This actually left me pretty surprised, because I wasn't aware you could get a P-Wing in World 1 before, this looks pretty good I'd say.
So, I don't know, what exactly triggers this mushroom house to appear anyway?

Is this really so big of an issue?
What about the dozens of people who don't have any avatar whatsoever?
And why am I derailing this topic even further?
Either way, Luigi SMA 100% run, I'm all for it.

If it's open-source, it should be possible to add frame-advance and more save state slots, right?
If I recall correctly, the main problem with C64 emulation was that it was difficult to verify the ROM was good. I don't know how crippling that is of a problem, but neither do I know how to fix this.
Still, I'd love to see C64 TASing become possible at some point. (And all other Home computers for that matter)

One of the most treasured games of my childhood, seeing how the PSX version apparently isn't emulatable yet, there's no good Jaguar Emulator at the moment, the GBA version butchered the game and makes your ears bleed and apparent desync issues with the Saturn version, with DOS emulation possible now, maybe this game might become possible.
So my question is: Is Rayman and its various spinoffs comptabile with JPC-rr? I'd love to see/do a TAS of this game, because it certainly seems entertaining enough.
Also sorry if yet another thread about the same game is redundant, but, eh, it's a different platform now, isn't it?

I am negative towards any real adventure game, such as Full Throttle. While usually great games, they are horribly unsuited for speed running.
Agreed. Frame perfect mouse clicking just isn't that very interesting to watch.
You could still do it for the sake of seeing how quick the game can be completed.
Of course, there may be the possibility for some break that'll let you complete the game very quickly or glitch it out or something else.

Well, I was wondering about more advanced FPSs such as Unreal or Half-Life. (Then again, Half-Life has a pretty impressive semi-assisted speedrun on SDA).
Would those be even possible to emulate using JPC-rr?

I think this site has a serious lack of FPSs (really, I wonder why Doom SNES never had been run), but now, this might become possible.
I doubt hardware acceleration is possible though.

The problem for me is that I don't know anything about the game, so for me, it looks like this could also've been done by a very skilled player.
The later stages got more interesting as they've got more difficult and so, ultimately, the run warrants a yes vote from me.

Super Mario Bros 2j Allstars by any chance?
Still, video games aren't the most accurate when it comes to the laws of physics. Or geography. Or any laws, so, if there are games where italian plumbers can jump multiple times their own height in a surreal landscape made up of mushrooms and bricks, what is the big deal with wrap-around JRPG maps?
