Well, the cutscenesTALKING★TIMEs were interesting, and the graphics pretty good for NES, with some unique choices, like portraits that run away from cutscenes. The music was also above-average.
This was my impression too. This game has some good ideas and good graphics. They could have made it a little longer though.
I liked the early boss hit trick and the boss skips, yes vote!

The strangeness and silliness of this game kept the run consistently entertaining for me. I also liked your hockey antics. I suggest a screenshot of Pingu in the corner with the word "WON" partially off the screen.
Also, good luck with your All Platforms Challenge!

You're welcome. :) I don't see any more improvement, it looks perfect!
You can now ask for a judge to replace the submission with the new file. I think it has to be you (the author) who asks.

I can see it. You did well on using the zip glitch. However, I made the first floor 39 frames faster by jumping one less time.
Here is the file:

I will let you find the other errors. The second floor can be faster; remember to use the zip glitch there.
(Note to viewers: The zip glitch only zips you to the right, even if you approach it moving left. This is why it is only used on about half of the floors.)

Already looks more optimized than the DS run, good work.
When you redo it, try to kill or avoid those dragonflies at the end. If you can jump onto the ledge instead of climbing, they might not reach you in time to damage you.

I keep meaning to see this movie...
I'd be interested in seeing your run. I remember that DS version WIP and thought it looked pretty cool, so I'm sure the Wii one would too.

AT LONG LAST COMPUTER TASING IS FINALLY POSSIBLE!!
Technically, we've had it for over 5 years with DOS and JPC-rr, but this is still an exciting expansion for the library of TASable games. We can start up an Apple II wishlist thread now!
This run is really cool in concept, even if the end result isn't very entertaining. I will be watching it again sometime though, because I loved the Windows remake of this game as a child.

This sounds pretty interesting. Awaiting Spikestuff's temp encode.
Sounds interesting indeed - the music is awesome, and is this game's most redeeming quality, IMO.
Having just watched the encode, I have to agree that it's really good. The graphics are too; this seems like one of those games that almost looks like an SNES game rather than NES.

Did you mean an video file? I don't think BizHawk movies can be converted into other emulators' file formats. Here's a video file:

The movie length is 3:46.51 according to BizHawk.

Ohh, I hadn't noticed there was a meter that controlled the boost. I'd say you did a good job utilizing what you could of the boost when the game let you. I really liked all the close calls too, and Dash even commented on them in-game!

It looks like there was quite a bit of interest in this game, though Dolphin was too primitive at the time for a TAS to be made. There are also a few memory addresses in that thread if you need some.
Good luck on your run!

All right! mGBA is here!
Kurabupengin: If you mean the one the site recognizes, it's "AppleII" according to the GamenamesEditor:
So a submission title would look something like "#4747: dekutony's AppleII Wishbringer in 5:10:10".
