I ain't doing it, but here's an idea. How about a tri-game TAS playaround on three fighting games that look a lot like each other? What I mean by such games is: X-Men vs. Street Fighter, Marvel Super Heroes vs. Street Fighter and Marvel vs. Capcom. I know the first and the last are emulable in FBA, and I'm sure the second is too (but I haven't tested it). I mean, go look at gameplay videos for each game, and you'll see how near-looking they are. The idea is to pick the same characters and to do the same combos in all of these games, at the same time, beating different opponents. I know there are surely balance difference in each of these games, but the movesets are the same, so I'm not expecting each opponent to be beaten at the exact same time, but close. So... what do you think? Is it possible and is it a good idea?

DS TAS of 2012
never found the appeal in multiple TASes, it's just distracting

I've considered doing this and have a short test using sfa1,2,3 so it is possible You can't just use any game beacuse fba maps keys differently depending on the game, so you need to pick games using the same system. so you can't do sfa,sf2,sf3 I did a mshvsf test a while ago http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFER4q5z29M I think mvc has some emulation problems due to turbo speed also keep in mind xsf turbo 2 is the same as msf, mvc turbo 1 what characters are you thinking about? Zangief is by far the most interesting character in msf, mvc imo and everyone is broken in xsf

if your interested here is my old prof of concept http://www.mediafire.com/?1vw5cra6yqntwas it picks ryu and does a combo in sfa1u, sfa2u, and sfa3u it was also really hard to do
