasia generator page.

Huh, I almost remember that mascot, but not quite. I'll have to check that out.

What about the people who recorded the real games with their VCRs?

That's an even better name! I'm going to call him that from now on.

I heard they were originally going to call him "Rainbowman" because he changes colors.

Well, sometimes all the skipping around caused by changing speeds and rerecording can trigger an error that causes a frame to be lost or gained somewhere. That's all I can figure out.

That's what I did for Eggerland, but I imagine it was a little trickier than that for this game...

I tried the GameBoy Adventures of Lolo, but I found it kinda slow and annoying, so I dunno... I think you guys got all the other ones I know.

I've started hex-editing my movie files right at the beginning to place the first pressing of the Start button (or A, or a disk switch, or whatever) at the very first frame in which it can be pressed. You see, with auto-fire, Start is pressed every other frame, so there's a chance it could be one frame later than necessary. Agh. The big thing to remember about editing the files is that you'll want to make all-new save states during playback afterwards, because if you load a save state from the old movie within the altered movie, the state probably won't correspond to the same point in the movie anymore. That's BAD.

I also discovered that you do not need to bounce the Noise Crush off of walls to charge it and I've already abused that quite a bit.
So what do you do instead???

Yeah, I suppose you'd have to use the energy tank in the ceiling near the beginning after one of the restarts.

Well, I'd be fine with just regular GameBoy having rerecording first. I mean, it's basically a mini NES. I don't know if link cables would confuse it all up, though.

Wait, so his throws weren't based on Backdrop/Suplex?

Yes, in fact, I think the game lets you skip the entire third leg!

So what does a "100% run" entail here, anyway? I know that in the first two Metroids, you can only have one beam at a time; each beam you obtain replaces the one you had before. You can't have both the Ice Beam and the Wave Beam at the end of the game. So what counts for 100%? Do you just need to grab one of the beams, since you'll always end up with only one anyway? Or do you need to have gotten both the Wave Beam and the Ice Beam within the same game? I also recall that the first Metroid has two places where you can get the Ice Beam. Do you need to visit both? (I forget whether the beam items regenerate or not. That could factor into it too.) Maybe you could grab one of the Ice Beams, grab the Wave Beam later on, then grab the other Ice Beam to finish the game off. Someone just needs to set down some sensible rules for this so we know what to do.

How about record times for single-player mode?

Sheesh, I'd forgotten how anal those GameFAQsers get when they argue.

Whatever. Anyway, the question here is whether the Playstation versions changed the game engines in any remarkable ways. I don't even have a Playstation, so I don't know.
