Game is small as hell (25ish MB if memory serves), way easier to just put a 5 minute limit on top a set save file than alter the source code (which they probably don't even have any more) to make an actual demo
You would be surprised that learn they might have still have it, since they commented very comfortably about answering the questions about the game in the interview with them talking about a possible online subscription service. Also surprisingly they sold the source of the 5 minute demo of the game online, which is apparently just a regular game with specialized coding on the cartridge to hook up to the Brawl demo version once played at all. They also made a bonus disc containing the game for Nintendo GameCube, which means that they at least had the source code then to make it. The back story behind the creation of the game is very deep and personal to them as well. They explained further in a real interview that took place around 1999, if I am recalling correctly. They have conducted a lot of interviews likely without alerting the public that they have even done them. One of them in particular was conducted right before going to E3 for that particular year. A completely different Nintendo rep when being interviewed about a completely different subjecf matter said at the end of the interview that he hoped that the interview could be found later to be shared with permission granted in the interview to be found if possible given the amount of potential interviews that will eventually be done by the company as a whole. They really know how to talk comfortably and professionally when it comes to topics of discussion, though they also like to joke around to at times as well; even the jokes are professionally thought out knowing that they will be typed up to be viewed at later. They have at least 20 years of doing interviews maybe under their belt, and are perfectly open to talk about any topic that is on their mind, as long it follows the rules protocols.
It's because the demos were supposed to be there to entice you to buy the games from the Shop Channel so you could play the whole game. They probably never expected that people would find all these crazy glitches and implement them into this five minute demo to be able to beat the game within it.
Because it's a lot easier to stick the ROM (only 32MB) on there than try and trim it off for no reason which may just end up breaking the game completely.
I remember as a kid I loved playing demo games on my xbox 360, there was this one really cool game called Charlie Murder that had a demo that ended when the first boss does a special move, BUT if you knocked him down so the boss was unable to perform the end demo screen you could play the entire game without saving, and to this day that has been the coolest thing I ever did in a video game.
I REMEMBER CHARLIE MURDER! and I didn't know that its demo's end screen was tied to a specific move. I guess they should've thought that one through a little harder?
I love ocarina of time speedruns. I other games it's like: "you can shoot through a wall here because the hitbox isn't quite right" etc. In ocarina it's: "well if you drop a fish in this corner of this room then explode yourself and hold an invisible shrub at juuuust the right angle you can teleport."
More like: If you backflip while scooping with the bottle, while pulling out the ocarina and falling in the teleport after the first boss, you teleport the the end game credits.
Honestly. Just Zelda speedruns in general seem to break the game. They are so precisely stupid that no person will ever actually learn they can do it without the internet. Especially the 17 hour low% run of TP.
I might be wrong at this point but I think the way people found how the timer works there's no real way to stop it or pause it because nintendo made damn fucking sure it works on a whole other out-of-bounds system, so you can buy the same game for the 5th time ^^
This kinda just illustrates how dumb the whole meme format always was, cause what, is the person actively playing Brawl when the shithead doctor decides to give their comedically late bad news?

A dev: we linked the orbit of the moon to the display on the clock so that the moon travels across the sky as time passes at night. Speed runner: anyway, the way that this is calculated actually means that by hitting clocks under a full moon wearing love heart underpants and a sparkly tiara while backflipping, you can kill the final boss.
I like to think that this is actually the way the game should be played. The Hero of Time (he has to do things fast) was actually a sorcerer that did magic rituals involving fish, herbs and black powder, to counter the forces of evil.

