I made a TAS of this game, just for fun. It turned out 2 min 3 sec faster than max's run. It is also faster than Apo123's WIP. I decided to not waste ammo, for the sake of the run looking less sloppy, even though it does waste some time at the end level count down. Much faster boss fights, some new strategies, killing aliens faster and optimized movements make up for the time saved. Here's the movie file if anyone is interested. The Genesis version of this game looks/sounds a lot better, so that's probably the version that should be TASed, which means I don't think I'll be submitting this.
What do you think about submitting it? I'll accept it to Vault or even Moons :)

SUBMIT PLS
I want all good TAS inside TASvideos, it's my motto. TAS i'm interested: Megaman series, specially the RPGs! Where is the mmbn1 all chips TAS we deserve? Where is the Command Mission TAS? i'm slowly moving away from TASing fighting games for speed, maybe it's time to start finding some entertainment value in TASing.

I'm a little confused why you ask for him to submit it 4 years after he finished it...
effort on the first draft means less effort on any draft thereafter - some loser

I'm a little confused how you missed a mass unrejection of movies rejected for boring game and acceptance of them to Vault.

I'm a little confused on what the mass un-rejection has to do with this particular movie, as it wasn't even published in the first place. Also, the mass un-rejection happened in late 2012, a year before he signed up to the forums.

My point is, it's is a clear Vault run, and it was not submitted back then because there was no Vault to accept it to. When the latter appeared, unrejecting of runs that could potentially be vaulted happened. In other words, if this run was submitted and rejected, it would already be published in Vault. Also, I don't understand what is wrong about asking for submitting an old completed movie.
