Sometimes, when there's lag, a keypress won't register. By managing lag in each individual game with perfect precision you can do that thing I described above with the start button. But that's just scratching the surface.<br /><br />You can easily use the slide to have Mega Man move in opposing directions in different games, since it's just Down+A.<br /><br />All the tricks are thoroughly explained in the submission page at TASVideos.org<br /><br />Also, this was done using an emulator with re-recording capabilities (it means you can undo mistakes with ease while recording) and frame advance (so you can play frame by frame).GeminiSainthttp://www.rphaven.org/gsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-2019314883130248002009-09-17T23:23:35.540-05:002009-09-17T23:23:35.540-05:00Don't believe it either, pay attention to when...Don't believe it either, pay attention to when he switch weapons. If he truely using the same controller input, then when you hit Start/Select, it should pause and bring up the weapon select screen for ALL four games. However, his video shows him switching weapons one game at a time, and didn't affect any other games that's still playing. Unless he somehow assigned a unique weapon select button to each game, then I don't think he can pull that one off.VigaMannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-79772953149034417232009-09-17T15:26:03.934-05:002009-09-17T15:26:03.934-05:00^

I don't think from what I see at least that theres one controller running all 4 games at once. And if there is, its heavily altered, you can even see in MM5 or one of them he rapid fires 3 shots, such that they are nearly touching(can only be done with some type of turbo) yet the other 3 screens show regular fire?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4080026879350344019.post-17779692123038005332009-09-17T09:21:56.601-05:002009-09-17T09:21:56.601-05:00One, that wasn't by FractalFusion, that was by...One, that wasn't by FractalFusion, that was by Baxter & AngerFist.
