I play with my Playstation 3 controller. The D-Pad works perfectly fine.
And I just finished a grueling run in Hell, thought, "Surely no one ever has beaten my score for that level" and yep. One person on my friend list had. And I'm still in the 100s worldwide.
But some scores on the global scoreboard are at 0:00. Hack much?
How the fuck do you beat world 5 warp zone? It is so fucking hard I am about ready to quit playing this game. I can get to the very end without losing any lifes but I just can't figure out the last saw blade.
I take it back, this game is too much fun to quit playing, but I did quit that part.
....because there isn't any time you need to release the run button.
I've found that letting it go occasionally in the middle of jumps can help with correcting inertia, myself.
And keeping the button pressed forever in Mario-style configuration is not a problem, and can't fathom why people would feel it's one. I mean, hell. Is there anyone here who actually ever let go of the dash button in Mario for anything other than tossing fireballs?

Really depends on if you want 2x strain on your thumb, or 1x strain on your index finger and 1x strain on your thumb.
Woo! Got 5-16 down to 4.25 with Meatboy. Could have done it a bit quicker but I dithered when I realised I'd actually made the jump. Still, I'm beating all you other Meayboy times on my list by 15 seconds

1.93 here.
EDIT:
Scratch that, 1.25.
Yeah but...you're a dick.
Also, how? Is it just short hop to that small platform, long jump over to bandage girl through the repulsors?

Yeah, I'm at 3.42 with Meat Boy, buy I haven't replayed Rapture for Time Attack yet.
Edit:
2.65 after a few tries, which is good for place #1479 on Live. Ugh.
I could probably get it down to 3, I did dick around a bit (run backwards, then forwards, then when I made the jump I jumped OVER bandage girl and had to run back).
But at the moment I'm just concentrating on getting through the levels, I'll normally just A+ one and then move on without trying to better it over and over.

The small platform you are landing on then running back and forth on, don't land on it. Jump over it, then come back into the wall that is facing Bandaid girl and wall jump into her.
X-running is fine in Mario, but using your thumb for both buttons in SMB is madness. Especially trying to use some of the alternate characters, where X is not necessarily for running.
upper part of my thumb on X, bottom part on A. it's like heel and toe driving.

I'll go back and refine some of my Dark Forest times when I get home.
I still can't get the hang of that shortcut on 1-12x
By the way, I owe LewieP a huge thanks for drawing my attention to this game. I don't know if I've spent as much time on any other game this year and that's saying something; there have been some killer titles.
I found a NES and SNES controller for the PC that I almost got for this game, then I saw that it was $25...no thanks.
Anyone know if a wireless 360 controller can work on a PC without buying one for the PC?
You need the USB wireless receiver for your PC to make a wireless controller work, and as far as I know they're all bundled with the PC wireless controllers. You'd be better off just getting a wired controller; cheaper, and unless you have a media center PC the wire won't matter because you'll just be plugging something into that USB port anyway.
ATTENTION: there will not be a Wiiware version of SMB. we are looking in to retail Wii, bit its also looking grim. still looking though.
Yeah, Nintendo doesn't seem to be very interested in bending their rules, even for popular, highly-acclaimed titles. It's their way or the highway. That's too bad, because Super Meat Boy deserves all of the publicity it can get.
I'm still astonished that Super Meat Boy can't be made to fit into the download limit. I mean... I love its graphical approach, but seriously. There's nothing there that couldn't be done on the SNES.

there's a decent amount of shader work that couldn't be done on snes

A lot of the more difficult parts of the game require near pixel-perfect precision and as mentioned before, a lot of shader work.
Taking a 700MB game (90MB compressed on XBLA) and trying to squeeze it into the 40MB Wiiware limit is pretty difficult.
Dammit, this is not good news for a non PC-game playing me.
Still I must commend Team Meat for not putting out a shoddy title because it couldn't fit everything they wanted filesize-wise. I mean, they could've just fit what they could and said fuck it, but they didn't.

It's trying to protect you. You're really better off not knowing.

Same. I assumed it will show up later.
Because that is actually a glitch, I assume most people aren't doing it on purpose.
I have like 6 times that are 0.0 and I wish they'd go away so I could get my real times to show up.
I take it back, this game is too much fun to quit playing, but I did quit that part.
oh
thanks!

Well, I haven't Finished Rapture Dark or Cotton Alley Light/Dark, so maybe I'll find some in there?
For the rest, I just don't see it.
Yeah but...you're a dick.
