A tool-assisted speedrun/superplay (abbreviated TAS) is a speedrun movie or performance of a video game produced by using features unavailable to regular players, such as slow motion or frame-by-frame advance of the gameplay in order to play it perfectly. There are many famous people within the Smash community who are famous for their TAS exploits. As no emulators currently exist for Nintendo 3DS or Wii U, no TASes have been made for Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U

TAS has not been used as much, at least so far, for Brawl due to it being a newer and slightly less technical game. However, a code for the stand alone code handler, Ocarina, has been released which allows frame advance gameplay. However, the frame advance is manual, making for inconsistent progress (such as one frame being advanced slightly later after the one before it, making editing an inconsistent process). Due to Brawl not having a consistent slow down program such as Action Replay, most TAS's done for Brawl are done using the Dolphin emulator. The few examples include TAS's of Break the Targets by JPleal10 [4] and Home Run Smash by ssbm4ever [5] and timi1016 [6]
