Have you ever played a game so often that you feel like you could play it without looking? I decided to put my Super Mario 64 memory to the test.

“It sounds like the balls!” - TheJWittz (2021)
This, exactly this.
"I think you can pull out"-TheJWittz (2021)
Hey, that's me in the video. :)
I've always said: blindfolded gaming is less a challenge of memory, and more a challenge of routing. Can you make a route that consistently gets you to where you need to go? That's what playing a game blindfolded amounts to. Hours of experimenting with setups until you get something that works consistently.
The memory aspect comes into play with being able to remember which backup strats correspond to which scenarios-- which is a skill that speedrunning _in general_ needs!
*Celeste Golden Strawberries intensify*
Actually, he can if he keeps going. We both know that he is definitely capable
This was so great! It's so fun to see people trying out blindfolded Super Mario 64 for the first time, and the excitement of finally getting that star for the first time is so awesome! Katun, Bubzia, and Nobori are all incredible, and they've got amazing content going in-depth on blindfolded gaming/ routing/ strategies/ other interesting stuff! The time they've put into learning, creating, and mastering blindfolded strategies for Super Mario 64 really shows, it's amazing what they can do!
I'm really glad that the blindfolded Mario 64 guide could help you, this was such an entertaining video! :D Congrats on getting the star, it's a huge achievement!
Broke: playing Mario 64 regular
Woke: playing Mario 64 blindfolded

In 144p quality
2x speed on
JustJulyo nah, 720+ so you don't see twice the frames
I feel like someone’s going to get r/wooooshed here...
13:19 "16 hour run" - JWittz in shambles
There's some serious time travel in mario speedrunning when they can do a "16 hour run in half this time"
The word for seeing even without sight. Is experience.
and here i thought it was the eye of thundera.
Moral of the story: Never take anything for granted, not even what you were born with.
Did you just say for granite?
Mad respect to any- and everybody who does the blindfolded runs!
i dont see how it can be done
I *see* what you did there.
@@AkaiAzul No you didn’t
That’s what he meant to say 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
Yes, but I can hear how it can be done.
I don’t see the joke.
I am glad you tried this challenge and enjoyed it! It is always very nice to see others try this out and get a feeling for the runs we do and love :)
@TheJWittz the amazing speedrunner is here
Running and Routing a game that was never blindfolded before is honestly such an underrated experience. I wish that more people would give it a look and i am glad that through GDQ and a lot of media attention that this subgenre of speedrunning gets finally it´s beautiful time to shine.
I always thought it was such a neat idea. I always like challenges in games, self imposed or otherwise, that take away something that's seemingly vital to beating the game, but the idea of taking away the one sense that many people would say is required to play any game at all still blows my mind.
Turns out a guy faking a blindfolded speedrun was the perfect way to drum up interest and explain the impressiveness of a niche category!
Found this man after CallMeKevins video and now I’m obsessed
Someone get this man the Sword of Omens.Grant him sight beyond sight!
*high-fives* i see you too are one of culture.
I am literally wearing the exact same shirt right now!
I just love my chest pocket charmander!
*Jwitz attempts to blindfold this game without practice* Me: This game is going to swallow him whole
"People can do a full 16 hour run in half this time?!" Man, I guess speedrunners have suddenly become gods if they can play 16 hours in only 30 minutes! xD
This may be one of my all time favorite videos of yours. I gotta try this for myself.
The best part of this was absolutely the bits of text that pop up - they all made me laugh a lot =P
Keep up the good work man, you still make some of the best content on the platform
a day the jwittz uploads is a great day
Hey TheJWittz. I wanna say that you were a big part of my childhood and helped shape me into the person i grew up to be. Before I was however old in like elementary school and now i’m a freshman in high school, and my love for pokémon never diminished through that time, and I’d like to credit that to you. I found your videos really entertaining and the top 10s were what really got me talking about pokemon. thank you for that dude.
Anyone else come here to see who Josh is from the new callmekevin video?
The King of the nerd
yeepp
The is wholesome.
Been watching this channel for years-thanks for revisiting some of our most nostalgic memories with us, together
CallMeKevin says hello Josh
You do a great job of editing both to keep the time snappy and to keep it fun to look at when you linger in one spot.
Jwitzz talkin about a blindolfded 16 star run while Nabori did 70 stars sub 1:27
Officially a letsplay channel.
This was so entertaining to watch! Great content as always!
No matter how well you know this game being blindfolded will always make it really hard
This was wild but I knew you’d get it! Nicely done dude
Shoutout to RockLeeSmile and his super meat boy speedrun where he used his feet to play. not blind but still super weird.
Good sound design can do that.
This really made me very happy! Congrats!
It’s because of videos like this that I wish UA-cam gave me favorites option for my very favorite liked videos. Excellent work as always Mr. JWittz
Nice signed copy! I got my Mario 64 cartridge signed by Mr. Martinet.
Anyone else here because of CallmeKevin
Doing the first level of Mario blindfold is kinda like doing one of the harder cod zombies Easter eggs, memorizing a ton of random buttons or steps, restarting a lot, something that average players can’t figure out without a yt video
best jwittz video in years
Thanks for another great video!
i watched Call me kevins video nerdoff and i was like josh looks and sounds familiar, AND IT WAS YOU I WAS LIKE WOW
I'm glad you put the text with what we are all thinking
I came from the nerds show thing,do u still know how to beatboxxx??!!!
