Europe Pub (PieFed)I recreated Bad Apple!! in Animal Crossing's design editor [TAS]

Tool-Assisted Speedrun in 47 hours, 41 minutes, and 12 seconds (World Record).
I designed a Pi Pico-based TAS device, then used it to input every frame of the Bad Apple music video into Animal Crossing’s design editor. Footage sped up by about 750x to make it actually watchable. Each frame took about 2 and a half minutes to render.

Should turn on VSYNC to fix that horrendous screen tearing

Pretty rough, eh? Especially on the horizontally panning shots. I guess I could have upped the effective frame rate to 10fps from 5, but that would have taken twice as long to record, and I wanted to let my GameCube take a break :-)
Thanks for checking it out!
AudaciousArmadilloI assumed this was done in an emulator with TAS scripts, but on real hardware? I’m even more impressed! Nice work.
Thanks for checking it out! Yep, all running on a real GameCube. I left the poor thing running for about a week to get this footage (it took a few takes to get right). All the code, plus a schematic for the hardware is available here: https://github.com/hunterirving/pico-crossing
