I have to say, that hack seems terrible to me. But, that's just me. If you want to run it, go right ahead. I feel that the need to collect those chaos emeralds detracts from the game's overall experience. As does the emerald collection sound strewn all over.

Wow. This is the first time I have seen a TAS start from zero and go on it's way to a full submission. It's great. Keep up the awesome work. I used to play the older version of this game and I was trying to figure out why the levels were in such an odd order.

What about having an analog stick at a non-neutral status when the console is turned on? Would that allow for games to be given values higher then expected?

That was done by using a "Pass the pad" style of play. Since both sides take turns, it makes sense that you can play 2 or 3 or even 4 players with one GBA since it gets passed around. It's two players, but one system.

What about Puggsy? It ends on the first possible frame (as per the rules), still takes damage but wins. I would say, the category "Takes damage to save time" works for these situations.

For some reason, attempting to load The Incredible Crash Dummies for NES causes an error.

I am the Meh vote. Why? Yes, it's fast, but I was not entertained that much. It was creative and did break the game to a degree but it wasn't that much fun to watch. Technical side is high for me. The corner boosting trickery is quite impressive.