Hey, might I suggest watching the a speedrun video titled "Paper Mario by JCog in 26:12 - Summer Games Done Quick 2021 Online"? I think it's a contender, though your mileage may vary.
I remember people debating wether or not Glitchless vs. Glitched was cheating when I was a kid. Fifteen years later, I don't care about the argument, I'm just glad it exists. Without it, _we wouldn't get stuff like this_
@@ToastyTastyPancakes from where it was a decade ago, It's grown in participants, but to a smaller percentage of the community. There's still multiple times the amount of glitchless new runs a year than when I was starting :)
Yeah the debate was hot especially because we didn't what was a glitch or not, like for some people it was an unintentional mechanic but then an lot of movement options aren't even intentional to begin with.
I remerber back in the day there was a Sonic speedrun and people on youtube called that guy a cheater for using glitches there was even a comment that went something like that „Why dont you use the level select code to make another fake record“
Well, you see, it works using SRMpecter/meltdown combined with a stale avatar preimage-afterimage dereferencer, so you just need to throw a fish at a wall with a velocity of exactly 0x1337 and you've got it
It would be so cool if there was a way to execute code or something to be able to completely get rid of the 5 minute time limit, creating a very inconvient method to have the whole game
That's probably possible, people have already hacked Brawl itself and homebrewed their Wiis for a long time by making the stage builder read and execute files from their SD card. Though at that point, if you can just set up the code on an SD card that type of run would lose its novelty
there's definitely a gecko os code out there that disables the time limit for all of the demos. though at that point ya might as well just get the game running on a n64 emulator on the wii
@@Jack_Woods I can understand why they shut it down so hard. When people are “emulating” new switch games the day they come out or even before they come out like with Dread, I can see why Nintendo gets antsy
can also beat the Majora's Mask preview demo, the demo ends once you get the remains, but there is a glitch to get out of the cutscene, getting the remains without getting booted out. You also start with Oath to Order on most demo selections, and coupled with bombs and hookshot, just go to the 4 temples and beat them fast as possible, do the glitch 4 times, then go to majora. The game crashes just before the "Dawn of a New Day" so you can't see credits. This is because the game tries to save, but you are not on a save file.
Brawl demos were truly a final tribute to classic demos. I wish game in modern days would just put retro games in for free again. Also much respect for Animal Crossing on Gamecube for adding complete NES games.
I know some of the MGS games have fully playable versions of the older games in the franchise, mostly for the sake of either being there for story relevance reasons, or just so that said game within a game actually has a port to the newer platforms.
I remember playing the 5-minute trial, trying to play as much of Ocarina of Time as possible. I'm so glad to see that I wasn't the only one trying to beat the game in 5 minutes.
Explaining SRM: "The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is."
reading this paragraph and trying to make sense of it gave me a headache [EDIT: this comment was made before I decided to sit down and watch this video 😵]
It's honestly incredible to me that they included the FULL game at all. Like it could've so easily been something like "Oh you can play as long as you want but the game ends after X loading zone or Y checkpoint," but they really put the whole thing into Brawl
Honestly it would have taken way more time and effort to trim down to just a demo. Easier to just slap the entire file in there and call it a day. N64 ROMs are tiny, so it wouldn't make a meaningful impact on Brawl's file size.
They’re just VC ROMs, there was no point in creating special demo ROMs for Brawl. Metal Gear Solid 4’s demo was made especially, prior to the game’s release.
They didn't because you can't buy retro games on the virtual console on switch. No pint in putting out a demo when they want you to buy nintendo online
As somone very invested in OoT Speedrunning a lot of these videos can miss a lot and honestly seem kinda lazy at times with the details they miss, but not this one. This video is genuinely fantastic, fantastic job!
I'd barely qualify this as a speedrun as it's more similar to just breaking the game even if they then try to break it fast. To each their own, but I rather watch a glitchless speedrun or at least one without major glitches that shows actual skills.
@@hullie7529 you do realize that the inputs done here are very precise, sometimes several frame-perfect inputs in a row? I do get that people don't like to watch these runs because they don't show a lot of the game, but saying that there's no "actual skill" involved proves how little you know about this. (also shows by you not wanting to call it a speedrun, because every run that aims to beat the game as fast as possible is a speedrun by definition).
