Resets are Awesome

Using a reset in Mupen, I was able to skip the South Clock Town introduction scene. This saves a LOT of time. I reset the game on the first frame which would result in going to the Dawn of the First Day upon reloading the file. If I reset any earlier, it would just start back at the very beginning of the game.

I'll be using another reset at the start of the second cycle to avoid that flashback sequence.

Compared cutscene to reset time. Saves about 12 seconds.

[SwordlessLink]

It's much, much more than that.

Resetti's gonna kick yo ass.

Swordless is a speed runner, so every second..no, HALF second, counts. Skipping this cutscene is like finding a gold mine for him.

@bonestorm99 hes this guy who would come up and yell at you if you reset your game without saving in animal crossing...

[DarkMarc9001]

@bonestorm99

Animal Crossing, bro.

@nnudmas Who's Resetti?

[Bleenderhead]

You shouldn't have done that...

[Megahedron1501]

Probably a stupid question, but do you know about skipping the zora walking up the beach?

[1119king]

@nnudmas You just made my day. :D

[marioandsonic3339]

@Kzar5678 maybe but VERY Precise timing and some luck as speedrunning is done at superslow speed it tweaks the odds up in the Speedrunners favour which means time-saving stuff is much easier hence all TAS videos habe a 99% impossible chance done in real time unless a Very Precise timer of tatics knowing the game well and some luck

[Kzar5678]

Would this be possible in real time? or is the reset too precise?

@hypersuperultrahaku OR if you're doing TAS (which this is coincidentally.)
