Glad my fanboy lvls aren't THIS high

A/Vs: Game audio is fine; Commentary audio - no issues

Cheating: None found

Gameplay: I've seen this game ran a number of times, and the total lag in this game is asinine. The sheer amount of lag reduction strats needed to get this game look as fast as it is now is quite a feat. Each required character was used to its max necessary potential according to their strengths and usefulness on a per stage basis. Even bosses were done strategically well (that stage 4 boss fight was plain silly). All possible issues in the game were noted in the run comments as well as in the [hilarious] game commentary. Overall, it's a pretty good run that is worthy of an accept.

You know it's a classic when you see NES lag. There is quite a lot of it in this run. I imagine playing this game "normally" is not likely a pleasant experience.

Accept.

Also, surely there was an easier way to secure plutonium than have the player walk across several planes in mid-flight...
