The goal of Max% GT Code is to finish with the maximum item percentage shown on the credits screen. The rules are: GT Code is allowed, no out of bounds, no glitched beams. The maximum possible known percentage is 136%.
Max% GT Code does not require the player to manually collect all of the items in the game. During the early part of the run it is crucial that the player must not collect certain items. The player should perform the GT code while having the minimum number of e-tanks, reserve tanks, and ammo packs. This will leave the maximum number of these items to be collected after the GT code.
After GT Code, the player will have 53% items. Then go collect 45 missiles, 9 super missiles, 10 Power Bombs, 14 e-tanks, 4 reserves, and 1 screw attack. This adds up to 53+45+9+10+14+4+1 = 136%.
There are two important things to note:
1.) GT Code doesn't add 100/20/20 ammo capacity to your inventory - it replaces whatever you already had. If you have 5/5/5 ammo when you do the GT Code, then now you have 100/20/20. If you have 30/15/15 ammo when you do the GT Code, then you'll still wind up with 100/20/20. The same is also true for e-tanks and reserves (this is important). This means that to get the most out of GT Code, you want to enter it with 5/5 ammo and NO e-tanks/reserves. This leaves the maximum number of these items still remaining on Zebes for you to go pick up after GT Code.
2.) E-tanks, reserves, and ammo packs count the number that you have when item percentage is determined. On the other hand, major items like Gravity Suit and Plasma Beam are either yes or no; you either have it or you don't. Getting a major item like this before or after GT Code will have no effect on your final item percentage, because either way you will have exactly 1 of that item at the end of the game. This means you never need to pick up items that are out of the way like Spring Ball, X-ray, etc.

I love how as soon as Samus gets access to shine spark, abiding by the laws of physics simply become a suggestion
-
That ghost you saw as a kid alone in your bed at night was actually speed run samus phasing in and out of spacetime.
-
This went from “imagine Samus barreling down a hallway at you going top speed” to “imagine Samus straight up phasing through solid matter and quantum shifting behind you while you’re just minding your own business.” So fast.

28:55 The Speed Booster is a pathway to many abilities which some consider to be... unnatural.

I love how, for the first 16 minutes, this run looks relatively normal (aside from the avoidance of extra Missile and Super Missile Tanks, and all E Tanks), then you do a clip to get into Ridley's Lair, take a quick dip into the lava, do another clip, but then you suddenly have nearly everything when you enter the Golden Turizo room, and suddenly walls, ceilings and floors are mere suggestions.

I need someone to do a 5-10 hours long video breaking down about what the fuck happens in there
-
So. In Terminals video.... Samus wasn't even using 5% of her power...... On a serious note, impressive. I have no idea how painstaking creating a TAS is.
-
this guide is kind of hard to follow

6:18 that poor space pirate thought he was safe
-
This TAS has so much personality, I absolutely love it. I can just see Samus as this unstoppable force of chaotic power tearing through her old stomping grounds, and when one of the golden 4 show up in some dramatic entrance she's just goofing around because she's so utterly unimpressed.

Biblically accurate shinespark

I imagine this is what a Terminal Montage video would look like in-game
-
I'm not familiar with Super Metroid's glitches, but it was amazing seeing Samus just walk into another room and for seemingly no reason she just HAS the Gravity Suit on. I can't comprehend what the heck Samus did within a frame to manipulate space-time to give herself that and possibly more, but I am impressed nonetheless
-
It took me a while to realize what kind of run this is. First min% then max% is amazing. I realized that something's about to happen in lower norfair when Samus was going right without power bombs, and I didn't get disappointed.
-
I like to imagine this is how Samus is on every mission of hers.

Just another day in the life of Samus "I don't have time for this shlt" Aran.

Bro, I’ve literally traveled the world and this is up there in memorable experiences. Great TAS.
