Hyrule does not load instantly with a giant character and 2 cpus, thats what made it super obvious to me

and didnt have to kill himself to avoid crazy hand?????????

Is there any chance we could get another category on Speedrun.com, being Wii runs as well since they might have faster loading and the fact people can run it off a USB which DEFINITELY has faster loading

The very hard record as well also has faster loading speeds

it states on the rules it has to be on Gamecube US

Wii and Emulator both have different loading times

I feel dissapointed in the moderation of the melee speedrunning section on speedrun.com recently

An easy example of why im dissapointed if you look at this

http://www.speedrun.com/ssbm#Classic_-_Very_Easy

its clear that Lykon is using something that gives faster loading, there is no way that his time is 11 seconds faster than mine when I was playing for like 6 seconds max with Ganondorf with 1/2 second stage clears. Nearly every single stage in his video is slower than my PB.

His quality is really bad on his video and states that it is on US Gamecube but I fully don't believe this.

This isn't the first time this has happened too

I did a lot of full runs on emulator and got my time down to 4:55:38

Even if you guys have a sticky about emu I think you should consider this since its a really good run and I don't think anyone's beating it for a while :) it's my forth fully completed run with lots of failed runs due to troll RNG.

Im only running emu because my NTSC carts haven't arrived yet and PAL obviously sucks lol

Fresh file each run Hard Mode + 20 Turns + Bonuses Timing starts when you start the first level End timing on fadeout after coins, then the game is truly over

The run uses a lot of cool stalling AI strats, quick minigame strats etc :)

i think all runs should be on original gamecube imo

is anyone from gothenburg driving to ESA that could offer a lift to Skovde and maybe back? I'd pay towards petrol, train is around £30 and its only 1hour20mins each way
