No, the resolution limit is 100x100.

I actually agree with everything you just said. Arcade versions are usually superior to console ports in every respect, so they should naturally take the priority both when considering first-generation movies and improvements, just as per the current ROM region policy.

This submission is something I whipped up in a couple of days because I got tired of waiting for Phil and Genisto's SNES version of the game.
So, the TAS was supposed to be done on SNES, but it didn't happen.

Eh, ROM linking isn't allowed. Let the users figure out ROM problems by themselves, it's their responsibility.

Well, it almost seems as if inertia doesn't even apply to them, not to mention flying upside-down within an inch from the ground. What are they powered by?

Quite amazing what you can do with miniature helicopters: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gi7G-VzU2r4
What the shit. These RC helicopters seem to completely defenestrate the laws of physics. o_0

sound desyncs, though. this is the first time i've seen the audio get ahead ofthe video, though.
That might indicate that your CPU can't cope with the high bitrate and takes more time to decode the video than what is needed to decode audio. If the decoding filter isn't configured to skip frames that couldn't be decoded in time, you get audio ahead of the video.

Considering you don't kill that many enemies on your way, do you think a Hard mode run would save time? Since you have three otherwise unskippable cutscenes (about 45 seconds worth of them, actually) on your way, it might be well worth it.

I kinda think the tourists do know better when they're willing to tip even if they aren't required to by any social institution.

Actually, can't you just use this submission for generating the required save state? Then you could just link to it in the submission message and post what you've done to get the desired SRAM. It's a 100% safe proof of valid SRAM.

How is Super Metroid relevant to that at all?

Here's my attempt to solve the problem the easy way: http://tasvideos.org/576M.html?rev=8 Feel free to revert if you think it doesn't get the point across.

Any SM-related TAS activity from both me and Saturn also qualify.

I guess the safe way is to call him mr. Smith until he suggests the otherwise himself.

That's actually very cool of you. In the best possible sense.

Actually, if you want, any editor could add a link to that .m64 in the description of a 0-star run. It would only be fair to do that.

I don't see how accepting this movie is going to cause a giant uproar ala moozo°h but it's no big deal to me either.
No, obviously not a giant uproar. But it can easily be seen as a wormhole for drama-loving people using this accident as an argument in favor of accepting any other movie. Not letting the potential drama grow is probably a better thing than otherwise.

so the new run is going nowhere.
That's pretty pessimistic, eh.

that just makes it harder for the novice to submit ANOTHER poorly made but faster run, instead it forces someone to make a BETTER video to beat it.
I still don't understand how accepting a clearly suboptimal movie will force the next in line to be super-duper-optimal. What exactly will force the player to make a "BETTER" movie, and for that purpose, what constitutes a "BETTER" movie in the first place? If anything, accepting it would likely do the opposite. The site's standards so far have been to reject clearly improvable, lazily-made movies. I can see the reason for accepting it, what with it being twice faster than the published run, but doing so would compromise the site's standards in general. Even if the strategies were outdated, Guano's movie could at least show the competence of craft (that adelikat is looking for) more than what's described in the submission text. One could say it would solve most kinds of acceptance debates if you could just forget about the existence of the published movies, and judge the new ones in their own right.

By denying this run (even without watching it), we just open the door for someone else to submit a poorly made run.
I don't get the logic. The author here honestly admits he was lazy. So, if this run is accepted, the obvious deduction some other people may conceive is that you may be lazy and not care much about optimization, and still have your movie accepted, because this particular submission was accepted on these exact grounds.

Nice, I didn't know it could be done spending even less energy over the shinespark method: here is the same jump with gravity suit re-equipped as early as possible (costs one frame). Theoretically you can get rid of that frame, but I didn't bother.

And I found a faster way up lava lake for ingame.. should be obvious enough.
If you mean the gravity jump, it's pretty hard for me to believe it costs you less energy than a shinespark.
