** The fastest speed run of all time (On SDA) is actually [http://speeddemosarchive.com/Clue.html Clue], coming in at a time of three seconds. By the time you finish reading this, you could have already watched the run in its entirety.

Demonstrated to great effect in the current standing runs of Pokémon Yellow version ([http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yXTpnUCh5Q 1:09.63]) and ''[[Super Mario Land 2:

The end result is that JC Denton skips most of the boss encounters, never deactivates his killswitch, has conversations with people he's never met before and blows himself up into [[Ludicrous Gibs]] right before hightailing it out of Area 51.