I bought this game in 1998, was so overwhelmed by it, I never touched it. It sat in storage until last year when I started playing it on my n64. It took me months of frustration, getting stuck in various places, mini bosses, bosses, side quests, and temples, but I finally finished it last week with 20 pieces of heart ❤️. I was so proud of myself, and then I saw these people. I didn’t understand a technical word that was said in this video and I don’t know a thing about codes, etc. But damn you guys are good! Hats off to you! Well done!
I first played the 1.0 version of the game in 2008/9 on my dad’s old N64. I had trouble with it, taking nearly half a year to beat it, but when I finally did it was one of the best memories from my childhood. Even though I needed help in some parts (my mum beat Ganon tennis for me) it was and still is one of my favourite games of all time. I was too scared to play Majora’s Mask as a kid, so it took until I was 13 to finally beat it on the 3DS. Truly an amazing series of games.
No I didn’t, it came with a package of games, when I bought my N64, at the time I was 19 and wasn’t even into Zelda, I didn’t even play it on the NES, but my siblings liked it and they played it, and then throughout my university and early career years, I stopped console gaming altogether. It wasn’t until a few years ago that I pulled out my consoles out of storage, and started wanting to try all these games that I owned. I finished a LTTP on the SNES, and then it was time for OoT. They became two of my favourite games of all time. I ended up buying Zelda 1 & 2 on the NES as well… currently playing Breath of the wild…
Great job. It's an awesome game. I stopped playing a few years ago when my joystick was so spent I couldn't beat dampe. I just got a new controller but not sure if I'm ready to ruin it so soon.
I was there watching zfg defeat the temple bosses on the brawl demo. It only came to be because he was messing around with a second-hand Wii's save files, it was nothing more than a joke at the time. I would have never thought that it would spark the determination of speedrunners to actually attempt to beat the game within the constraints of the demo, wow
@@Mima_the_vengeful_spirit It was 3 minutes in Brawl. There’s no way you can beat the game that fast. That said, Super Mario World is perfectly doable. You get two minutes, and the world record for 0 exit is 41.022 seconds.
this is absolutely insane, and despite me not really understanding the technical aspects, your presentation of it left me feeling like I could at least get it on a more general level. amazing work!
@@Tunnelenjoyer Uhhh... no My problem is that I replied to the completely wrong comment lmao. I was suppossed to reply to a comment about the Wind Waker demo on Zelda Collector's edition. however, I somehow posted it to the wrong place, hense why i wrote 20 minute timer instead of 5 minute. How I fucked up like this IDK, but yeah.
I've always been fascinated by speedrunning. The tricks used for some games left me scratching my head and asking myself "how the hell did they figure that out?".
The fact that in that universe speedrunning is reality manipulation caused by what an npc would describe As a child's "special behavior" is kinda hilarious
"Why's that kid running around with his arms above his head?" *kid starts defying physics and hurtling through the woods before warping out of reality entirely* "oh."
I love how every video that includes SRM has to have an obligatory description of what SRM is and how it works because there is no guarantee that every viewer has seen another video that describes it. It makes for a bit of humorous redundancy for me when I grind through a ton of these sorts of videos in a short time frame.
I'm slowly gaining more competence in understanding the programming structure of video games, it's just a lapse of comprehension. Your explanations were very helpful! The little visuals and not cutting corners in research helps me get it a lot clearer.
Link: "The laws of time are mine!" Zelda: "You mean being able to return to the past in the Temple of Time? I'm not sure I'd go quite that far-" Link: *slides past a bush, falls down a hole, and the world instantly becomes already saved*
I heard about the terminology used before in the video, but I still do not fully understand how to pull it off. Maybe if I played very frequently, which is likely the only way that the speed runners are even able to speed run the game at all, I would be able to pull off these kinds of stunts.
Brawl was my first Smash game, and even though I wasn't able to play the OoT demo on it due to lack of the special controllers, i still thought it was rather upsetting that the time limit displayed was 5 minutes. Now all these years later and they actually BEAT the time trial game... Wow lmao
You did such a great Job with the music to make it... Idk atmospheric I guess, especially Fi's theme at the end. When I heard this the first time after beating the game when I was like 9 or 10, combined with the cutscene itself it made me so emotional and as far as I know I even had a few tears in my eyes... That's 10 Years ago, it's just crazy what happened in that time, in my case way more negative then positive stuff but it still amazes me how much a life can change ^^ Great Video, the concept of a speedrun where you have a time limit and have to find out how to beat it within that time is odd and awesome at the same time! :D

