EDIT: I just found out that 21 other people have gotten this. yeah..... this trick is actually free™. I guess I just need to git gud LOL Kappa
Working on something.... with a crap wired xbox one controller. And Yes, my fingers do hurt
After coming back from yet another break and seeing the complete and absolute domination of this game by so many talented people (too long of a list to mention people), I got inspired to do something that I don't usually do. RTA. Years of thinking that I was only going to be ever good at making TASes, even though I've pretty much done every trick full level RTA more than a couple of times (all except TAS 4-2 until now) and think I uploaded a few of them. I've now done every single level in this game (besides 8-4 lol lekukie and buffski are gods) tied with the TAS, yay.
This hardest thing for me with this trick is the first block bump. It's actually so bad with the 2A inputs and the getting the perfect jump height after, BabyRage. The 2nd turn around isn't so bad since the inputs are just a very quick left for two frames then right (still hard but not 2A levels of annoying) all while doing it on specific frames. The pipe entry I thought would be the hardest part but it's actually not *that* bad surprisingly? Not sure how it is for others though. There is so much that goes into this trick it's insane. It may not look that bad to a normal person, but it absolutely is. Anyone who can do this trick at all, including even segmenting it with savestates, is absolutely one of the best players in the history of the game, ever. Well, besides me of course, I'm bad ecks dee. I've never even finished this game ONCE in my entire life lol. I need to git gud
While I'm excited to get it at all niftski and miniland over here are getting it in runs on WR pace AND also getting it 5 times in a row in practice..... SMB1 has the most talented speedrunners out of any speed game FACT.
Follow them because there's a 91.878% chance that one of them will get it in a WR run.

Anyways.... this actually isn't my first time getting it, but it is the first time with recording. I wanted to get this like 3 months earlier but real life stuff (also I'm bad yepppp kosmicZ). And my nestopia crashes every single time I try to play so I have to use fceux RIP. By the way, the people who came up with this strat are actual 500 IQers. That down+right to make the subspeed correct is actually big brained. Oh and idk how I got a R02 with a 118 frame jump lol. I've missed it by a frame everytime i've gotten a 118 frame before, but this time actually worked huh.....
I actually might try to get this on regular smb1, maybeeeee. And would want to get it with Pl8-1 since it's actually free™ now with god gamer setups. I just need to not choke the fast accel which I almost got in this actually Lol. Just a bit too fast. dang
