Super Metroid Speed Booster - short charge Megeg1 2010-06-24 | If it uploads this time, I will explain what's going on in the video through annotations, of which I will put after the video is posted.
Super Metroid Underwater Dynamics Megeg1 2010-10-10 | I will make annotations after the initial posting of this video explaining what's going on! This video covers some things you can do in Super Metroid while underwater with/out certain items. This video is not including morphball as a main technique. (It's already dealt with in another one of my videos.) The video size among other things are slightly different from my other videos.
Super Metroid (same side) Wall Jump Megeg1 2010-09-12 | After I finish adding annotations to the Wall Jump video I'll work on this one. This video requires a basic understanding of how wall jumping works - (To make it easier to understand, not really neccasary I suppose). This is harder to do than a normal wall jump, and can take a few tries to actually do even one.
Super Metroid Wall Jump Megeg1 2010-09-12 | Sometime after the intial posting of this video I will apply anotations to it and explain how to perform the wall jump and some smaller applications. I'll demonstrate the same side wall jump in another, much shorter video after this.
Super Metroid X-ray Climb Megeg1 2010-04-22 | I will apply the annotations a few hours after the posting. 3rd try posting here we go! I will explain how to preform the "X-ray Climb" through annotations.
Super Metroid Jumping through ceilings Megeg1 2010-04-20 | This video will give a brief description of how jumping works in "Super Metroid." Afterwhich I will explain how to jump UP through thin floors. This video will be under constrcution after the actual posting because I will type in annotations throughout the video with the explainations. This trick can save you time when going up to the Gravity Suit; after the Phantoon battle. Also, you can use this to get past some areas in Maridia while doing a suitless run. You can also use this trick to get the Spring Ball without the Space Jump. Those examples being the main use, however, other applications do exist.
Super Metroid Corner Jump aka Flatley Jump Megeg1 2009-12-29 | Details of the video will be in the video, through annotations. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ I don't like the title because it's a lie. What do I mean? I put "corner jump aka flatley jump" because some people might recognize what it means. But I learned this technique and all that are currently known, and some still unknown, before I even knew what a tas is. I would much prefer the name of this little skill as something that's a bit more descriptive; such as, Slide Jump! or Falling Jump... as a side note I'm finding these title increasingly disappointing It's the equivalent of saying I've discovered vs. I've invented, but with no real meaning - true irony.
Super Metroid speed booster, morphball, and water Megeg1 2009-12-27 | This video is heavily dependant on annotations, so if you don't see them they're probably switched off. To turn them on, or off, move your cursor over the litte triangle at the bottom right of a youtube video then click on the "annotations" button. It should turn red if it was off. Red means on, grey means off. About the video With the turn around effect, and patience, you will be able to get the first missle expansion in Maridia (suitless - One of three ways that I know of). These techniques aren't reeeally needed... then again... neither is walljumping... What I mean is; it's a good idea to have these things in your arsenal. This can also be done on console; I, myself, did not use any enhancements for my gameplay, slowdowns/advancedframerates in particular. However, I did use savestates and movie splicing... To save on time and to work around a buggy recorder. Thanks for watching and reading!
Super Metroid early super missile area with mockball Megeg1 2009-12-25 | The infamous mockball area everyone does. I just did it a little differently is all. (No tools used) Here's a tutorial of how to do the mockball http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x4BjCyqB4Rs
Super Metroid Mockball Megeg1 2009-12-25 | The mockball technique is really useful in alot of situations, and is just plain out fun to do! I will add, or attempt to add, annotations into the video with a very detailed explanation on how to succesfully nail this thing. What the mockball offers is Samus's running speed in the alternate form of the morphball. This can be used to gain access to early items, such as; super missile, reserve tanks, energy tanks, missles, ice beam... to name a few. You can also have the same "blue shadow" effect as with the speed boosters, if you have them equiped. That on it's own has many many applications. With a little practice you'll have this skill down in no time!
Super Metroid Edgehogging Megeg1 2009-12-24 | A viewable example of the visability of "Edgehogging." By turning around at the right moment, Samus will continue to fall with full speed. That is, she will not be slowed down by "touching" the floor, because she's moveing 'through' the collapsing bricks. You are also able to use this on other things besides crumbeling bricks, such as enemies attacks/body damage (any type of damage really, but kind of pointless if your already next to the ground, that is, it's good for keeping your momentum when falling.) You can even move through other types of bricks that are being destroyed. This has became a common practice in the world of Super Metroid TAS's... But does work on the console version aswell (that is, the real Super Nintendo); but probably will never be as well defined as done on computers; because of slow-downs, advanced frame rates, and savestates that are found in the programs. TAS means Tool Assisted Speedrun. Their website, which you can find lots of information on the manner and meaning, can be found at http://tasvideos.org They also host alot of their websites videos here at YouTube; http://www.youtube.com/user/OfficialT... Though I like the name "Free falling" better, thanks for watching/reading!
Super Metroid Shoulder pumping Megeg1 2009-12-23 | A viewable example of the visability of "Shoulder pumping." By pushing the L or R button's in movement, Samus will move slgihtly faster (by 1 pixel I believe). This has became a common practice in the world of Super Metroid TAS's... But does work on the console version aswell (that is, the real Super Nintendo); but probably will never be as well defined as done on computers; because of slow-downs, advanced frame rates, and savestates that are found in the programs. TAS means Tool Assisted Speedrun. Their website, which you can find lots of information on the manner and meaning, can be found at http://tasvideos.org They also host alot of their websites videos here at YouTube; http://www.youtube.com/user/OfficialTASVideos Though I like the name "Arm pumping" better, thanks for watching/reading!
