37 minutes in and loving this one. Impressive display in the form of timings, knowledge, and glitch execution, and the player / couch pair are fantastic. They can talk very naturally about the game. Would love to see them again.
Ultimoice its a great runner, this run was charm and entertaining, i believe its not the first time we see those glitches in agdq, but its still awesome and funny. Please AGDQ, we need MOTHER 3 and MOTHER 1 next year, because its the 30 years anniversary of the first game!
Yeesh this game certainly has a bizarre plot. A warrior from the future travels to the past in the form of a bee to locate the chosen one and is unceremoniously killed off via swatting.
I know this is a (few) years late...but something I should have noted at the time. This was done at Twitchcon. My run got pushed to the early hours due to some people cancelling. When my run was about to happen, the whole floor event was shut down until like 8am or something. I'm sure there were people who would have watched had they been able to get in. It even took me a while to convince security to let me by as the runner.
Reminds me. Back when I used to do main gate photos at my local theme park I used to use "Fuzzy Pickles" when photoing kids. Tell 'em "Say fuzzy pickles!" before snapping their pic.:D
No, it's just funny and long and fits the character limit. Niv-Mizzet is also a dragon, and after inputting the name the runner gets a Bag of Dragonite.
@@JellyMyst I guess you could stretch it though cause he is the izzet guild parun(high rank) and they are blue and red so like fire and ice and spellcasting guild so psychic would sorta go with that.
Sam Gonzalez there's a point where Earthbound asks for the player's name, as in "name of the person holding the controller", so that it can surprise you with it during the final boss since you've probably forgotten about it by then.
I like to imagine that Ness' Groundhog Day is basically just him falling down the same flight of stairs over and over and over again. xD Like, no matter how hard he tries, his day ends by him just falling down the same flight of stairs.
I just played this game for the first time this year after watching a speedrun from a couple years back, and its easily became one of my favorite most well written games. I cant believe I missed out so much as a youngin and its nice to see this played in the honor of that new Undertale "Sequel"
I hope when I eventually attend a GDQ, they'll have a Photo% run on the schedule. Great runner, great commentary, and everyone throwing deuces on "Fuzzy Pickles!!" has made this one of my favorite runs ever.
18:55 You actually can get Tony out of the school without cheats by using the stairs glitch to go to the room where he normally is and get him that way, or by having Poo with Jeff to be able to teleport away, which can be done by getting captured in Threed as Poo, which can be done through a pretty complicated process. Basically, it’s possible, but somewhat complicated.
I've played this game for my whole life pretty much, and I finally see the man with the gold tooth. I've lied to him for years telling him I could see him just to coax him into following me to his buddy. Wow
I think I read somewhere that it was called Mother because at the time the RPG market was oversaturated with like, Fantasy settings and the Mother series is a big contrast using contemporary settings. Also, theres a big lore tie-in woth the entire series and stuff
So ChuggaConroy presented some info that I take as cannon (forget if it actually is, or just fan theory/headconnon) But, the Photo man was hired by an older Ness to take photos of their journey, because as he got older his memories of their journey began to get foggy and fade.
Hah! Don't worry, I took plenty of guff for that on my stream. Someone even sent me the card for my wall of decorations. Unfortunately I grew up in a small, Midwestern town. This is kind of an EB/related story, actually. I remember buying some Magic cards as a kid, and my mom at the time (seeing this as the last straw) thought they were evil and threw them in the trash along with my EarthBound cart and other things that had magic as a concept in them. I snuck out to the garbage that night and recovered my EB cart, the only thing I was brave enough to take from the discarded items. That's the cart that is in the SNES on this run. TAKE THAT MOM.
Likely similar to why OoT runners don’t use hover boots; the speed boost is negated by an associated effect. For hover boots it’s the slip sliding when turning and start stop movement, for skip sandwiches it’s likely the menu work that comes with it when eating the sandwich on top of purchasing a bunch of them. And with RNG manipulation being based on how many letters are printed on screen it could likely mess with routing and oddly enough lose time.
TOONS. Thanks for checking in. Still alive and well. I took time off to start a new career and then ended up founding another tech company when an opportunity came up...The time has gone by fast. I'm only recently rising up for air again as the new venture stabilizes. I did do a MWSF run of EarthBound August, 2022 as a throwback, which you can probably find someplace on YT. It was a really rough run (both with RNG and because I was recovering a lost voice), but we escaped some bad luck and finished strong. AndyPerfect had the commentary, which was a real treat.
@@TimothyBraunI hope you’re doing well. You were always great to watch. The handful of your runs I’ve seen are up there with some of the most memorable.
Ultimoice is a cool dude. About a year ago I streamed for a week playing Earthbound and he came in and watched a few times and gave me some pointers.
I'm now obsessed with watching these speedruns. Earthbound is my all time fave game. Thank you!
I love how they pose on the couch whenever the camera dude shows up. Thanks for bringing us this run!

