Didn't that thing get proved completely fake? Was looking for an article that stated it but couldn't fine it.

i dont know about fake, but its assisted, they use tools to do it frame by frame to get perfection, I heard it took the guy 8 months or so.  A

Also found one for the original Contra game as well.

The contra one seems fake (it looks the guy uses an invulnerability cheat) -- on the snowy level there are vehicles with spikes, the player runs right through them.

I grew up playing these, I wonder what sort of replay value they have?  I need to track down roms of my old games.  :)

replay values are awsome on most of the olds school games, at least from the last time you played them until now, contra is great mario bros 3 is one of the best.  love them all.

my friend Brett did it in 14 minutes unassisted, taped it with a camcorder.  I don't know for sure, but he may have (or is preparing to) submit it to some website which deals with old game records.
