Hardest star for me was easily getting the 100 coins in tick tock clock. So many deaths, so much rage, never again...
Hey Virtual Food im about to finish Sm64 and about to make a vid about top 15 hardest stars
Same here. I don’t know why, but I find the Rainbow Ride one much easier than the one in Tick Tock Clock.
Did anybody else drop that Damn baby penguin off the snow map?
Victor Von Deathstroke my sister would get so upset when I did that lol
The original comment was only from 7 months ago, what are you talking about?
I thought you said you weren't going to count red coin stars.
I believe he meant the Cap red coins ans the bowser red coins when he said that.
+ClassyCraft57 or the courses, pole-jumping for red coins should have cracked in here someplace if he did
It's not too bad, i just hate how long it takes if you mess up a jump, in all honesty the star I hate the most is 100 coins in tick-tock clock
To be fair, you made Cruiser Cross the Rainbow way more difficult for yourself than it needed to be
This video was really entertaining and well made , beside some little things, great editing, interesting personality and enjoyable voice. Overall great video. Keep on doing them , your effort pays off. Please keep on doing your work.
Regardless of the fact that I've played through this game so many times that every star is a piece of cake, I clicked on it anyway bc I just love this game so much. You're list is accurate for people who haven't played though the game 250+ times, good job.
Metal Head Mario Can Move! made the top 10? All 5 on your honorable mentions list are worlds harder than that star.. It's completely doable without jumping down the hill. Just run the path, you'll have plenty of time. Also, the penguin race is harder than the Tall Tall Mountain slide if you ask me. The slide itself isn't bad, but that penguin is real friendly with the devil himself.
ticktock clock 100 coin is a pain in the ass
+Spritzer Hayden I did it, but it took a lot of tries. I had ALL possible coins, that were a total of 98 (including all 8 red coins again), right before the very last floor. You needed to make it to the last floor and you couldn't afford falling from the two rotating platforms, which needed some tight low-jumps without building much momentum. Still can't believe the game had you missing only 2 coins up to that point.
1. Agreed- Elevator Tour in the Volcano
and
2. Wall Kicks Will Work
You did an Excellent job with your count down!!! You can tell this took a long time to put together and it was very well made!!! And I also agree with your choices of the hardest levels. Unfortunately for me..ALL the levels in SM64 were hard😂😂 but great Job!!!!👍👍 I will check out your let's play
The most difficult star to get for me is trying to get 100 coins for the clock course.
I would say the same thing. It is the most difficult star. The 100 coin in the tiny big island is also difficult.
Wargun785 really? That was my last star too. That and 100 coins in tiny huge island
@OctagonalSM64 because it’s easy to die, and I was like 10 years old at the time.
The peach slide secret star where you have to finish in under 21 seconds is one of the hardest.
I used to think the same, but one day I was messing around and did a running belly slide and you can finish the slide super quickly. Actually got the 21 second star before the regular on e
That one was actually quite easy for me as I did a belly jump and I got a score of 20:2
I just came across your channel and I think your videos are awesome !
This was very thorough! I enjoyed it and agreed with pretty much all of your points.
Why does it take 4 minutes just to get the list? Nice list but don't have such a long intro
Since you did a coin star as number 1 THE hardest star without a doubt is the 100 coin star on Rainbow Ride if you screw up the blue coin switch you're SOL
Dude i freakin love this! Subbed ✌
Awesome video! Thank you!
10. Snowman's Big Head (Snowman's Land)
9. 20 Seconds or Less (Castle Secret Slide)
8. 100 Coins (Rainbow Ride)
7. Big Boo's Balcony (Big Boo's Haunt)
6. ELevator Tour in the Volcano (Lethal Lava Land)
5. Stomp the Thwomp (Tick Tock Clock)
4. Blast Away to the Lonely Mushroom (Tall, Tall Mountain)
3. Wing Mario Over the Rainbow
2. Vanish Cap Under the Moat
1. Big Pengiun Race (Cool, Cool Mountain)
I think blasting to the mushroom in tall tall mountain was a bit more threatening personally
Tommy Ettinger Yeah, my list is different now, so I edited it. I still think that Breathtaking View from Bridge is hard if you don't know what you're doing, though.
