    TAS originally published on 2022-11-07
    Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse is the story of Trevor Belmont's battle against Dracula from the times before Simon's battle in Castlevania. In this complex and difficult game, there are three playable allies whom Trevor can recruit: Alucard (Dracula's son), Grant DaNasty (a pirate captain), and Sypha Belnades (a mystic warlord).
    Unlike the other branches of Castlevania III, this run uses a stairs glitch in Block 4 to climb directly to Dracula and skip most of the game. Only the USA version allows this glitch to work, so it was used instead of the Japanese version, which has superior sound quality.
    In this run, scrimpeh ( tasvideos.org/... ) beats the predecessor movie ( tasvideos.org/... ) by 00:11.18 seconds through new tricks and better strategies.

    Ah yes, the classic "turn Grant into an axe while climbing up and down through glitched screens, adding E000 to your time, and deleting 20,000 points from your score" strategy. A totally normal speedrun.

      Yeah. It's a shame it didn't make it to the NES Classic. Which I accidentally sold along with most of my other games in an effort to retire as a gamer. Thankfully I got most of the games I sold back so at least there's that. Still, I learned the hard way that selling your games and consoles even if you plan on retiring is a bad idea.

    13:55 Ah, I see Life Force isn't the only NES Konami game in which rapidly spamming the pause button will corrupt the background.
    (For context if any one has a NES Advantage controller try playing Life Force with the controller's slow motion switch activated. The game will go haywire.)
