I'd be careful with statements like that. A glitch is, by definition, an unintentional bug, and how would you know that Famtasia is totally bug-free? (Admittedly, technically, you could prove that the source code is correct, but that's neither really feasible not is it enough to conclude that the binary file is, too (as Ken Thompson demonstrated). And even if you verify the actual machine code as well, there's still the environment the program runs in, from libraries used to the OS down to the actual hardware it runs on.)

Because zoizite's run is notable for getting only one item (namely, the Maru Mari). This run is "just" a general speedrun without any constraints; the fact that it doesn't kill either miniboss is mostly to save time. Being able to show an interesting novelty is just a nice side-effect.

Now that would really be something worth watching... but somehow, I doubt that's what Arc meant. ^_~

I think the jumping's a bit overdone.

It's far from hopeless, I think. As for my own wishlist, that'd be: a) be as fast as possible b) be as entertaining as possible In short, a fusion between your and Genisto's run (speed) and Pom's run (entertainment value) would be ideal. ^^ N.B. that's not to say that your run wasn't entertaining, BTW.

"Mehrheit ist Mehrheit" (as Gerhard Schröder said), and faster is faster. Pom is more than welcome to come up with an equally fast (or even faster) one that looks nicer, of course. ^^ EDIT: is it actually faster, though? FCEU says it's 17997 frames, which is more than both your v2 run (17995) and Pom's run (17976). Am I missing something?

Not to mention that in the SMB1 case, any further improvement will probably feature some new tricks, which will also make it worth publishing even if the actual difference in time is not really noticeable.

Thanks! Pity about the rerecord count, though. Ah well.

What's the actual rerecord count, then? Also, can you download the VirtuaNES version anywhere?

Heh. ^^ Anyhow, I like it - I have a thing for those "achieve as little as possible and collect only what you really absolutely need" runs. ^^

I'm not sure about everyone else, but I at least didn't get a notification email for your above post (and thus didn't read it until now). o.o Ah well. *watches now*

*nods* That's what the info page for the game at TMK says:
Each time you beat World 8-4, the game will add a star to the SMB logo on the title screen. When you have eight stars, at the title screen hold A and press Start. You will be whisked away to World A-1. (You can accumulate a maximum of 24 stars, but only eight is needed to unlock Worlds A - D.)
And yes, It seems to be less tiresome in the SNES version:
To access World 9, you must get to World 8-4 without warping. Beat Bowser, and you'll go to World 9-1 with one life in reserve. If you beat 9-4, you'll start back at 9-1 (in Super Mario All-Stars' Lost Levels, after 9-4 you'll go to A-1).

Now that would be sweet! ^^

I agree with Viewer myself here. The run's good, no doubt about that, but the primary purpose of the site is to have enjoyable videos, and, well... this game just isn't.
