Metroid by metroidmcfly in 11:26 - SGDQ2019

all right so it looks like everything is just about set up for the metroid run so everybody enjoy this should be amazing [Applause] alright welcome back guys again be playing Metroid probably needs no introduction very well known game we did have a change on the couch so cypher and welcome and again in the middle here we have MC era nice and Apollo to to 237 over there on the left so first I want to before we start the run give a quick shout out to this crowd and everybody else in the nes retro community I mean you guys all these people man that's awesome tonight especially being early the morning I appreciate you being it's almost 5:00 a.m. local time everybody watching at home as well so we'll go ahead and do a countdown for this one so 3 2 1 go so after that fantastic Ptolemies here on couldn't have asked for anything better let's hope this one goes just as nice we're gonna start with what you what should do I guess when you start in metroid is just collect the morphing ball we're gonna use this to do some screen wrapping this route has been showing off it's been around for i guess about two years now if I remember right if we just call it crate first basically in this game you need to they usually go and collect a bunch of other stuff but we're gonna go and do the screen wrap to immediately head to kraid's lair without having bombs to get there the way that I suppose they wanted you to so there's gonna be some some you know just going through the walls and all that and I'll rely on these guys to kind of explain that while I focus but the gist is basically we want to try to go to crate as soon as we can because he gives us 75 missiles for defeated him both mini-bosses actually do that and so with that we won't actually have to collect any missile expansions so we dropped in there do a couple more screen wraps here I'm you would think you would take an elevator but this is the next best thing so the positioning on these is really important to get exactly where you want to be it's a little scary a little bit of a reset point here if you get just slightly off you do you will get trapped in those walls and not be able to get out there's a there's gonna be quite a few moments in this game where things could go wrong it's a very this is a very that any percent is very scary to do live and just like solemn Ischia but this man's the one for the job it's gonna jump a bunch of times here to pull our screen back up get into the position I want to be in and then creates room is just below there's a missile door that you know usually need to take out to get in there but what I'm gonna try to do is get myself in there just right and take a damage boost from this enemy that will spawn and we'll cut right into the door [Music] it's got to grab the seats Hank dodging all the projectile then ease a little kill him it he's got it Thank you Thank You Dana Thank You dammit because there's the subpixel thing that you have to worry about trying to grab that eat Hank but he he pulled it all fall asleep here you got this is why metrid McFly is met relate McFly right here yeah um I'm a his fuzzy need on the crate here a lot he has 96 HP each shot does one he's mashing select right now very yeah all right so this is the trick called up a this is actually a built-in functionality into the game really what you do is you pause on the player one controller and then using a second controller that I have here you just press the up and a on it and what it does is it prompts your password and then you can use you just hit start to basically just continue from that point it's actually existing some other games as well such as Legend of Zelda and it basically just puts you as if you just entered a password it's gonna start you at an elevator with your 30 energy as this game is infamously known for but you can see that we have the 75 missiles and that's what's important because in this any percent run really what we want to do is just get into Torian as fast as we can and so that means everything goes the screen wrapping the up a all that and like I said killing a mini-boss getting 75 missiles is obviously much quicker than going around collecting expansions so we're actually not gonna collect anything else other than the ice beam and I'm walking that way right now so if you want to read a few donations this would be a good time absolutely I have $5 from GF wheeler good morning from Cardiff fell asleep watching minish cap last night and woke up to shouts of Thank You Dana coming from my iPad this metroid run should be awesome looking forward to everything else coming this week thank you I have $10 here from Knight wig what do you use to identify yourself on the subway a metro ID kind of pushing it kind of pushing $10 from Sammy 36 finally time for the metroid run after that great Solomon's key I'm even more excited so far so good I mean a lot of the risk was upfront and then once we get closer to Torian that's where it's gonna get a little scary again probably get one or two more yeah sure thing I have $20 here from prolix what Metroid McFly has done for Metroid speedrunning really impresses me so I had to recognize his talent by donating to the cause you earned this for the charity good luck on your run thank you appreciate it I have $10 from list that just says Metroid oh and here we have $25 from trainer Emily early morning here in the UK so it's lovely to wake up via metroid run best of luck awesome thank you guys here we go it's coming so we're gonna click the ice beam and I'm gonna go ahead and do another one of those up a thingies here and that'll put us back at the start of brinstar one more time I'm gonna collect an e-tank that's in the ceiling here and then we'll be on our way to tour it so guys I was gonna come up with some my Samus jokes but I ran out of time I was actually pretty good I kind of liked that was that a bomb yeah again I wasn't ready for that one just just roll with it is this thing is very hard to come up with puns for Metroid I was afraid I was gonna screw that up Wow [Applause] that's why it's on the couch ladies and gentlemen I've got some even worse ones but if we don't need to go there i I maybe we do what what is samus's favorite sitcom starring Candice Bergen more fever out okay you're right those are definitely way worse than your other ones there's there's like two people who know metro and Murphy Brown I mean look they're dying right I'm gonna just let you cut it off because I got a couple more donations just kind of wash off you wait man half of those donations are more few round jokes I just I just told the funder you'll see yeah they're coming they're coming all right all right so to get Natori normally you have to form a bridge after defeating both mini-bosses but in the sending percent run we're only defeating trades so how do you suppose we get into Torian without that bridge so there's normally you've probably seen this iconic sequence break before but usually we would see it with bombs but Metroid mcfly did not collect bombs so what the heck is he doing [Music] that's not gonna work little high little Glasgow fries real quick we get multiple chances if that's gonna work close I'm gonna go just let him unfreeze you basically I want to try to freeze this guy into their eye spot that's gonna be too far again I'm bad hmm what four tries to charm close they're nice but yeah basically how that works is that if you unmoor fin midair and jump immediately if you time it properly you can actually fit famous to go through any platform there and as long as there's two blocks above it for Samus to fit you can just go ahead and cut right through so keep in mind he doesn't have bombs so if those Metroid's grab them that's not so great he won't be able to get free you can't make it to a door if you're close enough and get them off of you but that won't be a problem for every fly [Music] so we have 75 capacity and it takes 73 missiles if we play mother brains room perfectly those appetites in this game regenerate very quickly so I really can't make much of a mistake at all he can only hold 75 missiles and he has a lot of doors that he has to clear that our missile doors so he can't actually make it to mother brain with 75 missiles without getting some missile drops so this is where you kind of have to turn the fade over to the game and hope that it's going to cooperate you can imagine with runs this is a lot of grunt killing stuff here you need to get some missile drops in this room to be able to move on and there's the chance that it just you could just deplete all of your missiles and let's hope for missiles I'm separating these Metroid's out by the way cuz the drops in this game are frame based so as long as I killed them two different ways okay we are one one shy we need one more drop but any Metra's that you kill on the same frame well there we go the game was tightened up there we go Dayna alright alright so we got the missiles guys we got the most he can only miss give it a go let's do this thing let's go I was clean [Music] nice nice just bit this is it is this that it has passed is this fit I believe it might be it this is it to me I'll take it word for this is to e-tanks a morph ball killing kraid and getting ice beam and that's it and now he's going through to complete this game wives any % in a marathon yeah that's true my boy give it up for ya the run can be really risky for a live live runs despite that I went that way and we got the missile driving that's yeah yeah there's no there was a lot of a lot of potential for bad things there and man we avoided basically all of those great run you'll never see anything like that it'll run time on that run was 11 minutes 26 point forces yeah beat the estimate quite a bit huh it's good stuff yeah like I said really great I wanted to say thanks again to everybody donating and everybody
