Prove Wikipedia wrong
  • Emulator used: FCEUX 2.3.0

Comments

There are plenty of secrets in this game that you need Items to get. This is not one of them! The stage could be faster if I used them anyway, but I feel that's against the spirit of this challenge. Which is fine, because I don't have access to them anyway.
Why is the rerecord count so low? I stole inputs from myself. I'm actually surprised I managed to pump it as high as 265! I guess it was from lag reduction in the screen wrap section (which is very RNG-dependent) and optimizing the final ladder grab.
Samsara: okay do this page next - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool-assisted_speedrun
Samsara: what is THIS then???

im sorry but i cant accept these blatant false lies about wikipedia on my https tool assisted speedrun Videos dot org!!! get outta here!!!
at least make yourself useful and prove that the page on samsara is wrong about it being some kind of buddhism thing and it should actually be my life story!!!

I love all that fancy TASing to get to the spot, just to make a regular jump anyone could do. Climatic-anti-climatic ending. Love it.

Inb4 someone goes to fix the Wikipedia page before this movie gets judged. This would be the ultimate troll.

No worries, we can always pull up revision links, which are permanent. (The relevant text is below the image just under the header titled "Gameplay".)

You're not kidding. This is not my first edit skirmish. Apparently the article on red-black trees needs to be a fully valid piece of C software with bits of Wikipedia as comments.

This is a very specific kind of motivated, high-effort spite that warms my heart. I especially love how Megaman comes to a dead halt after arriving the ladder like 'that's right bitch'. No celebration, no wiggle, just cold hard facts TASed as fast as possible.
