Available in 4 versions: low quality, normal quality, and 60fps high/insane quality. Author's comments: I'd like to thank all the various speed runners of this game that had an influence on me, and Kinuyo Yamashita for her classic compositions. Level 1(stages 1-3): Jumping into action, I sit through the prologue and quickly power up the vampire killer before heading into the castle...

![[movies]](/images/mediatype_movies.gif) | Chameleon Twist (N64) - Single-segment 100% 0:43:00 - David Gibbons - David 'marshmallow' Gibbons Speed run of Chameleon Twist collecting all 141 crowns, done on December 26 2004. Author's comments: Collecting all the crowns was both fun and irritating. This run could be done faster, and I had originally intended to redo it (with Davy, my hero) but unfortunately for all Chameleon Twist fans across the globe (that's both of you) I decided to keep this. It's good overall, but there are some embarassing moments in Bomb Land and the pool table in the Ghost Castle was just ridiculously slow (comb...

Available in five versions: low/normal quality DivX, and normal/high/low quality H.264 MPEG-4. Author's comments: This run went through quite some time [and changes] before being the finalized product you're [more than likely] downloading. The origin of this run dates back to June 2005, shortly after I completed the atrocious Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advance 3 SS in 2:19:XX...

Available in three versions: low quality, normal quality, and 60 fps high quality. Author's comments: Okay fine, I'll admit that this is an awful game, one that most people don't like or care about. Simply file this one away under "they said it couldn't be done." It's so hard to learn this game that most people won't even give it enough time to try and beat it...

![[movies]](/images/mediatype_movies.gif) | Deja Vu (NES) - 11:26 (US version, emulated speedrun) - Hans Olsson (aka. Walker Boh) A storybook game like Shadowgate and Uninvited.

This movie features ultrafast menu navigation, some luck manipulation and generally a very precise walkthrough doing only what is absolutely necessary.

Available in five versions: low/normal quality DivX, and normal/high/low quality H.264 MPEG-4. Author's comments: Here we go again! Just when I thought I was burned out on this game, I managed to pull it together and make some improvements. This run is 10 minutes faster than my previous effort. It contains roughly the same route, with some improved and/or more dangerous strategies... Keywords: Donkey Kong; Single-segment; Nintendo 64 Downloads: 13,994 Average rating: (1 review) |
![[movies]](/images/mediatype_movies.gif) | Donkey Kong Country 2 (SNES) - Single-segment 100% 1:33 - Derek Kisman - Derek 'SnapDragon' Kisman Single-segment 100% run of Donkey Kong Country 2 (the game calls it 102%) done in October 2001. Available in normal and low quality DivX, as well as original wmv file. Author's comments: Great quality. A great run (with 1 death that I really didn't deserve). This is a more difficult game than DKC1, but I think I've still come fairly close to the limit for a contiguous, no-save run. I doubt I could manage 0 deaths without a BFD-esque amount of effort...

Available in 320x240 and 640x480 versions. Timing note: Not timed consistantly with later runs. It included everything but loading screens, but it was shown that black screens before the loading screen comes up is also system-dependent. The difference is about two minutes in this case.
