Also, Shadow Warrior didn't go through for some reason sooo

 
Just watched the Ninja Gaiden relay race. Best race so far. Previous races you have someone in the lead for the last 20 minutes and wish for the comeback that never comes, this had 3(4?) comebacks.
 
Add to that the Ninja Gaiden race that might have been the most intense moment of the event.

I wish I watched it live.

Top tense moments I watched live were: 1) when the tetris become invisible in the credits section of TGM3 . 2) airplanes section in Battletoads co-op. 3) I wanna be the Boshy final boss
 
100% animal crossing? Jesus, that would take like 5 days. You have to get so many variations of items that seem like they're all up to RNG. I can't even imagine how that could be a run haha. Could be interesting for a standalone "marathon-type" race setting (not like AGDQ, more like an extra long SRL race event) as a one-off thing though.
 
This is dumb, seriously

Yeah. This is more suited for like bonus steam or those awkward middle of the night runs. This is when the MMX should have been, not as late as it was yesterday. People are like just settle in from work or school and whatnot, probably the best time for high traffic and gaining more donations. AC is just an odd choice for a prime timeslot like this. Weird.

Animal Crossing alternates between being my first or second favorite game of all time (guess the other from my avatar), but I think this run kind of misses what's appealing about Animal Crossing, at least to me.

Time zones, brah.

Though it's not really suitable for Europe either. Putting this run at midnight in between SOTN races and Yoshi's Island race... well, that was a terrible idea all around.

Yeah, but at least it's a interesting trick and it's not very long like FE was.
 

Metroidvania

People called Romanes they go the house?
At least this is not as long as the Fire Emblem block.

Fire Emblem at least was run by people who knew exactly what they needed to do to get optimal results given the vastness of the RNG potential.

It was interesting to find out how they found out about the dupe glitch, but on some level, it is less interesting to me when the game is absolutely broken, rather than merely exploited (granted, that distinction is largely personal preference)
