Here’s the research I did and sent to Kelsy for his video. I don’t know if I’ll have the skill to go the distance anymore, but will have to lay down attempts in the future when I get a chance. Hope it helps you. This was based off the 2 videos that were available of people going all the way - just not sure if they were legit or save stated.

Up to level 45 - you can exclusively use hard hit, but may want to mix in some softer ones, particularly in RNG hell.

Level 30 - AI jump. Before this is was all training wheels, you will need to start dodging, but only when your he CPU has you backpedaling, otherwise full offensive unless you lose rhythm.

Level 46 - AI jump. Start with hard hit (RNG luck) need to start using softer hits. Once soft hit lands, can switch back to hard hits in rhythm. If you lose rhythm at any point, you need to dodge CPU attack first and get back to rhythm.

Round 56 - AI jump. Soft hit will be your main offense. Retire the hard hit - it’s too slow and will be almost always be dodged. Further, retire the fist attack, you will exclusively dodge and counter attack with a quick hit. You may be able to squeak one in, but risky.

Round 66 - Final AI jump. All risk should be removed. You will start every fight with a dodge and priced to counter attack with a quick hit.

That’s it without knowing the coding involved which may allow manipulations with police and flower pots - these may be pattern or static time based. I didn’t get that deep into the research. :)

I am curious if there is a buffer strat or manipulation that hat can be done like Mike Tyson’s Punch Out.

I’m working on beating every game and once I got to the 50’s I was obliterated, but I’ve been basically doing it blind. I’ve seen 3 videos of people making it that far, but One is just a copy of Neneiki’s one and I don’t know if Kelsy uses save states. Sent a text to find out.

Could we add a section for completing or 100% for beating level 138 (D8)? I think it would be much more challenging and impressive to earn the title. I think this would be a 20-25 minute run.

Oh and this is Gold. I just beat that "record" with a 22:37. I hope they can reevaluate the password system.

Oh brother. Submitted the run and checked the rules. Whoops. I’m completing a season so I used a password to get to the next game; one of the rules is no passwords. 🙄. Fair enough, there may be ways to cheat, but what a kick in the shorts. 😃

EDIT - Never mind, you have to pull up the game first. (Facepalm). Thanks. :)

I don’t have that option. Wish I could add a pic here, but top right has an hourglass for pending actions (none), messages (none), Notifications (None), and finally my profile name which also doesn’t have any submission options.

Hi, longtime casual follower and currently working through the NES library. I think I accidentally broke the Bases Loaded WR, but not sure how to submit a run - couldn’t find in FAQ. Time is 23:21 as best I can figure.

I posted the link below, uploading to YouTube as well. Any help would be great! Thanks!
