I like how Conner manages to maintain a perfect middle ground between a serious review voice with a professional way to narrate things, and his usual casual conversational way of talking; it's a very cozy style.
Not me freaking out when ProtonJon popped up because I literally just got done watching TRG not long before watching this. I'm glad to know about the history of Kaizo now, because I had only ever heard about it before. It's kinda fun seeing people thrive for a challenge so much that they play something that's nearly impossible.
I've heard of the Kaizo mods for Mario games but I never played them. (I don't like to be stressed when playing video games, it defeats the purpose) I'm sure that the Kaizo theme influenced kaizo courses in the Mario Maker games though.
They are VERY tough and grueling to get through. But the feeling of clearing a particularly challenging level or hack is the most rewarding thing I've found in gaming because you fricken earned it.
Great video! Cant wait to watch more. No biggie but at 2:13 you said "Electric gaming monthly" the magazine was "Electronic Gaming Monthly." No biggie, keep making great videos
SMW Rom Hacks > Mario Maker I grew up playing these hacks on my jailbroken PSP so I could play them on the go. That shit was wild back then for me. Fun times man.
Kaizo Mario is something that probably would still exist even if you went back in time and stopped its original creator from making it. I've heard about it, I've seen gameplay of it, but I'll never play it or any levels from Mario Maker based off of it because it takes away the fun you're suppose to have with video games. I'll never understand why some folks want to torture themselves with level designs that look like the came from a crackhead. I'd like to *keep* my sanity, thank you very much.
Hey ConnerTheWaffle, here's an idea for a future ConnerTheWaffle video for all of your lovely ConnerTheWaffle fans out there; a ConnerTheWaffle feature-length-long multipart retrospective call: Conner's Sonic The Hedgehog Fan Games & ROM Hackstrospective Extravaganza!!!!
i remember playing a game like this (it was basically the same thing except a free browser game a mario game made to be bs as possible) this gave me so much nostalgia.
What's funny is that this romhack is now considered to be one of the easier of the difficult romhacks. there are LOADS of great hacks that are 3 or 4 times harder, with many many players skilled enough to beat them as well.
When i was a kid I used to have a good time with mario hacks like Demo World, TSRP but then i accidentally played "Luigi's Adventure". It was my biggest piece of suffering ive ever played as a 9 year old and its not kaizo.
I cannot fathom the amount of nostalgia your intro was able to awaken with the old youtube, internet explorer, and fucking azureblade49. I truly miss this early era of youtube so much. Curious if you ever watched Sonikdude101 (now Antdude92) and his early lets plays?
A few things that separates Kaizo Mario from the rest: - It can be completed by an expert platformer. However it will provide even the best players with a very stiff challenge (about as much challenge as we plebians face with a normal game) - The level design is very good. If you are in the top 0.1% of video game players it is a very fun game to play with very clever gameplay ideas. - The TAS are entertaining to watch. However for full enjoyment it's more entertaining to watch a "playthrough" TAS (which completes the levels as intended, with no regard for speed) than an optimized TAS. Very few Kaizo hacks score on all 3 fronts Something like Pit of Despair, Pit of Death, and Item Abuse 1-3 qualifies on the latter 2 fronts but no human can complete them. Not even with slowdowns and savestates
Hello my fellow Connor I am a og fan I'm pretty sure it was so long ago but when I click on your channel again I felt a big amount of nasolga I don't now when but I think it might have been right around 500 or so subs but I might be wrong but anyways I love your channel
I go back and forth enjoying to watch this stuff but given that the main players of it anymore don't get the frustration. They know all the tricks and techs so it's never a get stuck on a spot for very long. It is interesting sometimes but a lot of times it just seems boring especially with so many super Mario maker 2 creators being the same people.
No, no no no no don’t you dare accuse all of us of using save states to beat these rum hacks I’ve never once never ever ever once used to save state. My SD2SNES somehow wasn’t the Kirks version so the firmware on my SD2SNES doesn’t exist, nor do I want to download and screw up my flash cart so some of us just git gud
Sorry but Mario 3 is just way better. Snes is awesome yes. Better graphics but Marios toolkit was pretty much reduced to nothing . He got a spin jump and cape but lost 7 other abilities. And world sized seem reduced.
see "kaizo maro" IS NOT "kaizo mario world" "kaizo mario" was a mod of the ORIGINAL mario game on the NES "world" was a mod of "world", on the SNES two COMPLETELY DIFFERENT GAMES. also people were hacking games LONG BEFORE "lunar magic" or "super demo world" were even thought up. the entire premise of this video is flawed beyond imagining. i mean HELL the video that popularized the term "asshole mario" was a mario kaizo video, not a kaizo world video, and you dont even mention this fact at all.....
@@stapuft I did. Several times, actually. Found nothing about a kaizo mario for the NES that according to you, came out before Kaizo Mario World. The only thing similar I can think of is what is now simply called "cat mario", and that STILL came out after the Kaizo Mario World
@@HaxTheCharizard oh my god, how stupid can you be, LEARN TO READ, "kaizo mario" was BASED ON the original "mario bros" for the NES, it wasn't on the NES itself, how could you even think it was?
@@HaxTheCharizard the ORIGINAL kaizo mario game started in world 1-1 of mario 1, directly over a pit, leading to instant death, you have to jump, before the game even starts to even start playing. it was popularized in video form on "newgrounds" and other sites as a ~30 minute long video where you get to watch someone slowly go insane while playing a mario game, under the title "asshole mario", the video ends when he successfully beats stage 1-1, only to out what 1-2 has in store for him, causing him to rage quit.

