I don't have Gens and I don't even want it, but if your run can be improved in a title screen (by being frame perfect) it's obsolete.
And because there isn't a run of Shinobi III yet, doesn't mean your can be sloppy. I don't want to offend you, but I doubt it's not even close to perfect.
well I'm very surprised about this frame-perfect thing ! O_o
Well I have finally made a complete run of Shinobi III with the tool-assisted stuff of the emu by playing all through the game at a speed of 50% for 47 re-records !
That already makes the TAS obsolete. We use frame advance and thousands of rerecords to make things as accurate as possible.
Take this as constructive criticism and redo your whole runs using frame advance and loads of rerecords to shave off every frame possible.
I don't understand ! Why didn't you take a look first before judging it obsolete ?? It doesn't make sense !! It's all about speed and frame-perfect ?!
I read here http://tasvideos.org/Rules.html that a TAS movie must be real, interesting and beating some records. I'm sorry but except the lenght of my replay I never saw somewhere a run of shinobi III with conditions like all enemies killed, maximum score, no use of shurikens, no damage taken, improved techniques against bosses, shinobi and perfect bonus in all stages, etc ...
It looks like you reject my run ONLY for the low re-records and moreover without watching it !!!! Very strange !

The conditions of this run are the same that in my first post however there is some notes:
- in stage 5 there is the famous place with the bomb in the box to break in order to progress in the game. This place is possible to reach but impossible to get out. Instead of using one shuriken I used the "kariu ninjitsu" which will make me lose the 50000 pts of "perfect bonus" (even if I used a shuriken instead of the ninjitsu this bonus is impossible to have at the end of this stage due to the box) and the 15000 pts of "no ninjitsu bonus" (5000 pts x 3) !! So you will note this is better to use a ninjitsu instead of a shuriken because I will obtain the 30000 pts of "shinobi bonus" !
- in the labyrinth of stage 6 I get through all the rooms in order to have the maximum score. If you know a little bit this game, doing all the rooms will make you redoing some rooms with the return of enemies previously killed. So I decided to show you all the rooms completed at least once and when I was doing a same one I avoid the enemies and don't get again the bonuses in the boxes. This "negative" point in the movie is compensated/balanced by showing you how to perfectly avoid enemies in each room !
- in the begining of stage 7 I used 10 shurikens in order to defeat the 5 great laser-beams (2 pow-shurikens each cannon) because they are impossible to beat with a slash or a kick. I made this choice because it's 1000 pts for each cannon and moreover using shurikens doesn't affect the score due to the fact that in this last stage you don't have the bonus points like in the other 6 stages. However apart the begining I complete the whole stage with the main conditions of the run (no shuriken, ninjitsu, etc ...) with a good show-time during the last boss !
In conclusion the time of this run is about 49 minutes and can be considered too long but don't forget that I have killed ALL the enemies of the game, with no damage, with some new tricks never seen before against bosses/enemies and all of this to obtain a maximum score ! So enjoy the movie and tell me your opinions !! ^_~
