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

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/...
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.

[@DMMDestroyer]

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

[@夜空が素晴らしいです]

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 😂

[@BxxMxxK]

Imagine Aliens flying around in stadium luminaires.

[@Shady_Fungus]

I don’t have to imagine, I saw it happen

[@billgeniusforever]

i really wanna know who was the person behind this idea 😆

[@zuraizkhan7297]

Try then😂😂

[@therealhardrock]

For everyone who wonders why the athletes are a couple of "Marios," it's because that was a standard way to make sprites with limited pixels back then. The mustache shows where the characters mouth and nose are, and the sideburns show where his ears are supposed to be. The more detailed sprites in Track and Field 2 are faceless because there aren't enough pixels in the face to create facial features.

[@johncameron1935]

They gave my dude a javelin and he pulled an Evangelion.

Great TAS, Entertainment factor 69/70

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”.

never got past the clay shooting and the archery part back when we played this. and never got those bonus scores for the other games. we always get the javelin throw one.

As a kid, I was always able to get to the bird in the skeet shoot. I was not aware until today that you could hit it 2 times per target.

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.
