Ok
for the noble act of listing all the background tracks you use in your vid im giving you a like and sub.
so many ppl dont credit the music they use. tysm for doing that.
Great overview on the sub 7 grind. I've been trying to get WR back on and off since 2017 after only having it for 3 days. I've come this far in staying a top player for so long and I don't think I'm gonna stop grinding once I get sub 7. I gotta stay persistent and finish what I set out to do all those years ago.
Don't give up! You are next!
Good luck brother
What is your time?
You can do it
@@Dziajileader board says 7:14
I felt so close to sub 7 but yet so far. The rng needed in baseball is just hell. I still feel like I can punch another good time in but I need to get myself together in bowling.
A lot of factors like Errors, Fouls, No homeruns, Strikes, Wind and Hole locations can really destroy your run. But I strive again to do good things watching this.
This video really motivates me to run it again so I might give it a go. Thanks LunaticJ 🔥
Also wanted to say I watch your content all the time and really didn’t expect to see myself in this video 😂
Great videos overall man keep the good content coming!
Wishing you luck bro
@@at4m1cplayz66thanks playa🔥❤️
Do it man! You can push it even lower
@@lucassantana9765 I believe
Awesome video man! Anime Baby is love, Anime Baby is life.
She anime on my baby till I 6:53.867
huge congrats ry :)

Huh
This is an absolutely incredible video. I couldn't put it better myself if I tried, the level of detail and the alternative perspective to previous WR progression videos of explaining WHY it was so hard to beat and what caused me to lose motivation for the category is super refreshing. The explaining of moonball and volleybowl, and bringing up my 7:02 which was pretty unknown outside the community warms my heart in a way to know there's a video that just gets everything right.
Maybe I will get sub 7 one day. Not WR, but just as a personal achievement, as there's no longer urgency to be the first sub 7, yet it will be just as sweet ❤
Man you’re awesome
The man, the myth, the legend!
I don’t quite understand why people do the speed running stuff, but the community seems like one of the best out there, so maybe I do understand it….
Great video!
I was so shocked when this video came out!!! I still love this literal dream ending to the sub 7. I know i never got it, but to be honest, 1.2 never really was the way to go. I still absolutely loved this whole video, and love your videos man! thanks so much to bringing light to the most goated run ever, 6:53!
E
I don't really care about speedruns and haven't played Wii sports in like a decade, so I have no idea why UA-cam recommended this to me. With that being said, I still watched the whole thing
Captivating and entertaining despite me not even knowing this was a thing until I saw the title I found myself very invested
“Thanks for watching, now here’s a dog” is the absolute best possible way to end this video
Best way to end any video!! 😂
Best way to end any video!! 😂
Great coverage and well organized video. Love to see what is to come!
Ok but that strike at 19:33 is a thing of beauty.
New Year’s Eve:
Getting drunk with friends ❌❌
Eat Wii sports ✅✅
Congraturlations to anime baby
Fantastic video. I loved the deeper insight into the run's strategies as well as the inclusion of sub-7 contender's failed runs 💯
SPOILER
congrats RyMac, no one will ever understand how you managed it
I used to watch your wii sports streams all the time Alaskaxp2 I’m glad this vid popped up
Honestly the pause you made after the 9 count and the end of the video brought me more tension than it should. XD really well crafted video. Made me feel things about a speedrun I didn't know anything about in less than 20 minutes.
My favorite part about these stories is how they showcase the "on the shoulders of giants" saying. So cool to see generations of runners exhaust themselves pushing the limit while newer generations get to pick up their hard work and invest their new energy into pushing it even further. A beautiful example of what makes humanity so powerful
love to see more coverage of this game. Great work on the video!