The penguin is so fat it keeps on pushing me off the track ;(
+Mike Hillman. You guys actually having trouble with penguin race...? Interesting.
***** First off, Hoot the Owl is only in Tall, Tall Mountain in the DS version. Not to mention that that shortcut wasn't intentional. Oh, and you have to grab the monkey on top of the mountain and select "Let Him Go".
with the metal head Mario, I just got near the switch and pounded it from above the water
I enjoyed this. Thank you!
I really like your narration, explanations and editing.. SUBSCRIBED!
You just contradicted the fact that you said no coin-based stars....rank 1..
thetealeo I believe he meant red coin stars within the main levels, but Number 1 is a castle star. And besides, that level deserves to be on any list for the hardest levels, because it is indeed very challenging.
EpicJackman no it's not. collecting the 8 red coins from unlocking the wing cap was a lot more difficult
MUNDOM316 I think both are challenging in their own right. That one is really hard for me, because I suck at the Wing Cap controls, but most people seem to have an easier time than us.
MUNDOM316 I've done an actual 120 star run. *not recorded* I found the 8 red coins in the sky harder.
***** Because it's not just a matter of steering it left and right, and the occasional up or down. You need to control it carefully, and allow it to fly.
my only issue with this list is in the next 5, shoot into the wild blue is maybe the easiest star in the whole game (besides toads) with a side flip wall jump
Just found your channel and sub keep up the great work and keep those videos rolling
Just subbed keep up the amazing work
My right ear enjoyed that.
Theres this thing, its called "Honorable Mentions"
You're doing great with your vids man :) keep it up, seeing you subscribers building up nearly over 1,500 is great! (Better than me anyway XD) Super Mario 64 was the first game I ever played, and it gives me good nostalgia laying it on my Wii U, though one of the hardest stars for me was "Wall Kicks Will Work" I finished that level when I was 7 and I couldn't complete it for the life of me XD I just sucked with Wall Kicks. Anyway, keep up the vids
your videos are really good. keep up the good work.
The hardest world imo was tall tall mountain next would be little/big world(forgot the name) and third would be tick tock clock. Some of the stars for these were just unmerciful
Also on "Shoot to the Wild Blue" you can wall jump off the wall.
Not gonna deny that you are one hell of a UA-camr :D Good pace, great voice, no extra clusterf**k in the videos... cudos to you my good sir (tips my hat at you) !!!
The only nitpicky thing I personally felt - and keep in mind, this might just be me, and for the record, it's not a huge thing - but it's great that you wanna point out that you have a let's play of the game so that people know that this isn't just something someone put out there after watching someone else's let's play... but imho I think that you might have pointed it out a little too often... just saying...
But hey, as I said, it's nitpicky, just trying to give constructive feedback :)
Hi, loved your difficulty roundup even though you recorded it quite awhile ago; it's new for me! :)
Like you, this was the first video game I ever played and I was completely enthralled!!
My list pretty much matches yours, just in a different order.
My most difficult star was "Stomp the Thwomp" for some reason. (Runner up was the one hundred coins star in Tic Tock Clock but I know you weren't counting those.)
~ Anyway, thanks for bringing back some fun memories for me of this great game!
Plunder in the sunken ship: there's a small air pocket at the top corner you can go get air from while trying to open the chests
I feel accomplished that 4 through 10 and the next 5 I completed in my initial 70 stars to beat the final bowser. I think one of the hardest for me was Eye to Eye in the Secret Room because of the damned wall jump that has to be pretty much done on the first try because of the damned invisi cap timer. It just got super frustrating despite not dying
i like your top 10, nice vid!
Hey man, like you I'm also an aspiring UA-camr. Just wanted to say that you made a pretty good video here! Hope you manage to find more subscribers and keep up the good work!
I'd replace a few of these with "Tricky Triangles, Blast to the Lonely Mushroom, and Big Penguin Race". Otherwise good picks.
What about Rematch against Koopa the Quick? That's always a hard one - gave me a lot of trouble as a child.
Nice video ! I hope you get more subscribers !
