Thanks for the clarification and the updates of the rules @Diesel_R8 it will be more easy to see if I did a PB or not from now. :) (and yeah, I will definitly try to improve thoes runs even if for now I think I will stay in the Easy mode, but I think in the near future (when I master this mode) I will try to get new times in the Normal mode too. :) )

Have a good day and thanks again for the update of the rules. ;)

GG for your WR, it was interesting to see (and moderate) your run. :)

GG for your WR, your run was very instructive to watch. :) (and very cool to moderate too. ^^)

Hello everyone, first of all, I hope you are fine and had a good week everyone. :)

I dunno if you are open to new category suggestions, but since I didn't found informations on this topic (and since this game doesn't have a Discord server where I can ask my question), I wanted to suggest a new category:

The Lucky Cat% (or Laser%, it depend on you):

The goal of the category is simple, get the Laser weapon as fast as possible. (the timer start at the beginning of the 1st level and end at the 1st frame of your plane obtaining the laser (when the word "Laser" appear on the bottem left part of the screen))

I used the IGT of the game in the version of Capcom Arcade Stadium to mesure my time.

And if you are ok for creating this new category, I would be happy to be the 1st one to submit a time for this new category:

I thought that this category could be interesting to speedrun since the Lucky Cat is a very rare item that appears randomely and teleport itself on the screen before dissapering, which could add an interestin challenge for this game and the speedun community around it. :)

What do you think of my proposition? Are you interested in the creation of a new category for this game?

Note: I don't know if the Lucky Cat appears on the NES version of the game so my initial suggestion work only for the Arcade version of the game, but if it also appears on NES, maybe we could extand the category idea so NES players could submit there run too. What do you think?

And, by waiting your answers regarding my category suggestion, I wish to everyone who read this message a good day, and a good weekend too. :)

Honestly I would be happy to be part of this Discord group if the project came to life one day. :) (so count me in as a member of it, when the Discord will be open and ready. ^^)

Thanks for your advices @Pengo5 :)

I will try to apply them in the future and after looking on all my previous runs done after submitting this one, none of them actually meet the requierements so I decided to delete them all. (except one run that I did on the world 1-1 because I got a medal for clearing the level in 13 seconds or less (and I thought it could be a proof for the verification, so that's why I submitted this one), it was the only run that I submitted before applying your advices)

So, from now I will try to apply your advices for my future submissions and I will try to zoom on the final timer when I will be able to speedrun this game in the future. :)

So, thanks for your advices and the verification too. :) (and sorry if my last submission that I just did didn't have the opportunity to apply your advices, the next ones will, I promise. :) )

Well, it took me some time (yeah, aproximatively... 2 years. xD) But I just send my last run to verification yesterday. ^^ (which means there 22 runs awaiting verification)

So, now I won't have anymore runs to submit to this leaderboard it's time for me to thanks somes persons here:

First of all, I would like to thanks the current moderation team @Acmlm @Willster & @bendersrus thanks for your work on this game, for verifing all thoes runs and for making the speedrun scene around this game alive. :) (and for the 7 Former WR I got on this game too. :) ) I would like to thanks also the formers moderator who were active on this game too (if there was former moderators), even if thoes persons aren't anymore, there were a part of this story and I would like to thanks them for being part of this journey.

Second, I would like to thanks @UlisesDev for running the game and congrats him for all thoes Final WR he manage to get, honestly, you were the closest runner I could considere as a rival (in the good way) and I hope our paths will cross again on another game, so I could try to beat your courses and set a better time than you this time. ;) (so if you planed to speedrun Shovel Knight: Specter of Torment (Any%), Super Smash Bros. Melee (10-Man Melee or Target Test (with Peach)) or Sonic Adventure 2: Battle (Iron Gate (Mission 1) or Prison Lane (Mission 1)) don't hesitate to pin me so I could prepare myself to challenge you for a friendly rematch. ^^)

And last but not least, I would like to thanks the developers behind this fun little game, so thank you NHN Corporation, thank you Line Corporation and, of course, thank you Nintendo for bringing this game to the comunity.

And thank you Speedrun.com to give to this game a whole new way of playing and enjoying the game. :)

And, that's all for me. :) Hope my 22 last runs will get verified soon and in any cases, I wish to everyone a good continuation in there speedrunning journey (and life too) and hope you will be able to get lots of WR in the future. :)

See ya everyone. :) (and fareweel Dr. Mario World, and thanks for the WR you gave to me. :) )

Oh ok, thanks for your answers. :)

Well, I hope my 3 last submitted runs will be verified soon. ^^

And in any cases, I wish you a good continuation in your speedrunning journey. :) (personally I will continue running Super Smash Bros. Melee and I will seriously start running the individual levels of Sonic Adventure 2: Battle, so I will have some new objectives personally. ^^ And you? Which games did you planned to run next? :) )

Hello everyone, it's actually my first post ever on this website. ^^

For the few persones who're weren't aware of the recent news about this game, Nintendo has officially ended their services on Nintendo 3DS and Wii U which mean that this game isn't avaliable to play since it's need thoes services to actually work.

That's also mean that everyone who have the current WR in any categories of this game could considere that they got a "Final WR" since it's impossible to emulate the game and since the game weren't ported to another plateform.

Personally I wanted to thanks the current moderator team @SkittlesCat (thanks for the verification of my last run. :) ) and @Jaypin88 :) But I also wanted to thanks all the former moderators who were part of the mod team and verified my previous runs. ^^

Finally, I also wanted to ask 2 last questions for the mod teams about my 3 last runs awaiting verification (all of them in the Free Play mode):

1- For my "[WR] Any% - Free Play" run, if I got more than 1 badge, could this run still be considered as a Any% run or should I had to submit this run into another category?

And 2- When we have to choose a date when we submitting the run, I actually put the date where the video were recorded, but since the run were made 1 or 2 years ago, I wanted to know, did the mod team recieve a notification of a run awating verification even if the date were years before? (I didn't know much about verification process and sometime it took me lot of time to submit a run sometime. ^^' )

And... That's it. :) Once again, I wanted to thanks you for all your work on this game and community, and I wanted to wish to everyone into this community a good continuation into there respective career and life too. :)

And farewell Nintendo Badge Arcade, you were a good little game where we came to waste money on little badges to customize our homescreen & You gave me good memories and I wanted to thanks you here for the fun time I had on this game. :)
