Super Metroid half A press

This is a hack which allows for a half A press completion of the game (jump always held).  This is intended to be used for speedruns for the category extensions.

The term "half A press" comes from the mario 64 A press challenge - beat the game while pressing jump as few times as possible.

I just wanted to mention that this is doable in the original game aswell (by simply holding the button manually all the time, which in Emulator case can then be double-checked even). I've completed this a while ago:
