At least if you can try level 5 to see if it's possible and level 7 maybe. A quick test with them to see if something good is possible. If yes then you might change your mind and redo that warp run ^_^ Ah sorry for not answering before. I don't watch this site as much as before.

It's something that some tasers never try, but making the game to lag a lot causes strange things to happen sometimes. I did some testings with the lag in this game as I've noticed some things like this. Can something useful can be done, I don't know. The boost at level 13 is interesting. It gives me some ideas that I need to test right now. :P Because I don't remember if I have tested your idea and the ideas I have in my mind right now, I think I will test them.

I know the tasers did made their best. They are skilled Chrono Trigger TASers without a doubt. But it's sad to tell this because I know they worked really hard, however this version is not interesting. The enjoyment when I've watched the previous run was really high but this one, no. I'm deceived :P

Normally, I don't like when a 2 players run beat a 1 player run because I have always the feeling that it is only faster because it beats the enemies faster or make one player reach checkpoints earlier while the other is clearing of the area. BUT THIS RUN IS AWESOME. Ok there are tricks that can only be achieved with 2 players that saves lot of time but as previous taser of this game, I know the 1 p warpless was improvable due to these discoveries. Your run is clearly superior. :) Nice work! If I understood correctly, it must be the one from the jet that must die. Right? And you can get the warp 2 levels instead of level ending if I red correctly. Anyway, there is something I think should be tested if you didn't already try it. In level 5, the surf mode is similar to the jet. If you manage to kill the one on the surf then maybe something interesting may happen and so, it would maybe make that route faster than doing the level 4 route then warp to 6. There might be a possibility that the boss must still be killed due to some failures at first time surf mode maybe the 2nd time might be better then it would be a frames war between the level 4 route. But if it works, can you try to make the value which make the players to warp to see what it does since there is officially no warps in this level?

Like Nach wrote, it's the most entertaining version so far. Yes your precedent runs were faster but there were many unnecessary jumps and other annoying things Now, it looks clean. That's what I think this run should look. Good job!

First time watching a pokemon yellow run. There is one thing I say: "Wow, the game is not even played. " ^_^

That's stupid the direct link to a casino site rght in the description. I am against that. Casino IS NOT a game. Many people are having problems because of Casinos and other lotteries. Think of that seriously because putting that in the description of the site is very moron. Casino IS NOT a game.

Why that link to http://www.onlinecasinoadmin.com/ at front page? It's like this right now. "game you prefer, be it sports, casino, puzzle, adventure" And don't say it's unintentional, I won't believe you.

I'll be honest in that the only thing I hear here is "durr hurr it's faster than my movie".
It's also faster than most other different games' movie on this site. The J/U and E versions are not the same game even if they look so by some blinded eyes.

After watching this run and thought there was really a "new" glitch which wasn't the case, just the same bug but with a different result, I've decided to vote no. The run doesn't look optimal. As said earlier by some people which I fully agree, the run just look the same but turboed. It sucks. Come back with a "TRUE" new PAL version glitch and you might get my vote. Edit: Also, people should remember the debate between Bionic Commando and Hitler no Fukkatsu which have real differences. I won't understand this site goal if this case will be handled differently.

I really like the concept of this TAS. Making the impossible to be possible is what I expect from a TAS.

Although this game is better than Gradius, graphically and such, it is missing the super speed bug that Gradius has which has made it one of the most impressive TAS of all time. Myself has started a run of this game some years ago after realizing that it's not a good candidate for a great run. Because of this, I'm not interested to watch your run even if I'm sure you have put lot of your will to make it really fun to watch.

I've received an email from tasvideos about this topic.

Ah you. Don't make bad jokes like this even if it was april 1st. Though surprised and choked. But... that would be possible and I've almost believed that news on main page. It was hard to believe all the bullshits adelikat wrote. Though since I'm not really active here, anything could have happened. I've asked Baxter what's that bullshit, then he points me to this topic. But in the end, I guess if someday the admins get tired of tasvideos, they'll just give admin responsibilties to someone else like Bisqwit did 1 ½ years ago.

The only thing I like in this game is the menu theme. "You might be missing some of the benefits that stereo can provide!" hahah...
I was always wondering what he is saying. I could hear the "You might be" and "that stereo can provide!" but couldn't figure out the "missing some of the benefits" and even after reading your post and listening what he is saying I can barely recognize these words especepially the word "benefits".

Thank you :P I haven't tested that version I will do so when I will TAS a NES game. You say that the timing is different and such, slower or faster than old version?

Who would have thought a movie of this game to be entertaining...

4-2 2 frames faster by better flower-eating. Because of the terrible randomness in this level, it will send out 3 fireworks if the last number of the time goes "5", so I wasted 9 frames before the flagpole to get a "4". I won't make it if I didn't get 2 frames by better flagpole glitch. This situation wasn't appeared in the movie of klmz, unfortunately, I got a bad randomness again in 8-2, it was totally a bad luck ;(
Does that mean that you lost 21 frames? And yes, in smb2j, it's based on coins. Just get one more or one less coin and it will avoid that problem.

The other was a Contra clone. It is so much a Contra clone that, although I remember the game clearly, I can't describe it very much without describing Contra as well. The single biggest difference is that your characters look more like Master Chief, and I don't think aliens figured into the plot. Perhaps he can provide more details...
It sounds like Probotector. The european version of Contra.

plus, I'll ask along with the others, how is the CV4 run going? (If you're still doing the project, that is...)
Yes, well, I'm working on it. It's progressing slowly due to lot of things that takes an eternity to test. It's rather a complex game. The type of game that can't be done flawlessly.

Minor point: I think I counted 3 jumps in level 4, but the third one doesn't finish before the boss appears.
