How about completing Mega Man 2 in 30 minutes? The player loses health few times but does everything as fast as possible. Those crazy Japanese.

But man, these games sure brought some childhood memories to my mind. Heh, I even remembered how I showed one particular scene from Mega Man 2 to my grandmother. About 13 years has passed since and I now just suddenly remembered it as I watched the video.

I saw my friend do it in 15 minutes, while not as impressive, also consider he hadn't played the game in 10 years.

But that Tetris Video of the Japanese champion is much more impressive in my opinion. The game was Tetris the Absolute Grandmaster Plus IIRC.

OMFG!

The fact that he could play Tetris at that speed was fucking incredible. But playing for something ludicrously long like 8 minutes, while scoring amazing numbers of Tetrises...oh man...

The SMB3 site says 'Access Forbidden'. Any other place to get it from?

Damn, that's fast. It must require incredible reaction time and no room for error.

What got me about that is not only does he rarely get hit, but he exploits every glitch in the game, and doesn't even miss. I about crapped my pants when I saw him beat Quick Man's stage without the Time Stopper.

The server for the Megaman link has an IP lockout for non-Japanese users. Just find an open Japanese proxy server and connect through that to fool it. It's kind of slow, though.

How about someone just gives it to me via AIM?

Yeah I read that before(though through a second hand source...him using save states....didn't know he used it frame by frame), but it's nice to see him fess up, but now just wondering what the hell(2 years?!!)

Very true...and nuts to boot(pretty much these videos fall into the old Fighting game vids wherein you see some guy pull off a 65+ hit combo in SFA3.

Just plain nuts, but always fun to watch.

I didn't see anyone reply to this topic for a couple days so I took down the video. Besides if you look on google there are about 50 sites that have the video to DL.

But if you want I'll reupload it.

No, the fact he played the game with an emulator running it in a frame-by-frame mode, saving after every frame and reloading when he made a mistake. The video is all those ~20,000 frames recombined into full-speed footage.

It's a bit dissapointing that it wasn't done in a single go or in realtime, but then again I initially suspected it was faked. There are some insanely-good Japanese gamers out there, but that was a little too extreme.

ShinjiGohan · Post by **ShinjiGohan** » 2003-12-14 06:48pm

Even so, that took him a long time to play. With at least 19,000 frames, that being played 1 fps, would mean that assuming he played it for 5 hous at least.

Also, even if he "cheated", he still knew by heart the locations of all those canon balls. their location and the place that they'd be (even predicting when some would even be fired.

Yes indeed, the time and effort he put into making this video and memorizing level layouts and enemy behavior alone makes it impressive. It still doesn't chance the fact that it was jaw-droppingly awesome as hell to watch, either.
