Did I just see a speedrunner on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert? Did speedrunning just hit the big time?

I'm looking for my favorite GDQ gif if anyone can help me. It's a did with long hair about to clap and then he glances to the guy not clapping to his left and aborts his clap. It makes me laugh every time I see it.

Call me heartless, but a week of "my entire family died to cancer" set to upbeat Mario music gets kinda awkward.

Although my favorite moment from January was when they had a guy on the phone complain about the announcer not being happy enough and the announcer was like:

":D I just donated because my grandmother died of cancer last year! :D"

The weirdest thing to me about that run is that he had another run earlier in the marathon and it was perfectly watchable.

Yeah, some dark poo poo must have happened in between his Sonic run and Crash Bandicoot run.

They're not benefiting a cancer charity. But I remember a few cancer stories always slip through.

It looks like the kind of game people only play because they know no one will play it and they can get the speedrun record for.

OK, making GBS threads on the standard donation comments was pretty funny.

I love these old MegaMan runs because I was always terrible at Mega Man games when I was a kid. I think a friend and I collaborated to beat MM2 one day. I've tried the newer old school games like MM9 in the past few years and I can't even get to a single robot master. :(

Mighty Gunvolt was literally created as a free giveaway game. That's why it is what it is. It was something thrown together for super-cheap to promote other games. Any "why is it this way?" questions can be answered with "two interns threw it together on their lunch break."

It suddenly all makes sense...except for why people are trying to speedrun it.

I wonder if anyone could answer about the more technical side of the streaming - what are they using to capture RGB signals? Capture card, sync strike, etc? I've been meaning to get into live streaming retro but all my consoles are RGB and the options aren't very numerous.

Not sure what they use, but I have used the elgato Game Capture HD in the past, and it works really well.

Any answer to this? I'd also be able to donate, say, a few PS4s or the like. Not handmade art stuff, but hopefully decent prizes.

I'm sure there's some call for donations on the official forums at speeddemosarchive.com.

Also, the guy that announces what prizes are available during interview sections is the same guy that coordinates all that. If you can figure out his contact info, I imagine you can talk to him directly.
