That would hands down have to be Pokémon Yellow.

They all have great glitches, but for my money Metroid II provides the most wackiness.

Yeah Metroid II was just "I know what's gonna happen n-what the fuck?!!". MII it is.

I guess since I wasn't the only author working on the glitched Super Metroid movie it wouldn't make me a complete douchebag to vote on it. And I did enjoy it a lot more than any other movie listed. Although Pokémon Yellow was really nice.

Metroid II gets my vote here, though I grant I haven't watched the Pokémon Yellow TAS.

Metroid II also gets my vote (with Contra III being the runner-up).

Ooh, that's a tough one. MII kept surprising throughout the run and was generally entertaining to watch. But I have to say Pokemon wins out here, just because of how sudden and confusing the glitching was.
Even the best player is limited by the speed of his fingers, or his mind's ability to control them. But what happens when speed is not a factor, when theory becomes reality?

Samus using the X-Ray Scope to break into Tourian?! That is the reason I vote SM glitched!

Pokemon yellow is my favorite kind of glitching... Sorry, other three runs. You weren't bad, but the glitching just wasn't hillarious the same way it was in Pokemon Yellow.

It is not often that I agree so whole-heartedly with AKA and Swordless... the pokemon yellow run was insanely fucked up/awesome.

I thought Pokemon Yellow was the wackiest, craziest run over the rest, although I did like the Super Metroid X-Ray glitch

Actually the one listed is done by me, although I guess it makes more sense voting for Dark Clouds one since it was the first one to abuse the glitch.

I guess because very few actually nominated anything in time. Now that you remind me about it, it is a complete scandal that your AoS run isn't on the list, and probably something else too.

It was a toss-up between Metroid II and Pokemon, but Metroid II managed to keep my attention throughout the whole run, despite it being glitched beyond recognition. Pokemon was short and sweet, but MII packed a longer punch.

Pokemon Yellow FTW. Also, anyone able to seed metroid ii, should do so.
