Superfast Mario Bros. is a romhack of the original Super Mario Bros. game that can only be described as a chaotic experience. The game speed has been jacked up to ludicrous levels; the frame rule is now 1 frame instead of 21, and transitions are instant. And despite all that, the romhack is surprisingly playable, albeit barely. Not that it matters in a TAS setting, that is.
eien86 and Denial140 improve the previous movie by 1.13 seconds, thanks to better optimisation as well as new tricks.

WARNING: This hack can be very glitchy visually and occasionally have moments of flashing lights that may be uncomfortable to some viewers.

Watch this run being played back on a real console.
Superfast Mario Bros. is a romhack of the original Super Mario Bros. game which can only be described as chaotic experience. The game speed has been jacked up extremely high, as well as framerules being reduced to 1 frame rather than 21, transitions are instant, and yet the game is still somehow playable. Not that it matters in a TAS setting that is.
eien86 improves on the previous run by 4 seconds thanks to a couple of new strategies and the use of a program called JaffarPlus, which found lots of optimizations.
