- narcodis, on 08/21/2008, -5/+195hey, 2004 called. they want to show you this exact video.
- vondrak, on 08/21/2008, -4/+140Not to ruin the magic, but it's emulator assisted.
Originally the video said that in the beginning. Its still impressive, but not realistic. - BradOFarrell, on 08/21/2008, -1/+104hey guys check out this dancing baby animation.
- inactive, on 08/21/2008, -3/+65Digg, where old memes go to die.
- cryonix, on 08/21/2008, -2/+51Emulator assisted, sure. I see that. however I have done a few of these runs on a NES. One solid run of perfection through the whole game? hell no. I would like to see a time attack of the whole game... that ***** is hard. Requires pausing the game and turning the TV off over night hoping your mom doesn't turn it off while cleaning... that sucked.
- inactive, on 08/21/2008, -10/+56I've tried playing Mario Bros 3 recently. That game is hard!
- Lith25, on 08/21/2008, -16/+56I don't care what anyone else thinks; this is art.
- phaseblue, on 08/21/2008, -1/+32That, and they stitch together video clips of segments they've "perfected." Still cool, in its own very different sort of way. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool-assisted_speedru ...
- CaviMike, on 08/21/2008, -1/+27That's what I miss about video games. They're not challenging anymore, they're just cool looking.
- Saulidus, on 08/21/2008, -6/+31this is so ***** old AND it's an assisted run,
welcome to the internet - ryansimbalist, on 08/21/2008, -2/+26Get the 'Warp Whistle' Jimmy!
- h4mx0r, on 08/21/2008, -0/+19and the ones that are hard... are too ***** hard.
It's hard to achieve that perfect balance nowadays while trying to stay ahead of the competition :( - synep, on 08/21/2008, -9/+27Your ability to see things on the internet before me is truly astounding. You sir, are a truly a man among men.
- brakzilla, on 08/21/2008, -1/+17Hi this is your AOL support, please give us your password so that we can update your account
- FiP0, on 08/21/2008, -1/+17Some people inability to search for duplicate before posting (as a courtesy) is what amazes me.
- s0nicfreak, on 08/21/2008, -0/+15You cheap *****.
- inactive, on 08/21/2008, -12/+24old but awesome
- shutaro, on 08/21/2008, -1/+12Why so cereal?

- ABEL3616, on 08/22/2008, -0/+9Everything on ebaumsworld is stolen...by ebaumsworld ( really...no joke... )
- Petrie, on 08/21/2008, -0/+9Dugg for the truth
- hammerpants, on 08/21/2008, -1/+9You've inspired me to get my girlfriend a membership to the Pirate Bay for her birthday.
- boydrew, on 08/21/2008, -0/+8its not the video that made you feel inadequate.....
- DyceFreak, on 08/21/2008, -0/+8LOOKS LIKE WE'VE RUN OUT OF INTERNET TO DIGG
- SDNick484, on 08/22/2008, -0/+8It might seem hard at first, but after you get use to it, it becomes a breeze. The controls on that game are borderline perfect (extremely tight), there's virtually no cheap deaths. Although I'm sure I'm biased having grown up on that game.
- peaceninja, on 08/21/2008, -0/+7THAT'S THE MAGIC FLUTE, USE IT USE IT IT OPENS THE WARP!
-annoying girl from the wizard
8:08 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XO9UWFSkJl4&feature ... - jkr801, on 08/21/2008, -0/+7dude battletoads and bubblebobble (the ending) is hard as *****
- inactive, on 08/21/2008, -0/+6I start-a trippin' balls-a
- OutrightLie, on 08/21/2008, -0/+6Such a 12 year old girl.
- therightclique, on 08/21/2008, -1/+7not as old as that ***** joke, however.
- narcodis, on 08/22/2008, -0/+5This is 'Tool-Assisted' gaming. The idea behind it is to play through a game 100% perfectly with the fastest time possible, using savestates and a speed modulation to perfect the video. Simply playing through the game is easy. This game was probably played at around a fifth the actual gameplay speed when it was recorded, if not slower. The difficulty doesn't lie in just playing through the game, it lies in doing everything absolutely perfect, and making it look really cool.
It's simply for entertainment, and considered to be somewhat of an art by it's enthusiasts.

- FreddieD, on 08/21/2008, -5/+10While you're on the phone with them, ask them what REALLY happened with Ohio in the election. Thanks!
- boydrew, on 08/21/2008, -0/+5and I'm sure you had so many better things to do
- Darkaged, on 08/21/2008, -0/+5Mail-In rebates.
- decker12, on 08/21/2008, -10/+15Uhhh, this is the same video from FIVE ***** years ago? Great find, poster.
- CaviMike, on 08/21/2008, -2/+7You mean come to get resurrected. I know all your base is gonna show up again any day now...
- enantiodromia, on 08/21/2008, -0/+4that's nothing. I once beat this game in 11 HOURS.
- inactive, on 08/21/2008, -2/+6Aww that's a shame. What do they do? Slow it down?
- acid_jazz, on 08/22/2008, -0/+4Oh yeah, well, the Jerk Store called, they're running out of YOU!
- bejayel, on 08/21/2008, -1/+5by not watching videos you have probably seen over 9000 times by now.
- vondrak, on 08/22/2008, -0/+4These are two different videos.
The one you linked to looks more legit. - snareguy17, on 08/21/2008, -6/+10I hear being the first comment on your new submissions is cool.
- inactive, on 08/21/2008, -7/+11I think it's good that videos from the beginning of the Internet make the front page of Digg.
.... this is pretty cool though - Rage67, on 08/21/2008, -4/+8it should also be in a museum...
//it's old - Markpdotcom, on 08/21/2008, -1/+4It was on Digg a couple of weeks ago!
- NeoCortex, on 08/22/2008, -1/+4Hey, a meme haz killed two of my friends when it set them up the bomb.
Leave memes alone! - SDNick484, on 08/22/2008, -0/+3Definitely, any veteran of that game can tell something is up because the ghost ship never appears on their map (it's suppose to appear every 80,000 points). My personal best using whistles is a little over 20 minutes (without whistles it's 2 hours 50 mins), and what they do on some of those ships on world 8 is amazing. It's definitely not entirely legit, but still very impressive.
