SMK sounds interesting, and you should do it with 150CC
And Selda sounds fun too, but Setroid Zero Mission is also cool.
SMK seems to be the best choice from those, so go for it!
Damn this post looks like shit...
I believe that Donamer was working on links awakening. I still tell him he sucks though for not doing LADX, which would be FAR more entertaining, since its in colour. Zero Mission 9% could be interesting though.
I hear ya on this one. HLE emulators = bleh.
Well, I'd probably be able to do a reasonably good job on this, but there's that whole 'half the screen covered in memory values' thing. aswell as the fact of "would Bisqwit allow an exception for it?".
I'd rather see the allstars version too myself, but a Luigi run :D
If you do Link's Awakening, a 100% route already exists (talk to Tompa, there's even a vid of it floating around, and I can get it to you if you can't find it elsewhere). I'm mentioning this because you said you really like choosing routes and so forth, and this may factor in.
(not that you'll be forced to follow the route, but still)
I wouldn't mind ZM 100% even though some items are useless.. (The power bombs for example, what were they thinking? Seems like you barely use them, and you get them at the very end.)
There isn't really much point in a low% Zero Mission run. The route is basicly the exact same as the any% route and there isn't really any added "danger" by doing low%. As I don't get any energy tanks in my any% run anyways. The only real difference is you get less missles so boss fights are longer and you spend alot of time refilling before Mother Brain.
My main beef with SMK is that racing games often look similar to the console record counterparts. Plus, 1st place would yield the less-exciting weapons. But I've yet to really try it, so who knows. There's talk about it at its thread by others, so maybe someone else will beat me to it :)
I'm having a really hard time getting myself to start something. Life is getting busy at the moment, I may take a short break. I'll post here when I do start something, though. Thanks to everyone for the ideas!
<Swordless> Go hug a tree, you vegetarian (I bet you really are one)
I just watched your Super Metroid 100% run and now I would love to see you create a Super Metroid any% because I know with the improvements in your 100% run you could make a faster and better run than Terimakasih.
Just my $0.02 on the subject.
There are some extremely interesting ideas in the Mario Party topic in the n64 section, and nobody seems too interested in trying them out. You might take a peek in there to see if anything sparks your interest. The nice thing about the game from a TAS standpoint is the massive luck manipulation all over the place, and the fact that its not really very 3D, barring some of the minigames. But really, those are some good ideas they have going over there.
A few weeks ago a discovered a game for the NES called Moon Crystal. It's a neat platformer, reminiscent of Castlevania or Zelda 2, with a touch of Prince of Persia. It's pretty short too, so I think it would make a good run.

It depends on whether MAME is open source, and whether the DOS command lines will finally be rid of for an easy to use GUI, why? I'm LAZY.
Anyway, a TAS for Goemon's Great Adventure (perhaps abusing the 4 Player cheat) or Kirby's Dreamland 2 (Best ending). That would be nifty!
