There is no list close to what you have in mind though and if you actually plan to make one, I'd be happy to help you with it. You'll find some people talk about it on Gamefaqs and some random Youtube-videos showing off stuff you can mess up by opening the tray: fighting the Koromon in front of the Green Gym, accessing Factorial Town from Beetle Land, stuff like that. The information isn't really collected anywhere, at least not that I know of. Just explaining why you won't find anything about it in this thread.Īnyways, it's still a very interesting topic and I've done a few runs of it myself. I'm not saying you should care about that, because honestly, you should speedrun whatever seems fun to you. I like to compare it to tilting the cartridge in Ocarina of Time: It's not the most prestigious thing to do and is generally banned from actual runs of the game (especially here on SDA). I don't actually think theres any mention of the Disc-Tray opening in this thread. BUT one thing i know is that the copy you allready own is probably worthless for the open tray stuff cause to my knowledge it only works on the japanese version. Since i am not running the opendisctray thing myself there is not alot i can tell you about it. I actually don't have a working physical copy right now (there is one SOMEWHERE in my house that I've stored away ages ago, but it was scratched up to the point of not being playable) but will snag one off of ebay or something if the runs look fun enough. I've heard you could manipulate RNG, activate debug mode, skip to the back dimension, and trigger some plain weird stuff to happen. Right now, I'm mostly just curious about the disc tray thing. If the info isn't collected anywhere, I may consider opening up a wikia or a google drive document that can be linked to and update it with whatever info I find so that I don't have to search for it, and other people could use it too.

Is information on these tricks actually collected anywhere? This thread seems to be the closest thing but I'm honestly a little too lazy to read through 18 pages to see for myself how much info is contained here. Not a speedrunner per say (I've dabbled in some Spyro speedruns) but I'm interested in these runs, especially the ones involving opening the disc tray.
