Excellent TAS! I especially liked 19:16, I think it's a good demonstration of how much foresight and planning goes into it. JUST enough energy to avoid using the reserve tank, which would have taken more time... going to get enough energy for a safer buffer would have taken more time as well. So this was very carefully calculated.

It's a technique in the game called a Crystal Flash. It's done by using a power bomb, hold down, the fire button, L and R at the same time. You also have to have an extra 10 missiles, supers and powerbombs, with less then 50 energy left. Kraid was killed so fast because of the Plasma beam, which you normally shouldn't have at this point.

Well, you could definitely get down there and it's possible to get back to the space colony, both require a certain trick to do so (X-Ray Visor to get down to where Mother Brain is, Time/Space Beam (a function of the Var Beam) on a certain door to get back to space colony). But getting back up after tearing Mother Brain a new one would be a real trick. Still, I'm sure it's possible, just not sure how.

TsunamiSilverDragon the best part of such a run would be: in the beginning, mother brain kills the giant metroid. in the end, we see ridley carrying a container with a small metroid in it away... this would be the end of the story, suggesting the metroids aren't extinct after all. imagine Nintendo packed in a secret ending to anyone who pulled this off!!!!!
@TsunamiSilverDragon

Well, it's called Metroid. I'm willing to bet, no matter what, the Metroids are ALWAYS going to be around for some reason or another. From what I know about them, they can survive in space and are asexual so if there's even just one around and it some how ends up becoming a Queen, then it's easily possible that one in some distant planet on the far side of the universe at least is recreating the Metroid race start to thrive again. Anything is possible, literally.
@brianbernstein3826
10 жыл бұрын
I always wanted a story in which it became discovered during the game that Zebes wasn't a planet but a living breathing thing, and the Metroids were like its immune system. Even after being destroyed in Super Metroid, Zebes appears again in another place in the universe because Metroids were brought back by the spate pirates from an earlier time (using time travel) to restore the injured Zebes to normal. So Samus must venture into the past and destroy the space pirates there... remember that Kraid and Ridley are essentially dinosaurs, so it would make sense that they were from the past, experiments by the space pirates on dinosaurs or something.
@0m3g45n1p3r4lph4

actually, due to the level design and code of the game, that would be impossible, since the game places you at ceres first, and mother brain is impossible to reach without defeating the four big bosses. so 'reverse boss order' only refers to the big bosses. minibosses and final bosses are excluded

Imagine the game as an animal whose meat you eat, alright?You're used to skin it, clean it, prepare it and cook it. The TAS is the equivalent of gutting the animal clean with strokes so fast you never thought possible, taking organs you didn't even know existed from it, cooking them with a death-defying stunt over molten lava and serving them up in a burger.Which, to your initial dismay, is delicious.

There is more to TAS then just that. There's a lot of work that's put into completing one. This project had 161,190 re-record count (how many times he loaded a state.) The pure patience of watching it and such slow speeds Understanding the workings of the SNES and Super Metroid itself. Figuring out what would result the highest amount of frames saved, and what to sacrifice to save time later. I can't comment for the creators but runs like this can take months using years of knowledge.