@@BionicalSoul I'm not denying it happens in OoT, I'm saying the phrasing of Carnage_808's comment made what they were trying to say less clear than it could have been.
It took us 20 years, yet the ancient gorons knew 14:30 . They painted their walls with Gorons doing SRM yet we were blind for so long.
Nice

Genius comment.
This might be the funniest thing I have ever read in a UA-cam comment. Kudos sir, holy shit lol
The prophecy has been fufilled.
"stale fish code" is not something I expected to hear completely unironically.
Same with "fish overlay"
I did not believe this comment that those words would be said completely unironically when they came up in the video, but by Jove they were!

I never knew speed running was so technical. For a brief moment during this video I felt like I was in physics AP again.

Beating a game that gives you so little time the devs straight up had no intention of the player being even remotely close to being able to beat it? Not even to mention on an extremely popular speed game, where for decades even the fastest runner was three times too slow? Thats speedrunning history right there

Hi
why are you on every video i watch
big props to the person who asked if this was possible and inspired them to do it.
I love that the whole thing was basically a world class One Guy derail.
"Yo, let's just put an entire game in our new game"
N64 games are extremely light, besides, it's a lot easier to implement a timer on the emulator than modifying the game's source code
as someone already said the sheer fact that the whole game has been loaded in the cartridge is crazy but what blows my mind is how dedicated a comunity must be to achieve something like "speedrunning a game in a demo"
Lol yeah “crazy they fit a 25mb into a 8.6gb disc” yeah how crazy…
@@lacasadelvideojuego3880 it's less of "wow i cant believe that the 25mb game file is in an 8.6gb disc" and more of a "this is a _demo_ for a game, why is the entire game here and not just a small segment of it"
@@smolbrendan5978 because thatd be a lot more work to strip out things then youd think
@@jh302 yeah, pretty sure the only thing done was just give the rom a time limit

The Brawl demo speedrun will forever be the most impressive speed run I have ever witness. You gamers keep pushing the limits and I'm all here for it!
Hey, might I suggest watching the a speedrun video titled "Paper Mario by JCog in 26:12 - Summer Games Done Quick 2021 Online"? I think it's a contender, though your mileage may vary.
Listening to the jargon in this video felt like I was a preschooler being tossed into an advanced class on quantum physics.
🤣
I hate that I don't even follow speedrunning very well and understood way more of this than I expected. The jargon has claimed me
I remember people debating wether or not Glitchless vs. Glitched was cheating when I was a kid.
Fifteen years later, I don't care about the argument, I'm just glad it exists. Without it, _we wouldn't get stuff like this_
Yeah, nowadays I haven't seen any of that, understandably, considering how crazy glitched runs can get.
@@ToastyTastyPancakes from where it was a decade ago, It's grown in participants, but to a smaller percentage of the community. There's still multiple times the amount of glitchless new runs a year than when I was starting :)
Yeah the debate was hot especially because we didn't what was a glitch or not, like for some people it was an unintentional mechanic but then an lot of movement options aren't even intentional to begin with.
always very odd to me that debate haha
I remerber back in the day there was a Sonic speedrun and people on youtube called that guy a cheater for using glitches there was even a comment that went something like that „Why dont you use the level select code to make another fake record“
100 years from now: "We have a new Ocarina speedrunning record of 3 nanoseconds. This should last at least a couple months."
😂😂😂😂
Well, you see, it works using SRMpecter/meltdown combined with a stale avatar preimage-afterimage dereferencer, so you just need to throw a fish at a wall with a velocity of exactly 0x1337 and you've got it
LMAOOOOO
In 150 years we found a strat to actually gain time by beating the game in -0.86 seconds
There actually is a SMB3 TAS that lasts less than half a second, so who knows?
I swear speedruns feel like an elaborate prank on all the people who don’t full understand the glitches
It would be so cool if there was a way to execute code or something to be able to completely get rid of the 5 minute time limit, creating a very inconvient method to have the whole game
That's probably possible, people have already hacked Brawl itself and homebrewed their Wiis for a long time by making the stage builder read and execute files from their SD card.
Though at that point, if you can just set up the code on an SD card that type of run would lose its novelty
there's definitely a gecko os code out there that disables the time limit for all of the demos. though at that point ya might as well just get the game running on a n64 emulator on the wii
“SSBB OoT 100% speedrun”
It'd be a nice clap back for trying so hard to shut down emulation and even now bringing us overpriced low quality ports
@@Jack_Woods I can understand why they shut it down so hard. When people are “emulating” new switch games the day they come out or even before they come out like with Dread, I can see why Nintendo gets antsy