Good, i hate the way youtubers just laugh for no reason, it makes me cringe
Man conner needs to continue doing this
4:59 released 1 day before all hell came lose
I actually love the kaizo mario rom hacks and it's really just amazing, also Merry Christmas Conner
Cool video bro , the frustration was real with this 1 🤣
Not me freaking out when ProtonJon popped up because I literally just got done watching TRG not long before watching this. I'm glad to know about the history of Kaizo now, because I had only ever heard about it before. It's kinda fun seeing people thrive for a challenge so much that they play something that's nearly impossible.
So Super Demo World was released on 9/10/2001..... one day before.
Man, this really took me back. Thank you.
That transition into ProtonJonSA's video hit me HARD.
I've heard of the Kaizo mods for Mario games but I never played them. (I don't like to be stressed when playing video games, it defeats the purpose) I'm sure that the Kaizo theme influenced kaizo courses in the Mario Maker games though.

Ah, The Memories.
Omg it's saster
I like how you rhymed "fans" and "hands" top tier work 9.8/10 Game of the Year
Waffles wit Mario. My favorite eye food
Conspiracy Theory: ROM hacking butterfly effect'd 9/11. Crazy the first rom hack released 9/10/01. Thanks a lot Game Genie.
Super Mario Maker: *Chuckles Evily* I’m basically Kaizo Mario 2
Fun Fact: Kaizo Mario World wasn't actually made to be played with playstates.
Before I saw Kaizo, I was introduced to Brutal Mario, a derivative of Kaizo Mario. Ever since then, I have taken some interest in Mario ROM hacking.
You’ve played brutal mario world, nice.
@@bingobo2551 Actually haven't played it. Just watched videos showcasing almost all of the bosses.
@@SmokeTheHorsehog you played brutal mario too, it was my first and favorite mario rom hack game ever
@@doumanepower-up6501 Like I said, didn't play it. Watched boss rushes of it.
Super Mario World Hacks have the same feeling as DOOM Mods, they are very important and pleasing to play
Amazing thumbnail!
Banger video, but you forgot the impact it had when Super Mario Maker was released
Great video! Cant wait to watch more. No biggie but at 2:13 you said "Electric gaming monthly" the magazine was "Electronic Gaming Monthly." No biggie, keep making great videos
“Move faster Pokey!”
One like for who knows says that line
100 seconds?!
I came here to say this but knew in my heart it had already been said
People playing Kaizo Mario:(insert DHIMS stress song)
There's also a Bob Ross version,too
SMW Rom Hacks > Mario Maker
I grew up playing these hacks on my jailbroken PSP so I could play them on the go. That shit was wild back then for me. Fun times man.
0:40 no I just laughed at the latter 2 and stared blankly when they laughed.
Now i want to know which is harder to beat:
Mario: The Lost Levels, or Kaizo Mario?
Electric Gaming Monthly, the most esteemed gaming magazine specifically aimed at electricians :P
Kaizo Mario is something that probably would still exist even if you went back in time and stopped its original creator from making it.
I've heard about it, I've seen gameplay of it, but I'll never play it or any levels from Mario Maker based off of it because it takes away the fun you're suppose to have with video games.
I'll never understand why some folks want to torture themselves with level designs that look like the came from a crackhead. I'd like to *keep* my sanity, thank you very much.

