EDIT: As of February 15th, 2024, this no longer stands as the fastest time as Riddler has beaten this run back with a 4:32 using the Bow route.
You can watch the run here, massive congrats to him: youtube.com/watch?v=S80FeCS5XMo
*Old description:*
This run currently stands as the fastest Link's Awakening DX has been beaten without the use of Arbitrary Code Execution, improving the previous best time by merely 4 frames, held by Riddler. That one Octorok will haunt my dreams, but as far as the Ocarina route with Deathl Skip goes this is still pretty solid.
If you're looking to watch a run of the 'de facto' fastest completion of the game through the use of a Credits Warp with Arbitrary Code Execution, refer to this video: youtu.be/oU9nY-3UBBI
Timing starts on selecting a file.
Timing ends at the top of the final staircase when the screen has faded completely to white.

Achieved on 2021-12-18.

Retime: 4:34.033

Timing starts on selecting a file. Timing ends at the top of the final staircase when the screen has faded completely to white. Exact time: 41:47.817
Note that Warpless refers to prohibiting exploits such as Screen Warping and Wrong Warping, rather than the fast travelling warps in the overworld which are considered fair game.
The run itself was very solid overall until I sadly lost a ton of time during the final boss due to a combination of bad luck and poor execution. Will improve at some point.
On the positive side however, this is my first personal best achieved on real hardware, being played with Game Boy Interface using a 1.0 Japanese cartridge. A long term goal of mine will be to update all of my old speedrunning times to be performed on console rather than emulator, though this is largely ambitious and will likely take a long time to fullfil.
I hope youll enjoy despite the noticable dip in quality.")
