Hey all, does anyone know how the clip through the wall in Mexico 2 works? I am learning the speedrun for this game and would like to incorporate it if I can. Link to video It happens right at 10:32. I spoke with Gutosur, the current WR holder, and he said that he just mimicked what the TAS appeared to be doing - just jump at the right spot and spin at the right time. My success rate is very low, so I was hoping someone had more detail on it. Thank you.

Bacon and I ended up finding some uses for it. May be more on the way. Link to video Link to video

Not sure if this will be useful, but is kind of neat. Store a pogo by getting hit out of a pogo attack, stick to a wall, then punch something while upside-down. Properties are not fully understood yet. Note the big shift in character position when hit at 0:41. Link to video

That's an input file for BizHawk, not an actual video.
Thanks - I was able to play it with the matching version of BizHawk. Here's a video version of it in case others want to view it without setting up BizHawk and/or acquiring an X-Men 2 rom. https://youtu.be/HYHs0Da-tbg A few interesting notes: - This can be performed with Beast as well. - You can also store the pogo by taking damage from a projectile. https://youtu.be/L6YFHHrpnAE

Hey all, I've come across a way to skip floors on the pyramid level that I haven't seen discussed yet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pZZlGiVg-zw&feature=youtu.be&t=12 I wasn't able to play the video linked by Truncated above that shows the method found by Orkan. I thought I needed the Rad Video Tools player, but that didn't seem to work. Anyone have advice on that? I would like to skip floors in the speedrun and it may be that the method in that video is faster or easier to perform than what I linked above.
