This is a tool assisted speedrun (TAS) of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D that aims to be the game as fast as possible with no restrictions. Unlike a real-time attack (RTA) speedrun where a player sits down to complete a game in one sitting, this run utilizes an emulator with specialized tools to such as savestates and frame by frame pausing to complete what is essentially a perfect speedrun, or at least as close as someone can theoretically get. As such, this speedrun in its final form took somewhere between 2 or 3 months to create. A comprehensive breakdown of my documentation as well as an in-depth explanation of this TAS can be found in TASVideos author notes linked above.

Dekus be like "you didn't learn to stay the hell away the first time, to the moon with you"

Great speedrun because i couldn't tell if he was just messing around or if he was actually doing a skip the entire time

[@horizontal]

This was cool. I liked the part with the dog.

[@erinexplosives]

It is I, erinexplosives, both unimportant and inactive. I guess I chose the right time to make another post, though. We are witnessing history on TASVideos, as this is the SECOND EVER 3DS submission for the website! And what a TAS it is! benstephens showcases complete mastery in this brilliant TAS of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask 3D, completing the game as fast as possible while accidentally doing the coveted Poop Pants category in the process. The author has put in a monumental effort to cover all their bases in the wall of submission text (it's a lot of words), which is necessary when we're talking about a potential second maiden publication for a new platform. Everything that matters is covered in painstaking detail. I would normally just judge the TAS on its own merits since every other TAS I've voted on is on a system that already has (an) accepted emulator(s), but since this is the second 3DS submission, it isn't enough for the TAS to be of acceptable quality, the emulator must also meet a set of requirements. All-in-all, though, everything seems to be up to par (as far as my uninformed brain can tell), so I shall give a yes vote.

[@ezgames6925]

This is actually the 4th 3DS submission.

[@KingMorgan6]

@@ezgames6925What? OoT3D, SMB2, and MM3D but where 4th TAS?

[@ezgames6925]

@@KingMorgan6 Drancia Saga by Darkman425 was the 3rd. it’s submitted but not yet published on TASVideos. So that would make MM3D the 4th.

[@KingMorgan6]

@@ezgames6925 Oh cool and thanks!

[@MrDoopliss159XD]

19:30 Wait what????? The remains can actually hit and damage Majora? First time seeing that, had no idea. Amazing
EDIT: Just read the TAS notes. Apparently that was introduced in Majora Mask 3D and can do a lot of damage to Majora, thus why the fight ends very quickly.

[@BLUPotatoSpy]

Just seeing the tas pass the time is so amusing

[@FitterSpace]

Wow, that was great! I loved all the crazy things you did during the parts where you had to wait.

[@LightLockR]

I didn’t even know it was possible to create a TAS run for MM3D, amazing stuff Ben!

[@KingMorgan6]

Yeah that so use Citra

[@omniscientomnipresent5500]

Before reading the tas notes, I almost thought the moonwarp was a cut. Wouldn't have guessed it was realted to the bombs.

[@trappercap]

Watching history in the making.
Congrats, Ben!

[@Greenalink]

So he could stop the moon in under 72 in-game hours but can he stop Eggman's Eclipse Cannon's collision course to earth in under 20 minutes?

[@KingMorgan6]
