As a 37 year old man who very vividly remembers when my older brother and I got the Nintendo for Christmas, who spent that whole Christmas Break playing Super Mario, Duck Hunt, and Clayshooter, it is a very strange feeling watching some kid like a decade younger than me explaining how to play Super Mario at the top level. Me and my brother used to race to see who could beat the game faster, using the same warps but no strategy other than 'gotta go fast.'(sorry Sonic)
I did the wall jump the very first time I tried it; not even knowing how I was supposed to achieve it. I have never been able to do it since. Beginner's luck.
Since i discovered your channel i have always wanted to get into speed running of any mario game, i started with odyssey but it takes me about 2 hours to beat the game but this is perfect, it takes less than 10 minutes and everything is very fun to execute so thanks kosmic, congratulations for getting the wr of the lost levels :D
Omg you got the speedrun record for making a Mario Bros Speedrun tutorial! Sub 43:00 😱😱 I’ve been looking into speed running and what better game to try and run first than the original Mario? Amazing video. Not overly descriptive it’s the perfect amount of descriptive. 👏👏 well done.
Hey,came here to say this:I never had a nes or any type of console when I was young,so I couldn't enjoy the super Mario series(also,my country was behind a lot and had more rip offs than originals),but today I managed to finish Super Mario Bros on an emulator.I used the warp zones and along the way I pulled some tricks I never knew I can get.Kosmic,you,darbian and other speedruners made me play this game,and it's one of the ones that never gets old,and always gives you a challenge. EDIT:I JUST REALIZED I DID THIS ON MAR10 DAY!!!
I GOT 4:59.174 This tutorial helped a lot, and my entire inspiration to speedrun came from you. Don’t know what I’d be doing if I wasn’t in the speedrunning community. I will probably go for 4:58 and maybe even 4:57 one day, but I can finally rest in peace knowing I got sub 5, and the grind is done.
Does it matter how you hit the axe? I imagine the axe's hitbox is square like everything else, so it would be faster to hit the front edge than the top. But it would kinda suck to have a perfect run and then lose a couple of frames because you hit the top of the axe, especially if Bowser's pattern necessitates it.
You want to hit the axe as far left as possible and will lose 1 frame for each pixel farther to the right you land on it. There are about 4 spots you can land on the axe without losing any time.
I love how he makes these frame perfect jumps like "oh yeah, just breathe and then blink" and i'm like "breathe in, breathe out, now it's time to blink" i'm like a potato or a SPUD
If anybody’s reading this comments six years after the video. I have a setup for the first 8-1 pipe jump. Once you get in between the first vertical and horizontal parts on the gate you can do a full jump to get by the two trees, if you do another full jump here you can jump on the back of the pipe with a slightly tight timing.
Been playing this loads recently and have got down to about 8:15. Still not managed a deathless run yet so I know if I can do that I’ll be under 8 minutes easy which I’d be really happy with. Maybe with these tips I can aim even higher (lower?). The more I play the more I love this game. You are a legend Kosmic and I find watching your runs inspirational!
If anyone is having trouble with the 1-2 smallest jump, I recommend using two fingers like a keyboard and put your index finger on B and middle finger on A. Then flick your middle finger downwards, almost like scraping the A button. It helps a lot. 👍
Man im LOVING your videos, your knowledge is on point!! Desperate to learn this game inside out. No powerPak yet which i can see is totally worth it for the save points.
wow u r my hero man.. not just because of ur game which is lit by the way.. but u r so helping and kind personality.. this world needs more people like u.. bless you man :)
I have to say thank you for 6 months ive been grinding this game and ive been using this tutorial and finally 4:59.440 its been a journey and im not done just yet:)
Fun fact: once Mario starts swimming in a direction, he'll keep swimming in that direction without you holding a directional input. For example, once Mario swims right a few times, you don't have to hold down right. He'll still swim forward even if you keep pressing the A button. This can be useful for going under the fire bar where the ground is in 8-4 water, as well as walking to the pipe. Just note that Mario maintains his current acceleration while swimming without direction, so once you touch the ground you'll have to press right to swim at top speed again.
