Okay, I've played through the hack and I have to say it's pretty damn impressive. The levels are easy if you just play through them, but some are damn tough when you're trying to get 100 points in them. There are lots of clever things like eating coins through thin walls and using enemy boosts to reach places. The levels are very well balanced: not too hard, not too easy. It's too bad making YI TASes is so damn hard. I tried once and gave up after a week because the result looked so horrible.

Awesome! I wouldn't have thought an improvement this big was possible. The run was very entertaining.

I'm the one who changed it. I wasn't aware that there isn't a "The Legend of" prefix, and now I'm conflicted. I think Zelda 2 should be below the first game but I don't like the idea that the title isn't correct. I don't think I'll change it back, but anyone who can, may do so if they want.

A surprisingly entertaining movie. I would very much like to see it published.

It's not from any published run though. It's probably one of Saturn's RBO teasers seeing how he's in Norfair without Varia.

Why not? Is there something wrong in asking for help? You don't need to be rude, he's just asking.

I LOVE the trick you used on the 3-8 boss, I've never seen anything like that before!
You've never watched the TAS? It's even on the screen shot. Anyway, this is definitely my favorite TAS of all time. Can't wait to see more. The constant egg juggling and bouncing them off walls is awesome. You truly are a great TASer.

He did not DEMAND it, you buffoon. He was JOKING when he said that he REQUIRED it. In reality, he was asking nicely.

Yeah, why? Has nobody really ever come to think of that? Now that we have this good idea, we should just edit a NGPC emulator and make it work. We'll probably have NGPC movies submitted by the end of the week, yay! Seriously, if it was that easy, don't you think it would have been done already? Adding good, stable and working features to emulators is no easy task.

It is an interesting concept, but I don't think the movie would be very entertaining.

I'm sure Bisqwit would have something to say about that.

Maybe you would get more replies by asking nicely instead of being so demanding.

You can see both averages on the rating page. Why would you need to see it on the movie page? I think the way it is is fine. I want to see a solid number that is easy to compare. If I'm interested further, I'll check the rating page.

Can't get it to work. The logo in the beginning is a garbled rectangle of different colors, then the screen goes black and for a while I can hear the sound. When I press start the screen just goes black. Zsnes crashes, snes9x just goes black. EDIT: Ah, the rom just needed a header, playing fine now.

How can you say MC Kids and Rockin' Kats are silly games? They're awesome! RK has the amazing punch glove that can do ANYTHING and MC Kids has awesome levels and lots of stuff to find. Anyway, I'm voting meh on this for reasons already mentioned by a lot of people.

I watched this some time ago but didn't remember to vote. Anyway, I agree with adelikat. Much of the game's charm is in exploring the big levels. When it's gone there's not much left. Voting no.

Voted no because the movie looks sloppy and boring.

Speaking of bomb jumping, I think it might be very possible to bomb jump up to Varia. I was trying it out the other night and got pretty close. You just need a bit of luck and you need to start bombing at the right moment to get past the bugs coming from the pipes. It's not easy, but it's not completely impossible since there's nothing directly blocking the way. Naturally, you'd have to do it with frame advance and lots of save states.

Also, it seems all sequence breaking tricks have been dummed down or removed all together. Why bother having a massive world to move through, if there's a set path to do everything? might as well just break it down into a series of levels.
So why is is that you can complete the game without ever beating Kraid? Or that it is possible to complete the game without ever getting Hi-jump or the grappling beam? Or that you can get Screw Attack before Space Jump? Maybe you're just not that great at finding this stuff.

TASVideos is definitely for the better. Even if people don't what a TAS is, after getting to know the site, they will. I don't see the name as a problem that confuses people, but a solution that will make the term TAS more well known.

Thank you, catnap222. I might try that sometime if I get my motivation back. As for the grapple beam, I didn't know it had a paralyzing effect either before I made the movie. I have no idea if it works in the original. The reason I used it was because my current weapons were nowhere near powerful enough to kill the enemies in a short amount of time and I couldn't afford to take damage either.