Same and nice Username
How would it ironically use the fish number?
@@afruit6720 by using fish number
But ironically
the only demo in existence that you can ACTUALLY beat.
I'm pretty sure you can also beat the Kirby's Adventure demo in Brawl, but not Mario World
can also beat the Majora's Mask preview demo, the demo ends once you get the remains, but there is a glitch to get out of the cutscene, getting the remains without getting booted out. You also start with Oath to Order on most demo selections, and coupled with bombs and hookshot, just go to the 4 temples and beat them fast as possible, do the glitch 4 times, then go to majora. The game crashes just before the "Dawn of a New Day" so you can't see credits. This is because the game tries to save, but you are not on a save file.
Brawl demos were truly a final tribute to classic demos. I wish game in modern days would just put retro games in for free again.
Also much respect for Animal Crossing on Gamecube for adding complete NES games.
Oh, I know! Half of the time I spend in GC AC is playing NES Pinball
I know some of the MGS games have fully playable versions of the older games in the franchise, mostly for the sake of either being there for story relevance reasons, or just so that said game within a game actually has a port to the newer platforms.
Only one I can think of is Doom Eternal having Doom 1 & 2 able to be played. And if you're on PC you can just have the files for them to take
Link: is finally defeating ganon
The game: Yeah your free trial has ended
The real downfall timeline
So this is where the "Defeat" path (that leads to Link's Awakening, Zelda 1, and others) in the Zelda timeline comes from.
And Link was not able to deliver the final blow to Ganon
it's like finishing the series you wanted to watch in the week free trial

Dude i got to admit i didnt expect this video to be so incredibly structured and i really appreciate your articulation. Quality content!
Explaining SRM: "The missile knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't. By subtracting where it is from where it isn't, or where it isn't from where it is (whichever is greater), it obtains a difference, or deviation. The guidance subsystem uses deviations to generate corrective commands to drive the missile from a position where it is to a position where it isn't, and arriving at a position where it wasn't, it now is."
Tldr
reading this paragraph and trying to make sense of it gave me a headache [EDIT: this comment was made before I decided to sit down and watch this video 😵]
Brain hurt
Least complex speedrun strat
@@__Theta__ missile moves or something
It's honestly incredible to me that they included the FULL game at all. Like it could've so easily been something like "Oh you can play as long as you want but the game ends after X loading zone or Y checkpoint," but they really put the whole thing into Brawl
Honestly it would have taken way more time and effort to trim down to just a demo. Easier to just slap the entire file in there and call it a day. N64 ROMs are tiny, so it wouldn't make a meaningful impact on Brawl's file size.
Crazy that they included the entire games for these demos. I always thought they were handled similarly to how MGS4 handled it’s demo.
They’re just VC ROMs, there was no point in creating special demo ROMs for Brawl.
Metal Gear Solid 4’s demo was made especially, prior to the game’s release.
Mom: “ayo dinner in 5 minutes”
Save: “yeah lemme beat ocarina of time real quick”

I can't believe they never brought these demos back in ultimate. I remember trying to see how far I could get in some of the NES titles as a kid.
Perhaps they caught on to the fact people could do stuff like this and decided to shit all over their fun
@@Helios2737this happened years after ultimates release
They didn't because you can't buy retro games on the virtual console on switch. No pint in putting out a demo when they want you to buy nintendo online
As somone very invested in OoT Speedrunning a lot of these videos can miss a lot and honestly seem kinda lazy at times with the details they miss, but not this one.
This video is genuinely fantastic, fantastic job!
Games before: we put a second game into the game so you can game while you game
Games now: here's a 70 gig mandatory update before you can play
Poor Ganon, he goes through all this effort to conquer Hyrule only for some kid lifting some bushes undoes all his plans in less than 5 minutes.
Yep, uh-huh, "fish overlay", gotcha. I definitely understand all of this.
Speedrunners in OoT are essentially modern mathematicians at this point. This has gone so far beyond playing the game well. It's barely recognizable.
Unlike regular mathematicians, who went extinct in the 1940s
We call them, programmers.
@@Rotem_S Thank you for this lol
I'd barely qualify this as a speedrun as it's more similar to just breaking the game even if they then try to break it fast. To each their own, but I rather watch a glitchless speedrun or at least one without major glitches that shows actual skills.
@@hullie7529 you do realize that the inputs done here are very precise, sometimes several frame-perfect inputs in a row? I do get that people don't like to watch these runs because they don't show a lot of the game, but saying that there's no "actual skill" involved proves how little you know about this. (also shows by you not wanting to call it a speedrun, because every run that aims to beat the game as fast as possible is a speedrun by definition).
I didn't get out of bed today thinking that I would hear the phrase "fish overlay" in a serious manner.
I bought this game in 1998, was so overwhelmed by it, I never touched it. It sat in storage until last year when I started playing it on my n64. It took me months of frustration, getting stuck in various places, mini bosses, bosses, side quests, and temples, but I finally finished it last week with 20 pieces of heart ❤️. I was so proud of myself, and then I saw these people. I didn’t understand a technical word that was said in this video and I don’t know a thing about codes, etc. But damn you guys are good! Hats off to you! Well done!
I first played the 1.0 version of the game in 2008/9 on my dad’s old N64. I had trouble with it, taking nearly half a year to beat it, but when I finally did it was one of the best memories from my childhood. Even though I needed help in some parts (my mum beat Ganon tennis for me) it was and still is one of my favourite games of all time. I was too scared to play Majora’s Mask as a kid, so it took until I was 13 to finally beat it on the 3DS. Truly an amazing series of games.
Now try Majora's Mask.
You bought one of the greatest games ever and didn’t play it for 21 years?
No I didn’t, it came with a package of games, when I bought my N64, at the time I was 19 and wasn’t even into Zelda, I didn’t even play it on the NES, but my siblings liked it and they played it, and then throughout my university and early career years, I stopped console gaming altogether. It wasn’t until a few years ago that I pulled out my consoles out of storage, and started wanting to try all these games that I owned. I finished a LTTP on the SNES, and then it was time for OoT. They became two of my favourite games of all time. I ended up buying Zelda 1 & 2 on the NES as well… currently playing Breath of the wild…
Great job. It's an awesome game. I stopped playing a few years ago when my joystick was so spent I couldn't beat dampe. I just got a new controller but not sure if I'm ready to ruin it so soon.
I was there watching zfg defeat the temple bosses on the brawl demo. It only came to be because he was messing around with a second-hand Wii's save files, it was nothing more than a joke at the time. I would have never thought that it would spark the determination of speedrunners to actually attempt to beat the game within the constraints of the demo, wow

