Total Recall NES Speedrun in

Part of the NESCathlon, I returned to this game and managed to grind out a WR after discovering a few lag reduction strategies and some optimizations in later stages. This is a surprisingly fun, but janky, speedrun.
You could theoretically beat this game 18 times in the time it takes you to watch the actual Total Recall movie. :D

Nice klunk homage to Arcus cool that he was watching. GG! This game is so Nastalgic! This was the first Nes game I went to rent from the video store in our town. I was like 7 lol Congrats on the WR

I use to want to rent the sega cd.
There was a mom/pop rental store that had one you could rent. My older cousin was the first person I ever saw beat a bunch of nes & sega games. Like seeing double dragon beat & and beating mike tyson. :)

Man, I never knew there were more levels after the x-ray bit. I never could get any farther than that.

[@thewal1ofsleep]

Same. I had this game as a kid because my cousin gave it to me. Now I realize that it was probably a cruel joke gift.

Has there ever been a more accurate movie based game? Arnold in a green jumpsuit. Hat flinging hobos. Attack cats. Skeletons. JUST LIKE THE MOVIE!

[@migueldelmazo5244]

ET for Atari? :)

[@karlhans6678]

At least the locations are accurate.

[@phattjohnson]

Looks like it plays like a more refined version of Bart vs Space Mutants :P
I remember the X-ray section from when I hired this game out as a kid (never got much further).. oh the nostalgia!

[@mattgrundy27]

Played this alot as a kid. Never knew I got so close to the end. Great run man.

[@cr4sh25]

Fun to see you so pleased at the end. 😁

[@migueldelmazo5244]

Congratulations. You performed really, really well. Way to go!

[@BobBob-kr5wr]

I never made it past the driving part when I played this as a kid. Its sort of sad that these games I spent so much time at as a kid can now be destroyed in minutes by people on You tube. Regardless, very impressive.

[@IrishThreeFour]

Identical to the movie!

[@xenxander]

I rented this game once as a kid.
As far as I got was the fire hobo stage with the boss that throws his hat.. I never got past it. It's a bit unfair if playing 'legit' and of course that's how you played before you saw strategies to skip or otherwise make things easier.

[@unocarb]

Aaand CLUNK!

[@Manche-De-Pelle]

Dang ... congratulations

[@scottdecowski4913]

"That only took me a few hours" 😂 yeah I'm sure the competition on Total Recall NES speed runs are white hot

[@MaximumCarne]

[@BaDAiR647]

[@Bigbacon]

I could never get past benny and the miner thing..

[@shadeshiest22]

Is this that Dorian? dude? who does the famous Mario bros speedruns???

[@farerse]

I don't think I got past the 1st stage in this difficult game with it's stupid rules ..

[@Raptiel]

Nyeet !!!!!!

[@internetsurferxxx2678]

[@rjsrox07]
