As somebody who in my youth dicked around with a lot of the speedrunning tricks in Metroid Prime, they're not joking about how loving tough it is to navigate the out-of-bounds region.

My personal Metroid canon is 100% speedruns of each game because Samus owns Shows up, loots the place, blows the planet up, back in time for dinner

Man, the Trials Evolution run is completely insane, and the runner makes it look so easy that nobody realizes when he's pulled off crazy poo poo.

One cool thing to look forward to in coming months is that Dolphin (the Gamecube/Wii emulator) is now working in official Nvidia 3D support. So that's Metroid Prime in stereoscopic HD for starters. All they need to do is hack in some manual camera controls and you've got Metroid Prime Trilogy in VR. Dunno about you lot, but I'm carrying a bit of a nerdboner for that concept.

I haven't played prime in a while, does anyone remember when you would normally get the space jump boots? I've never seen prime speedrun before and this run is pretty sweet.

I figure it'll be fixed soonish since they recently got huge problems fixed (for the most part) with Rogue Leader and Paper Mario among many others. I love how transparent the Dolphin team is as well, it and PCSX2 are two of the better projects I've seen regarding emulation.

PCSX2 is actually a bit of a mess, according to one of my friends who's a programmer on the team. He's said large parts of the core need to be completely re-written and the devs have no idea how to tackle the issue. Additionally, the main graphics plugin programmer left the project a while ago and the devs apparently are completely clueless as to how to work on it in his absence. PPSSPP is reportedly a much better handled project.

Being on the front page of Twitch means that it is pulling in a lot of people who wouldn't have tuned in had it not been advantageous to do so. Plus speedrun marathons are becoming more popular. Was hoping for a non-OOB Prime run but this is still a good way to have woken up today.
