It's a tool-assisted speedrun. Wikipedia even has a page dedicated to it. At the beginning of each level, I did a savestate, destroyed the whole level to see where the exit and all the items are, loaded that savestate and then blowed only those walls I wanted. As the whole walkthrough is recorded on an emulator movie, when you play it, it shows everything you've done. Since all those testing, failing and slow sequences are overwritten by new sequences I did after loading savestates throughout the walkthrough, the final movie looks like a perfect speedrun where I already know where the exit is and don't do any mistakes.
i remember there is a bug or something that when you explode a bomb on yourself and keep spamming the bomb button you keep exploding and can move. if you stop spamming the buttom you will die. Later in the game theyy give you a powerup like that
Yes, there's two powerups in this game, the Flame pass and the Mystery Item. Both make you invulnerable to bombs. I remember that bug too, you must keep spamming bombs but after a short time you'll die anyway.
I loved this game as a child. I never figured out though that the upgrades and the doors were in fixed positions, always thought they were random. Nice job!
SpiralPegasus They are randomly placed. This is tool assisted speedrun, so the player can use savestate and before starts to speedrun, player can look the places of power ups and doors, then starts.
Graphically, for the time it was actually good. Graphics will never be a deciding factor on if a game is good or not but that’s just a personal opinion. Everything is what they should be and it’s not hard to figure out what everything is. For the NES, it did just fine for what it was expected to be. Granted, it was never going to match Arcade graphics because of the limitations of the system.
I don't know why it took so long for me to find this, but... whoever you are, thank you. This is wonderful. This is the kind of game that you'll never see on TASVideos. They're all about optimization there, and there's so much randomness (as in everything) that this is just about impossible to optimize. I've had _so_ much frustration with this game, and it's gratifying to seen it literally blown apart. Thank you. One of the things this really illustrates, as was the case with many arcade-style games, was that if you wanted to have any realistic chance of reaching the end, you _could not_ die *at all.* Once you lost those powerups, that was _it._ That's why I never could truly enjoy these games; no matter how powerful I got, doom was never more than a few inches away. That's what makes these kind of videos so great. Did I already mention that? 😊 Oh, and I've always read it is "Tool Assisted Smashfest", or "Tool Assisted Slaughter" as the case may be. I suppose "'Splosion" works here.
See, the thing I've noticed about TASVideos is that, even now, they're _really_ merciless about optimization. Even if it's the very first submission, they won't tolerate _any_ gaps. I've seen some very good submissions rejected for this reason... Shinobi was a particularly heartbreaking example. So regarding a game that's 100% random, who's going to spend possibly _years_ on it and risk getting shot down with "you didn't do this this and this, please make a little effort you lazy bum"? Heck with it. As long as I get to see a game get crushed, that's danged well good enough for me.
What I love about this version of the game is the enemy AI, it's so wacky that some of them get stuck despite there are openings. The enemies are also unique in a way. Too bad they nerfed the last enemy type in Bomberman II hard by having random movement, is solid, and slower. The tiger one was rebalanced to have its AI go at full speed when it's on line of sight, and slightly slower and have random movement if not.
It's been fairly surpassed by a Japanese last year, but this TAS held the WR for 9 years man. I think I've watched this TAS more than 10 times as I love this game. 😂 I'm commenting 11 years later to say "good job man", especially reading that you just did savestates to know where the doors are. As a solid Bomberman player I'm certain it would take me a lot to defeat your timing so huge respect for you. 👍🏻
Thank you for your kind words! There is a new, more optimized TAS in work by jlun2. He needs more passion to finally push it to the end. I'm looking forward to seeing it.
I used to play this with my father when i was 5 years old....today i am 23 years old and he is no more....watching this game reminds me so much about him....I hope he ll be happy in his next life
GET SUPER POWER FOR BOMBERMAN FROM THE BEGINNING Stay on the game home screen for enough time to see the computer play. once computer finishes the game then the home screen appears again and now you can start to play with a lot of power from the 1st stage itself (It works for me but with some of my friends it's not working) Try it guys it may or may not happen Another point to notice there are two kind of movies of computer playing the game, in one computer finish the stage and in other computer die., At this part were computer dies we may not get the power.
29:30 So Boberman is Lode Runner? 😲 I always thought that Lode Runner's enemies were equal to Bomberman but I didn't know that these two franchises were connected
And it was made by a 14-years-old kid. I have never considered it wizardry. I wasn't even doing much planning, with the exception of locating items and exits behind the scenes.
I never made it past Stage 18 because I didn't know how to approach that bear head at the end, and always ended against those purple and green blinking coins that appear if you run out of time (here they blink just purple and that creamy orange as usual monsters). I've even beaten them all once (not in that stage, though), but they are quite game over enemies. Also, in my version of the game you died from your own bombs if you didn't evade the blast wave, and bumping into monsters even from behind also got you killed.
Uhh, that is how the game works. You only survive the blast of your own bombs, if you pick-up an upgrade for it on stage 30. And you always get killed when you bump into enemies.
Ive recently got addicted again and I've only been able too reach level 19 the I get too excited and place 3 bombs in wrong spots for getting my 3 blast power ups and kill my self 😂😂.
When I was a child, I had a broken Famicom. I couldn't even pass the 1st level, but nobody could kill me! At the beginning of a level my Bomberman was planting bombs all the time and I couldn't move him. As a result, he stant in the corner with unlimited explodes.
watching this playthrough, how can your timing be so perfect? well, i suppose the game system is basic setup where everyone moves around the same and there are no rogue like elements in it, but STILL, jeez the TIMING IS PERFECT!!!!!
To all who have loved this game,now they have released a game named bombergrounds which is available in mobile nd in steam.Its a multiplayer games with the same concept.
Goran Mišković Here is the ROM: wowroms.com/en/roms/nintendo-entertainment-system/bomberman-usa/21762.html Here is a Nintendo NES emulator which I use: www.fceux.com/web/download.html
It's a tool-assisted movie. I used savestates and slow motion to make it. At the beginning of each level I made the savestate, destroyed all the walls on the level, loaded the savestate and then destroyed only those walls which hide the power-ups and the door. And yeah, it's random, but locations of power-ups and the door are fixed after a level is displayed.
What... when I beat the game it told me "Bomberman becomes runner, see you again in load runner" xD. Otherwise this must be some sort of world record I think. Congrats.
Trying my best. I make content I'd like to watch myself. Though, I'm a little sick of replying on how do I know item and door placements because I've already responded on it for several times.