Man, I keep forgetting I subscribed to this channel, or that this channel even exists. But I'm always pleasantly surprised to see your videos in my feed!
dont watch any speed running, nor have i played wii sports in like 10 years... but i just enjoyed a 20 minute video on both lol. Crazy to think how good speed runners are at breaking and solving games. Good stuff man
Great video! Nice to see Wii Sports speedrunning still getting love
great video, was a really fun deep dive into how insane Wii sports speed runs are
I didn't even know this was a thing, but I must say this was a fantastic documentary of the WR and it did not spoil the ending...great job, sub earned
I recently watched the video of somebody using AI to play Wii sports baseball, and they figured out that the splitter was the best ball to throw. Yes you'll get an error fastball right down the middle from time to time, but overall it's the best pitch to throw. I wonder if that's something that could help speedrunners
Was it this video? I saw it recently and heard the same thing
ua-cam.com/video/mTPqIuEM-ug/v-deo.htmlsi=aUPcjSEvTLpGq4RM
Love this video! As a runner, I remember the progression of AS and I love the community. Even though my PB is sub 9, I’m still pushing for sub 8.
Also I think the way I bowl is faster than the methods used in the video. On original Wii sports, you can lock the ball at Max height of the player's arm raised and it will always go straight. I've been using that method for years and years to cheat strikes. I always move to the right very similar to how you explain, but what I do is I swing the wiimote twice very fast. If you don't let go of b on the first upswing and just let the players arm lock, and then swing a second time and curve your wrist, you'll get the same curve and the ball will go perfectly straight every single time and hit the exact same spot
if you swing twice, wont that make it slower?
The Wii, Wii Sports, and Wii Sports Resort are the absolute peak of gaming.
I remember seeing it for the first time after release in the NY Nintendo store. It was so frickin cool and different. I honestly still play ping pong in Resorts. If they release an updated Wii, I would absolutely buy in a heartbeat.
The patience & dedication of these guys is unreal
Fire vid! Reminds me of older karl jobst vids in the best way! Its hella concise but also goes into the relevant details
Amazing! Big congrats!
Near perfect run. Love your vids
Great videos man, thanks
I love seeing the top contenders for this speed run all in the comments, congrats to you all… great effort.
I bet some retirement home basement king can crush the time if they tried.
I heard a rumor once that a guy who held an unmatched Wii Sports Resort 18 hole record for over a decade was a guy in his late 60s. Your comment may have been a joke but its not impssible
So glad I stayed until the end of the video 😍
Big up the beefboss cameo in baseball 😂
Amazing video!
Forbidden Memories music is fitting considering that speedrun is also a bastard
oh i just eat this kind of stuff up 😂 i love watching speedrunning stuff even if ill never speedrun anything except life 😂😂
Hahaha tthe segment names! Tennis, PAIN, bowling hahaha
"Now here's a dog" and then TWO dogs appear, greatest ending ever
While the music itself could use some tweaks, I love the effort you put into the visualizer
love the dog part
Baseball’s luck of the draw is hilarious because actually playing baseball feels like this. It’s a game of averages so you are at the mercy of the game most of the time. It’s a game where you can everything right and still lose.
I remember as a kid trying to beat the sword fighting one as well as the boating one
epic video!! 😎
Another Wii game banger video!!
Thank you 4 am UA-cam recommended feed
MRJIMMYSTEEL MAKES AN APPEARANCE WITHIN 22 SECONDS LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Great video
Only thing on my mind is when is Poofesure gonna get all his plat medals
Take a shot when our boy says “by FAR”
"Now here's a dog" lol what
Hey everyone, so I’m not a speedrunner but I love learning about it, and I noticed that during all of the baseball pitching sections of these runs, the pitches were quite slow. I used to play a lot of Wii baseball and learned that if you quickly flick your wrist while holding the remote, you can throw pitches upwards of 90mph, which should theoretically be harder for the computers to hit, no? I have no idea if this has already been tried or anything, just wanted to put it out there in case it could help shave some more time on baseball (:
Yaah wii sports! I used to play so much Wii sports resort archery.
Love the dog pics at the end, except they got slammed with UA-cam banners
Lunatic do a video on the original Tak and the Power of Juju on GameCube that game has an insane speedrun!!
