I haven't finished Super Metroid before (I always grew bored with it, to be honest. Perhaps when they release a Zero-Mission-esque version for the Nintendo DS?), but I guess I could give it a shot

There's such a double standard about religion in the modern world. Catholics can gather, wear white robes, and say "In nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti" and be considered normal.

But if my friends and I gather, wear black robes, and say  "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn", we're considered cultists.

I got a run done, here is the smv (emulator move file).

I decided against using frame advance and such things so this whole run is played at full speed, though with the help of rerecords of course. It looks pretty bad.

Emulator used: Snes9x-Improvement9.

Endtime 00:29 (00:29:37:26 to be exact) and 26 items collected. Time took to make, ~6-7 hours.

I dunno If I'll have time to convert it to .avi and upload it anywhere... We'll see.

I was checking out your previous runs, very impressive :D

I'm actually quite surprised at the route you took, because initially it looks as if it would take more time to go that way, but you flew through lol I cant wait to see the run you made specifically for the contest ^_^

I'll check your full smv when I get my computer back up and running (HDD issues; I should have it fixed tonight)

(GT kept erroring)

I gave up trying to skip torizo

don't know why it looks so !@#$% on googlevids this time, or why the sound went out of sync either..
here's the SMV if you want it

Ok, here is the run on google video.

Also, if you like the video be sure to check out my youtube channel for some much more technically impressive and visually pleasing runs.

Well good luck, it's not really easy. Like there is 0 pixels and 0 frames of margin of error... I mean even if you do it 100% right there is still only a 50% chance it will work because of randomness...And it is physically impossible without frame advance and practically impossible without a memory watcher. Just thought I'd let you know.

yeah, I tried a good 30 times in my run, I guess it would be a much more common trick if it were easier to do
I think I got pretty close to making it though, not bad for plain old slow down

I've got the next 2 days off work, gonna try and finish my run

and yah Cpadolf, stick around! we'll be sure to have more contests and you might like to contribute to a game here

I finished my run.
I don't have enough disk space on my computer or a fast enough internet connection to upload an actual video, so it's just
a Snes9x movie file.
This I pretty much my first speedrun ever so I made some weird choices, and my whole run is in 15 different files x_x.
I realized after I finished that it's a bit annoying to watch since you have to load a new movie file every 5 minutes or so,
it also increases the file size quite a bit >_> So I apologize for that.

Clear time:
00:50

Recorded with Snes9X v1.51, the one Takam linked to in this topic.
