I didn't use any slowdown. I used frame by frame.
But I'm sure that 1% speed loss can really help you out on it, huh? >_>

Fusion broken by maybe 2 or 3 more frames: http://www.metroid2002.com/ekarderif/fusion_broken.avi
Look carefully at how high my shinespark is. Yeah, there's a margin of error now! The shot landing really helped.

I have been reading about this 0% thing today and I must say its awesome. Like many I figured it was near impossible on cart because of all the fast button pushing, but I think I might have just figured a way to help out. I started playing this game yesterday and by mistake I noticed that if you go into morph ball mode when you are charged up in dash mode that it allows you to keep the dash charge for about 5 seconds even if you just stand still. I thought maybe it was just a glitch in the graphics and sound cause you stop running fast but you can still do the air dash/jump move (whatever it is called). Since this allows you to go slow, if I understand the problem right, this will help in hitting the X thingy that is blocking the path with the jump dash. That make sense to anyone? The idea isn't complex but I know my explination is bad.
Here is the disclaimer. I have read all the topics I could find on a 0% run and I have never heard this trick being brought up before. Also I haven't looked in the game book cause it is packed away somewhere so this could be common knowledge and I just don't know about it. So if this helps, great. If it is more or less a pointless post, just ignore me.
*goes back to playing Fusion*
Edit: I just found out that you only have to kneel to keep the charge. You Don't have to go into morph ball mode.

Yes, that is called Shinesparking, young padawan. And what do you know, Shinesparking all over the place with extreme precision is the basis of ALL this 0% trick. Oh em gee.
Wait, you DID say that you only started playing this game yesterday? And that you tucked away the manual and didn't care to read it? And you STILL have the guts to say that you read everything about a 0% run?
Way to make a moron out of yourself. Congratulations.

Yeah, I'm pretty good at it.
I think everyone's good at making a moron out of themselves sometimes. Oh yeah, why ARE you looking at this topic if you only started playing a short while ago?

Is he not allowed to or something? Unless I'm deeply mistaken, anyone can look at this topic, even if they've never touched Fusion. You don't have to have much experience with a game to still enjoy reading about the best runners breaking it wide open.
I'll be back. Maybe...
*gasp* Some people don't care about spoilers!
Now, why could it be that frame-by-frame consistently refuses to work for me? I shall have to investigate further and get 0% thus.
Which reminds me: if you had a programmable controller, you could probably program a button to Down->Up in two frames. But that would probably count as tool-assisted. It might work, though...

and Nebula427, try not to worry about these people insulting you. normally we try to delete messages like theirs before anyone sees them, but i had class and was unable to do that.
Don't worry about it, I have been called worse before. Besides, I'm not gonna let something like that keep me from playing Metroid or keep me from doing anything else for that matter.
Now that I beat Fusion I am gonna have to try to pull this trick off, just for grins.

A good point, but it seems a little over-ambitious. I mean it would be much easier to understand what's going on if you've already completed the game. That's what I meant.
Quote from Arkarian:
Are you going to emulate or do it on the GBA? Either way, good luck, man.
I don't have a GBA or an emulator. I do have a Game Boy player on the bottom of my cube though. I'll prolly end up trying to use the joystick and the d pad together to pull it off. I estimate my chances are somewhere between -5% to 0%.
