As an emulation issue? Or performance issue? =P

Personally; it's a performance issue. (It was running at full speed a month ago)

Sage advice from a friend of Jim: So put your tinfoil hat back in the closet, open your eyes to the truth, and realize that the government is in fact causing austismal cancer with it's 9/11 fluoride vaccinations of your water supply.

You saw the clue submission. Even board games can be improved.

Here's something I don't think we'll ever see in a TAS: Using a dual-loader cart's rom (like the dual-game smb/duck hunt carts) and jumping between games to bypass levels (sorta the way you jump between levels in mega man 2).

There's an SNES ROM floating around out there that has a very heavily-compressed RickRoll on it.

I await the day someone makes a NES rickroll. It will happen, I just know it... assuming space isn't a problem. How much space can the NES address?

http://www.youtube.com/Noxxa <dwangoAC> This is a TAS (...). Not suitable for all audiences. May cause undesirable side-effects. May contain emulator abuse. Emulator may be abusive. This product contains glitches known to the state of California to cause egg defects. <Masterjun> I'm just a guy arranging bits in a sequence which could potentially amuse other people looking at these bits <adelikat> In Oregon Trail, I sacrificed my own family to save time. In Star trek, I killed helpless comrades in escape pods to save time. Here, I kill my allies to save time. I think I need help.

This is getting completely off topic. Post about a particular game what you don't think you'll ever seen done inside it, giving people some ideas to think outside the box. Don't post about how you don't think you'll ever see Miyamoto TAS Tetris.

I don't think a Pokémon run will ever use a main battler infected with Pokérus.

I think Happylee will keep improving Super Mario Bros. until he gets sub-1 second, and then he'll start working on a time machine.

Any Soccer Game - Using the U.S. men's national team
Actually, the U.S. team in Nintendo World Cup has the most variety in that each member has a different super kick. They also have varied HP values and speeds. For the other teams, these variables are exactly the same for each member. However, the U.S. HP and speeds are used regardless of the team you select if you're playing Tournament Mode.

It's conceivable that a player would spend a small amount of time collecting an extra life to save time overall through death abuse. Can't think of an example, though. Another prediction: no one will ever use any of the three characters that are not Guy, in Final Fight 3. Not in a single-player run, at least.

I think we'll never see in a TAS:
    - Gau's father (Final Fantasy VI) - Edge throwing a spoon (Final Fantasy IV) - H weapon being fired (Contra III) - Getting hit by Gabby Jay (Super Punch Out!)