Well researched and well presented. Thank you for doing OoT justice as our community is usually misrepresented and lacking in detail.
I love how every video that includes SRM has to have an obligatory description of what SRM is and how it works because there is no guarantee that every viewer has seen another video that describes it. It makes for a bit of humorous redundancy for me when I grind through a ton of these sorts of videos in a short time frame.
I've always wondered how much content those demos actually had, I never thought they were the full games though. That's actually kinda crazy 🤣
I'm slowly gaining more competence in understanding the programming structure of video games, it's just a lapse of comprehension. Your explanations were very helpful! The little visuals and not cutting corners in research helps me get it a lot clearer.
Smash: Here's 5 min a demo of our game buy it when a remaster comes out?
Speedrunners: beat it, no need
Gotta love how speed runners figured out how to beat the time limit, rather than look for a way to bypass/overcome it!
Probably easier than attempting to crack the timer
Warping to the credits through suicide is hilarious, because Link dying is a Canon ending because of the split 3 way timeline!
So in the third timeline link was a speedrunner makes perfect sense.

I love how the video is over 4 times longer than the actual demo
I'm lost with all the terms here, but still this is cool as hell
I heard about the terminology used before in the video, but I still do not fully understand how to pull it off. Maybe if I played very frequently, which is likely the only way that the speed runners are even able to speed run the game at all, I would be able to pull off these kinds of stunts.
This is one of the best made videos of the year. Thanks to everyone involved 👍
Nope
Your comment is so trippy
Brawl was my first Smash game, and even though I wasn't able to play the OoT demo on it due to lack of the special controllers, i still thought it was rather upsetting that the time limit displayed was 5 minutes. Now all these years later and they actually BEAT the time trial game... Wow lmao
I did this back in the day when it released but only beat the first dungeon so props to them to doing the whole game
did a whole dungeon in 5 min not bad though!
I remember being a kid and wondering if this was possible.. glad to see the speedrunning community came through again. Gg guys
the amount of research that must have gone into this is insane thanks for the video.
15:14 Saying this sentence 50 years ago would end with you in a mental hospital
I love the inspirational music that plays during the speedruns, like I'm watching a baby eagle spread its wings for the first time or something
Brawl: the time trial will end in 5 minutes
Speedrunners: and who decided that?
I will be the one who decides
i feel blessed to have lived such a time where i can witness such wondrous things as this
You did such a great Job with the music to make it... Idk atmospheric I guess, especially Fi's theme at the end. When I heard this the first time after beating the game when I was like 9 or 10, combined with the cutscene itself it made me so emotional and as far as I know I even had a few tears in my eyes...
That's 10 Years ago, it's just crazy what happened in that time, in my case way more negative then positive stuff but it still amazes me how much a life can change ^^
Great Video, the concept of a speedrun where you have a time limit and have to find out how to beat it within that time is odd and awesome at the same time! :D
