couldn't agree more , first run was like 2hours and 2 weeks later i was really depressed but my time was a legit sub 25 🙌🏻 10/10 would recommend going through this hell again
@@hazymazy7463 I've played the game since its release. I haven't gotten a sub 25. The progress you made in 2 weeks is absolutely insane and I give you props. I understand the game very well and have beaten the game many times, but I always fuck up when it comes to speedrunning. I know all the tricks, like bomb clip, owless, canonless. But after watching this video, I see that my route was really bad. Im gonna try this new route, and hopefully get my first sub 25 soon. When I get to the last stage, my hands tense up and I start to sweat. I have entered at 22 minutes just to choke and end up with a 26 minute run. Its infuriating.
Just took out my n64 yesterday first time in 20 years, learned blj yesterday, and tried this run for time today and got 1hr 9min. Fookin love this can’t wait to keep improving Appreciate the tutorial man, great stuff
Such a high quality guide, also it's super helpful that you uploaded the raw run using these strats with an input display. I couldn't ask for more, thank you so much for your guides
uh. .you could ask for explanations on anything he is telling you to do. . .you could ask him to stop trying to weigh out whether or not we should go for strats when we're obviously here to go for strats. . .this guide sucks lol
This guide is great, on my first day of learning this game I almost got a sub 30 using this route! Nowhere close to ideal yet, but not bad for day 1. Looking forward to cleaning up execution and getting some sick runs.
If you do owlless in your runs on n64, then you want to do it before fighting the king whomp because since the tower causes lag it can slow you down quite a bit.
Thank you Drogie! I've just got my sub-30 minute and want to keep on pushing for the lowest time I can get, and this video has been really helpful in showing me what the next steps are in order to continue dropping my time. Thanks again, keep up the good work 👍👍👍
Hey! Thanks a lot for this! I've started runing Mario64 2 weeks ago and has been a LOT of fun, i am a bit stubborn with some tricks that i really like so i lose a lot of time with them, but this video helped a lot plus i know i need to get better at my basic movements, the instadive is a movement i haven't mastered yet, but everything else is coming up together! With a sub 20 in 16star category i'd be happy to move to 70 star maybe, not sure yet, and Bowser in the Sky is my nemesis, that last pole grab is what ruins my runs every single time and i just can't do any of the tricks shown in the guides, so i usually get to the platform and grab both poles in a very slow fashion. Thanks again for this and also to the Discord community that helped me to set up Project64!
Thanks a lot for your comment! I wish you all the best for your speedrunning career. Sub 20 is a great milestone to look forward to, and feels so rewarding to get for the first time!
this helped me a lot! thank you for a good beginner's run. i can do basically everything in this run except the dang bird star in SSL and the wood block jump kicks in BitS, now to learn some consistency!
Got to the 3rd Bowser with 16 star but I took easier stars as I wasnt trying to speedrun but just to achieve a 16 star game. Also, a controler with Turbo makes BLGs way easier! (for people who doesnt know, a turbo controler makes you able to spam a button really fast just by holding it)
Thanks a lot Deven!!! 70 is gonna take a lot of time. But I'm totally down to make a similar tutorial once I'm done working on a few other video projects 😁
@@Drogie I would love this as well. Getting started can be a bit overwhelming, so collecting all necessary information in another video would be a gamechanger. I understand that it takes a lot of time though.
just got into sm64 speedrunning like 3-4 days ago. i don't have a usable gamepad so i've been playing on my smashbox and the tiny angle adjustments have been tough haha. so far i'm up to wall kicks will work. many thanks for the guide 🙏
My friend and I have both just started speedrunning this game to see who can get the best time after a month. Thanks to your guides I've managed to get a 22:11 after my second week!! Thank you for all your hard work Drogie!!
Thank you for this! I am just gonna try out some "speed running" mostly just for fun! To learn to play the game in a different way. I have never tried before so it should be fun!
Really awesome video, thank you! This makes 16 star look much less intimidating 😂 What's the reason that people switch to a Hori controller for Bowser fights? And are you ever going to do more Pokemon Snap again? :O
First of all, thanks a lot zx! Well, one reason is, for most people it's much easier to spin on a Hori. The other reason is that the OEM n64 sticks wear out quite fast, after only a few bowser fights they can become noticeably looser. And, I'm not sure if I'll ever come back to Pokémon Snap speedrunning, but I do sometimes play for better highscores. Maybe if there is a new discovery in the speedrun, I'll return? :o
this is really helpful! But there is one thing you are missing, you don't show the Z button so when i was trying to do a BLJ i couldn't do it until i looked up how to do it. And you also didn't mention that you had to hold the Z button. So it would be good to add a thing to show that you are pressing down the Z button
So been learning for about 3 days now and it's definitely a different ball game when you're the one behind the controller lol. Entirety of the past 3 days has just been practicing lobby up to bowser. Red coins on the first bowser stage is so much harder than I imagined! It's that second damn coin that gets me lol. What star did you get to substitute for the red coin star? Hope you respond! Best guide 100%.
I've been playing 70 star on and off for like two years and I never knew I could hold A to fall slower while twirling. So this explains a lot about the Klepto star lol. Thanks for the guide.
