[TAS] NES Track & Field "max score, playaround" by Phil in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/970M
TAS originally published on 2007-09-30
This movie of Track and Field plays with two players: one of them aims for a maximum score, and the other aims to demonstrate clumsiness, quirks and other humor.
Watch this run being played back on a real console ( • [TAS Verified] NES Tra... ).

Whenever someone is caught cheating in the Olympics, I always just assume it was a real life TAS

[@CoolToonis]

Lmao

[@NASCARFAN160]

I like that player 2 failed so inhumanly hard that he was kicked from the Olympics

[@theimortal1974]

but first he was turned white by the skeet shooting part.

0:55 the greatest long jump in this game's history 2:35 and javelin throw

[@user-tl8le5mg4l]

lmao

[@justindorado7380]

You can use emulator and find the fastest turbo😂

[@MayContainLanguage]

That long jump was a pretty good result, yeah. I'm less familiar with javelin records but I suppose that was fairly absurd as well.

[@AndrewBlechinger]

​@@MayContainLanguage They hold the event inside the track, so there was a worry that javelin throws might eventually leave the infield and hit the track, maybe even a runner or a spectator. (At the time of the game's release, someone had already managed a throw past 100 meters!) So the javelins these days are made to fly less optimally, with throws past 90 meters being very rare. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Javelin_throw#Javelin_redesigns

[@szymon6207]

138m. What a HUUUGE ?

[@BrandyBrandalia]

Imagine being able to hit a UFO in low Earth orbit with a javelin 😂

I remember playing this in gym class in elementary school. Instead of a controller, they had an A and B foot pad for both players. So much fun. 😁

[@terencehill2320]

Never happened that sounds absurd especially from that era

[@PassionFlame64]

@@terencehill2320 What are you even talking about?

[@AdamAwesombrero]

Was it the Power Pad? If it was, you probably played “Stadium Events” or “Track and Field II”.

[@AdamAwesombrero]

⁠@@terencehill2320 Look up the Power Pad. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about.

[@evciachic]

wish i could remember my bests. But i could cycle through all the events over and over. i do think it actually ended after like 9 rounds. but honestly i cant remember. i played it on the original Nintendo in 1987-88ish. I was like 12. at first i used a thimble but the fastest was when i used those black film containers with a grey lid that youd get with your developed film. i could max out the speed with it. i could do skeet shooting perfectly. archery id be surprised if there wasnt a few times i got 600 everytime. I just played it obsessively. Like punchout, zelda, super mario. One game i never finished was metroid. i dont think i owned but played enough to get deep in the game. And it got increasingly difficult. More so than any other game i remember playing during that time.
