Super Metroid but all the transitions and fanfares are removed [NONSTOP ACTION]

The fanfare that plays when you pick up an item in Super Metroid lasts a bit under 7 seconds. When watching a 100% run (which means picking up all 100 items), that's over 10 minutes of just listening to fanfare music. At first, this video was just going to be the with the item fanfares cut out, to see how much faster the run would "feel" when watching it.

But then, I realized the first several minutes of the video would be exactly the same as the original run, since there are no item pickups until the Morph Ball. I then decided to include door, elevator, and floor transitions as parts that would be cut - essentially, almost every case where the player loses control of Samus, with the exception of things like boss mechanics (e.g., Ridley grab, Mother Brain rainbow beam).

This here is the 100% Super Metroid video you watch if your parents or significant other tell you that you only have 30 minutes; I hope you enjoy it.

Please note: This is not my run. This is a tool-assisted speedrun (http://tasvideos.org for more details) completed by Sniq, originally published 2019.08.01. I'm not affiliated with Sniq or TASVideos in any way; this is nothing more than a fan project.

However, I am open to the idea of doing more of these [NONSTOP ACTION] videos; leave a comment if you have ideas for other games you think would be entertaining by having cutscenes or other content trimmed out!
