[TAS] [Obsoleted] GBC Pokémon: Yellow Version "arbitrary code execution" by Fracta[...] in 03:14.15

A tool-assisted speedrun of Pokemon Yellow on Game Boy Color that uses glitches and frame-precise inputs to make the game execute an arbitrary program. It was later obsoleted by an improved run.

HN cites it as a showcase of memory-corruption exploits achievable using only normal controller inputs, often alongside other arbitrary-code-execution speedruns.
