| Donkey Kong's been kidnapped and old Cranky Kong insists that Diddy collect a bunch of coins that say "DK" on them. These goals are sufficiently compatible that Diddy and Dixie decide to get a little bit sidetracked on their rescue plan. This run abuses a lot of bugs with regard to motion and collision detection. Read the authors' submission to learn more. This run improves the previous one by more than 5 minutes thanks to new tricks, new glitches, and greater precision. | ||

Gunstar Super Heroes is here to show the Genesis version that while the game itself is inferior to the original, you can go much faster and yell and shout more than should be possible in a game!
Warning!
Those who experience motion sickness easily might not want to watch too closely the autoshooter segments, you have been warned.

This movie has been obsoleted!Click here to see the new movie.This is a really, really fast TAS through Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance played with Maxim who is only available after the game is beaten once. Most of the game is glitched through by being stuck in different walls, so it's hard to explain what happened in this; see it for yourself. This is a 124 frame improvement over comicalflop's previous movie. Note: This movie starts where the main quest movie left off. We do not usually accept movies beginning from a save.

| Mischief Makers (1997) is one of the rare 2D sidescrollers released for Nintendo 64. The player controls Marina, the robotic maid of a lecherous and absent-minded professor Theo, who has a habit of being kidnapped constantly. The ones who abduct him every now and then are Clancers from the evil Empire. (And make sure to watch out for the plot twist at the end!) Marina is quite a versatile cyborg. She can boost continuously in the air, ride vehicles, slide and jump like a maniac, and most importantly, shake. Make no mistake, you'll be seeing Comicalflop shake this thing, and even that thing quite a lot in this fast-paced run. The game is broken down into 52 short areas, each of them having a separate timer. Because of this, the author aims to optimize the movie for shortest in-game time. Each stage is given a rank based on how fast the stage was completed; this run gets all S Ranks. The game has some emulation errors, such as unnatural amounts of lag in some stages, and graphical glitches. See the author's comments for more details. | ||

Most of the game is glitched through by being stuck in different walls, so it's hard to explain what happened in this, see it for yourself. This is comicalflop's contribution of 35 frames over the previous movie by pirate_sephiroth, which shows how close it is to being optimal. Note: This movie starts where the main quest movie left off.

| Castlevania, again, only this time played with Maxim and without glitching through walls and completing the game intended, unlike the glitch-warped run. What constitutes as intended in this run is debatable, since Maxim zooms through the castle faster than Sonic on espresso, and sends shurikens ripping through bosses before they realize they can attack you.