“No Red Coin Stars” puts that cloud stage at #1
For shoot into the wild blue just triple jump and then wall kick, no cannon required, makes your like *a lot* easier. But with the cannon ye it's actually pretty hard unless you retry the star a lot after you collected it to get better at the positioning.
dont even need to triple jump sideflip can work or if you're really good a single jump can work as well
video starts at 3:22 . That's sad. I didn't come here for a 3 minute introductory about your channel, and what your about to explain. Don't explain that its a top 10 hardest stars, we can see that in the title. just jump right in. please consider these things, if you want more subs. good list though.
+Vincent Walker Who'd you ask for help kid? You thought the random guy who said "Thank you!" Was the creator of the video. Don't call someone else retarded if you are yourself.
Neon Blue kid? look who's talking blue. only kids use colors as usernames and I replied earlier saying that it was mistake, I already acknowledged that it was someone else
Awesome video!!! So nostalgic for me. I kept yelling...."Oh my gods I hated that star!" Now I want to play the game.
wow.. this is so well done.
Super Mario 64 was legit one my favorite video games as a kid, and this video brings back so much nostalgia. Good job on the making of this, I can tell lots of work went into it. :)
I'm surprised that the 4 star from Tinny Huge Island 5 secrets is not on the the list.
I got 103 stars when I was about 8-9 years old and I found it once again and now I must get all stars....
EmmettRocks In my opinion the ds version sucks because the d pad made it kinda hard to control and it got
Tiring especially the bowser levels
Well, i love this game and actually i love trying and trying. Also thank for taking this amount of time. Also i'm according to your top.
Lol watching and I’m currently on Elevator Tour In The Volcano. That last jump is a little tricky! I’ll get it tomorrow hahah.
SM64 is the first game you ever played? How old are you? Also, how did that wall jump in Big Boo's Haunt not make the list? That was *by far* the hardest thing to pull off in the game.
#10 - you don't need metal Mario to get the star. Long jump. Ground Pound.
Jump high and fall in the switch without the metal cap is possible
This is an excellent video.
Wing Mario Over the Rainbow was the last star I had to complete as a kid too. Took me weeks and a few rage quits. Glad to see it #1 on your list!
And the boo one you are supposed to crawl up the roof. That's the only use for the crawl ability.
man... one of the hardest stars is eye to eye on the secret room... i think
but, the secret slide? man that was izy and the penguin slide is hard.. i guess
amazing. I totally agree with the #1 pick. I always found it the hardest as well
Nice list! I'm thinking of making something like this.
Dude, literally one of my first memories as a human is doing plunder the sunken ship, that is not hard
10. Oh gosh yeah that part is soooo frustrating!!!!
9. I use to have the chests memorized but recently when I played it again, I almost did die and it was hard to remember which order you open the chests.
8. Give me this one over the stupid Pinguin slide anyday. Yeah this one is hard, but at least it's fun and it's not a bloody race!
7. I actually found this one to easier because of the extra coins and I am very good at controlling Mario so that whirlpool didn't bother me that much.
6. I can see why this would hard for you, but for me it's a piece of cake because I am very patient and have great timing skills.
5. Definitely hard, but it's still alot of fun, but yes patience is key.
4. Oh gosh yes, this one is a NAIL BITER! One of the reasons why this level in general is a pain in the neck!
3. Seeing how this is the last level, I expected a challenge, well, needless to say I've yet to get these stars. So yeah, HARD!!!
2. I haven't even attempted this sucker, yeah that throw guy would send chills!
1. I have the players guide, and it even said this was the hardest star to get. Yeah I was too scarred to try it myself lol.
Great video one of my favorite video games for sure. Lol now do James bond Golden eye. You know you want too lol
subbed because of this. thanks
God ur intros are long...
You deserve more subscribers.
Thank you so much for the kind words! They will come if I just continue down the path
TheUofCWildcat This video gave me an erection, you have earned a subscriber
Thanks for the trip down memory lane. I gotta go find a N64 now.
Hey what's up man! Subbed!
um, at the beginning of the video, you said no red coin based levels, and yet, number 1 is a red coin level.
nice video !
Definitely agree with your #1 spot. I was raging so hard lol.
One in my top 10 not listed here is Bully The Bullies where its easy to get to the very last ones and then have them push you into the lava
Geforce2187 Super unnecessarily difficult, but for me Hot Foot it in the Volcano just beats it out.
