If this isn't the right forum for this, by all means, move it anywhere. I'm asking that others try to time-attack these because I was never good at doing them myself, and I'd love to see them done. So here's the list (All NES): - The Simpsons: Bart Meets Radioactive Man - Crash Test Dummies - Paperboy - Krusty's Fun House (This one killed my childhood :) ) - Captain Skyhawk - Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves - Dick Tracy - Adventures in the Magic Kingdom - Bill And Ted's Excellent Video Game Adventure - Who Framed Roger Rabbit? - Wayne's World - Gilligan's Island - Rampage (although it might suck watching after awhile :-/, so it's iffy ) If anyone even attempts to do any of these I thank you in advance. If you can get any done, I'll be very, very grateful :) mE

Moved to general, due to it not involving specific game planning. I had no idea what "leave shadow topic" meant so... it's there. I don't have much experience with those, but I could see Roger Rabbit being pretty good. Paperboy too, if you could pull off neat stunts. I can't say the same for magic kingdom- in between levels, didn't that involve crazy amounts of dialog, and walking around to get to the next place involving dialog?

Go to the NES games forum to see what a shadow topic is...

Sadly I can't see Krusty's Funhouse being very interesting either, you spend ALOT of time waiting for the stupid rats to walk to places. I sort of remember playing Dick Tracy when I was younger, it might make a good game for a run I think. Does Rampage even end? I never played very far into that game... Is Robin Hood that game which has like 3 levels? And each lasts about 5 seconds? Or am I thinking about a different game with fencing in it... For some reason I thought there was a Roger Rabbit movie, I guess not, from what I remember it would be pretty good.

You mean Who Framed Roger Rabbit? Based on the book Who Censored Roger Rabbit?

I tried a paperboy run, and it's really boring.

Robin Hood for the NES, there's fencing, a couple of other mini-game type scenes, and some maps that you walk around on. A run for this game might be 50% skipping text...maybe...

There's also Super Robin Hood, which is a platform game. It was one of four games on a cart released as "Quattro Adventure"... or something like that.

Stuff I'D still like to see includes: A full SMB2 run (SMB and SMB3 each have full runs, don't they?) Legacy of the Wizard (It'd take a lot of planning still...) Clash at Demonhead (Worst jumping ever) Guardian Legend (I only recently realized that THIS was the game from my childhood I was trying so hard to remember) Gargoyle's Quest II (Because Red Arrimer kicks ass) Athena (Because it's such an inane game) Mighty Bomb Jack (Because to this day, I STILL don't know how to properly play the thing) Jurassic Park (Any system, really. There's like five or six for NES/SNES/Genesis total) Genesis runs seem surprisingly few and far between, for some reason. Vectorman 1 and 2 Toejam and Earl 2 (Wasn't someone reworking 1?) Dynamite Headdy And for SNES games, I'd still like seeing Pilotwings, Spike McFang, and, of course, Zombies Ate My Neighbors. Because the SNES version has superior sound to the Genesis version.

Eh, I got to the very end and I couldn't figure out how to beat it >_< The movie wasn't that cool though. I think I have a link somewhere on the nes games forum though.

Adventures in magic kingdom is one of the worse games I've played. I thought about time attacking it but when I played it I realized it is to boring. Im not sure about Krustys Fun House either =/ It's a hard game but I think it could be a bit boring to watch after awhile. But I would surely watch it if anyone decides to do it ;)

NintendoRecords has a Magic Kingdom timeattack. Some room for improvement, I'm sure, but a boring game regardless. Guardian Legend, I fear, would be rather boring as well. A shame, because it's one of my favorite NES games. Agreed on Krusty's Fun House. If there was some way to speed things up in even the slightest way possible, ala Lemmings, then maybe. But as it is, no. Gargoyle's Quest 2, on the other hand, would be pretty cool from what I remember. Surprised nobody's done it yet. That Robin Hood NES game = no. Just, NO. Do check out Seanbaby.com for a hilarious review of it, though. Crash Test Dummies might be interesting because of your character's Maximum Retard Velocity. But then, I thought the same thing about Darkman. *shrug* I'm actually thinking about doing Wayne's World. I strongly feel that it may be both the worst NES game ever and the worst licensed game ever. It's short, though, so it'd be similar in spirit to the Dark Castle movie as this game is even more ridiculous than that one. -Josh
but then you take my 75 perchance chance of winning, if we was to go one-on-one, and then add 66 and two-thirds ch...percents...i got a 141 and two-thirds chance of winning at sacrifice

a legacy of the wizard movie would be absolutely insane
