[TAS] Arcade Michael Jackson's Moonwalker "3 players" by DarkKobold in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/...
TAS originally published on 2010-12-29
Not only does Michael Jackson have a Genesis video game ( tasvideos.org/... ), he also has an Arcade game! This game is loosely based on the movie of the same name, featuring Michael Jackson saving children from Mr. Big. When Michael meets his pet monkey Bubbles, he turns into a killer robot!
Michael Jackson's Moonwalker is a 3 player arcade game, where you play either a white-, red-, or black-suited Michael Jackson. The author uses all three players to complete this game as fast as possible.
This movie uses a bootleg version because the proper version did not work on the emulator used.

1:45 Those music-synced attacks. Nice.

[@thatonedude05]

Some music-synced moves at 10:15.

[@RemiAutor]

What an awesome game to watch TASed.

[@RemyNote]

Fantastic TAS! Both fast and highly entertaining. The moves to the beat made me smile many times.

[@MBizarro]

Funny and Awesome TAS!

[@Billy096]

that elevator ride tho

[@kderouen83]

What's the deal with the robots before that though? Is it some kind of dildo thrust robot or something?

[@kderouen83]

11 minute mark

[@tevlonwater5643]

I like the 10:37 dance sync!

[@Guitarhero1000]

I think the Sega Genesis Version really captured the audio well from the Arcade version. This game looks like it could be ported to the genesis without many changes. Makes me wonder why they went with a platformer on the genesis version.

[@cantaloupeme]

Arcade had an issue with the game crashing. The board wasn’t built well at all. So they made it more compact for home consoles.

[@BeaMode1990]

Three Michaels kicking ass.
I'm here for it. 😌😌😌

...Hold up. Did those Micheals just absorb those kids into their coats and end off the level like that? *_Why?_*

Time to shine.

[@dosestupidosjuegan]

I loved this game when I was young

[@rtube111]

I'm too

[@Thinker77]

Very well done… I didn’t think it was possible 😎

[@jerrykhorjiunnlin3749]

Mr. Big is much like Harry from Home Alone.
Well done, Michael Jackson!

[@claudiamoura87]

Excellent job

When Michael does his specials (Dance Magic), there's 3 different samples of MJ songs. I can recognize Smooth Criminal in one of them, but when he does the Billie Jean routine (when throwing the hat), there's a song I can't recognize, can anyone help with that? Which song is it?

[@seanbperiod]

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Jackson%27s_Moonwalker#Arcade_version
"The game's soundtrack includes "Smooth Criminal", "Beat It", "Another Part of Me", "Billie Jean", and "Bad"."

[@DonVecta]

***** well, thank you (actually, Wikipedia was the very first place I ckecked), and no, I'm not talking about the BGM, just the sample used when he does his dance magic of the Billie Jean routine. Thanks all the same.

[@seanbperiod]

One could easily deduce that those are the only songs licensed for the game, so it's a sample from one of those or some created separately. And you're welcome.

[@noble_wine8809]

They made an arcade ver of Moonwalker? Awesome. =D

[@notsyzagts7967]

It was the version that came first so it makes sense.

[@solarflare9078]

Is there any differences with this bootleg version?

[@MegamanXfan21xx]

Man, a remaster of this would be amazing.

[@KamalasFakePolls]

[@fennerguyreloaded]

P2 Tito
P3 Randy

Black Michael Jackson is best Michael Jackson. The suit color, I mean, not the skin color.

[@alejandrofantasia]

12:14, There was a Glitch

[@SeppelSquirrel]

The explosion had to go now. Its home planet needed it.

[@spudmatix8770]

[@edward9487]

Occasionally, it's me when I play co-op with no controllers and all the inputs got connected to the same keyboard.

Paow!

[@UpIrons777]

Those guards on the elevator shot worse than Star Wars stormtroopers. Literally could not hit anything whatsoever.

[@kainigwon5433]

Just, like, that
