Just read about the guy from Texas who completed "A Link To The Past" in under 2 hours, so it got me thinking, what is the fastest time I have completed a game?

I finally fount out, it was "Luigi's mansion" it took me 18 hours so here is my question:

Name the fastest game you've ever completed and how long it took you to complete it, it can be any console (but preferably a nintendo console).

Hope to here from you.

Thats a good point. I remember "Starwing" (or Starfox) for the Snes and that game was rock hard. The same goes for "Super Mario Kart" and "Mario Kart 64", Snes version harder, N64 vesion easier.

I hope Starwars Ardmada and Mario Kart GC have higher difficulties levels.

Ps: How quickly did you finsh Lylatwars (if memory serves, it took me 3 hours on the hardest route)?

It still makes me wonder what they were playing at with Lylat Wars.

Everyone finshed it so quickly. On some levels it was almost impossible to die or fail to progress.

The game model itself and graphics and everything were fine, if not great, so why was it so easy and un-arcadey?

The bosses were so easy and tedious, absolute zero tension.

The alternative routes (some of which were much too specific to ever find in normal play) and medals added nothing.

*shakes head*

Thats true, hey "Hercules!", remember the hidden mansion that was opened when you finshed the first one?!

Cause I know I finshed it.

Rayman 3 - took me 4 to 5 hours to complete. Also, Luigi's Mansion wasn't as small as you think, if you consider Hidden Mansion, which made it about 14 hours long.

Im sure it was less.

It really doesnt take long. It was my first go because I borrowed it off my mate for the day.

He came down in the afternoon, started playing it. He went home for his tea and came right back. By then id finished it.

Easy as that.
