I do like the game and I do like that the programmer left out a easter egg within the game.

Enjoy a short run of the game. This trick works on all systems except the Commodore 64 version of it.

Have you read Archanfel's post?

If you mean to use trick with getting this sequence of items:
Cake
Hammer
Earth
Apple
Tap
...and to skip nearly all levels i consider this action as a cheat and not used it. And i'm willing to bet that any competent judge will reject such "any%" run.
It's not a trick, as you claim it, but a cheat, and the reason why Archanfel didn't collect these in his run.
I myself tried in ePSXe and got the same results. To go on further, the CRC32 hash I get with the PSX Disc Hasher does not match with the one on redump.org (090F37C9 instead of redump.org's 2F7737A3), so it may as well be a bad dump.
EDIT:
So I managed to find a dump whose full CRC32 matches with that of redump.org's. Now come the good news:
1) The movie syncs on it.
2) The credits don't bug up!
In the end, the one that's commonly found is the bad dump, but the TAS syncs on the "good" dump.
EDIT 2:
Note to publishers: I'll encode and publish this movie when it gets accepted.

Spikestuff also told me the same thing, but the reason that let me upload to Archive.org is to avoid deleting the file after a while if no one used it which Mediafire do.
Citation needed.
All the files I uploaded to MediaFire on my account are still available, some going as far back as 2010.
EDIT:
AngerFist's requested encode is now available on MediaFire:
https://www.mediafire.com/?yzuiafvrf7m4udt
As a rule of thumb, you should not upload your encodes straight to Archive. We (the publishers) take care of that when a run gets accepted. Therefore, upload to e.g. MediaFire first, so we can review it.
Secondly, the primary downloadable is supposed to be 10-bit 4:4:4; however, this is not the case here (yours is YV12 (or 8-bit 4:2:0)), so it's not even acceptable.

fsvgm, could you pretty please do one of your marvelous lossless encode? I would be much much obliged :D
Addendum re: ROM dump: It seems that even in the No-Intro set, there are inconsistencies. The version labelled (USA) (SGB Enhanced) (which I guess is the perfect ROM) I got is, in fact, recognised by BizHawk as being the (Europe) version (needless to say its SHA1 checksum doesn't match with that of the ROM used), whereas the one labelled as (Europe) (SGB Enhanced) I got is recognised as being the (USA) version by BizHawk (the ROM used for this movie).
On Windows 7 and 8(.1), you can. (go to Control Panel -> Windows Update -> Change settings -> Set to "Notify but don't download")
On Windows 10, you can't.
That particular run was obsoleted by the Arcade version. However, since the introduction of the Vault, the NES version is no longer obsoleted by the Arcade version.
See this post.
Technically, we do have both the NES and the Arcade versions published on the site. This run obsoleted the NES run back when it was first published. However, following the introduction of the Vault, the NES run was no longer obsoleted by the Arcade version.
See this post.
And as I suspected, the movie description of this run was never edited to reflect this and led to confusion. I've now edited the description to reflect this.
The very first avatar I used on this site. It's actually a portion of the title screen (which randomises every so often) of the game ROM Check Fail (Windows standalone) (Linux standalone) and my name slapped on it. Very original, I know.
Following my second return to the site (June 6th, 2012) and until August 23rd, 2012, I had Youmu Konpaku from the Touhou Project series of videogames as my avatar:
From August 23rd, 2012 until November 10th, 2019 (officiously until May 25th, 2019 on this website), I used various avatars depicting Yuyuko Saigyouji, also from the Touhou Project series of videogames:

Since November 10th, 2019 (officiously since May 25th, 2019 on this website), I have Badeline from Celeste as my avatar:
(November 10th, 2019 - April 8th, 2020)
(April 8th, 2020 - now)
Whew, what an amount.
By the way, I also have mood avatars. You can see those that I used at least once here (there are a couple others I haven't used yet). Of note that I also have an alternate mood set (1001-1013) featuring Badeline from Celeste.
EDIT 2019-11-10: I have somewhat revamped my mood avatars now. Mood avatars 1-42 and 1201 now feature Madeline from Celeste, while my new "default" avatar now moved to slot 1001 (so as to have a smooth transition).
I just tested MvDK on the mGBA core and the graphical bug was gone but instead replaced with a different one. Each cutscene that shows DK with his bag entering the key door is invisible.
As far as I know, mGBA 0.3.1 fixed that particular graphical bug.
I think this could be a good idea. Along the same line of thought, might I recommend a thread for Gruefood/Vault Tier changes? With a GrueDude to complete the triumvirate. I nominate #1493: Bisqwit's DOS Star Control II in 35:03.50.
If you read the submission topic, you'll notice that, starting from this post, it's very difficult getting the TAS to sync. In fact, it doesn't even sync for the author of that TAS anymore, so I dare say that nobody can get the TAS to sync (which is a requirement for judging and publishing a movie).
The TAS in itself was well made. However, I didn't find it very entertaining to watch. Therefore, I'm going to vote No on entertainment. It can be published to the Vault, though.
The TAS in itself is pretty good, but it's pretty much the same thing over and over again. Therefore, I'm voting no on entertainment. It's good for the Vault.
Note to other encoders/publishers: I'll be publishing this one once it gets accepted.

So maybe it's on a per system basis?
