I don’t like to write much, but I had a lot of fun with this run. Sometimes I thought it wouldn’t be completed, because some things are very hard to do (eg, Tall Tall Mountain, Dire Dire Docks, etc), but finally it is done. I hope you enjoy this run.

Are there any chances of this becoming a 100% run instead of just a 120 Star Run? As in, getting the triple jump from Yoshi. Or would that be too superficial?

Hey Why isn't there an updated 120 stars-tas? I mean, the any% tases of this game have made so many bug discoveries and time-saving moves during the last 5 years since this was published. I think the 120 stars movie should be improvable by at least 10 seconds. Though I'm not sure, that's why it should be nice if someone would investigate if this could be improved.

10 seconds, heh. The problem with running this game is that there's a huge number of people finding improvements all the time, and the 120-star TAS wants to have the best strategies for every star. Unfortunately many stars are somewhat random (e.g. getting coin drops from boxes) and thus the game isn't always hex-friendly. All that means that the people working on the 120-star TAS have to re-do a lot of stars over and over again when improvements in early stars are found.