It's a trick I use all the time, and sometimes whenever I play a newer Mario game I let go of the d-pad and then forget that you can only use that trick in the older games.
Love this Kosmic! I might actually try this run after watching this. Is there a cheap enough way to get save states? Seems like it's almost necessary to get your time down
Tanner Cole you could get Wii U virtual console I think, or you could get a nes classic with built in save states. I’d recommend not to do runs on virtual console tho because of the frame rate
When I try to do this 3 bump method lately, I think that it is cool to do it like the way you demonstrate faster, but do the last bump to the next pile of ? blocks. Sometimes I just cannot see our favorite red plumber hitting the wall, but he did move right. Also, I find it very difficult to do the second jump to the pipe and I often hit the pipe and get eaten by the plant.
Great vid dude, used to play through Pokémon games quicker than my mates but have been messing around with speed running Mario lately, playing on the Switch with the rewind function is really helpful. After Mario hopefully I’ll have the courage to jump into Super Metroid. Keep it up!
Been speedrunning this for a few months and decided to give this video another watch. I actually learned a couple things I hadn't picked up on before 😊
if killing the hammer bros in the entry of 8-3 is hard, you can actually bump into the pipe and go the bottom route while the hammer bros are in the middle and top route. Play as usual until the next 3 - route ( idk what its called) take the bottom route as the hammer bros jump from the bottom route to the middle one as you got close to it. Play the rest of the level as usual and in the end, you dont need to slow down or bump into the block, just do a little jump onto the last block, do a full jump, grab the top of the flagpole ( since you already slowed down by bumping into the pipe) I just discovered that today and hope you find this useful
I play on a RetroUSB AVS. I don't know if there's a frame-rate difference, but as far as I can tell it plays just like an NES, with no noticeable lag. It also has a Game Genie engine built into it, which comes in handy when practicing.
Just to mention (I still not finish to watch the video), but: The NES Everdrive also does savestates (yes, way more simpler than powerpak savestates) so if you have one, you can use it to practice too.
Amazing tutorial and thanks a lot! I have a problem on 8-1 though. I do the pipe jumps and don’t kill anything before then but the 3 koopas don’t appear. Is there anything very small and specific I have to be doing? Also, does the time matter for them to arrange in s line? Thanks!
31:58 Damn, I was practicing 8-4 and I didn’t even know how to do it so I did it blindly and manage to pull off the clip but not the jump 5 times, did the jump but not into the pipe like 3 times and fully success it like 2 times. But with your 2 frame setup, I managed to do it 90% of the time, holy moly Thanks!
Ross Yenerich thanks for the kind words :) I remember being really distracted and my brain was all over the place when you asked your question, sorry for the scatter brained response lol.
I started watching summoning salt which lead me here. I've been trying some weakass attempts in the last 2 days at my own speedrun at Mario 1. I still haven't gotten under 7 minutes. This was the exact walk through I needed.
Do you know if the NES mini is sufficient to use? I'm not going for sub 5 at this point, I'm in no way a speed guy, at least yet. But I am giving it attempts lately, level by level. Just thought I'd ask your opinion
I use the switch nes emulator with the pro controller. I wish I had the normal nes but I don’t and I always wanted to try out speedrunning. Always looked at speedrunning as an art do I decided to start with a game I see a lot of speedrunning on and it’s super Mario bros. Hope I get better with these instructions and have a good day
That's a completely different game. Fireworks work differently, many levels are changed slightly, several levels are replaced by levels from The Lost Levels, time counts down and gives you points after castle levels, the world 4 warp zone only goes to world 6, etc.
