[TAS] NES Mega Man 3 by Pike & Tiancaiwhr in

Ойындар

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/2439M
TAS originally published on 2013-08-07
Mega Man 3 (USAのロックマン3) is the first game in the Mega Man / Rockman series to introduce sliding (though the ability to charge the Mega Buster would have to wait until game 4). It also introduced Rush the robotic dog, who provides the abilities of Rush Coil, Rush Marine, and Rush Jet. Furthermore, after you beat the 8 robot masters, the game makes you revisit modified versions of four stages to fight the Doc Robots, who imitate the robot masters from Mega Man 2. This set a precedent in the Mega Man series to have additional stages between the main robot masters and Dr. Wily's fortress.
This run completes the game about 00:20.62 seconds faster than the previous movie ( tasvideos.org/1150M ) thanks to a new route, more glitches, and better optimization.
This run was console verified using micro500's TASLink replay device ( • TASBot plays Rockman (... ) (with a window mode of 3.5 ms).

    Top Man's stage always cracked me up because of how obvious it was that they ran out of ideas. "Uhh, what else can we do with tops? OK screw it, giant cats and a bunch of jungle textures and stadium lights."

    due to the robot masters being fan submissions, the developers often just made levels and then assigned robot masters to them with minor changes made to fit them more. ever notice how heat man's stage is essentially just a sewer?

    The fastest time I beat in my own Speedrun was like a low 44 minutes this was when I have the weird space jump glitch and the up climbing motion was very slow when it happened to me that’s why I ended up beating it quickly in 44 minutes. Update: After not speedrunning Mega Man 3 for a long time I now beat my old record and now my fastest time is now 42:57 which is my new fastest time.

    You do realize the 6502 is both the main CPU AND the sound chip/CPU? It’s not like the Mega Drive where you can make another microprocessor the sound CPU (that being the Z80). The NES was extremely limited in general. Even bigger games like Battletoads is susceptible to massive performance issues, no matter how impressive it is.

    Speedruners try to cut down on lag where they can through gameplay. Mario 64 runs typically adjust the camera on dire dire docks because of this reason since the submarine causes lag. You can still see lag on top man's stage when more than one of the Met dozens spawn, they just kill most things before they cause lag
