This is the Super Adapter-less run which Gigafrost didn't want to spend more time trying out. The belief in getting Super Adapter was that while you lost time collecting the pieces, you'd gain time fighting Shade Man with it and at the various places where there's large pits or spiked floors you'd use it to get over. If you opt to collect Rush Jet instead, that turns out not to be true. So yeah.
SNES9X for the emulator. 1.43+ to be more exact. I recorded like half of it with WIP so you're going to want to check WIP timing thing.
For programming errors, Bass lets you hit him twice quickly as the last two hits, and in Junk Man's stage I took some damage right as I entered the door out of the elevator which let me get some more horizontal distance as the door was closing. There was also this weird glitch in Burst Man's stage, where I destroy the body of that robot baddie, yet it doesn't disappear; however I could slide through as if it wasn't there so it didn't affect anything *shrug*.
Tried for quickest completion. No warps or passwords. Take damage quite a bit, so I don't waste time fighting some baddies or so I can get closer to bosses to destroy them quicker.
Luck's manipulated a lot, more than you'd think you'd need to. Keeping baddies from dropping life/item energy refills, getting bosses to cooperate, etc.
This submission skips the one (of eleven) Dr. Light meeting that the game allows you to skip. Same thing otherwise.
Anyway, enjoy!

Bisqwit: Good job, and a rather surprising deed. Queueing for encoding.

K, fixed. Despite slicing out about 680 frames right in the middle of the movie, the RNG picked the same things afterwards, which I wasn't expecting. Weird.

I'm not going to bother watching it again (already watched your 39:06), so you get an easy yes vote from me. It was incredibly well done with creative weapon usage. I was wondering, which Dr. Light meeting do you skip?

The one after the Robot Museum where he says, "Dr. Wily's robots are rampaging the city. Get going," or something like that.

I am honestly shocked that hexing like that worked. As for the movie itself, bravo!

Mega Man really should learn how to jump higher. Dr. Light might have to pull another ace out of his sleeve to let him.. Anyways, a very good run by Tinister. Can only hope for more runs to come. YES vote.

Dr. Light's idea of an "ace out of his sleeve" is apparently giving his creation a robot dog with a springboard in its back. Putting the springs in the creation itself? Bah, that's the work of a mad scientist. That's why we have Spring Man.

So, now it is almost exactly a minute faster than my run. Cool. That worked out interestingly. It's great that the hex editting worked. :) Naturally, I voted yes. :)

Red hot. I'm amused by Mega Man's leading questions regarding the weapons he picks up. It's like he's trying to jog the old doc's memory, make him feel useful. Dr. Light: "The Freeze Cracker fires ice...that cracks!" Mega Man: "It sure does, doc. It sure does."

The Scorch Wheel has got to be the most brain-dead conversation. "The Scorch Wheel creates a... uh... burning wheel... doesn't it?" "Yes! And it... uh... hm, what does fire do again... oh yeah! And it will burn the things it touches."

For those who might be interested, this movie has been discussed recently here... (in Japanese) http://douga.tk/item/38 Though it might all just be about BitTorrent problems.
