If you REALLY want to make an unassisted run, your best chance would to just submit a run to SDA, even though it'll be hard to get certain games you want to run.

Might be a controller issue.
In fact, playing at a higher speed does improve your reflexes, at least temporarily — until your brain has re-accomodated to the normal (slower) speed, you will have a benefit of having your reflex basically overclocked for a few hours. However, it also may throw off your timing if you are relying on it more than on pure reflex in your runs (which may be especially obstructive in memorization-heavy games). Playing game at a slower speed almost always hurts your ability, though.
I actually meant 100% speed on the emulator(normal speed)

This is a weird game. First you have to kill some naked pink-haired kids, and if that's not bad enough, then you have to kill some cute puppies. Then there's the weird anime chick with a flag who appears at odd places. Then there are some cylindrical heads with sunglasses and pink machoke-lookalikes...
Don't forget that you also have to pepper-spray a ghost...

For the record, there was a Lolo (I think; or at least it was something very similar) game for NES whose point was to reunite two characters by guiding both of them at once through asymmetrical labyrinth in every level.
I think that's that really-often-pirated Famicom game called Binary Land.

I actually saw a glitch on Youtube that skipped all the challenges. However, you are right that this will probably be a boring TAS, even though I think VirtuaNES had the microphone option.
I regret making this topic. :(

I saw the Wikipedia article of this game and though this might make a good TAS, since it is supposed to be the hardest NES/Famicom game ever made. I might start working on this sometime. The only problem is that FCE Ultra's top menu messes up on me when I try to play ANY game.

Woah! You beat the game in a really awesome manner. Yes vote.
EDIT:But however, I do agree that the points that other people pointed out apply, so I'm leaning to meh.

SDA doesn't accept shoot-em-up runs since most shmups are auto-scrolling and the only way you can affect the speed are the bosses.(someone asked on the SDA forums if they could run R-Type III just yesterday)Try http://super-play.co.uk/. You should try to beat easy or hard in 1 life and submit that there..