I have an emulator that is a console and looks like the nes and has like 30 games downloaded, are you able to use savestates on that, or what would I have to buy to be able to use savestates. Great video btw, this was very helpful
I was practicing Mario Bros using your tutorial and I was having a hard time with the jump in 8-2 in 23:17, but I figured out that I was doing a turnaround jump which made the jump after impossible. You should’ve said that you should jump in a way that you could slow down but not too much, AND not turnaround. Otherwise, great video!
@@wump4010 unfortunately you are not allowed to use luigi in speedrunning. Well I guess you can, but timing starts when you first get control as mario so the time it takes to kill mario is added on to your time.
Kosmic I’ve been trying to play this on my wii U using the crappy big handhold unit with the screen built in. I’m struggling to do pipe jumps, the tight koopa jump on 1-2 (followed by two goombas) and the stairs....it feels like there is a lag from when I hit the jump button. Have you ever played that the Wii U version like that? Just wondered if this is known as a difficult way to play it? If you do have some free time and you’re bored I’d really appreciate if you could look at my channel as I’ve just done a video starting to look at learning to speed running this game. Not trying to promote my channel as I only do all this for fun. Hope you had a great Christmas Kosmic. Happy new year for 2018. Will you be trying to break the record in 2018?
Kosmicd12 - wow thanks for the super fast Christmas reply. Much appreciated! Looks like I’ll have to find a CRT + NES then. I’ll be supporting your attempts for the record Kosmic! Good luck!
I CANNOT solve the puzzle of the trick explained at 23:03. I've yet to do it successfully. I'm almost positive I'm holding down left for too long, but I just can't figure out the perfect timing yet. Any alternate tips for this spot?
well if you want to you can just run full speed into the side of the pipe and then jump up as soon as you can. It will lose some significant time but you can still get a 4:59!
i watched u do the first pipe jump in 1-2, and i managed to replicate it on my first try. feels epic. tho i know i'm gonna have to try a million times to get it consistently
I just don't understand. I have a Coke, lava lamp, and a pizza yet somehow I can't beat the game in 5 minutes
Try speaking Spanish.
Well, did you also eat and drink it in the middle of the levels?
@@icewings_intotheclouds yes even had a hand off of the controller before 4-2 while holding a pizza slice.

Pasar* good sir
virtual console is slower? that moment an nes game has better framerate
Original hardware usually does. Pc emulators can go faster because they are heavier hardware but console emulators are poorly optimized
TheToasterbox hey so would the nes classic loose time too?
TotallyNotDoggo No. the NES classic’s emulation is pretty much the same as the NES
NES classic looses around .6 compared to an NES on a sub 5 run so it would be slower.
fps difference. NES classic and switch is 60fps, NES is around 60.0988~~

Do you know if the NES mini is sufficient to use? I'm not going for sub 5 at this point, I'm in no way a speed guy, at least yet. But I am giving it attempts lately, level by level. Just thought I'd ask your opinion
Is the NES Classic ok? I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to afford an actual NES..
HitzCritz actual nes is cheaper than nes classic :p
You can run on it but the input lag is gonna suck and you will lose time from the framerate.
Hitz critz your actually right a nes is 90 dollars and a nes classic is 60
Pizzakidfam 31 you didn't look hard enough
Kosmic your right I take that back :p
Kosmicd12 can you link me to a place where I can buy a original nes
Congratulations on the world record. Love this video. I will be trying for 5 seconds now. Let you know if I get it
How did you pause and reset to keep practicing?