I can honestly say I have Mario 64 Mastered.
If you guys want I can record myself doing all the stars mentioned in this video - I promise you won't be disappointed in my ability to get them!
Awesome!
*I think "tricky triangles" is worst in the rainbow world*
omg yes that star is so annoying.
in the ds you can cheese it with luigis back flip though
Uhhh, as a speedrunner, I highly disagree, because you have plenty of time, even if you don't do optimal movement.
8 red coins in the dessert? Anyone?
LostLameLooP 15 years and I still haven't been able to get the 8 red coins in shifting sand land . I would literally pay someone to get that bad boy for me
That one is the literal worst!!! I've tried I don't know how many times 😥
not too bad if you use the green shell on top of the stone gazebo thing
When you get to the ship in the Jolly Rogers level, there's an air pocket if you swim to the top of the ship near where the star is, so if your health gets low you can replenish by swimming up there.
With number 2 and 3, you're making it harder than it actually is. When you go to the cruiser, you don't have to run over the platform. You can simply just jump over the expansions. Also when getting to the big house, you don't have to jump on the falling platforms. If you time it right, you can use a backjump to get on the glassblock.
#2 is easy. It might just be because i'm good at the game, but you literally just have to aim in the middle of the rainbow.
I started playing a few days ago and now have 110 stars. I haven't done anything for Rainbow Ride yet, but I've done everything else up to that point, and personally, I agree with most of these, especially Stomp on the Whomp, but I think that you should have included something from Wet-Dry World, as there were a few hard ones there. Also, how do you do some of these without even dying once? I find that most of these stars I ended up dying multiple times on!
Weston Murdock because gamers always lie about how many times they die on the internet.
Dude you deserve more subs.
This brought memories!!!
Most of these stars are easy.
just saying, I do not thing mysterious mountain slide should be in the list..... Nintendo didn't intend this, but you can break the game and get the star without even going in the slide, just go to behind you from start, take the wind up, face towards the edge, you can see the star, jump down and kick, and bam star
Well, this video is for honest, hard working people who wouldn't dare break the game.
@Simon Kawasaki Are speedrunners not hard working? Watch cheese05's 1:39:28 and tell me that he didn't work hard for it
When I played it i doesn't know that there was a secret slide, so I saw that star and made it that way 😕😕
Iskipped through the first 3-4 minutes. Overall, great video though. I love how you put X/10 ratings for level difficulty etc.. PS were you at UofC in Calgary? Anyways.. GREAT LIST!
On the rainbow carpet ride, the first flamethrower is high enough that you can crouch under it to keep from getting burned.
That was funny, thanks.
im sorry, but half of the stars on this list aren't hard. you must suck at Mario 64.
Super Mario 64 is a relatively easy game to begin with. In the retrospect of the game, these are (again in my opinion) the hardest stars. If you think they're easy, then the rest of the game is probably also easy. But again, if you got different opinions id love to hear em. Make a video or post em here
TheUofCWildcat I don't feel jolly roger bay has any hard stars, and there are certainly worse stars in tick tock clock. and metal head Mario can move is easy as crap. while I do agree that the rainbow ride stars are hard, and that the wing cap red coins are stupid, the beginning of the list was really underwhelming. im surprised nothing from tiny huge island made it on this list.
Who else has grabbed every single coin in this game?
there are 2 impossible coins in thi, one literally spawns on the death barrier for one frame and deactivates. from that stage alone you havent got all coins
my right ear really enjoyed it
Oh the wing cap star... I never go that one. The rain bow in the sky stars were hard too but at a certain point it became so easy I would just play it over and over.
I thought you said no red coin missions
That is true but that I considered more of a secret star than a level red coin star. Haha.
***** this was over 2 years ago. Why do you bother to comment now?
Jolly Roger Bay Level: there is a star where you MUST cannon blast yourself onto the smallest platform. Took me literally 100+ tries. It better be #1. You know the star I'm talking about!
that star is easy. you know that you can grab onto the spikes as well.
I love this game so much!
Well done man. Nice #1, I agree but I believe cuz it's just the "red coins" star itself should be simple enough lol. Two n three are real killers
The hardest stars in Super Mario 64:
Every god damn star in Tick Tock Clock and Rainbow Ride.
