Finally caught SimpleFlips at GDQ. He spent 3 and a half minutes silent during Cheese05's run and then fell asleep live on the couch. Great entertainer he is!
sometimes I watch these and I cant even understand how people are so good at a game. I know.. practice practice practice.... but still. its incredible.
This game is such a masterpiece. Honestly some of the most flavorful levels that are interesting and balance challenge with reasonable while letting the player have a real shot at figuring it out. So fun and rewarding
Thank you whoever cut the gdqx runs for posting to youtube; previous vods have had up to like 12 minutes of dead time (often silenced due to copyrighted music) before the run actually began, this is waaay better.
You guys should pin these to the top. Just a suggestion. Otherwise great stuff! Thanks for making such great events and introducing me to the world of speedruns!
Speedruns of 3D Mario games are so satisfying to watch. All these insane tricks being pulled off, making anything you did as a kid look stupid just makes you wonder what you were doing all those hours. So much fun to watch.
Last week I started binging this channel.. I said "super mario 64 would be sick to be seen ran.." Here we are, it's my first time seeing this, and what a run! Cheese is a legend!
Easily top 5 speedrun game. Very exciting to watch! Also, the fact there always is a backup strat, and that backup strats are often more awesome than the original route; makes it a very marathon-friendly game!
In the early to mid 90's I got heavily involved in music production and gaming didn't take a back seat so much as it evaporated in my life. Watching these runs is my way of re-living an era in gaming that I ignored.
It’s really really funny to see those big mistakes in the marathon run, because everyone’s treating it lightly and no one’s getting embarrassed or anything.
It’s funny watching this 3 years in the future and just how must the game has changed and how much better Cheese is! Current WR 1.37.50 by Cheese of course!
There was a cannonless strat back in my days when I speedrunned this game(10+ years ago).The difference was that we used to doube long jump, second jump landing on the ship ledge going to a wall jump.I am preeeeeetty sure I can find footage from 15 years ago people doing this, too bad I forgot the dudes name which found it...
the couch is just listing everything that can go wrong with every star... performing this well in the face of that list of potential mistakes is GODLIKE.
4:23 "You used to have to find the exact right pixel in the wall, but then some guy came along and discovered that you can just get it by finding the exact right pixel in the wall."
Can someone please tell me why SM64 speedruns start when the console turns on? For every other game I've seen, the timer starts when the save file is selected.
Super Mario 64 is such a balanced game which allows you to go through it fast, it controls very well and one can masters Mario's moves. It becomes like the sonic of Mario games.
🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯 this game took me and my brother two years to get 128 stars and this guy is doing this like child’s play but he’s on another level great speed run