Great video I would love to see more this is basically just Nintendo fact of the day
I feel like another huge disadvantage you might have had in this run was the lack of notches on the switch controller's joystick. Getting consistent angles is reliant on those notches. It's especially noticeable when you were trying to get the chomp star after pounding the pole - you were almost never able to go straight left which is probably the only reason you didn't get the star immediately despite doing the setup correctly
First off I want to say, congrats on actually getting the star, I can always appreciate speedruns and blindfolded runs are even better. I will say, you made this challenge a lot harder by using the switch version. Not only is the camera controls harder, but the control stick is also un-optimal due to not having notches so the setups are a lot harder to get precise.
ZXMany is showing up in so many places these days. I did not expect to find him here, though!
Loved this. Please also do some SWSH battles blindfolded!
RIP in peace Mario Gastonichi 31/03/2021
It's Mario Mario
This is amazing and ridiculous. People figure out the craziest things
And now Bubzia's done a 70-star blindfolded run at this SGDQ
This is absolutely insane
What blows me away is that he wore a blindfold... rather than just turn the screen away.
Would have made a less funny video and harder to prove he couldn't see
AKA Man struggles to beat Bob-Omb Battlefield for 25 minutes.
This is very interesting to me! I watched my brother play this game back in the 1990s on the N64 and now that I am adult who still loves to play video games even though I am legally blind. I am considered low vision and not totally blind because I still have remaining vision. The game I play most of the time now is called Spelunky. It is a roguelike platformer.
How do you do with spelunky? And what is the easiest and hardest game for you to play?
MAN blindfolded speed running looks so cool
Why was he putting his glasses on in the intro if he’s going to use a blindfold? Lol.
Thank you ZXmany!
this was more hectic to watch than the twitch plays pokemon playthrough. lol
Dude you have my dream in the beginning of the video. I've always wanted my copy of Super Mario 64 signed by Shigeru Myiamoto
Would've been the best prank ever to have the celebration screen say "Mario Wings to The Sky" for Josh to see after he takes off the blindfold. Just for the split second where he thinks he somehow completed that star
This game needs a remaster desperately
It got one on the DS
@@aaronr.265 that wasn't really a remaster
jbfarley it was kind of what people want out of a remaster, enhanced visuals, more levels, new experiences.
@@jbfarley I mean, it was.
By definition, it was a remaster/remake.
NEW JWITTZ HOURS
There is new meaning to the animated intro where he puts on glasses, or for them to turn all black
“I’ve never been happier to die” bruh
Should try this with Renee guiding you.
This was so frustrating to watch lol
Haha cheese thumbnail is hilarious 🤣
I mean, I’d happily try Punch-Out on NES blindfolded, but Super Mario 64? A game in 3D space? You couldn’t *pay* me.
This is why rumble is a great feature for games
Me watching this video with my 2 eyes: Come on how could you miss it it's right there
OMG THE RETURN OF J WITTZ
I sure didn't see it coming!
verry-verry good
Thanks🙏🙏🙏 for another vidio great👍👍👍
sm64 is difficult for me already with my sight, mad respect to anyone who tries this blindly. Great content as always jwittz!
Half the challenge is the camera, blindfolded runs removes that
IM CALLING IT NOW Any retro pokemon game blindfolded!!!!
Now I'm curious how far I could get into my favorite game, Legend of Mana, if I tried to play it blinded. I could MAYBE get into the first town, but I wouldn't have a lot of sound effects to work with.
This is breaking my brain... Holy $h!T
This is so confusing to watch as someone who’s never seen or played this game. But the music is so good.
I would watch a 120 star playthrough of this
This makes me want to see a channel where toph does blind playthroughs of games
@Conner Wine yeah it would be hard to do right. What I was saying. And it's silly and mostly a joke, is thinking about what it would actually be like.
I just know that in the future we'll see a Mario 64 speedrun blindfolded, game muted and with one hand
You go j wittz
I love Super Mario 64 so much
I just want to know the song name in your intro I love it
Another *huge* handicap of the Switch version is using a controller without notches. In 3D games, it's imperative that for any setup where you need to hold forward, back, up-right, etc. that you get the exact same angle on the joystick everytime, and that's just unfeasible without notches like on the original N64 controller or GC controller on Virtual Console.
if you want to see more blindfolded sm64 check out Nobori. he is another record holder in blindfolded and he has some unique strats
Who is here after Kevins last video? :D
King of the nerds loool
how painful was it to watch your self play the game blind folded during editing
The jump away from the chain chomp was agonizing 😂
ProZD would crush this if he memorized all the level layouts, considering he just knows the Peter Pan script by heart. Also waiting for inevitable Dark Souls Trilogy No Hit Dancepad Blindfolded.
Ok now try to get one blindfolded star in Mario 64 Chaos Edition
Imagine if after hearing the victory jingle and getting the blindfold off he read a completely different star name
As someone who's been playing the game since launch, I could *maybe* also do blindfolded. I've been wanting to test that, so maybe I will one day. It just won't have any glitch exploits because I'm not experienced with those very well aside from BLJ :P
Reminds me of small ant and his blindfolded run of mario odyssey
Imagine achieving this in ninja gaiden, any ninja gaiden
Is this ultra instinct?
