Hokuto no Ken 3 - Shinseiki Souzou - Seiken Retsuden(The North Star Fist 3)

  • Emulator used: Bizhawk 2.6.3(neshawk core)
FCEUX freezes and I can't see the ending.

glitch

null file select

file No.3 downkey after 1frame abutton
flag all on
Wrong starting position.
Kaioh(last boss) if you talk to him because he has already been bought, you will get the ending.

Technic

encounter avoidance

1frame stop "しちせいこう"(Seven Star Perfume) use 1500frame(0x06BE 2Byte) avoid fixed enemies in four squares, including the entrance to the building.
No buy "しちせいこう" and 4battle escape 20frame slow

start 1step down

Since you are standing in a map transition square at the start, if you open the command without changing the square, the map transition will take priority.

discoverer

"りゅうず"(ryuuzu)
Samsara: Fixed game name, and judging.
Samsara: File replaced with a 29 frame improvement, added "game end glitch" branch, and accepting!
fsvgm777: Processing.

Why does it freeze in FCEUX? Is this just an artifact of uninitialized SRAM?

The cause is unknown. A bug occurs in the second conversation, the conversation sound effect keeps coming out, and after a while, the screen starts shaking vertically and finally freezes.

User movie #75249578091863469 I found something out while judging: I noticed walking upward on the overworld seems to lag in certain spots, so I tested a bit and found a different path that lags less. I don't know the game enough to be able to test further, though. AmaizumiUni, would you mind looking further into this yourself?
