taipion, i see you have uploaded a LOT of videos to youtube, but the information you provide is still too vague, if not deceiving: "NES Ninja Gaiden 2 (USA) in 09:30 by Josh Ballard (aka. FunkDOC). classic console games being played extraordinarily, using an emulator as a tool to overcome human limitations such as skill and reflex. - Takes damage to save time - Aims for fastest time - Abuses programming errors in the game - Genre: Platform - Genre: Action" People are probably bypassing the confusing "classic console games being played extraordinarily, using an emulator as a tool to overcome human limitations such as skill and reflex." and understanding the video as if played normally. I think it would be a good idea to change the description, in consideration to the people vieweing the videos. Change it to something like this: "This movie was made using an emulator with savestates and slowdown to allow for super human precision on the controller input. It's meant to show the game pushed to it's limits instead of gaming skills. For more information on tool-assisted emulator videos, please visit the Tasvideos site at http://tasvideos.org/ NES Ninja Gaiden 2 (USA) in 09:30 by Josh Ballard (aka. FunkDOC). - Takes damage to save time - Aims for fastest time - Abuses programming errors in the game - Genre: Platform - Genre: Action"

http://www.earthboundonline.org/ just found one of the developers advertising it on zbattle. this could be interesting even though it always sound like a lot of work to be done for free.

but you can do an unassisted speedrun of it, and it looks like it can be finished in less than 15 minutes, but i'm finding the last levels quite hard -_-

nope it isn't faster. that's why i chose not to do it this way + i already had 2 uses of the elevator in the movie. but yea, even so, i should have done it like this, but now it's done, and can't remake it.

I see. The GB cartridges and the GBA cartridges have exactly the same shape. Well, almost. The GBA one has a hole in the sides so nintendo could phisically block regular GB games from a GBA games player device if they wanted. Yes, by default only GBA and DS games can be played on the DS. There are various acessories for removable storage media for DS and GBA. Some of them have built-in memory, while others (like the one i own) uses a Compact Flash card, same as some digital cameras. The adaptor itself (to insert the CF on the GBA slot) boots up an interface where you can select various stuff, depending on which one you have. Mine can play special videos recorded on it's own format from the pc, music, read txt files, and run some emulators.

there are emulator for DS too. the screen doesn't have enough resolution though, so NES, master system and pc-engine games look bad. But the GB, GBC and GBA roms work very well. also, there's possibility for DS roms. but i don't support that idea. if you can buy the games, do it.

Bleach DS isn't bad, but my god, the wifi connection lags like all hell, even with a 1.5Mbit connection. I wish it didn't, I could go for having a good match :\
that's news to me, so it depends on the developer? i thought nintendo had made a good conection base programming which developers could use on their games. I'll be carefull with that then.

You can play with other nintendo DS just by being 10 meter away from them and having a game that supports it. And there are games that support distant multiplayer. You can use your wireless internet connection, or buy the nintendo USB wi-fi conector which takes use of your internet connection on your pc. This way you can play over the internet with other people using the same thing (there are millions of people already playing this way, says nintendo). Most games accept the simple connection of putting 2 DS close to each other, but only some games support wi-fi connection. afaik, these games do have this support: - mario kart - metroid prime hunters - animal crossing

The red coins are way too scattered around the level. I'm sure the route is very solid, just some moves could have been better planned.

I like my DS, but games are expensive to me. So i've played only a few. But really liked what i saw: - Daigaso Band Brothers: best music game i've played - New Super Mario Bros (it has this "mario party" mode which is perfect for playing with your friends) - Phoenix Wright Ace Attourney: this is what i'm playing right now, and boy i'm hooked up to it :) of course it won't have replay value, that's what game trading exists for. - Super Mario Kart DS: best mario kart i've ever played, but i haven't played anything on GC, so bare with that. - Ridge Racer, Need for Speed U2: skip these. terrible. - Metroid Prime Hunters: my friend says the multiplayer is awesome but he has never held a gun in counter strike, so he doesn't see it it has nothing inovative. It may be the best handheld FPS, but i prefer those on the pc screen. - Jump Super Stars, Dragon Ball Z Supersonic Warriors: fighting games on a portable system..... not my style, they are VERY well made and all, but i also prefer this kind of game on the big screen. - nintendogs: skip this and get a dog if you can. if you can't, get this. if you don't want either, ok :P - things i'd love to play but haven't had oportunity yet: brain games, eletroplancton. As far as i know, games are region free (i've played japanese as well as US games on it). The multiplayer is incredibly fast. I played with a friend using my local 256k DSL, we connected 2 DS at the same time, and the gameplay was perfect, it really looked like we weren't playing on the internet. I was kinda shocked... It's a free service. He just brought his USB wi-fi connector, installer a program from his pen drive and then we started playing metroid and mario kart.

that probably wouldn't work because the star isn't centered in the wall. it's clearly closer to the rotating bridge. what you're trying to do here is make mario grab the ledge of the seam. his hand will touch the star on that frame.

That's just great!
It's funny that they argument that they do not allow runs made with an emulator for legal reasons
IANAL, but buying & dumping the rom should be legal, and won't add more costs than video capturing equipment. It also leads to higher video quality. Checking for the legality of the used roms isn't their job, they don't check the used games for pirated copys now, do they? Of course, the real reasons are obvious and understandable - makes me wonder why he argumented this way.
actually, pirated copies are easily distinguisheable from original ones at first glance...

you can't enter the cottage in the cool cool mountain level by going through the bottom because that's a load point. it's just another room of death. actually, i can do that star in Bob-omb battlefield in a very interesting way by climbing the mountain at full speed and launching to the star box doing a z-flip in the air and getting the star without touching the island at all (he lands on the island after grabbing the star)

About the video showing how TAS is done, that's really unpracticle. I've recorded a video of myself tasing and it's plain long, boring and doesn't show much. It's 30 minutes of the same game scene. That idea just wouldn't work.

Qlex, instead of finding my post offensive at you, try to comment on what i said. Are they willing to change things on their side instead of trying to tell us what to do?

It's just that this has been talked about over and over. The videos already have information. Only some speedruns videos don't. Also, saying that TASes are a problem wasn't nice in the first place, was it... If it's a problem for speedrunners they can find their own solutions on their own environment. Not here.

Qlex: i have a better proposition: why don't you put at the beggining of your videos an explanation that it was made without tools and using a trained, skillful player? that way you'll be hapy to also add a seal of quality to the video that proves it was checked and is legitimate. don't bother us, we already provide enough information on the videos and everywhere, it's not our fault if people don't like to read. This way, both types of videos would be clearly differentiated. I'm sure "TAS" is not the only problem speedrunners run into. What about cheated runs, edited roms and video edits? the difference is that all of those try to pass as legitimate speedruns. Our videos don't. If you want the legitimate speedruns to stand out, i really think the best solution is to add info on speedrun videos. Not on all other videos.
