[WR] Superstar Saga speedrun in

World Record Set on March 2, 2023
The game was recently released on the Nintendo Switch and this is the first world record set on the new console :)
This is definitely the best executed run ever at the time and would have actually been a 1:10:xx if not for the 50/50 rng of the Birdo fight, which I originally didn't think was realistic.
I want the 1:10 someday but even getting this is surreal.

I like to imagine the explosive language is just “peach” cursing up a storm.

I’m 27, and I still come back and play this game, though I have to emulate it. I freaking love this game. I’ve started playing it again recently, then I thought to look up what a speedrun looked like, so here I am.

[@tsvtsvtsv]

honestly think superstar saga might have the best version of the underground theme ever.

[@Thym-]

I think i need a "speed run explained" video for this.

[@magnetsphere2872]

There should be a category extension for "all bean juice" or whatever the name of the bean coffee is

Super Paper Mario and Superstar Saga getting new WRs within a day of each other, my two favorite games looking strong and alive in speedrunning! Love to see it
Congrats on the WR! The tricks never fail to blow my mind
Was the slow mash towards the end of the final fight to avoid her light ball storm attack?

[@murmilio42069]

Yes exactly it’s a super hard dodge and takes really long

[@PlushieMaster]

Ayyy GG, Amazing stuff

[@D_Winds]

Cool beans!

[@bryanmulcare9083]

Nice job bro, I bet it took you a while just to get another wr in this catagory

[@Mut4ntG4m3r]

When i was a child the first lugmilla Fight was the roadblock that left me waiting multiple years til i got past :D
Always believed that was the finsl Boss xD

[@alejandrocabral4637]

Great vid and congrats on the wr. Just two questions:
1. Why Spanish? Is it faster?
2. Is there a guide or something for superstar saga?

[@murmilio42069]

-spanish text saves some time over english text (about 5s lol)
-u can check the resources in the mario & luigi discord :) discord.gg/2AfNrh9

[@LeMistaken]

cool, congratz, btw is switchvc any faster?

[@murmilio42069]

nope the switch and gba are identical
the switch is actually ever so slightly faster bc it runs at an even 60fps compared to 59.73fps on gba lol

[@Non-disjunction]

Whats the point of stacking moustache on luigi? And also, why you sometimes take no effort to dogde attacks and tank the dmg?

[@moments2567]

Gg

[@prebuilttarget7191]

So why do you play in Spanish or what ever language this is I couldn’t read it , is it like faster or just preference

[@murmilio42069]

It saves some time like around 10s just due to speed of the text

[@Adventureruler]

AN HOUR??? ISNT A CASUAL PLAYTHROUGH LIKE 10 HOURS????

[@mats8985]

Is there any reason why you pick Spanish?

[@volcarona3604]

whats turbo

[@murmilio42069]

turbo is a function on controllers that mash the button for you automatically. This run allows turbo so people don't have to strain themselves mashing.
it is banned for attacking though because that would actually alter the game while something like text isnt too important

[@AbsoluteDash21]

Are you spanish?

[@murmilio42069]

No I just play Spanish bc it’s faster

[@gamesier2400]

​@@murmilio42069is it faster than Japanese?

[@chrisricohermoso7117]

That pixel vomit is just painful to watch ugh
