I have also tried changing that aspect ratio setting as well, and it still doesn't create any time save.

I remember seeing that setting the Wii to 4:3 mode would make the cutscene before 8-Airship to be 2 seconds faster due to a faster camera pan. I was curious if that was used in this TAS or if there was a reason it wasn’t used. (Note, this isn’t a suggestion that this is a must include improvement, but something I’d figure I bring up.) https://youtu.be/gkt8L3t1GEU
I am aware of this. Unfortunately, TASing in 4:3 on Dolphin does not have the same effect as 4:3 on a physical Wii. Physical systems add black bars to the top and bottom of the screen, where Dolphin just visually stretches the game vertically. I am not aware of a way to get this time save in a TAS.

Fantastic TAS and an incredible change in meta! You don't get to see an improvement quite like this very often.

This page talks about NSMBDS. Does NSMBWii use the same RNG?
Yes, NSMBWii uses the same RNG algorithm as NSMBDS.
