Yes, you read the thread name right. I will be TASing all 4 Wario Land games. I'm going to need all the info I can get, so please help. On a side note, Chamale said that if I can beat all 4 records, he'll eat a hat filled to the brim with haggis. And then I'll post it on google video. My goal: All 4 records beaten.

Interesting I'm sure, but I'm afraid I would not watch this quadrun.

Not another quad run. Sure, it's very impressive, but a hell to watch. And in any way you won't be able to beat any records, I'm sure. And besides, are they that much alike anyway? They need to have almost the exact same graphics and gameplay, else it won't work at all. I can't say as I haven't played any of them.

You might not even be able to finish all 4 at all with the same input. At least not at a decent speed.

First of all, Wario Land 3 has no record so, theres one already. As for the other 3, I think I can find some tiny 1 frame improvements somewhere or other.

Tiny 1 frame improvements, and massive de-optimization in order to make all of them finish.

Yeah, they do. if you look at them, they all use the same form of gameplay.

Sure, but you'd still need to stall the other games while you execute these improvements. You can't keep running up in all games throughout the run.

I don't think this is a good idea, the recently published quad was accepted because if was somewhat novel (as in the first). Don't expect people to be so warm to this idea second time round.

(20:41:39) (itsblah) besides...they run on different systems, right? (20:41:52) (itsblah) VBA wont run a movie file unless the movie file has the right system (20:42:09) (itsblah) so you would need different files for the games
Sorry, but unless its a tri-run or you're experienced in hacking VBA this probably won't work.

Also I was thinking... Quadrun as your first? Isn't that a bit overkill?

Tell you what, Rridgway. Get us a 60 second long, generally unoptimized WIP of all the games at once. Can't be that hard when you're the mast, right? You have 12 hours.

10 of my english pounds I bet on your failure to produce a quadrun with your goals in main topic.

Then you have until Teusday at 0001 PST to make a 60 second unoptimized WIP of all 4 Wario Land games being played at once. If you can't do that, you relinquish all claims of being a master at the game and you will forever give up attempting a quad run of the game. edit: And you have to change your avatar to something non-Wario. Who agrees with these terms?

But I thought you were a Wario master? And masters most certainly do not say '2sday'.
