4570 frames (84,69 seconds) faster than ShinyDoofy's run.

This TAS includes several new improvements, including:

- Jump Technique.

- Ledge Glitch.

- Better optimization in each stage and bosses.

- A new way to end input earlier than published run.

- Takes damage to save time in Stage 4 and Stage 7.

The first damage saves a little time, while the other damage saves more time.

3232 frames ahead.

Lots of improvements helped and several mistakes/flaws fixed to improve this run.

This TAS is finally completed.

1882 frames (32.5 seconds) faster than Snes9x's WIP 2 of this game.

This glitch, i discovered 5 years ago.

With this glitch, it's possible so save approximately 40 frames.

284 frames ahead of my previous WIP and 1350 frames ahead of my Snes9x Old WIP.

Up to the Re-Fight Boss of the Snow Stage in the Boss Rush of the Last Stage.

396 frames ahead of the published run.

96 frames is saved totally ahead of my last WIP.

Snow Stage, Jungle Stage and 1/3 of Swamp Stage Finished!

Two Notes:

- In one path of Snow Stage, for unknown reason, it's only possible to get the key going on closed door and then kill the enemy who has the Key.

- In Jungle Stage, I delivered the last hit a few frames later on pterodactyl Boss to save 24 frames.

No one did a speedrun of the game. So, that's why i started the first speedrun of Joe & Mac 2.

I discovered a Reset Trick in the game:

Reset Trick

At the Frame 18, if you press Soft Reset, it's possible to skip the Data East and the Licensed by Nintendo Logos. It saves 854 frames!

I takes unnecessary damage in some parts of first stage just for fun (such as kill 3 enemies with 1 attack and drop meat when Joe is about to eat).
