I had started a test run of Asterix & Obelix, but soon realized that it would probably be quite boring if played for pure speed. Making the run entertaining could be done by collecting all 10 stars in all levels (which will cost time), or playing with both Asterix and Obelix (I started with this, but it's quite a lot of work...) 1 player test 2 player test

A 2 player run is always a good idea in my opinion.

I also don't know how to start smw files, but if you want to watch smv files, then you need Snes9x, which you can find for example in this thread Then just load the Asterix & Obelix rom and click on File -> Movie Play and select the .smv file

I think this game is quite a nice candidate for a 2-player 100% run -- collect every collectable item, defeat every single enemy which appears on screen, complete every bonus stage. Here's a small testrun for the first level: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dimBeM9HjwQ I think you can see quite clearly that 2 players will bring in a lot of action. This game will be very hard to TAS. Even in this seemingly straight-forward level there are a lot of difficult and non-trivial turn-arounds. And the bonus stages... They are about as complex for a TAS as solving the traveling salesman problem. EDIT: There is also a WIP for the GBA version of this game from Cloudragonz, for one player. Most levels seem to be identical in this game, but Asterix moves 10% faster, and there is no damage animation at all, and the cutscenes are shorter, and you can take a lot more damage. So for one player, the GBA version is the better choice.