UA-cam's compression algorithms cannot grasp the true form of Giygas' attack.
Ulti, SICK cliff skips. Best non-TAS I've ever seen.
Runner introduction starts at 1:47.
Run starts at 2:16.
If anyone wanted to know, Niv-Mizzet the Firemind is a Magic: the Gathering card.
No, it's just funny and long and fits the character limit.
Niv-Mizzet is also a dragon, and after inputting the name the runner gets a Bag of Dragonite.
what are they naming with that contest exactly? I thought Ness's name was just "Y"

It Keeps Happening
i did not expect a sbahj reference here but i suppose I should have
Bless your soul
@@canine8284 Nobody expects Homestuck but you can't fight it.
the photo ruse was a... DISTACTION
Hands down one of my favorite games of all time. Loved the run - and the magnificent beard on the couch!
7:57 wisdom, courage, and friendship.
The earthbound triforce.

How do you get captured in Threed as Poo without cheats?
My favorite game! Love this speedrun category. I donated 32 dollars after this run was over. 1 per fuzzy pickle
Very good run with good commentators. Reminded me I had a run going on my SNES Classic and I wanted to finish it.
This game is tied for first for my favorite game ever
What's the other one?
it's been 4 years and i still gotta know!
I want to know too 😂
This was a good game I played it in my phone the whole game 2 years ago it was amazing and it's a trippy game
I love this game so nostalgic
Me too,play it on my super Nintendo mini
such a terrifying final boss for a seemingly innocent game
What time was this run made? Seems pretty empty for EARTHBOUND.
like 3 am my dude
Willy Tsung 1:16:58
The website says it was scheduled for 12:21 UTC and the event was in Maryland(UTC-5), so it would have started about 7:30 AM local time.
@@scragar GDQx was actually in San Jose, California at Twitchcon.
Oof, 4 in the morning. No wonder.
Anyone notice that the dog at the end during the prayer opens A DOOR and closes it, then comes in the house
13:05 hey you can't go around onett police roadblocks they're the best in the world
All the Fuzzy Pickles warms my heart
Really nice stuff! Always impressed when people can pull these things off! Made good time too :D Thanks for running this!
Love earthbound.
Play it on my super Nintendo mini.
I play on my 3ds :)
@@kastaway-mtx nice
1:11:00
I had no idea that was Sgt. Pepper's but it makes sense. There's a yellow submarine in his dungeon after all.
This run has changed a lot from last year.
I've played this game for my whole life pretty much, and I finally see the man with the gold tooth. I've lied to him for years telling him I could see him just to coax him into following me to his buddy. Wow
This run had a lot of moon walking.
at one point the game says Y E E T.
you guys are hilarious. love this run
This guy has the perfect brow for a Guile cosplay.
Ay let's go ultimoice
I warned you about stairs, bro.
It keeps happening!
Invisible man has a reason to be invisible. That guy is terrifying.
I'm going to hear that title music in my nightmares now >
Love the mtg name option!
well now i know where toby fox got the synth for the undertale true lab battle song. The answer is. the area you walk through on the way to giygas
This was fast...holy hell
Do you think the lack of good father figures in the game is part of why it was called Mother in Japan?
I think I read somewhere that it was called Mother because at the time the RPG market was oversaturated with like, Fantasy settings and the Mother series is a big contrast using contemporary settings. Also, theres a big lore tie-in woth the entire series and stuff
I'd say a Dad that gives you infinite money is a pretty positive image.
Ever notice how much the photographic genius looks like Wolf Blitzer dressed for a dinner party?
oh it looks so lonely in there :'(
Fuzzy pickles!
Wait a second, my Mario paint got referenced at 1:26:23
Love the M:tG name, haha
1:56:40 Epic soundtrack
Those stairs are dangerous
Why is GDQ video audio so low D:
so why did he need to goto the desert for that crystal charm purchase?
Helps his speed stat when he fights the tent
Love me some photo% :D

That is completely made up
... That adds literally nothing and makes no sense at all. There's zero connection to anything in the game
MrBowser yaaa it makes more sense that some random old guy who can teleport just insists that he take pictures of his favourite group of kids.
It's on the game's Japanese manual

Fuck how did i missed this live
Yo, E is overpowering.
Can someone explain why they don't use skip sandwiches to move faster?
It's probably a routing thing

Oh now I understand

Hold up. Why did no one tell me agdq was going on? I thought it was January...
What's GDQx?
A Games Done Quickly Express, a mini event that was held at Twitchcon.
Boneless GDQ
Wish I could donate to save the animals, but my name goes against it 🤣
*wow*
There's no animal called Kow ... You are just making excusses to not donate >:o
There is not animal that's called a kow on zebes

Check the video description. It's a smaller event that happened during (and at?) TwichCon 2018.
maybe they just want some social interaction, hmm?
Hears Niv-Mizzet
THE LEGENDARY DRAGON
😁✌
Is the gameplay stuttering for anyone else?
By "stuttering" do you mean waiting?
Cause yes.
None made reference to the Fetus?
30:00 people not knowing what Magic the Gathering is smh.
say, fuzzy pickles!
Its the same guy as the last time, its the same kind of speedrun?
