Man, Yakuza was the most annoying part of the 1% run. Not because he was hard, but because you had all that way to run to get to him. Missing that energy tank was a pesky problem as well. When you died at Yakuza, you had all that way to go when you restarted.

I had done a 1% run back a few months ago...

Yakuza= 1st boss who I offically called a Ridley on my 1% run. 2-3 hits meant I was dead.  Took me god knows how many tries to beat him (20 tries I think...)

Nightmare=  Evil or Very Mad  Evil or Very Mad  Evil or Very Mad This boss was flickerbatting hard! 2 hits at full energy and I'm dead.  Mainly had problems when he started going into ramming mode.  That killed me several times over.  When I did beat him, I threw a big party (you know I did, admit it  Wink ).  I lost count how many times I died here, probably 40+ tries or so.

So yeah, that's my horror story right there.  I might try another 1% later on.

I actually didn't know you did. How big a party? How many people would show up to a "I beat a video game with the least amount of items" party?

...wait, was there food?

haha. I think I would go to that... yeah...if there were food, maybe.
but i definitely wouldn't bring a present for you.

Nightmare was my biggest problem, Yakuza wasn't too bad. I was going to try to start off another 1% run today but I ended up passing out on the couch (I think i have a sleeping disorder...seriously.)

So, some other day. And if i finish in under 1:10, my goal for this run, then we can both throw a party together! or not.

Oh yes, plenty of food.  You missed all that food, sorry  Laughing .

Party's over long time ago  Wink .  I see your point about not bringing gifts though  :P .

And I agree, Nightmare was more evil for me than Yakuza could ever be.  You didn't want to be around when I came so close to killing Big N (as in, its body was red) only to be killed by screwing up my space jumping  Evil or Very Mad .  I was so po'ed after that it wasn't funny.

The first time I did a 1% run, I had trouble on yukaza, nightmare, and ridley. Something that really pissed me off was, the first time I beat nightmare, I went back to the savepoint right before him. I got killed by the stupid guys that hang from the ceiling. Just be glad that something like this didn't happen to you. I'm lucky that it only happend once to me.

actually... i died after beating yakuza without saving...that pissed me off too, hah.

oh, and, I dont know if this is common knowledge. If you're fighting against nightmare, and you have a full charge (dont know if this is necessary) while he's doing his crazy flying mode, you can touch his legs, as long as you're space jumping around, without getting hurt. This saved me a few times from him killing me.

I don't think we're talking about the same thing.. if you look at Sess's drawing, you can actually go IN the damage zone, but not get hurt. I'll try to make an emulator vid and show you I guess. but its not really that important.

EDIT: ah.. just realized i have no saves. I can't load Sess's Nightmare save for some reason, I am using VBA 1.7.2, i tried 1.6a since thats what he had but it didnt work. I dont know where to get the BIOS file but i mean i guess its not that big of a deal anyway.

I felt the same way when trying Iron Ted in MZM with 9%. I got him in red and adrenaline was pumping through my body. My heart started beating all fast, so I knew I had a high chance of blowing it. It's times like those when I play as if I'm losing and try to pull through and make up for it, but it's just too much. He gets me every time with his stupid laser/missile/claw combo. I have trouble on laser/missiles alone. That triple combo is damn near IMPOSSIBLE to dodge! I can't imagine 10% hard (4 missiles?!!).