@@Dimon12321So THAT'S how tool assisted runs work, neat.
I have totally forgotten how much I loved this game
Nostalgia moment to see back after 21 years 😥
the feeling of dread when you accidently blow up the door and all hell breaks loose.
wrong, no dreaded for such or anyx, do things not dreaded thing. also no good bad, cepux, any is ok
@@zes7215 Did you just have a stroke?
Once we're in endgame, no such like hell breaks loose
*I AM the hell*
Especially when the extremely fast monsters like the Phantons spawn!
*loose* ,not lose.
Favorite part of this game is getting all the power ups stacked and feeling like a god.
And then dying to a fucking coin
i remember there is a bug or something that when you explode a bomb on yourself and keep spamming the bomb button you keep exploding and can move. if you stop spamming the buttom you will die. Later in the game theyy give you a powerup like that
no such thing as power or not
That's super bomberman 2. Not this one.
Yes, there's two powerups in this game, the Flame pass and the Mystery Item. Both make you invulnerable to bombs. I remember that bug too, you must keep spamming bombs but after a short time you'll die anyway.
Yes you have said correctly
I remember blowing the door and for some reason turning it white after the blast.
Watching this was so satisfying
"to become a human being"...
Human, is unstopable killing machine.
Well done Hudson.
Lode Runner
This game used to be one of my favorite game. Totally forgotten it. Watched it after 20 years. Thanks for uploading the video.
懐かしいな。ボンバーマンよく遊んだな。夢中になって遊んだな😃
I will always love the soundtrack
THE ENDING IS THE SAME AS METROID, BOMBERMAN'S FACE REVEAL IS A AWESOME...
Best childhood games! It was so much fun back then! I miss them!
I loved this game as a child. I never figured out though that the upgrades and the doors were in fixed positions, always thought they were random. Nice job!
Same here. I thought they were randomly placed too.
ShockL0ver I played a similar on PC,which you move a boy(like a hero) and explode tanks
SpiralPegasus They are randomly placed. This is tool assisted speedrun, so the player can use savestate and before starts to speedrun, player can look the places of power ups and doors, then starts.

and they tend to have seizures when in enclosure
The music is legendary!

Nowadays, tasvideos is a little more lenient, but yeah, this is a kind of game that you gotta beat several times in order to get an optimal route.