Ah yes I definitely know what these baseball terms mean, I... I love sports! I'm a pro!
10/10 video
Idk if this will get to a speedrunner of this category but for baseball throwing a right splitter every single time is the most consistent way to get three outs since it’s almost impossible to hit and the only issue would be the ai not swinging but that isn’t much of an issue at a low elo
This actually sounds like a decent strategy! Basically what some other runners do is similar. Outside fastballs at the lowest speed. I will definitely try this to see how well it works!
you want them to hit the ball so you have 3 pitches instead of 9
that is insane....
6:10 it's not really random, it's about hitting the pocket so the pins bounce properly. Throwing without much hook and quickly makes this much easier to leave up
2:56 beef boss appearance
You're my before bed channel don't worry I'll be watching. For now here's a comment and a thumbs up
Knowing speedrunners, they'll be doing the expert holes by 2025. Mayber earlier.
'Disconnect' shots does not sound very legitimate
i had a method with bowling that used a curve but was guaranteed a strike every time
Oh my GOD. I thought the record was beaten, not disintegrated
then there’s poofesure ☠️
If I was speedrunning this I would start with baseball right away instead of saving it for last or after tennis
Well, that’s against the rules. You have to start with Tennis and go down the list.
OH SHOOT
I'm loving that half the comments here are all people mentioned in the video
One piece shirt spotted, instant subscription 🙏
do they have to play in order?.its more efficient to start with baseball and keep the best run and then do the rest normally
yes, the list must be in order.
Amazing video!
Btw, whats the song at 15:58? I've been trying to find that song for a while and cant lol
it says it in the corner, starfall village
W video u earned a sub from me keep up the good work!
Baseball seems like RRRNG if you know what I mean
I saw the community post about the dog and clicked immediately where the dog man
Edit: I FOUND THE DOG!
Watch until the end :)
WAIT THERES TWO DOGS???
This literally can’t get better best wr video EVER!
Why does a ground ball Result in an out as soon as an infielder fields the ball? It’s been decades since I watched or played baseball, but I’m still pretty sure someone needs to tag the player with the ball, or step on 1st base while in possession of the ball, to get an out after the ball touches the ground directly after making contact with the bat. The game just says “out” as soon as it gets in the glove of the infielder…
17:41 hands shaking as hell, look at the cursor lol
Ngl none of this made sense to me but entertaining nonetheless
Conjuring pepper
When is Poof getting on this?
did I just see my own Mii??
Can't you just play baseball as first to get it over with early or last so its effects don't mess you up in the middle of the speedrun? Or do you have to play the sports in order?
Have to play the sports in order
why not just run baseball last? or does it have to in order?
Does the order of executing the sports matter? If not, why not go baseball first and just quit the run if you don’t beat a specific time
yes, rules say you have to do it in order
Waiting for the goat Paul_inthe_Mall to comment
Here for the speedrunning but as someone that works outside all day: please use sunscreen 😭
My toxic trait is thinking I could easily do this 😂
What's up with that glitch at the end? Counts to 9, then black screen and audio skip...
"The quest for"....Can you.not.yhonk of your own naming conventions instead of ripping off someone else's?
who else seen the time slow down on the last hole of golf on the sub 7
Poofesure could do this
Cool!
And rymac got this run…
Wii sports speedrun is a thing ?
17:37 whyd he wait 2 seconds here
edit: oh slow motion ok
Great video, but I’m sorry speedrunners didn’t break anything for three years. It was luck and perseverance
I LOVE NICROOOOO
the goat
What the hell is this imma stick to bodybuilding
2:47 skipping the win cutscene huh
Wouldn’t it be quicker to just lose ? If you are looking at just time just lose
“moonball” is something everyone did when the game first came out lol. it was THE known way to always get a strike. i think everyone just realized on their own it always got a strike or their friends showed them. like i can’t understate how well known this was even right when it came out
We get it, you knew before everyone else did lmao
