This speedrun utilizes the Fool's Mate sequence, scientifically proven to be the fastest way to win at chess (nor tied by any other variations). This is the quickest possible game of chess, with all other solutions costing more moves. Additionally, white (player 1) is chosen to lose, as having white (player 1) win would require an extra move.
I was going to do the whole cartridge but they coded Reversi wrong and totally killed my vibes.
This is also the only game of the three without movement delay so decided it would be prettier on it's own.
I've been TASing a few games with link cable functionality and find it to be really fun, so decided to submit this as a starter and see what happens.
(These little runs between a few 30,000+ re-record runs I'm working on soothes the soul super well)

nymx: Claiming for judging.
nymx: Due to recent events, I have to reject this TAS...since the author has been banned.
