SMB3, every level. 45 minutes.

Also SMB1 speed game, and trick game, BUT REALIZE THIS:
There's an error with the files names. Load a SMB rom, and then load the video with the filename that DOES NOT MATCH.

If you got a capture device then record yourself 'cause I wanna see that.

Oh crap... Topics like this were popping up all over GameFAQs, but I never expected one to pop up HERE. Sheesh, it's just a bunch of save/load tricks, don'tcha know.

And I liked the Rockman 2 video better anyway.

...OHH GOD. FERNEAU IS RIGHT.

I looked more closely at the video when I noticed that THE TIMER FLUCTUATES.

Eh. It looks possible, anyway.

Ya I don't know about the SMB3 one, but in the SMB "tricks" video the player doesn't do anything that can't be replicated on a NES.

edit: if anyone knows of any Gauntlet I & II playthrough videos post links here please (preferably arcade but I'll take what I can get)

Yeah I can beat smb1 in about 7 min. It's not that hard. The levels are designed to be run through at full speed.

Actually, I think that's a glitch in the game itself. The timer just slows down when you run for some reason.

Oh, and after I saw the Super Mario Bros. trick video, I went back and played the game myself to see if I could jump off the sides of pipes as in the video. I managed to do it, but only once.
