Yes. Yes, yes, yes. A THOUSAND TIMES YES! Skyboxes being broken, more than a decade of common sense being told to shove it, and one of the best TASes of all-time. Mr. Stej, this is your magnum opus, cherish it for the rest of time.

It's annoying when you don't provide a YouTube video for the run you've submitted, ESPECIALLY when the notes contain a video showing a much less optimized version of the category in question.

Who knew that spawning a blue coin as you collected a shine would f___ with the game that much? Another game destroyed by computer science, another yes vote.

After reading the notes on this TAS as well as the notes from the currently published TAS for All Tracks, I'm quite astonished that this was improved by this much. Also, seeing a significant amount of the tracks reduced to "How fast can I crash my car into that specific wall?" is hilarious. Yes vote.

I would love to see runs of Rally-X Arrangement and Pac-Man Arrangement (I had a collection of Pac-Man games on GBA that included Pac-Man Arrangement). Also, high-score focused TAS when?

This was a treat to watch! Inhuman Bejeweled gameplay is fascinating. And, to clarify, TASVideos always times from power on to last input, so the time should be a few seconds faster than what is specified. Yes vote, and I'm hoping for an "All Badges" TAS of this game in the future (or whatever those achievements are called).

I can't say that I had "Ice Flower and Penguin Suit make 1-1 Propeller obsolete" on my bingo card. You guys managed to take a game that had literally used the exact same route for 14 years and rip it to utter shreds by way of Toad House. The 5-Tower cycle skip was absolutely filthy, and the 8-Airship one...HOW THE HELL DID YOU COME UP WITH THAT?! Undoubtedly a yes vote.

I played the hell out of this game as a kid, countless hours in each game mode, and yet, I kid you not, and I am very embarrassed to say this, I DID NOT KNOW THAT TOON LINK, WOLF, AND JIGGLYPUFF WERE IN THE SUBSPACE EMISSARY IN ANY CAPACITY! I went 15 whole years without knowing that those three secret fights were even a thing! For that reason, on top of yet another glorious Brawl TAS, this is an instant yes vote.

LOL! This game actually allows you to just bugger off! Yes vote for the absurdity.

Whereas other Henry Stickmin games at least have different routes to the end, Breaking the Bank is just a single choice that you have to make as quickly as possible. This submission is an interesting stress test of the rules in regards to how trivial something can be while still being acceptable for publication.

I'm voting meh because of game choice. Is there really a point to doing 100% runs of Sonic 3 and/or Sonic & Knuckles when such a run already exists for Sonic 3 & Knuckles?

EUROPEAN SUPER METROID PROVEN SUPERIOR TO NORTH AMERICAN/JAPANESE SUPER METROID?! In all seriousness, a fantastic improvement to the ACE run, who knew that spikes could be useful for things other than death traps?

I didn't even know that Contra was originally an arcade game until a year ago, believe it or not. Everyone always talked about the NES port and seemingly swept the arcade version under the rug of history (same thing with Super C). It's nice to see a TAS of this version finally completed.

Avert the eyes of every child in the room to something other than this abomination that dares to call itself a subsequent significant rerelease of Sonic the Hedgehog. In all seriousness, this run on the GBA version is much different from the TAS on the original version of Sonic 1. Different physics, different tech, even different glitches. Even though this is one of the worst rereleases of all time, I think the significant differences in the routing and execution is enough to justify this run being accepted onto the site, so this gets a yes vote.

I remember this one from back in the day, nice to see a TAS for it.

You know what I'd like to see? A TAS of SIE2 that focused on getting the highest possible score, showcasing every method of scoring pushed to their absolute limit.

As someone who played this game back in the day, even though I am the pretty useless GamesFan2000, this really blew my mind. Like, seriously, how is the collision detection THIS badly programmed?! In any case, it results in supersonic speeds off of ceilings and walls being ignored entirely. Yes vote.

GamesFan2000 isn't liable for their unimportance. In other news, OH MY GOD THE NOSTALGIA IS OVERWHELMING! Raft Wars, a member of the Flash Hall of Fame, and a game that I greatly enjoyed playing as a kid. The internet has changed so much since 2007. Anyways, this TAS is 10 different levels of insane (pun definitely intended)! The shots are beautiful, and the enemies are "sleeping with the fishes" before you can say hit me "...Baby One More Time"! An excited yes vote for this classic!

Caution: You are reading a post by the notoriously unimportant GamesFan2000. Reader's discretion is advised. Looks like 3DS won't be the only platform joining the ranks of TASVideos in 2022, as Adobe Flash is also making its debut. And the first Flash submission is a game straight from the Flash Hall of Fame, the one and only Meat Boy. Truth be told, I didn't even know this game existed even back when Flash was all the rage. I wouldn't blame anyone in the same boat either, because the sequel, legendary Indie Hall of Fame inductee Super Meat Boy, damn near erased it from history due to being much more polished and reaching a larger audience through being published on XBLA and numerous ports to later systems. This is really the first time I've seen any gameplay from Meat Boy, so I am completely unqualified to say anything constructive. The encode shown is very impressive, and while it's slightly outdated, there's only a few frames difference with the one that was actually being submitted. This is a yes vote in spades.

I'm not going to fault Samsara for reverting their claim for judgment. However, it's alarming that a TAS of this level of importance has yet to be claimed by another judge, with it being one month since this was submitted. I mean, this is the maiden submission for 3DS, and it's Ocarina of Time (a remake, yes, but it's still OoT).
