I'd just like to say that I found it hilarious at 9:48 when you blew up the snowmobile in mid-air and the "This is a tool-assisted recording" message popped up. In fact, I'd recommend that as an official screenshot, if you can fudge things a bit so they show up at the same time.

I recommend that you use the (J) version - if only because of the name: "Space Funky B.O.B."

Watched the AVI, liked it. Yes. (I think an "all secret rooms" would be a good watch too, what do you think?)

...well, it's like this: the whole turtle, dragon palace, lady thing comes from a Japanese fable - guy gets taken by a turtle to an undersea palace, meets a princess, guy lives there for awhile, gets homesick, gets box with a warning not to open it, comes back and finds everyone he's ever known or loved is dead, opens box and -surprise!- gets turned into an old man (or a dessicated corpse) due to having actually lived underwater for hundreds of years without knowing it.

So, I just finished watching the Dragon King part of the movie and was struck by how odd it was. Since it was only released in Japan, you'd figure that most players would know the story of the turtle and the undersea palace, and also know to not open the box, even when the turtle pesters you to (and indeed, the expected happens if you say no and change your mind). But if you open it right away, you get a reward?! Oh...Randil, Bisqwit, Upthorn, thank you all very much for your effort.

...well. So, I'm currently watching the run and starting to reconsider my "no" vote. For one thing, the full game is slow. It does tend to drag a bit, and just doesn't seem to have the same flow as the original Zelda did. Then again, that may be due to the deliberately unoptimized play here... Hmm. If my vote weren't already spent, I would vote "yes", with the condition that this movie would also be included, so that fans could see what they were and weren't missing. Baxter, thank you for your hard work.

Just curious: it seems that the movie was recorded with some of the sound channels disabled. It's most notable in the Bartzilla level, and the end credits. Was that necessary?

"Did I enjoy this run?" No. While I found the skipping to be interesting enough, I would have preferred to see the game played out is it was meant to be.

This could be a powerful boost to TAS support - not just the notoriety of the person, but people creating TAS videos and then using that information to make more refined regular speedruns. ...just a thought.

Personally, I found the "preview AVI" too noisy and distracting to enjoy. On the other hand, I am impressed that you were able to create a no-death four-game run. Meh.

This is great. Thank you for keeping up on this - when I saw it had been taken out of "NES Games" I thought interest had dried up.

This might be better suited for a "Baseball Simulator 1.000" romhack. At least that way you can give the players super powers.

Everybody already saw this, right? Here's the torrent.

I will also vote "No", as I also prefer full-track runs rather than shortcuts. As an aside, I thought the emulator made everything look excellent, so it was a shame to not see all the Rainbow Road "effects".

I know there was a Dash Galaxy movie submitted here previously...

What about if you put together a "portfolio" of GB and GBA movies to show what can be done with a shared, semiopen source medium? If there's interest, then propose making nitsuja (or whoever) an "unofficial" member of the team for the purposes of coding in re-recording.

I'm very pleased that people have taken an interest in this, to create a good first published run, and now a second, even better one. Thank you for your interest, both of you, and of course, everyone who voted, even if you thought the game was boring.
