A very impressive SNES Super Mario World movie.
This is just one second faster than the previous version by Volkov, but it also gets a little better final score.

The classic SNES game is renewed with a 100% completion run by VIPer7.
This *96 run gets all exits ({levels marked with red dots and some ghost houses} have two exits), visits all Switch Palaces, plays all Special secret levels and defeats Bowser.
It also gets 99 extra lives and ends up with 99 stars and 99 coins.
This movie defeats Bowser at 1:22:42, but the input continues to 1:23:38. (Hint: pay attention to the credits).
We recommend reading the author's novel notes about this movie.

SNES Super Mario World movie done faster than anyone imagined.
This movie is about 15 seconds faster than the previous version by Alexis Neuhaus, due to many small and some bigger things that sum up to a notable amount of time.

Acknowledged as one of the best Mario games of all time, Super Mario World is a must see for fans of classic games. This run by Fabian completes the game fully (all 96 exits) and makes use of almost every known glitch to make it as fast and exciting as possible.

This movie has a partial Atlas Map encode of the first level, which shows the standard encode overlaid on a zoomed out map.

Super Mario World is a game which needs no introduction.
This movie beats the previous SMW movie by a mere 3 seconds. Strategically, this is very similar to the previous movie, but a new technique which involves keeping flight status through doors and pipes saved the majority of the time. This game is now extremely tightly optimized to minimize lag between levels.
This movie is a joint venture between Fabian and JXQ, but small and big optimizations were contributed by several people: skamastaG, thegreginator, mrz, jimsfriend, Flagitious and Arne_the_great.

Mario's doctor heard about the "Magic Mushrooms" which make Mario grow to twice his normal size and let him break bricks. Fearing for Mario's health, he orders Mario to avoid those nasty powerups.
This run aims to complete as many exits as possible without collecting any permanent powerups, including Mushrooms, Fire flowers, Feathers, Switch Palace blocks. Unable to fly, Mario is forced to confront most obstacles and overcome them in unique ways. Riding Yoshi is also banned. 86 out of the total 96 exits are completed.

This is the 10th published movie of Super Mario World that beats the game by clearing 11 of the 96 exits, the shortest route intended by the game developers. Of all the previous movies, not one had obsoleted its predecessor by more than 15 seconds. This movie sets a new record by beating the previous movie by 00:22.68 seconds and clocking in under 10 minutes. Ironically, Mario dies in the process.
The authors of this movie have found (more) new glitches to save time. The notable differences in gameplay are:
  • Plays a level which was not previously played (Yoshi's Island 1)
  • Skips Iggy's Castle
  • Optimizes Bowser fight
We recommend reading the author's comments to understand how the new glitches are used in this movie.

"Thank you for playing Super Mario World! Unfortunately, this trial copy will only let you play for 2.5 minutes."
This is a completely new type of Super Mario World TAS. It beats the game by getting the "THE END" screen in the second level (Yoshi's Island 3). This happens because a glitch allowing Yoshi to eat "nothing" enables players to manipulate memory and code into bringing up the final screen of the game.
The heated discussion about the categorical separation regarding this movie and the recently published "no save corruption" TAS invoked the creation of the "Corrupts Memory" category.

The credits glitch has been verified on console using a modified version of this TAS made with the lsnes emulator.

This TAS by bahamete, Kaizoman666 & Masterjun is an improvement of 06:43.97 minutes over the previous movie. The improvement comes from new glitches and better optimization.

"Thank you for playing Super Mario World! Unfortunately, this trial copy will only let you play for 1.5 minutes."
This is a completely new type of Super Mario World TAS. It beats the game by jumping to the credits from one of the two levels available from the start, Yoshi's Island 2. This happens because a glitch involving stunning a flying question block allows manipulating the code being executed by changing the position of sprites.
This run is 00:56.41 seconds faster than Masterjun's previous movie. For those who love to read the technical specifics of such runs, there are detailed author's comments about the new method used here. Suffice to say, 8 controllers are required to get this to work. See this run played back on a real console. If you want to see more movies like this, let this post be your guide.

Seven months after this TAS, Masterjun exploited the glitch used here to do more than just trigger the game's end; he used only controller input to embed his own games into Super Mario World itself.

Masterjun builds upon his previous work at destroying Super Mario World by programming some simple games inside it, using only controller input!
A technical explanation is available on the submission page.
This movie famously premiered via playback on a real Super Nintendo, at Awesome Games Done Quick 2014, as part of the first TASVideos presentation at a Games Done Quick event, which are hosted by SpeedDemosArchive.

This is the 3rd published movie in a category of impressively fast Super Mario World TASes. It beats the game by jumping to the credits from one of the two levels available from the start, Yoshi's Island 2. This happens because a glitch involving eating a Charging Chuck allows manipulating the code being executed by the game using only controller input.
This run is 00:57.75 seconds faster than Masterjun's previous movie. For more information on the new method used here, check out the clear and detailed author's comments.

Using a similar glitch, Masterjun has also used mere controller input to embed his own games into Super Mario World itself.

This is the 11th published movie of Super Mario World that beats the game by clearing 11 of the 96 exits, the shortest route intended by the game developers. This movie seems to be slower than the previous publication. However, barring emulation differences, this movie's in fact faster by 00:00.22 seconds, clocking at just less than 10 minutes. Ironically, Mario still dies in the process.
Not much is different from the previous publication, except for:
  • Grabbing a mushroom in Yoshi's Island 2 instead of Yoshi's Island 1, thus saving time;
  • Better block duplication in Yoshi's Island 3;
  • A potentially more entertaining Big Boo fight.

This is the 4th published movie in a category of impressively fast Super Mario World TASes. It beats the game by jumping to the credits from one of the two levels available from the start, Yoshi's Island 2. This happens because a glitch involving eating a Charging Chuck allows manipulating the code being executed by the game using only controller input.
This run is 00:00.17 seconds faster than Masterjun's previous movie. This improvement comes mostly from kicking the green shell forwards by touching it while Yoshi is ascending instead of eating it after spitting out the fireballs, which allows to spit out the fireballs much further before getting the green shell.

Using a similar glitch, Masterjun has also used mere controller input to embed his own games into Super Mario World itself.