@@Drogie For example at around 4:10 you explain the second star, but I can't see what mario is doing because it's all purple and foggy. I think you did that when you display text but I would prefer see what mario is doing than see the text, imo
I'm insecure now cause I'm approaching a 19 minute PB, but I'm using so many tricks. Lakitu skip, bomb clip, even owlless. And here you are not even doing Lakitu skip and getting an insanely low time. So I guess I should focus on movement but how do I best go about doing that? Just doing hundreds of runs as practice and let it improve by itself or are there specific steps I can take to improve movement?
Would've been better if you didn't slow down your speech with the clips, as I assume you slowed it after editing the audio in, but still a good guide. Thanks
Soo... i never played SM64, but I watch Speedruns for like 4 years now and i wanted to try it aswell. I played for like 8 hours now, still have problems with walljumps, but at least im able to do the mips clip and the blj's. Guess for playing a day only, thats a nice ,,starting point" for my future speedruns
Hey Drogie, I have quite a lot of trouble sticking the long jumps at the end of Bowser 2 on that ledge. Is there a set up of some sort? If not, I think I'll skip that trick for my first few runs. What do you think? Also, we PM'd on twitter but you didn't answer anymore. Best, Smogshaik
just beat my first 16 star run at a little under two hours LOL, technically 4 cause i took a break and played a couple games of valorant, awesome guide thank you
@@Drogie Thanks!! I really did have fun. I actually got cannonless first try and was so hyped! Lots of really exciting moments doing these speedrun strats lol
@@Drogie update: PB is 21:29. I have a 20:xx in my current gameplay just a matter of getting a run together!!! Thank you for this amazing guide once again!!
While practicing DW reds does having the starting text box affect the cycle ? I practice w/o text box and it feels like the first elevator is never in position and I’m forced to wait. Ty for all this amazing content !
@@Drogie ty!!! Good to know I’m just too slow! It’s rough cause all my movement seems ok, I’m fast off the 2nd red coin box and even when I hit the speed kick I either ledge grab or even bonk the elevator cycle
beginner question: is saving and continuing after a star suppose to be noticable? cuz ive been saving and continuing on PJ64 and I fail to see how its slower then going down 2 in the menu risking clicking save and quit instead of just pressing a on the first option.
Is there a trick to get the owl to drop Mario straight down? Mario has a weird tendency to get released with some velocity in the left direction, and I sometimes miss the cage if I don't compensate for that.
It will release you at the speed you grabbed them. So either try to grab it without a lot of horizontal velocity, or ground pound right as you let go :)
Thank you for the tutorial! Is it possible to do it on switch with the "remake" ? I want to try a SM64 speedrun but i would rather do 16 stars than 70 stars at first. Thank you for the answer.
Hi Kulty! Well, hard to say because it depends on how much you play. If you play several hours everyday for weeks, I'll say go for sub 20. If you don't have as much time, aim for a sub 30 at first :)
@@Drogie I already got sub 20. I got a 19m35s PB by far, but I feel a bit unsatisfied. I did everything decent, but lost a lot in time in BiTS. I thought a good time would be something like sub 19. :)
This is the only run I'm good at, and I've done this many times on my Nintendo 64 console, but a 1 and 0 star run is too hard for me, and I don't know how people do side backwards long jumps, that's hard to learn.
bro I can't do the double jump for the emergency star, I just keep banging the wall and falling for now reason. I've been trying for literally two weeks and I just can't do it
@@Drogie Thanks and by the way, what controller do you recommend? I'm currently struggling with a ps4 controller because i dont have anything else. Is an n64 controller with a usb cable good or do i need one with the original cable and an adapter?
@@crunchytoast6307 any controller with thumb stick notches will make your life WAY easier, if you can’t get your hands on n64 controllers then a GameCube controller will be a lot better than ps4. Due to the way movement works in the game, having notches allows you to lock into an exact direction which makes certain movement and strategies extremely consistent every time you do them, without notches there’s guess work involved
relearning this game and I swear on these bowser throws throw him when he's abt to be in front of the bomb goes way past it, go early so it should hit right, nah just goes way before ;-; got a a lot to work on this lol
Take a shot everytime the guide tells you to look at a guide to learn how to do the thing you went to a guide for in the first place. Take another shot everytime he tells you to press buttons faster.

@@crunchytoast6307 any controller with thumb stick notches will make your life WAY easier, if you can’t get your hands on n64 controllers then a GameCube controller will be a lot better than ps4.

How come you skip red coins in dark world? It’s quite easy for beginners imo, and it lets you skip a basement star
We all agreed it should be skipped for very very beginners.
so what star do you skip on if you collect the red coins in dark world?
Talon in SSL
if u get the red coins in Dark world, what star do u ignore?
Dorrie/Nessie star in HMC :)

Me and my friend never played never played Mario 64 and we're planned to speedrun it blind, you think it's a good idea
You need SOME knowledge first. Maybe watch this full video and then make a run
Thanks
I have only one question. Can I do the speedrun on switch also?
Sadly not, they patched the BLJs! :(
@@Drogie and with the switch online?:(
@@mik4114 Switch online expansion pack's N64 SM64 works. It doesn't use the version without BLJs, so speedrun to your heart's content!
