Many years ago, there were two different TASes that used very different strategies and both got 0:19, so I set out to beat both of them with this TAS. The final decimal is 18.73, and I don't think 0:17 is possible.
Using 2.4 and the correct cutscene, a guard is lured to open both back doors, and then to also pull a Grenade to be used for two of the cameras. Full speed is also charged like normal for the start, but the timing of it is such that full speed is only reached after turning around to avoid unnecessarily running in the wrong direction. The first pause doesn't take place until up to the glass doors so that full speed is maintained for much longer. From there, the rest of the objectives are finished and a lot of nice guard boosts are received.
This was quite a bit more difficult to make than it may look. The Grenade throw has to carefully load the back side so it doesn't fall into the void, and also land in a very precise spot to blow up both cameras. The third camera is also shot through the backside and into the lens since the timing of the cutscene results in it completely facing away when getting to it. The rest of the challenge is getting nice guard luck.
Really happy with the result and to improve over the two very ancient TASes from well over a decade ago!

After picking away at every detail on this level, I managed to get a 14.95, leaving very little leeway! 2.X makes the start much faster, the box boost gives a slightly more direct line, the left route is a bit faster than the right route, and I also got a guard boost to eek out the last few frames. Really happy with this one!")

In this TAS, DK hops across vines on the first frame possible, while Wario does so on the last frame possible. However, there is no time save to this because the vines are based on cycles, demonstrating its far more important to simply make successful jumps. There can also be cases where skipping a vine also doesnt save any time, depending on if its possible to jump to the next one earlier.
The first player who lands on the final platform is the winner, or if its a tie, a randomly selected player is declared the winner.")

Nunof Yerbizness informed me of a softlock in this microgame on the hard difficulty by hitting multiple blue platforms in a row while avoid red ones. With some timing and calculations, I was able to make this TAS by making a very tight jump to skip two red platforms. One excess blue plays the game much slower than normal, while two excess blues decrease the speed and gravity so much that you get stuck at the top.
Once in this state, you can neither win nor lose, and your only option is to quit out. Very cool!")

Optimizing Silly Screws is simply just mashing and not overshooting when you would be able to jump across. However, there is a small quirk where its slightly faster to overshoot when mashing B, and then slowing down with A, as it starts the turn-around animation sooner. When done perfectly, it saves 5 frames compared to only mashing B.
In this TAS, DK plays as fast as possible, while Wario plays as fast as possible without the turn-around trick.")

Pro Curling has some interesting mechanics to it. You can simply hold A to both buffer and automatically sweep, making execution very easy, with each sweep taking 12 frames. Many rounds are also trivial to complete by simply holding A to buffer a specific amount of sweeps. Some rounds will require performing the last sweep a bit later as the later you sweep, the less distance the stone travels.
What makes 38 the maximum score is that as the game gets faster, theres not enough time to both move the stone far enough and to make it stop in time. The round after 36 is only possible since it can be done with just one sweep, but the two rounds before and after require two sweeps and dont have enough time to stop in the ring.")
