	Metroid Prime (GCN) - Hard 1:24 - Benjamin Feng - Benjamin 'Ekarderif' Feng Speed run of Metroid Prime on hard mode in 19 segments, completed on November 11 2004. Author's comments: My original speed run was supposed to be a 100% Radix killer, but after recording over one of my segments it completely fell apart.

Available in four versions: low/normal quality DivX, and high/insane quality H.264 MPEG-4.

Author's comments: I got motivated doing a 22% game on hard mode just becouse it was never done before on the pal version.

	Metroid Prime 2: Echoes (GCN) - Single-segment hard mode 2:24 - Kim Siafa - Kim 'Silent echo' Siafa Single-segment speed run of Metroid Prime 2: Echoes on hard mode done on December 21 2005. Available in low and normal quality. Author's comments: This a hard mode any% run completed in one go, without loading and without dying. The route I used in this run isn't the same as the one I used in the normal mode SS any% run. I defeat Amorbis and I grab dark suit in this run. It is possible to complete a hard SS any% run without the dark suit but you need too many energy tanks to survive against the ...

Available in three versions: low quality, normal quality, and high quality. Author's comments: Alright, first off, there are some people I would like to thank.

Available in three versions: low quality, normal quality, and 60fps high quality. Author's comments: First of all, I'd like to thank Scarlet for making the route up in the first place. I basically copied her route, exactly. There were some new tricks that have been discovered since then, but a lot of time it was just walljumping in different places and falling less (which was difficu...

	Metroid Zero Mission (GBA) - Hard 100% 1:04:44 - 'Red Scarlet' - 'Red Scarlet' 100% speed run of Metroid Zero Mission on hard mode in 15 segments, completed on March 11 2004. Was the world record until May 1 2004. Author's comments: Hey here's my 1:04:44, it is a little bit different from the 1:11:10, mainly in the approach to the route; the route taken is not very different between each run. Quite a number of changes were the result of suggestions from other players at the ZM gf board... Keywords: Metroid Zero Mission; 100%; Game Boy Advance; Hard mode Downloads: 6,209
	Metroid Zero Mission (GBA) - Hard 100% 1:11:10 - 'Red Scarlet' - 'Red Scarlet' 100% speed run of Metroid Zero Mission on hard mode in 10 segments, completed on February 22 2004. Was the world record until March 11 2004. Author's comments: This run is, that I'm aware of, the current fastest 100% hard for Zero Mission. But of course, since the game is still relatively new, it is far from optimized, and not flawless, either. I know of a couple things that I would do differently my next time through, and am still not very sure if the route I take is the best or not...

	Metroid Zero Mission (GBA) - Hard 10% 0:45:42 - Andrew Bolton - Andrew 'ajbolt89' Bolton Low% speed run of Metroid Zero Mission on Hard mode in 10 segments, completed on 4 December 2005. Available in five versions: normal/low quality DivX, and normal/high/low quality H.264 MPEG-4. Author's comments: Introduction: Ekarderif from M2K2 recently started recording a technical demo of a 9% Hard run of this game. Watching the first few segments, I was initially rather put out, mostly because I felt I could never do any of the tricks he could and that people wouldn't appreciate cart runs an...

	Metroid Zero Mission (GBA) - Hard 10% 0:49:41 - Andrew Bolton - Andrew 'ajbolt89' Bolton Low% speed run of Metroid Zero Mission on Hard mode in 17 segments, completed on April 11 2004. Author's comments: This run is different from the last one in the approach to the route. Instead of going to get Varia suit, and then going and killing Kraid first, I did neither and instead went to Ridley first. There are a few added tricks here and there, and I feel that I could probably bring it down to 00:48:xx, but right now I'm kinda getting tired of these runs...

Available in three versions: low quality, normal quality, and 60 fps high quality. Author's comments: Route help/credit goes to Radix, who basically told me flat out what would be the best way to go about doing this would be. The main differences in this run and the Normal mode run, are that 1) I did Kraid first... Keywords: Metroid Zero Mission; Hard mode; any%; Game Boy Advance Downloads: 5,149

Available in five versions: low/normal quality DivX, and normal/high/low quality H.264 MPEG-4. Author's comments: -First, I'd like to dedicate this run to my cat, Spot, who passed away a couple of days before I recorded this run from Feline Leukemia Virus (quite the oxymoron, isn't it?). He sat on top of my chair on numerous occasions to watch me get frustrated at the game's randomization 'featu...
