yea it says tool assisted meaning they run the emulation super slow to get perfect control and response and on top of that the guy uses save states so he can retry and get the perfect run.

in the end he merges all the video and there you have a perfect run.

There's at least a couple guys that are always on Gradius III and IV at the arcade and each run lasts a few hours apiece. Don't know how many times they loop it, but everytime I go by they have at least 10 ships in the top row.

Funny video tho.

And in 25:30. While it's pretty entertaining to watch, I don't see the point of making a 100% kill run with an emulator if you're not going to get absolutely every enemy. Most of those he missed could easily have been either killed or avoided altogether by taking a different route.

I didn't watch it - but it could be one of Tviks' many recordings. He did a few SNES runs for the NES superplay site.

That tool assisted replay isn't mine. The other with only speedups and e.laser is. And I can't believe that people still can't tell a tool-assisted replay from a real one. Besides I'm kinda regretting that I ever made that movie. Just because that one tool-assisted movie many ignorant people somehow think that all my other achievements are not legit.

I would be greatful if someone with the right knowledge could turn my real Gradius 3 Mame replay (speedups only) into an avi and send it to Youtube or somewhere else.

Same here. It's interesting to see just what is technically possible in these games, but that's about it.
No matter how good a game is, somebody will always hate it. No matter how bad a game is, somebody will always love it.