They Can Come In Difficulty. Some Are Easi(er) And Some Are Absolutely Impossible.
and a day later plane mario happened
super demo world came out on sep 10 2001
1 day later
911 happend
Nice, great video!
I miss the old days of lets plays and rage games
Yeah, Proton john was also my introduction to kaizo/rom hacks
This does bring up a question in my mind, which is the hardest OFFICIAL Mario game?
i remember playing a game like this (it was basically the same thing except a free browser game a mario game made to be bs as possible) this gave me so much nostalgia.
I think you're speaking about Unfair Mario
Happy New Year Connor the waffle
What's funny is that this romhack is now considered to be one of the easier of the difficult romhacks. there are LOADS of great hacks that are 3 or 4 times harder, with many many players skilled enough to beat them as well.
what Super Mario World remix did you pick from 1:28 to 1:41 ConnerTheWaffle i would like to listen to the full song.
I used to watch Sidbladeko's videos of the Kaizo Mario World playthrough series in the 00's
Besides knowing this it's nice to see you pop-up in my algos again... hurray!!!
When i was a kid I used to have a good time with mario hacks like Demo World, TSRP but then i accidentally played "Luigi's Adventure". It was my biggest piece of suffering ive ever played as a 9 year old and its not kaizo.

17:25 my comment is there lmao
Great video
This is pretty cool of you ☺️☺️ to do this
4:59 nobody isn't gonna say that this was 1 day after the attack
Hey Connor how's was Christmas?
When you make another dk video?
Just remember:
If you used save states, you didnt beat kaizo mario
Yep, but for a newbie that is the best tool to learn to play.
5:03 so close yet so far😢
0:38 ah Super Mario Frustration a classic.
A few things that separates Kaizo Mario from the rest:
- It can be completed by an expert platformer. However it will provide even the best players with a very stiff challenge (about as much challenge as we plebians face with a normal game)

Very few Kaizo hacks score on all 3 fronts
Something like Pit of Despair, Pit of Death, and Item Abuse 1-3 qualifies on the latter 2 fronts but no human can complete them. Not even with slowdowns and savestates
What a good story!
Bro the first ever rom hack was made a day later after 9 11💀
Very well made video. Really enjoyed it.
Oh my god this video just made it dawn on me that "Retsupurae" is just japanese engrish for "Let's Play". I feel enlightened.
Nice Video dude. I realy enjoyned it
Bro went Gaming Historian on us.
Great video!
The Romhacking Community is a perfect example of "If X can't make Y, Then we will make Y"

We did it garage gang hub is featured!
What was that Rom Hack that resembled the first Mario vs. Donkey Kong game?
This is the kind of comment I was missing from you
Young, shaven Barb
great video!
WAFFLE MAN
If you think that this is the hardest one, you haven't searched enough
They also made a kaizo pokemon which is quite good. Still waiting for kaizo kirby so i can watch connor lose his mind XD
The test didn't that hard
The test:
Now mario maker can make kaizo mario levels
I can get lil Wayne's lollipop as a ring tone in 30 seconds!1!!!!1!!1
How the heck Nintendo not know about this it's a miracle they not send a Sece and decist order to this game 🤯
Is kaizo mario as good in NSMBWII
demo world came out a day before 9/11

21:41 that's not really true...
retsupurae 🙏
Their name is kinda like saying "Let's Play"!!
Azureblade was my first love
I'm 38 and still think Mario 3 and Mario 64 is way better than Super Mario World
5:00 oh shi…
No, no no no no don’t you dare accuse all of us of using save states to beat these rum hacks I’ve never once never ever ever once used to save state.

hello conner
Amphibia profile pic, yay!!
Mario 64 sold 12 copies and failed horribly
Every Kirby game is the best video game ever released no Mario
Super Mario world hacks caused 9/11
September 10th 2001? The day before 911 😮
Whoa
Sorry but Mario 3 is just way better.
Snes is awesome yes. Better graphics but Marios toolkit was pretty much reduced to nothing . He got a spin jump and cape but lost 7 other abilities.
And world sized seem reduced.
0:17 fake as hell watch page 💀💀💀💀💀💀
😀
Yub
🐓
Garage gang.