Pause = Start
Reset = B + Select
Special cartridge. Has the same game, and allows to do said features to make it better for recording records
I use the switch nes emulator with the pro controller. I wish I had the normal nes but I don’t and I always wanted to try out speedrunning. Always looked at speedrunning as an art do I decided to start with a game I see a lot of speedrunning on and it’s super Mario bros. Hope I get better with these instructions and have a good day
When I was practicing to try a speedrun I got to 8-4 and did the wrong warp on accident and thought i broke the game
pokeboygaming 2 how you are into a level can actually change where the warp takes you. This is a glitch but people use it to their advantage
4-2 has it, it's fun
Well you basically did break the game
Thank you i needed the Trick with the stairs for Nintendo world champ. NES edition. After the Video it was very easy
So what exactly is different in the arcade switch version
That's a completely different game. Fireworks work differently, many levels are changed slightly, several levels are replaced by levels from The Lost Levels, time counts down and gives you points after castle levels, the world 4 warp zone only goes to world 6, etc.
Kosmicd12 alright thx
@@Kosmicd12 does he mean vs smb?
@@scuidthesquid yep
I have an emulator that is a console and looks like the nes and has like 30 games downloaded, are you able to use savestates on that, or what would I have to buy to be able to use savestates. Great video btw, this was very helpful
3:00
Prepare for the memes.
Roddy OH SHIT
Roddy ??
lol i get it XD
lol ryan's a 10 year old, he wont get it
i love how im young yet i still get it lmao
i know its old but this is a great tutorial Kosmic, well done
3:00
uh huh. so what do you recommend again?
I was practicing Mario Bros using your tutorial and I was having a hard time with the jump in 8-2 in 23:17, but I figured out that I was doing a turnaround jump which made the jump after impossible.
You should’ve said that you should jump in a way that you could slow down but not too much, AND not turnaround.
Otherwise, great video!
Is the NES Mini fine?
Kosmicd12 That means I have played on a slower version for a year now
i believe darbs 4:56.878 would be a 4:57.32 on NES mini
Lemon_ / invalidusername12 Obviously great to hear and thanks.
Np
CooperJW13 cuz they patched the glitches in the nes miNi
I am starting out speed running are you allowed to use Luigi for speed running.
Tolstoy I don’t even think Luigi is even in smb1
Second player
Idk
@@wump4010 unfortunately you are not allowed to use luigi in speedrunning. Well I guess you can, but timing starts when you first get control as mario so the time it takes to kill mario is added on to your time.
What about the Nintendo switch version, does that also run at a slower frame rate than the console version?
Yeah has the same problems
Great video thanks for your stuff. Been watching you quite a bit lately. How do you do your timing system for your games?
The timer is called livesplit
Thank you so much :)
37:55 mr. Cosmic the word you are looking for is buoyant ☺️ mr. mario is losing buoyancy faster.

Kosmic I’ve been trying to play this on my wii U using the crappy big handhold unit with the screen built in. I’m struggling to do pipe jumps, the tight koopa jump on 1-2 (followed by two goombas) and the stairs....it feels like there is a lag from when I hit the jump button. Have you ever played that the Wii U version like that? Just wondered if this is known as a difficult way to play it?
If you do have some free time and you’re bored I’d really appreciate if you could look at my channel as I’ve just done a video starting to look at learning to speed running this game. Not trying to promote my channel as I only do all this for fun.
Hope you had a great Christmas Kosmic. Happy new year for 2018. Will you be trying to break the record in 2018?
Kosmicd12 - wow thanks for the super fast Christmas reply. Much appreciated! Looks like I’ll have to find a CRT + NES then. I’ll be supporting your attempts for the record Kosmic! Good luck!
It’s easier I things like on the Nintendo Switch and using the actual game or arcade archives instead of emulators or virtual device
I CANNOT solve the puzzle of the trick explained at 23:03. I've yet to do it successfully. I'm almost positive I'm holding down left for too long, but I just can't figure out the perfect timing yet. Any alternate tips for this spot?
well if you want to you can just run full speed into the side of the pipe and then jump up as soon as you can. It will lose some significant time but you can still get a 4:59!
1:47 Mario posed like Jumpman.
The same thing
i watched u do the first pipe jump in 1-2, and i managed to replicate it on my first try. feels epic. tho i know i'm gonna have to try a million times to get it consistently
