The player starts each hole by aiming his ball and shooting it toward the green. He then runs toward the ball, in traditional sidescroller fashion, fighting various enemies encountered along the way. These enemies include other ninjas, gophers, birds, giant mutant frogs, sharks and more.

The enemies faced depends on the environment the ninja golfer is currently in. Sharks are encountered in water hazards and snakes in the sand traps. Ninjas are encountered in all the environments, including underwater.

In this run, adelikat sports, fights, and runs his way through multiple ninjas, sharks, and even dragons to complete possibly the strangest nine holes of golf.

This run by mamuuuut plays the toughest course (Australia) and aims to get the lowest (best) final score while showing off unusual or unexpected paths.

£e Nécroyeur defeats the six opponents in record time.

This is the first Arcade publication using MAME-RR, and is published right on the 20th anniversary of the original MAME.

In this run, error1 earns those special moves and uses them to beat down his opponents as fast as possible. He also takes advantage of an interesting quirk in the opponents' AI, ensuring that they do not get up after the first knockdown. For more details, see the author's comments.

Gameplay is similar to the original console game. The levels have been adapted from the console version for the two dimensional isometric perspective; one is even taken from the original Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.

In this run, TaylorTotFTW improves upon the of previous run by Noodlez by 2:01.18, using a completely different route and much more optimized movement.

Aqfaq defies the law of physics by doing tricks that are impossible to perform in real life. If you are looking for crazy motocross action, then look no further — you have it right here!

Half pipe mode is viewed from a side perspective, kind of like the classic Skate or Die game. You perform tricks to achieve a high score. Race mode is viewed from a top-down perspective, where you goal is to perform tricks and get to the end quickly.

Thanks to a serve glitch and some precise rallying, MUGG manages to reach a time of under 5 minutes.

In this run, Fog unlocks every level and every skater as fast as possible.

In this run, Fog skates, grinds, and flies through the air across multiple levels to complete the game as fast as possible.

In this run, Fog skates, grinds, and flies through the air across all story mode levels to complete all goals in the game as well as getting gold medals in all of the competitions as fast as possible.

We also have an "any%" run of the game if you just want to see the game completed as fast as possible.

Underground is built upon the skateboarding formula of previous Tony Hawk's games: the player explores levels and completes goals while performing tricks. The game features a new focus on customization; the player, instead of selecting a professional skater, creates a custom character.

Underground adds the ability for players to dismount their boards and explore on foot. The plot follows the player character and his or her friend Eric Sparrow as the two become well-known professionals and grow apart.

In this run, The Packle breaks all sense of reality with physics-defying jumps, incredible grinding speed, and radical airs.

In this run, Fog skates, grinds, and flies through the air to complete this game as fast as possible on the easiest difficulty using multiple glitches along the way. For more information on the tricks and glitches used in this run, check out the submission text.

In this run, The Packle plays through the Classic game mode, which brings back older THPS styled objectives into the current set of levels (including remade levels of older THPS games), using the easiest difficulty.

In this playaround, the author, Toothache, achieves the best score or time possible in each event.

While the segments of input are very short, a great deal of work is needed to figure out exactly what the best shots are in order to complete the holes in the fastest possible time.

If you enjoyed watching this, also check out another mini-golf run with even zanier courses.

Watch as courses covering everything from the classic windmill to a pinball table to a pastiche of Breakout are made to look absolutely trivial by masterful precision in hitting the ball.

This game is similar to Marble Madness, except that instead of controlling the ball directly, various aspects of the course are controlled instead.

In this movie, Aqfaq optimizes the angle and power of his shots to beat each of the game's nine holes as fast as possible. You might also enjoy reading his humorous submission text.

Nahoc improves his previous run by 1.55 seconds, thanks to better strategies in Skate Park Chicago and Burnside Portland.

If you want to see more skating action, watch his movie of the sequel and emu's run of the third game in the series.

If you want to see more skating action, be sure to check the runs of the first two games in the series.

In this run, X2poet plays through all seven events, using tool-assisted precision and some glitches to finish the game in just under 17 and a half minutes.

In this run, Luke demonstrates superhuman play in each of the sports. For more information, see the author's comments.

In this run, GuanoBowl ends all the races early by knocking his opponent out. Rockets are purchased to make the hammer throw go farther and gum is used to help him hold his breath underwater. This run gets the extended ending by winning as Crash's school.

Explosion Pills uses these techniques along with TAS precision to finish all slopes and events in less than 18 minutes.

