Sweet, a bunch of obsoleted runs.

Indeed. Well, beside 4-5 runs that are not obsoleted; just outdated. It clearly isn't a good promotional video now (and I'm not sure it was back then).

I think it was good promotional material back when it was made. I'd like to see a new one made, but everyone who has tried so far has given up and/or disappeared.

Hmm, honestly, I'd not call a considerably long video (with nearly half of it given to credits; I guess that was done to let the ending song fit in completely) with bombastic text spangled with all sorts of errors anything close to good promotional material (and the general response kinda shows that). That wasn't the point, though; which is: it doesn't do anything good now. Maybe it's better to put it off the YouTube until a better one is made?

well, making promotional video is not all that hard. One needs to know what to show in it, that's the problem. I, for example, know nothing about Metroid series, and thus can not choose ood parts of metroid runs. If we decide and encode separately every worth showing in promo fragment of good run, the rest is technical work with a little bit of creativity ^^

:D I believe Somone already asked for a list of best moments in runs, but it was long ago. I would like to have list with movie name - ~starting frame - ~ending frame ^^ and I have never tried to encode snes/n64/gens movies =)

I believe you think I know what those are... I have never played metroid, like I said.

Here's my list of runs that may look cool in a new promo. Note that the length of each snippet cut from these runs may vary from a couple of seconds to a minute (and maybe more). Higher priority was given to 1) newer/more up-to-date runs, which 2) look good and 3) showcase something never seen in an unassisted run. Suggestions on the particular scenes are welcome. NES • Gradius by adelikat (!!!) • Mega Man by Bisqwit and FinalFighter (!!!) • Excitebike by Superninja • SMB3 by JXQ (since there's more potentially interesting things than in the any%, IMO) • LoZ by Phil • Mega Man 5 by Baxter • Gimmick! by Sami Outinen • SMB2 (any%) by DonamerDragon • Ninja Gaiden 1 (& 2?) by Scumtron • the upcoming 2-p Contra by adelikat • Battle of Olympus by FODA • LoZ2 by Gigafrost (because we need at least one severely broken game beside Mega Man here) • Kirby's Adventure by JXQ • TMNT by adelikat • TMNT2 by Baxter • Arkanoid by Baxter (the short version, or maybe the upcoming full version) • Castlevania 3 (Grant or Alucard, or both) by Samhain-Grim • some snippets from the MM3456 run? SNES • SMW (both versions) and SDW runs by Fabian/JXQ (!!!) • Super Metroid by JXQ (!!!) • Contra 3 by Hero of the day • Umihara Kawase by flagitious • DKC (both versions) by Arne the great • DKC2 by Comicalflop • MMX/X2 by DeHackEd • Smash TV by JXQ • Prince of Persia 2 by Nitsuja • Sparkster by Nitsuja • Super Castlevania 4 by Phil & Genisto • several fatalities from MK2 by Samhain-Grim • Killer Instinct by DarkFulgore Genesis/32X • Sonic 2 & 3K by Nitsuja (!!!) • Sonic 3K by Upthorn (or maybe S1&K by JXQ) • Golden Axe by trazz • The Lost Vikings by Ouzo • Comix Zone by xoinx • Ecco the Dolphin by Nitsuja • Ristar by Upthorn • Knuckles Chaotix by Upthorn GBA • Sonic Advance 1/2/3 by Nitsuja (!!!) • Castlevania HoD by JXQ (!!!) • Castlevania AoS by pirate_sephiroth • Castlevania CotM (short one?) by OgreSlayeR • any of the upcoming Metroid: Zero Mission runs • any of the upcoming Metroid Fusion runs (or maybe P.JBoy's unfinished any% WIP) • Ninja Five-0 by Nitsuja • Mega Man Zero (don't know which of them, as they're a bit too similar to say for sure) N64 • SM64 by FODA (!!!), probably the upcoming any% by AKA • some SSB snippets (they look cool as short clips)? • upcoming OoT improvement by GuanoBowl? • upcoming MKT run?

Based on moozooh's list, good moments I can think of • Gradius by adelikat (!!!) "Adelikat"/"Eat at joes" • Mega Man by Bisqwit and FinalFighter (!!!) latest glitch that saved 10 seconds • Excitebike by Superninja flying through the whole screnn few times in a row • SMB3 by JXQ (since there's more potentially interesting things than in the any%, IMO) Crazy 1up jumping/wallthroughs • Ninja Gaiden 1 (& 2?) by Scumtron NG2 moonwalking dane with clones • some snippets from the MM3456 run? Some moment that looks really similar on all four runs • MMX/X2 by DeHackEd Some moment that looks really similar on both runs • Sonic Advance 1/2/3 by Nitsuja (!!!) Camhack + original camera with approximate relative positions =) • Castlevania HoD by JXQ (!!!) Something from that short run with second character... • Castlevania CotM (short one?) by OgreSlayeR Throwing BIG bones out of nowhere • Mega Man Zero (don't know which of them, as they're a bit too similar to say for sure) New MMZ4 run :D Well, Phoenix fight in MMZ2 is nice, boss refights in current MMZ4 would do too. I have not seen or do not remember all the rest runs listed. so, start times or frame numbers of good parts are welcome )

You might be better off showing the Mega Man multiruns in slow motion, just to emphasize what's going on.

I suggest that King's Bounty is somehow included.

Well, yeah, but it's kinda difficult to show such a short run in a pre-edited footage without the actual gameplay sequence being suspected in being edited.

You might just as well show the whole of Maxim's run in HoD, since it only takes something like 30 seconds. Some scenes from the Super Metroid 100% would be good, namely the parts with the speed boosted spring ball. Parts from Saturn's RBO videos would be good too. You'll need SOME zipping stuff from a Megaman, though I think the latest stuff in the Rockman & Forte run with the lightning would work well. I would be really amused if Rhythm Tengoku music is used as the backdrop.
I like my "thank you"s in monetary form.
