ScotlandThis is not to be patched onto a standard SMB ROM, rather a VS SMB ROM in the ".nes" file format.
Looking at the hardware present on the FDS2NES it has the same hardware as the regular FDS RAM adapter, I would not have any objections to approving this however this will require discussion with other moderators.
That can work, if you have an actual NES, however 1008 was referring to the actual FDS RAM adapter which looks like this 
There is a new alternative to the FDSStick which is being mass produced by various companies called the FDSKey, uses a MicroSD card to read FDS images to the RAM adapter.
As Wolf said, no we do not allow reproduction cartridges. Our testing shows that most sold by individuals are inaccurate compared to the disk version, even with simple gameplay elements such as the red piranha plants and springs. If you wish to play Lost Levels on NES then you either purchase a Everdrive N8 (or clone).
This just sounds like a more complicated version of both quests.
Can confirm, I used to use a KrzysioCart until I purchased an EverDrive, Pellsson 5.6 works as expected on it.
Hey!
Unfortunately I don't know of a place for high quality controllers however if you are a DIY sort, you can buy replacement rubber membranes and that may assist with your dropped A presses. Websites such as ZedLabz, Console5 and AliExpress will all have these parts readily available, though do note you will need a PH1 screwdriver, and be careful not to strip the screws.
If you have any other questions please let me know!
No. The emulator inside of Animal Crossing has no left+right handling, and with the GameCube controller you are able to input left+right at the same time, which is not possible on an unmodified OEM NES controller.
Periwinkle is right, though you may want consider the following, and do a lot of practice using the practice ROM by pellsson:
-
Do a short jump from pipe to the platform, don't do it late though because you want to minimise the time you are in the air to gain running speed ASAP. Ideally a one-frame jump on Frame 138 will work (D/5 flashing), but 137 (B/3 flashing) or 136 (A/2 flashing) 2-framers and 135 3-framers (F/7 flashing) also work.
-
Don't jump excessively high during the actual turnaround, the less time you are in the air the more time you can potentially save, but be careful not to jump too low and land on the backlip of the pipe when doing the turnaround jump as it can throw off your slowdown muscle memory.
-
Don't scroll the screen too far, ideally if you get the optimal jump timing at the start you can get 357 with 5 pixels to spare.
-
When trying to get up onto the pipe, land early as you are able to gain a bit of running speed and save a frame.
The original tutorial by Kosmic is still a very good resource for teaching 8-4 turnaround room.
If you have any other questions, feel free to ask! We'll be happy to answer.
Hi there, if you check out this page on TASVideos.org, this has publication history for all publishes Tool Assisted Speedruns of Super Mario Bros from 2003 to now. If you click on a specific publication you can see what emulator was used at the time, e.g. Famtasia 5.1 for Bisqwit's 5:15.65 TAS from 2003.
Firstly, you cannot submit this run to any leaderboard as they are all for RTA submissions, secondly this isn't the "TAS WR" (which shouldn't even be a term IMO, TAS's are not a competitive environment they are a collaborative environment), as Bruhmoment and SMBistic have already published a 4:54.964 Pacifist TAS to YouTube:
Yea apologies about that, the rules didn't make it clear that netplay is considered OK as we already do have submissions which use NSO for netplay.
We're not adding it sorry, it's way too similar to any% and warpless to warrant addition.
No, it must be the original FDS version of The Lost Levels. you can play the FDS version using an emulator, or Everdrive if you do not have access to the original disk or a virtual console re-release.
We don't allow mGBA or the GBA core for BizHawk currently, that may change if there's enough demand and if the rest of mod team is on board with having it.
Regarding previous GBA runs done on emulator, this was during a time where we would allow any emulator under the sun, including unknown emulators running in a custom executable, and terribly inaccurate ones such as VirtuaNES.
I personally don't see a need to add a GBA emulator personally as at that point, the NES emulators are a far greater choice with a faster refresh rate than GBA and less inherent input lag than mGBA (in my experience).
Thread Locked, @GeometryDashFan I am not banning GameSecrets purely over this, that would be absurd. Grow up and stop being rude towards others.
yes, using a black and white crt is ok for submissions, we have had submissions done on them before.
