This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see http://tasvideos.org/3232M.html
The Legend of Zelda (ゼルダの伝説) is an adventure game that needs no introduction to most NES players. It is a large game that normally takes days to beat, but at TASVideos, we often reduce games to the minimum time necessary in order to complete them. Its a secret to everybody.
This is the seventh iteration of this TAS, 20.6 seconds faster than the previous run. The improvements are largely due to better luck manipulation and some major route changes that lead to Link staying away from gambling. For more details, read the submission comments or the authors subtitles on the encodes.")

Metroid: Zero Mission is a retelling of the original Metroids story with a couple of new plot twists and updated gameplay.
This movie improves on the previous attempt by the same author by 28 in-game seconds and 34 seconds of real time. The time saved comes from more optimized movements and a few minor tricks, but mainly from a greater understanding of RNG in the game.
The in-game clear time is 0:20:59. The item collection rate is 20%.")
![[TAS] SNES Mega Man X password glitch by FractalFusion in 16:56.88](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/I-A-kSXFvuM/hqdefault.jpg "[TAS] SNES Mega Man X password glitch by FractalFusion in 16:56.88
This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see http://tasvideos.org/2059M.html
Since moving to the SNES 16-bit land, Mega Man has taken the secret identity X, but everyone knows its still him because hes the only blue robot who shoots three pellets at a time at other robots, steals their weapons, and zips through walls.
FractalFusion plays this game a bit differently than usual. He abuses a failed password in order to obtain all weapons before the intro stage; this also causes all 8 Mavericks to be flagged as beaten, so the run proceeds directly to the Sigma stages after the intro stage.
Because the failed password does not include Xs armor upgrades and the Maverick stages are never entered, the dash boots (normally impossible to avoid) are never collected, meaning that Mega Man X spends the entire run walking through the stages; this provides more opportunities for entertainment than usual. For more information, read the authors comments.")

By not having the Falcon Armor as usual, X faces a challenge where he needs to save the day by defeating Nightmare inventor Gate which at the end was manipulated by Sigma (surprise).
Unarmored X means that X will not be able to charge acquired weapons, have no air mobility (aka Air Dash), receive a lot more damage and consume more weapon energy.

Imagine Mega Man as an RPG set in an alternate universe where he and his fellow robots arent robots but computer programs, and you end up with this series - but even this unique take on the premise is no barrier to continuing TASVideos long history of quality Mega Man runs.
If you care to know more about the run, be sure to read the extremely long set of authors comments (which comprise, in fact, the longest such set of comments on the site - you have been warned). We also have a run for the second game in the series.")
![[TAS WIPs Comparison] Mega Man Zero 2 100% - v2 (Rolanmen1 & McBobX) vs v1 (Rolanmen1)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KL0u_qmJVRc/hqdefault.jpg "[TAS WIPs Comparison] Mega Man Zero 2 100% - v2 (Rolanmen1 & McBobX) vs v1 (Rolanmen1)
This is a TAS WIPs Comparison made between the new TAS WIP and the previous one that was never published. This comparison started as a way to see how much we have improved over my old WIP, it is very old and many improvements have been made. Take into consideration that the old TAS was made in VisualBoyAdvance and the new one in BizHawk which implements different emulation cores, this results in very small differences in lag frames differences and cutscenes in particular.
For more technical details, follow this link: http://tasvideos.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=465841#465841
The format is the following:
On each screen, on the top you will see the timer both in time and frames (it resets in every stage). Below the TAS authors. In the middle you get the difference per section and in total (left vs right). In each section (determined by me) whoever gets first will pause until the other one catchs up so most of the time they are in sync for a better viewing, at this point is when the difference in time are calculated. Audio is also split up, on your left speaker/headphone you will hear the left screen and vice-versa.
These are the TASes being compared:

Mega Man 2 is a game that hardly needs any introduction. This movie plays Rockman 2, the Japanese version, which is essentially Mega Man 2 in difficult mode.
This is an improvement of 6.24 seconds over the previous run through a variety of small tweaks.
See Rockman Tricks and the submission message for in-depth explanation and answers to various questions regarding this movie.
You can also see this run played back on a real NES with an input display!
