Words don't even describe. I've played this back all the way through at least 10 times and I'm still amazed. Star this please. No, really, it's more impressive than anything on bisqwit's site yet IMO, except maybe the uber-glitched Rockman run. Great job all around.

I'm not sure if this is possible on emulator, because they're might be differences between console and emulator. Umm...no. That defeats the whole purpose of emulation in the first place. I'm not taking sides on the debate as to what's real and what isn't, ya'll can fight that out yourself...I'm simply saying that the emulators are straight copies of what the actual second-gen systems did.

Could you PLEASE stop using that freaking mkv format, whoever is creating it? Or at least give a VERY good reason to use it? They don't work in my system with winamp nor even with windows media player. The core media player knows how to play them, but at least the previous video had bad problems with the sound. Why use this obscure format? It's not like the videos had three soundtracks and subtitles in ten different languages. I see no rational reason to use it and cause viewing problems to the vast majority of people.
Seconded - can't get anything to run the video, but the audio track plays just fine. Would definitely love to see this from the way it's referred to.

Alright, this is coming from the point-of-view of a big fan of superplay videos, but I have made absolutely no attempts to do super*slow speed/save state/etc*plays on anything...however, I do speedrun games to show off - had a competition with a friend over clearing Dynasty Warriors 5 maps that lasted about a week until he realized he was getting destroyed ^^ Anyway, I'd be forced to agree with quietkane/others in that if you can pull off the wall-phasing glitch from nes mario or the freeze-enemy sequence breaker from metroid, then you've earned the time you save with it since certain things are just ridiculous to pull off...or even find out in the first place. I mean, someone, at some point, had to come up with the idea for this stuff and if you're clever enough to think of something the game will allow you to do without it being intended, then by all means rock it out.

I was in the early 20s when i died, i suspect it was probably 22 but I was more focused on trying to finish it and failing.

I'll agree with the last statement - Attempting to play this video abuses numerous glitches in my windows explorer/watson that probably weren't intended :( Haven't had any problems with fddshow up until now, but not only will this video not play, my computer can't even open the still shot to use as a thumbnail, and can't even preview the thumbnail for the folder containing my superplay folder. Will try the other codec then re-download, I guess, but that was kind of a bummer.
