welcome to Takahashi Meijin no Bouken Shima IV, the last japanese famicom game. this is a Metroid-type game. for advance at this game you must defeat minibosses for get items that allow you to destroy walls (you can use them as a weapon) and defeat a boss for finish the level and rescue a friend dinosaur.

very important 
in this game you can not run until do you finish pyramid world, but in that point do you have the Skate Board
i improved this movie 2:40 minutes than my previous version.
compare times:
v1- 30:39 minutes v2- 26:46 minutes this- 24:06 minutes
changes:
- stone monster defeated faster.
- at volcano stage i do not get the dinosaur (time saver).
- at glacier i do not get the dinosaur, i defeated metal crab with spear.
- jellyfish faster.
- at mineral level i do not get the dinosaur.
- at pyramid level i get dinosaur.
i only changed to dinosaur once (time saver).
- at witch castle i do not get dinosaur. defeated skull cobra and witch doctor faster. at the final boss i changed items for made it variable. you get the same results throwing axes than throwing the boomerang. it takes the same time throwing two axes than throwing the boomerang and wait his return.

- recorded with Famtasia (Sorry.)
- aims for fastest time. - does not get powerups. - takes damage for save time. - genre: adventure

a very improved version. enjoy it.
EDIT:this really hard to improve, i don't know how to improve this run. if somebody founs a way to improve this, tell it.

I watched this and have to say that it was very strange to see adventure island blended with metroid. It's too bad you can't get the skateboard earlier. One question, it seems you miss shots because you throw too many bones too fast. Sometimes it also seems that you switch items too much, but it's hard to tell because you do get in and out of the menu pretty fast. Otherwise a pretty smooth run.
