Yeah, that guy is pretty much the coolest guy ever. Even cooler than
the guy who beat SMB3 in 11 minutes.
Man,..I must be getting old..nowadays I commend myself for just beating some games..period.
but yet, beating games in less time than they were originally intended takes me back to the good ole NES days, when my nephew used to think he was so damn cool for using warps to skip through various worlds on Super Mario Brothers (1985).
I've seen a speed run where a guy did the entirety of Super Mario World(that's every level, including all the secret levels)in about 90 minutes or so. No link, sorry, it was on my friends hard drive.
Its things like this, that makes you take a step back and scratch your chin in confusion....especially taking into consideration that the Super NES was reknowned for having a rather slow processor. Did any of these kids in question do any type of technical modifications to the hardware to make it run faster?
