In addition to seconding jlun2's comments on this, I'd like to say thanks for leaving out the 99 lives. I'm quickly becoming a "TAS purist" when it comes to the entertainment factor-- just show me the run without jumping around like a loon, especially when most of the tricks are really well established in other TASes.
Not to pick on the Mario World TAS currently on the workbench, but SMW TASes seem to be among the worst offenders. I'm kind of tired of the inverted swimming glitch, item juggling, and flying acrobatics. They were all really cool when they were first discovered/implemented, but now they're overused and just distracting.
Can we have a subcategory or forum post for entertaining crap that's been "retired" or is otherwise unsuitable for a TAS?