The player can choose between four different golfers, of which each character has his or her own advantages and disadvantages. Lee Trevino is playable as a character named Super Mex (an actual nickname of his); other characters include Pretty Amy, Miracle Chosuke and Big Jumbo. Despite having the worst control, Big Jumbo is used here for his specialty with ranged hits.

In this run, Acmlm uses precise hits and luck manipulation to beat all 18 holes as fast as possible, which results in a very low final score as well.

With some heavy support from a bot and the help of an unusual glitch on two tables, the game is completed in record time.

The friction of the pool table can be adjusted; in this run it is left alone. See also the frictionless run. Reading the submission text is recommended.

The emulator movie requires FCEU 0.98.15 or an earlier version of FCEU. On later versions of FCEU, the last table desyncs.

With some heavy support from a bot (and massive loss of sanity), the author manages the nigh-impossible feat of making it all the way to the end of all 60 tables even in the face of this overwhelming opposition.

Reading the submission notes is highly advisable to explain some of the oddities such as the occasional pocketing of the cue ball. (In short: The cue ball is deliberately pocketed in order to avoid getting a perfect score on every level because the point counter would take unbearably long to tick all the points, up to a half minute per level.)

For more heavy optimization of pool tables, see also the run of this game with the default friction level.

No clock stopping glitch in this run, though we have a submission that does exploit this glitch.

This run by TaoTao doesn't putter along. It blazes through every hole in a very "mini" amount of time at just under 7 minutes.

This playaround by adelikat shows off ridiculous plays, bizarre glitches, and other wild antics.

You can see this played on a real NES by clicking here.

In this movie the author constantly tortures helpless CPU players with "power shots", sending them to fly around the world (actually, just the screen) and letting them just barely get back on their feet.

In addition, the author exploits a number of bizarre bugs, such as CPU players tackling their own teammate, and a very unorthodox final play.

True tecmobowlers will enjoy the team choice and final score.

T&C Surf Designs features both skateboarding and surfing games. The skating section (called Street Skate Session) is a side scrolling action game where you need to navigate through an obstacle course within the given time limit. In the surfing section (called Big Wave Encounter) you need to surf a giant wave all the way to the beach.

This movie improves the previous one by 174 frames thanks to pressing an B button and better luck manipulation.

In this movie, Aqfaq uses well-planned strategy and a fair amount of luck manipulation to defeat each monster in the fewest rounds possible. For more information, check out his detailed submission text.

This run by londonb415 utilizes extensive password glitches to warp to the credits in under a minute.

In this superplay, watch in awe as a team is forced to score on its own goal ("OH NO! OWN GOAL!?"), the scoreboard mysteriously records extra goals that were never scored (and even rolls backwards at one point), and the very laws of physics themselves seem to get completely broken.

This run aims for best score, then fastest time. A lot of hole-in-ones are scored, even at great time expense.

Note that there is a second series of courses which are similar to the original set. These are played as well for sport, before attacking the final boss and winning.

This run is 1:52.25 minute faster than snc's previous TAS. There's no improvement in the number of hole-in-ones, but his secondary goal is done significantly faster!

This run clears all 8 lessons and the 2 helicopter missions without ever piloting the light plane.

In this playaround, laranja chooses exhibition mode and picks the worst boxer to battle against Bowe. Normally, it would be nearly impossible for him to win. Using tool-assisted precision, not only does he beat Bowe, but he does it while landing every hit and taking no damage. In the process, he toys around with the champion until the match is over.

The record times are:

            Gabby Jay  6.26           Bear Hugger 12.92

Starting with just $1000, the author reaches 10 million dollars in under one and a half minutes, proving once again that games defy reality.

This movie is 47.46 seconds faster than its predecessor by the same author. In particular, improvements come from skipping an intro scene, and an improved method of going from $1000 to $100000.

As with every other bowling game in existence, you roll a ball down an alley in an attempt to knock down 10 pins. To do this in this game, you have to try and match up two gauges: Spin and Power. The Spin gauge determines how far left or right the ball will go, and the Power gauge determines how hard your character throws the ball.

As with the other Punch-Out!! runs on this site, this run by McHazard aims for in-game time first, then real time. The clock times achieved are listed below:

   Warm-up: 40.52
   Training: 41.83
   Sparring: 39.38

Originally submitting this as an April Fool's joke, Fog daringly went where few people had gone before by playing through this awful game. He abuses the game's poor physics whenever possible to finish every hole in the four mini-golf courses as fast as possible.
