Mind you, you have to be absolutely frame perfect to use the wall-jump method, so it's best not to use it. Also nate, you should work on the down-up-right-jump part better, I could imagine you pulling it off if you did

Yeah didn't Dfangs use the other way in his 0% TAS? At least from what I can remember. (not walljump)
I like Big Butts and I can not lie
Yeah, it's used in every tas because it is the fastest way with the most lee-way
I think the link is broken...

I need that video and I need it now!! *sob*

No really, can someone check it please?

The video will also be on youtube somwhere
Umm.. If in USA-version the shinespark lasts 3 seconds, and in PAL-version 3.6 seconds is there more chance of doing it on PAL? Or has the frames and internal clock (something like that I'm not much of a wise guy) set the way that it actually isn't all much longer time? But if it is wouldn't it be more reasonable to try this trick on PAL-version?
There is no framerate difference between the European version and the American version since it's on a handheld device.
Yes, but didn't quite answer my question:

Wouldn't it be more reasonable and easier to try this on PAL-version since the shine lasts longer?
where are you getting this information that the shine lasts longer?

also your spark lasts 180 frames (3 seconds NTSC or 3.6 seconds PAL
Let's get this straight then. The shine lasts for 180 frames, all versions. On earlier consoles, and still for some games today, there was a difference in framerate between the NTSC and PAL video formats. NTSC ran at 60 fps (frames per second) while PAL ran at 50 fps. This means that 180 frames would've been 3 seconds on NTSC and 3.6 seconds on PAL.

But a handheld device like the GBA doesn't use either of these formats, I think, correct me if I'm wrong. But more importantly, all games run at the same framerate in all regions. Therefore the shine lasts 3 seconds, period.
ah, so we have p.jman to blame for the confusion, then.

Just got that shipment of tar and feathers, but the tar already hardened and cooled. -_-
Hey is there any other pics and vids that work.. of the 0%? ALL i see are not working.

This contains the 1% that is skipped.

Fusion differs from the normal % meters in other metroid games, since it only counts expansions as a percent, and not abilities.
I today tried the bob skip for the first time in my life, and suddenly started to understand how damn close nate has been. I mean he made it through the door and the shine lasted even on the other side! I in the other hand, only made it to the door. I don't understand how do you jump the way that you spin jump but don't move forward all that much, I have to do it a bit different or I'll hit that ledge from down.

I probably need more practice, since I pretty much suck ass at Fusion. My first 7% was a crappy 1:15. :P I would've wanted to go under that, but no. Luckily I'm leading my time already.

When you shoot, you stop jumping, and you just land faster. After you shoot, jump again as fast as possible
I know that this topic is old, but I'm doing a 0% run, and those videos don't work.

Could I get those videos? I want to see how to avoid "bob".

Thanks. A lot.
Assuming the link works >__>.

...

Does it?
You could've checked yourself.

Yes, it worked.
We should get a youtube vid of this. Unless people really don't want one. I could make one if needed.
Doesn't D.Fangs have a 0% run To-BOX segment somewhere on Youtube?
not evil,just hungry
Here's a Youtube of the TAS bob skip
