| This hack of Super Mario Bros. is the sequel to Air, created by the same author, U1. The vast majority of this hack is exactly the same as its predecessor, but with two major changes: all invisible coin blocks are marked and infinite jumps are no more, which results in a few changes in level design accommodated to it. Air 2 is a trial-and-error platform puzzle game. Savestates are practically required to beat the game. Abuse of Super Mario Bros. glitches is required by design. This run does not aim for fastest completion. | ||

| Extra Mario Bros is a hack of the original Super Mario Bros. It is noteworthy for being a complete "Metroidvania" game built around the original SMB engine, with very few changes to the engine itself. The five areas in the game are all interconnected (via pipes, naturally), and permanent upgrades have been added to make a more Metroid-ish feel. (Did I mention the music from Super Metroid? Because there's music from Super Metroid.) However, despite his newfound ability to return to levels he's visited before and acquire upgrades that don't go away when he dies, Mario still cannot move to the left. This movie collects all of the keys and fights the true final boss, but only collects two of the upgrades. | ||

| In this Legend of Zelda hack, Link must save Hyrule (again), reclaiming the Triforce of Power from Thunderbird. Baxter does it masterfully, exploiting glitches from the original game to get the job done quickly.
This movie completes both quests.
If you'd like to see a movie of the original unhacked Legend of Zelda, we have that too, as well as a movie of the second quest. | ||

| The games Mega Man 3, 4, 5 and 6 are all the same. Eight robot masters are defeated and Mega Man steals their weapons. After some kind of distraction, Mega Man attacks Wily's fortress and it typically gets blown up. If you don't believe that's true, we offer this movie. While driving home the point in honour of our other multi-game movie, Baxter and AngerFist prove that Capcom really has been making the same game over and over again by playing Mega Man 3, 4, 5 and 6 using the same input. No attempt is made to synchronize the endings of these games. Mega Man 6 finishes first and Mega Man 4 finishes last. The CPU demands for playback of this movie are unusually high. Systems under 1.2 GHz may struggle to play this video. The audio has been processed by adelikat for virtual surround sound. We recommend sitting back as far as possible and looking (staring?) at the center of the screen when watching the AVI. If you like this movie, you may like to check out the movie in which two games are played simultaneously with one controller. | ||

| Zanac is one of those space shooter games in which you are trying to save the earth. Due to the highly repetitive nature of this game, the hidden 9th input button (the console's Reset button) is used to warp to the last level. This results in an unsually long grey screen at the start of the movie. Starting on the final level with 3 lives and only the initial pea-shooter for a weapon normally makes the game near impossible to win. The author takes advantage of frame perfect timing to upgrade rapid fire to the maximum in a single level; this allows for an improvement of 3 seconds during the boss fight. | ||

| Chrono Trigger is a long RPG that typically takes hours to days to complete. We already have one tool-assisted speedrun of this game. However, this game also has a NewGame+ mode, where all the equipment and characters' stats are preserved from the previous completions, and player is allowed to fight the last boss, Lavos, almost immediately since the beginning. This movie happens to start from a save file with optimized equipment and character stats, created specifically for NewGame+. (We do not generally accept movies starting from predefined saves. Read the rules to see our reasons.) This new version of a NewGame+ TAS by inichi is 2 minutes and 24 seconds faster than his previous attempt due to the discovery of a certain data-manipulating glitch that allows dealing maximum amount of damage every critical hit. It is only possible to do on the Japanese version of the game, which is the reason for a version change. See the author's comments for a detailed explanation. The killing blow is delivered in just under five minutes of gameplay, but additional time has to be spent to go through the Dream Team scene in order to make the game actually end. | ||

| One person's silly idea is another person's inspiration. This movie is essentially constructed by taking one controller and wiring it into two SNES emulators at once. The same input is used to play both games to completion. In other words, the player plays two games simultaneously with one controller. Note: There is a visual anomaly during the battle with Serges in X 2. This is an emulator bug relating to the Cx4 chip used in the Mega Man X 2 cartridge. If you like this movie, be sure to check out the movie that even beats four games with one controller! | ||

| This hack of Super Mario World contains a Star World which contains themed levels that connect to various locations on the map. Like the original Super Mario World, these levels can be used as a makeshift warp zone. This movie demonstrates this path - navigating the Star World to charge straight to Bowser, leaving much of the game untouched. This movie is a whopping 24 second improvement to the previous movie. Full list of changes can be read in the authors' comments. The homepage for Super Demo World, including the patch to be used on a Super Mario World ROM, and the program used to make the hack, is available online. | ||

realm that spans well beyond his original adventure.
