Okay, I doubt that there will be anything like this for a few more years. But imagine how tough it can be to beat all three Ninja Gaiden games with one movie file? 4 Megaman's?! 2 Megaman X's? How about 3 Ninja Gaiden's?! Ha... :P

I actually had the same thought about a year ago, but quickly abandoned it since I'm not a masochist.

How ironic, I've been thinking about this too. It might look cool if you focus more on timing movements so it's apparent they come from the same controller rather than hunting frames. But I think it will be very hard to do this, with all the wall jumping and all.

Hmm, I thought there already was a topic on this... but I couldn't find it. The idea has been mentioned before here though. I don't know the exact possibilities, but there are quite a few long left-rooms, which might cause trouble.

Yeah, long segments where you need to move opposing directions in different games, NG3 being the only one with vertical scrolling and left+right and up+down stopping Ryu dead in his tracks in NG3 are just the first problems that come to mind. Letting the between-stage cinemas play partially might be helpful, but would be fairly annoying to watch. Letting them play through all the way might be good, but would probably throw completion times way out of synch.
