I have only the physical version. Is it possible to install the game from cartridge it to my internal memory card?
I posted your concern on the dedicated DD discord, let's see what other runners think about this
hello, i am one of the moderator of the DD section. Finalizagames pointed me out this. I am not DD master system specialist, and do not know if it can be considered as a cheat. It does seem that his WR is run on Master System original software though, but there is nor formal proof.
If you and other runners of this version can define it is a cheat, please let me know and we will delete accordingly.
Hello,
cause the video links were not active anymore. I removed the videos from the leaderboard.
FYI, try to be more polite in your approach next time, like saying "hello" and asking gently to remove.
Thanks, Louis
As many games that are only runnable on emulators, and due to the higher risks of using emulateur instead of console hardwares, we strenghtened the rules allowing to submit a run on Toki (arcade version played mostly on mame):
- use of autofire is strictly forbidden
- need proof of run live: input mapper preferred but any proofs of streaming or run live (cam, live replays...) has to be provided
- speed of emulated game can be easily changed on emulators. Please use default 100% speed game or run could be rejected
Rules could be changed if the game would be available on console hardwares, but there is not yet any rumor of publishing this game on any console. A Toki Reboot is currently in development but we will update the serie with a new game/categorie when needed.
Thank you for your understanding and respect of these rules and enjoy running this fantastic game!
hi Apophis,
sincerely, i created this section but i do not want to become a dictator. I think it would make more sense to add a 1cc, i wonder if other arcade games have the same type of categories.
Inoticed too there was a switch version. Not sure how it is different from the rom version, but for sure it could be more fair to have a category on that platform. Running on Mame is always subject to doubt in cheating (i had cheating issues with other games categories with mame cheating, just a shame).
I also wonder if recording live (or proof of live recording) can be requested (video showing an input display for example)
Hello,
i need your advices, i have an headache. I "created" the Bad Dudes speedrun for the arcade version a couple of years ago. I have never been really interested in competing with other guys, so i just created this any% category without any rules (i basically did not even know there should be rules).
A few pople started to submit runs, i was just verifying them quickly without taking care in the runs themselves. I was just happy to see guys submitting runs on that amazing game.
The problem right now is that i am looking back at the quality of their runs, reviewing them with a second eye and i noticed that for 2runs of them, the guys are not beating the game with 1 credit. You could think that it sounds fair but in fact, the runners are just kick jumping all the way to the end of the stage, taking every damage, dying multiple times. This strategy does not make any sense to me and just destroy ALL the interest in running that game, its difficulty, its tough management of the life bar, the items... everything...
So i feel stuck with that. I think i should have strictered the rules to protect the quality of this speedrun leaderboard, but right now it is just desperate to step back. Should I simply add a new rule and reject non conform rules? Or create a 1 credit category?
Hello,
could not figure out to add an existing game to an existing serie. Could you please add Double Dragon advance to Double Dragon serie? Thanks!

Hi guys! Glad to see that the archive versions of ps4 and switch bring people to this game. I do think that playing DD on pc/emulators is a source of cheating, i had the issue with one guy upgrading the speed within mame, which could not be permitted. But the trilogy on pc and archive switch/ps4 bring more fairplay. Good luck with all your runs and dealing with lag on archive versions :)
I am in vacations, i just have access to my phone and can not create your desired categories. I just added uw99er as a moderator if he has time to do it.
Cheers,
Ps: twitter/discord me if needed, i do not have notifications on forums from speedrun.com, not sure why ?
Many other games have both emulators and consoles categories. Anyway emulators are always subjects to controversy, different speed or cheating for example, i can understand the category would not be created.
What i may suggest is already creating a ps4 version. That will definitely bring new people, even if it would be possibly a new version of the game.
As Duck Tales Remastered I think it will have his own leaderboard.
@kirkq "louiskanak: I'll switch the other guy to a super mod by discretion since it's a small game. " Yes, perfect, thanks ;)
Hello all, the moderator on the game "Kickmaster" on Nes seems inactive, could you please add us as moderators? if you can add louiskanak and Barrylesjambes as moderators, it would be great! Thanks for your help!
ALLO??? salut mon cher Sly, ca y est t as le WR sur ton GTA chinois? T as plus de twitter ou quoi? je ne te trouve plus T'as la plus belle page de speedruns de ce site, avec tant de jeux méconnus mais qui ont l'air bien craqués! et j adore la présentation de ta page twitch, merci pour ce moment! A bientot jeune innocent ;)
kirkq: thanks for your lights about this, i was actually thinking that we could add a platform for a game, as it could be seen as a different leaderboard on the same game page. In my case, i was wrong, as gameplay is totally different from arcade version to Nes/wiivc one. Therefore I asked for a brand new Game Request, and by the way i will recontact the other moderators to take me off as moderator of the Nes double dragon section ;) Thanks again for your help!
