Play as Sandy 6:41 Speedrun - Maniac Mansion (NES w/ Game Genie)
I thought I ran out of speedrun ideas for Maniac Mansion but I guess that wasn't the case. Here we have any% with the Play As Sandy Game Genie code SUPINI that @RecordSetShed found some time ago. At 6:41 the pace is competitive but the use of Game Genie obviously voids that aspect, though SUPINI doesn't appear to have any mechanical impact on the game from what I can tell. In any case, this is just to demonstrate a novelty. Not all characters are featured within but here's a key of the sprite swaps encountered:
(Regular : Supini mode)
Dave: Sandy
Sandy: Dr. Fred
Jeff: Dave
Michael: Jeff
Weird Ed: Edna
Edna: Michael
Purple Tentacle: Weird Ed
Dr. Fred: Syd
Green Tentacle: Unchanged but glitched/flashing
Meteor: The Plant
Meteor's Death Ray: Radiation suit holding the Meteor
Character turning on Weird Edsel during cutscene: Purple Tentacle
Played on an NTSC NES console equipped with the Galoob Game Genie
