A few SNES TASes I want to nominate: [4637] SNES F-Zero by nymx in 39:30.36 F-Zero is a complex game, and it's nice to see a full TAS to completion. The use of a brute forcer to find the best route really shows with how inhumanly tight some of the driving is. [4735] SNES The Lion King by EZGames69 & SBDWolf in 11:22.99 It's nice to see this incredibly mean game get demolished with glitches to get past chunks of levels. [4778] SNES Wario's Woods "Round Game" by PoochyEXE in 31:20.84 This is one I feel gets overlooked since it's an inscrutable puzzle game. The RNG involved for getting the right colors and combos makes for a mesmerizing watch for the entire run for me. I'd recommend it if you like weird puzzle games being dominated.

Look at those sweet subpixels. You can't look at them, because they're subpixels, but they look so good." - The8bitbeast "It's as if I knew what was going to happen. It's as if I had the plan written in front of me and I was reading it. I mean, I do have it in front of me, but I'm not reading it." -garagedooropener
