Obsoleting Movie
Published on 8/13/2004
Mega Man X2 makes a particularly interesting run as many of the weapons can actually be used in mobility, such as a grappling hook or even a weapon which can make enemies into platforms. The author takes special care to ensure that when there is a situation in which a weapon would help him progress quicker, he uses it.
In order to get the Shouryuken (flame uppercut) seen used towards the end of the movie, the author must first collect 100% of items, such as Heart Tanks, Sub Tanks, and Item Capsules. However, because these powerups are not far out of the way, and because the Shouryuken saves so much time later on, it turns out that this movie may also prove to be as fast as possible.

Many thanks to Boco for early route planning and glitch information!

Obsoleting Movie
Published on 7/16/2004
This game is about a schoolgirl with a bag of holding and a rubber fishing line setting out to rid the world of giant mutant fish.
Actually, it's more like a little-known Japanese wire-action platformer (like Bionic Commando or Ninja Five-O) with a small but rabid fan following. Like Ikaruga, the game is very easy to win, but very difficult to play. This video demonstrates one of the fastest paths to the ending, including quite a few almost impossible maneuvers - whether playing tool-assisted or not.

See the Umihara Kawase page for more information about this game.
Ps: If the SMV desyncs for you, first ensure you have the correct ROM and that you don't have sound disabled. If it still desyncs, ensure that you don't load the movie as soon as the emulator has started: give it a few seconds first.

Bisqwit: For extra fun, get your hands on this game and try playing it. You'll quickly learn what "almost impossible maneuvers" means :)

This video is almost a half minute improvement to the first version, due to competition between Blechy and Bob_Whoops.
