Somebody mentioned they had higher-quality local recordings this time, so it's not that bad.

It's a lot like the Link to the Past, so you can work it out from there. I will be watching both so we can be internet buddies if you want.

As much as I like Zelda runs, I've seen the next two like 1000 times so I'll be skipping them, may watch em later or something.

It really is impressive for when it came out. The speed tricks are also really impressive, although Link Between Worlds recently took that trophy away.

It was amazing.

It's up there with LTTP and Link's Awakening in weird exploits.

Better than a crowbar.
Been watching this sporadically during the week. Noticed that the announcers breaking to pimp a sponsor seems to be a bit more intrusive than previous years. Though that may just be because Tiny Build's script makes them sound like the shadiest thing ever. 'Hey! We'll make your indie games better! Honest!'

Runner hosed up a lot of the big tricks because they were too new and unpolished but the run was OK. I would wait for a more refined run, honestly.

Ha, don't most Zelda games go faster if you roll everywhere? Although isn't one of them faster if you backflip everywhere? Either way, the sound is going to get on everyone's nerves I bet.
