The History Of Mario Kart's Most Unforeseen World Record

  • In Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, most players focus are on online races and multiplayer games. But a handful of players main focus are on the Time Trial gamemode, where they compete to drive the fastest runs of every track in the game.
    GBA Ribbon Road has one of the most unique layouts of any Mario Kart track. It has a whole section where you drive on a ribbon that changes shape. For speedruns, any moving objects in your way require players to do different strategies depending on how fast your run is.
    Sometimes, taking advantage of a moving element is so beneficial that it allows you to catch up to someone who didnt have the same option. On Ribbon Road, exactly this occurs in the last 10 seconds of the roughly 2 minute long world record so it can't be lowered by having a lead.
    The state of competition on the track is to drive two very fast laps and maybe slow down if needed, so you can do the ending strategy perfectly early.
    But in December 2022, a player set a new world record on the track that proved everyone's idea of a limit wrong.

    you did really good work slowly building the viewer into an understanding of the track. you gave enough context to make each breakthrough meaningful, while not overwhelming those whose first introduction to this track is this video. so much so that the last run was able to speak for itself (with a little tasteful editing), and as someone who would have otherwise not understood the ingenuity, finesse, and dedication to get that run, you honestly gave me a richer perspective. among those who write speedrun wr histories, your control of structure and flow in the audiovisual format is some of (if not) the best i've seen. i hope you feel free to make videos on whatever you'd like, bc if they have the same care put into them as this video, they'll all be bangers

    This video is a great inspiration to Mario kart players, a really in depth video showing just how much the MK8DX community works together to put everything into a run! The only issue is, is that the meta has shifted and all this hard work for World records to be beaten in the matter of a few hours after the update!
    Which said you may have to make another video with updates strats because of the update to the game ❤
    The WR may have been beaten with the new update and I need confirmation on this.

As a gamer who’s first console was the GameBoy and have been through every gen since, it’s astonishing and magical that we can play a game that looks like this on a tiny handheld. It looks like the pre rendered graphics devs would show off in the late 90’s/early 00’s . Wow!

    How are you capturing the B roll footage? I’ve always wanted to take a free camera around the mario kart maps and explore the details.

    You make amazing videos, and I hope you will make more videos like this in the future. Also you think you can make a video Rainbow Road 8? It’s one of my favorite tracks and would love to see a video on it.
