I was searching the forums and the movies list a while back and was kind of surprised that there wasn't anything on this game. So I've been working with this game quite a bit and am even more surprised after actually TASing it. Link to video I haven't seen very much talk anywhere about running this game (certainly not the GBA version) but I found a few neat things. For one thing there's a pretty nice damage glitch with the two Sentinel fights. This is especially apparent during the final boss fight. The first Sentinel fight basically involves (from what I can tell) stacking so much damage on the boss that the boss fight just shuts down. And when you get Nightcrawler the game basically stops being a platformer. Let me know if this game interests you all or if there's anything you've discovered. http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/17301525414792772
Somewhat damaged.

I've begun working with this game again using BizHawk 1.11.0 One thing I found in the process is that due to the more accurate nature of BizHawk's emulation I lost 191 frames during the loading screens before the first stage. Despite this I was able to squeeze 6 frames out of the first stage itself. http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/24248296849249841 The re-record count is fairly low due to using multiple instances of BizHawk to test out different strats - I like being able to look and compare things side-by-side as well as compare to the current publication. I plan on looking deeper into possible damage glitches (akin to the Sentinel boss fight) and I'd be interested in suggestions others may have.
