    Hey everyone. I’d like to thank you all for the support lately. It’s blown me away and we’re about to hit 10k subs soon, which is INSANE. Again, thank you! Next vid will cover 3D All Stars speedruns (including Sunshine and Galaxy) so look forward to that! Been busy with midterm exams so I apologize for making y’all wait.

      Hey man be careful with the new switch version of DKC2 and Mario64. The controllers timing is off and the D-pad is acting screwy. Just thought I would warn you and anyone else thinking about getting the game. It's still good. You will just have to readjust to the timing for everything.

      I suspect Nintendo didn’t know about it either, but they realised while updating it that they accidentally didn’t include a backwards speed cap, and added one, patching out the BLJ. People often talk about it as Nintendo patching the BLJ specifically, to target speedrunners, but really it was just fixing a minor mistake that just so happened to kill the BLJ (and other glitches).

    Some scans of the December '96 Japanese "Super Mario 64 Complete Clear Guide Book" came out today, and you can see on page 135 a clear documentation of the use of the BLJ to skip the endless staircase! I know the internet wasn't widespread back then but its amazing how long this trick flew under the consciousness of (particularly) westerners given how long it was known about, given its usefulness and eventual infamy.

      I know it's a joke, but serious talk just in case anyone reading this takes it seriously (because the internet can bring out the worst in people)...
      A half-A press is a naming convention for minimal A-press runs - it refers to an A-press that's only necessary in an individual star run and can simply be piggy-backed off a previous A-press in a full-game run.
      Example: Swimming in Dire Dire Docks requires you to press and hold the A-button, but in a full-game run you can hold the A-button from the star select screen to avoid the extra A-press at the start of the level, whereas you can't in an individual star run. Thus, it's called a "half-A-press".

  • @blank_e1
    @blank_e1 4 роки тому +3

    To expand on the endless staircase, the actual reason why his speed built up past the teleport was because the game recognises mario’s movements in quatersteps (if there is a wall or something like a teleporting trigger between quarterstep number 2 and 3, the game will bring you to quarterstep 1, then 2, then put you at the wall). This made it so mario’s first quarterstep reached all the way past the teleporting trigger and since quarterstep #1 was past the teleporting trigger, the game had no other choice but to bring mario to the first quarterstep

    Parallel universes blew my mind, as a brand new SM64 player. I’m a big Halo guy, and the edges of the maps in the Halo games are “existence barriers,” which is the edge of where anything at all can exist. Pass it somehow, and you despawn and then respawn like you died. So how/why do these parallel universes exist in SM64? It’s so cool investigating differences between game engines and physics!

    Its so awesome how people even discover those glitches. The rabbit glitch is awesome too. I mean, what are people thinking? "Lets try to glitch through that door by placing the rabbit in the corner"? Haha. So awesome. But the most ridilous one is the blj to the first browser lvl. I mean... WTF?!

      Another thing he got incorrect was Shindou's pronunciation. You pronounce it as if the u was silent, so "shin-d*oh*", not "shin-d*oo*". It's a pretty common mistake that affects other Japanese stuff too, e.g. people pronouncing Madou Monogatari like "Madoo Monogatari". It's basically like ignoring or barely pronouncing the Us in character names like Josuke Higashigata, Sasuke Uchiha, Zamasu (non-dub), etc.

    Little tip: Everyone knows what the subscribe button does, and people are not going to do it just because you ask them to. Begging like that actually just causes irritation.

    To be honest, Super Mario 64 speedrunning and specifically all the BLJ tricks are what got me interested in Mario 64 in the first place, and probably even in the entire series.
    So although it’s just a silly glitch and was never meant to be in the game, I am so glad it exist.
