Kirby & The Amazing Mirror - 32767 Speed

If you manage to acquire more than 32767 or -32767 speed, the value turns negative, making you fly to the other side of the room within a few frames.
For comparison, wheel Kirby moves at 1024 speed...

This is epic. It would be great if it could enable a big shortcut in a TAS.

@CoolKirby2000

It's completely useless in a TAS, though...

[CoolKirby2000]

@mugg1991 Is it the puffing at the wall that takes up so much time?

[mugg1991]

@CoolKirby2000

Puffing against the screen border like in the video takes like 100,000 frames...

You can't turn around and travel at the speed you already have. You can puff against a screen border during a miniboss battle and when the boss dies you travel into that directon with the speed you built up (2000 or 3000 speed is already enough to enter walls). But entering walls isn't useful at all in this game, and travelling at constant 1024 speed (wheel) or 690 (missile) is always better.

Only work on Japanese version?

US and JP. not sure about EU.

It's a TAS-only trick, so don't even bother doing it on GBA.

Kirby's BLJ!

@mugg1991 Oh, OK. Thanks for clearing that up for me.

Kirby is faster than sonic.

@stevoisiak

Too impractical. Using parasol instead of wheel as the "ability for travel" is likely slower. You can build up enough speed to enter walls in a boss battle within a reasonable time span but it's probably still slower than just killing a boss and using wheel.
