Makai Toshi SaGa (Final Fantasy Legend), completed in one minute and 58 seconds, thanks to a chain of glitches. A bug in the inventory screen allows the player, depending on the in-game location the bug is triggered, to generate new items, warp to different locations, change characters to much more powerful classes, and even create items that work better than they’re supposed to. Magweasel’s Kevin Gifford translated a guide written by this speedrunner, if you require more details.

The result is that the ending for this Game Boy RPG takes longer than the actual playthrough.
