My improved version (994 frames faster) of the original movie. Going below 3 minutes might be possible with improved planning and better understanding of damage boosting.

Game-end glitch description

The glitch is performed in the "Area 1-1" portion of the 1st stage, during the transition off of the first elevator. While on the elevator, Down+A is held as you transition back up again from the bottom screen (RAM address: 0x200 to 0x00EC), causing your character to fall out-of-bounds into a glitched area of the map. Entering and landing in this area causes the game to execute the ending.

Noxxa: Judging.
Noxxa: Accepting as an improvement to the published movie.

Was usedpizza's pizza input used here by any chance?
Warning: When making decisions, I try to collect as much data as possible before actually deciding. I try to abstract away and see the principles behind real world events and people's opinions. I try to generalize them and turn into something clear and reusable. I hate depending on unpredictable and having to make lottery guesses. Any problem can be solved by systems thinking and acting.

Done. In the future, just write both names in the nickname field when you make your submission.