Excelente trabajo amigo, disfrute ver el vídeo. Ahora me cierra la idea de porque bomberman se vuelve en lode runner al final :D
I used to play this with my father when i was 5 years old....today i am 23 years old and he is no more....watching this game reminds me so much about him....I hope he ll be happy in his next life
Accept my sincere condolences! My father passed away when I was 6, around the time I was given my first NES.
Oh god when the spinning coin monsters become regular enemies!
Oh God I hate them the most!
GET SUPER POWER FOR BOMBERMAN FROM THE BEGINNING
Stay on the game home screen for enough time to see the computer play. once computer finishes the game then the home screen appears again and now you can start to play with a lot of power from the 1st stage itself
(It works for me but with some of my friends it's not working)
Try it guys it may or may not happen
Another point to notice there are two kind of movies of computer playing the game, in one computer finish the stage and in other computer die., At this part were computer dies we may not get the power.
Its a pity, such low views for such a legendry game
wow ... this was insane ... you are a master of Bomber man ...
edu hazard it’s tool assisted but still can be appreciated.
29:30 So Boberman is Lode Runner? 😲
I always thought that Lode Runner's enemies were equal to Bomberman but I didn't know that these two franchises were connected
The ending text... They really broke the 4th wall, huh? And the fact he turns into straight up Lode Runner just kills me 😳😳😳
以前玩這遊戲的時候，第一關卡在吃到「火力增加一格」的道具之後就會先自殺，遊戲設定不會因為該關卡死亡而失去該關卡的道具功能，所以自殺之後又可以再吃一次「火力增加一格」！
lol. I never crossed level 3 in my childhood. this guy knows exactly where gates are
so after succeeding Bomberman went for Ballon fight!
its a lode runner
Lode Runner
This is my childhood!
Александр Вознесенский Моё тоже!
Моё тоже, друг. )))
wrg, not
3:49 I would have died in a dead end situation like that. This guy is really killing it.
it is tool assisted so any situation can be replayed to frame perfect. goal of tas is to enjoy the shear perfection.
Which ironically takes the whole enjoyment out of the game...
ccanaves lol whoever make this video have no enjoyment, takes hours to make this video
You enjoy the game when you play it, not when you watch the gameplay, dont you?
@@humorss *sheer*
to make bomberman tool assisted is some next level wizardry
And it was made by a 14-years-old kid. I have never considered it wizardry. I wasn't even doing much planning, with the exception of locating items and exits behind the scenes.
I never made it past Stage 18 because I didn't know how to approach that bear head at the end, and always ended against those purple and green blinking coins that appear if you run out of time (here they blink just purple and that creamy orange as usual monsters). I've even beaten them all once (not in that stage, though), but they are quite game over enemies.

It is tiger, not bear. Japanese 'Tora' means Tiger!
Ive recently got addicted again and I've only been able too reach level 19 the I get too excited and place 3 bombs in wrong spots for getting my 3 blast power ups and kill my self 😂😂.
Wow I remember when I used to play this on weekends, when I was a kid. I never could end this crap game. I liked it though ✌🏿️🙇🏿
When I was a child, I had a broken Famicom. I couldn't even pass the 1st level, but nobody could kill me! At the beginning of a level my Bomberman was planting bombs all the time and I couldn't move him. As a result, he stant in the corner with unlimited explodes.
watching this playthrough, how can your timing be so perfect? well, i suppose the game system is basic setup where everyone moves around the same and there are no rogue like elements in it, but STILL, jeez the TIMING IS PERFECT!!!!!
This is a TAS: tool-assisted Speedrun. Basically a recording of the most optimal input over countless attempts to make a "perfect" run of the game.
00:26 ballon come to die, this happan many time when i was play this, such good old memories.
I have fond memories of playing rounds of this game up until I died. Good times.
To all who have loved this game,now they have released a game named bombergrounds which is available in mobile nd in steam.Its a multiplayer games with the same concept.
i miss you watched bomber man
I remember writing all game over codes on our calendar, good times
bro the guy is so good at this game, he knows how far the exit is lol
The explosion sound effect has a lot of quality.
Бомбермен классный: и неуязвимый, бомба сильная( по твоей команде взрывается), даже сквозь стены проходит; всё равно ловкое скоростное прохождение!!!
Monsters when they explode...NANI!!!!!😲
I've clocked this game too. Still remember i was sitting for 6 hrs straight.
In the future, superhuman exam might always test the ability or performance like the TAS playing like that!
All of these comments seem to think this is someone playing casually, this is obviously a tool assisted speed run just read the title
Ta gra była - i jest nadal - najfajniejsza, po prostu super... a że mam konsolę i tą grę (między innymi) to czasami do niej wracam 🙂🙂
And that's why I called him Domilition Expert
隠しキャラを出してこそ完全なTASだと思うな。。
Sure. This TAS is not perfect.

So that's how it ends....
So... this was a quest for him to become a human being? What? xD
yes, hes a robot
thank you for sharing this video
you crazy, its 4 bomb
How do you know the location of the power-ups and the door? Isn't it suppose to be random?
It's a tool-assisted movie. I used savestates and slow motion to make it.

Was he not human before? That ending confused the hell out of me
Lode Runner

Afterwards Bomberman became Lode Runner!!
What... when I beat the game it told me "Bomberman becomes runner, see you again in load runner" xD. Otherwise this must be some sort of world record I think. Congrats.
Lode Runner. Yea I remember it too
This means that Lode Runner is the sequel to Bomberman, not Bomberman II, where a fake Bomberman robs a bank and frames Bomberman for the crime

great to know the door to bonuses, stupid, games to know,
I felt like god is playing while watching it
At the end you become bomber god
He becomes loadrunner at the end.
How did you know the location of the door and powers in all stages? When I used to play, I found them in different locations always.
