For someone who played this game during the 1980s, the most magical thing to me is that wall jumps are real. I followed the WR story for years, I know it's all much more impressive than a wall jump, but still the wall jumps are magical - an emergent property of the way the game was coded. It's like a fantasy we would have had back then, but it was secretly real the whole time. I would love for Kosmic or someone to do a video on the history of SMB wall jumps - what is earliest point in time when they were discovered and confirmed?

Was the first time I ever pulled one off and it was by complete accident. Missed the Warp Zone but was still alive!

I can't imagine my heart rate being 180bpm and trying to hit ANYTHING frame perfect. I used to use a heart rate monitor playing PUBG on stream, and when it'd get to 165+ in the final circle, it was noticeably more difficult to aim well. Managing stress in a speedrun like this is an entire extra skill.

@Ray25689 6 месяцев назад

When I'm coming back from a run, I walk for a few seconds and then try to run the last bit as fast as possible. Then I go up the stairs, in my room and immediately measure my heartrate, and it's never above 108. Maybe it's inaccurate, but I cannot imagine how insane a 165 heart rate has to feel, let alone 180.

@cordomum 6 месяцев назад

i haven't delved into SMB speedruns for a long time, but essentially, any level in super mario is set to end on specific frames, which are multiples of some number. Say the framerule was 10-this means the level can end on frame 10, 20, 30, 40, etc. If you were to beat the level on frame 18, and TAS can beat the level on frame 12, you both still finish on frame 20 (since that is the next multiple of 10).@@rolandverde8771

Could you do a video on how speed runners pull this off, and how they become somewhat consistent at it? What are the chances of getting a frame perfect input? Mind boggled.

@cynicanal111 6 месяцев назад

16 miliseconds is a lot more than you think. To put it into perspective, a guitarist, drummer, or pianist playing a fast piece is hitting windows about that tight on every single note they play. It's harder in a videogame context because you're not going at a steady pulse, but the raw precision is easily within human capability.

@JohnnyLeven 6 месяцев назад

Stepmania has a timing window of 22.5ms for marvelous judgement. The best players can get all marvelous timing on songs with 1000+ notes. But 16ms is still much harder than 22.5ms and each one is different and requires unique cues unlike rhythm games.

@Lightningflamingice 6 месяцев назад

@@JohnnyLeven There's also the added difficulty of not having a musical cue like in rhythm games in SMB. Your brain can anticipate when to press future notes due to their predictability and your ability to recall how the song goes, which saves you a lot more time then having to react to a purely visual cue (and a very minor one at that, there is no major difference in how the game looks before and after a frame-perfect input).

One of the things I've never really asked about mario bros frame rules is how close to tas you actually have to be to make the perfect frame rule. I know it's 21 frames, but if tas makes the next fastest framerule by 2 frames, you can only be one frame slower and still hit the frame rule. Essentially I'm just curious how many frames of leeway does each frame rule level actually have to make the perfect frame rule.

@a_little_flame589 6 месяцев назад

it depends on the level i know 1-1 has 15 frames of lee way i imagine like 4-2 though has like 5

@EebstertheGreat 6 месяцев назад

Some levels are very tight. In 8-1 and 8-2, you can't lose a single frame with current strategies. (It's possible to play them a tiny bit faster, but that's harder, so runners don't.) In 1-1 you have 3 frames to spare with normal strats (and with a backup out of the pipe, you can lose another frame or two). I'm not sure about 4-1 or 8-3, but runners rarely lose time in those levels anyway except for missing the fpg, which ends the attempt. 1-2 and 4-2 technically have a little more wiggle room if done perfectly, but they are extremely hard to do perfectly, so in practice they are also very tight. In 4-2 in particular it's technically possible to save a pretty large handful of frames, like 16 or 17 or something, but only by switching to a much more difficult bump strategy and adding fast accels and a perfect turnaround (each of which is multiple tricky frame-perfect inputs). With normal strats, I think the best time you can get is something like 2 frames before the next frame rule. Those numbers for 4-2 are probably not exactly right, but that's the gist.

I still wish he would have the world record using a real NES controller and on an NES. It just feels wrong to see a keyboard and SMB.

Great video man! Thanks for demystifying the "frame perfect" trope and presenting the info in an organized and intelligent way. Five stars 👍

That Home Alone speedrun had me cracking up as the runner is just dicking around and discovering things in the world record lol

I genuinely believe that one day we will see the perfect SMB1 speed run, and knowing speedrunners chances are that it will be sooner than we expect

I'm already seeing it a ton in the comments, but I musts concur, this was an amazing video. Your Niftski video was also really good. It's great to have someone so knowledgeable about the game show us how truly amazing these runs, and the people that perform them, are.

Wow. Too bad Billy Mitchel just showed me an old VHS tape he had saved incase anyone set a new record. He beat it 10 seconds faster.

@AruthaSilverthorn 4 месяца назад

Very happy to come back to these any time the record does step forward. Can I ask for a video about proving more frame rules are impossible? Last I watched was mostly talking about how many frames would be needed, and we’ve since moved beyond that

Great video as always! There's something poetic about the final boss of SMB1 speedrunning finally being the final boss (stage) of the game.

God thank you so much not just for this video, but for using Prime's Chozo Ruins theme. Absolutely some of the best background music ever composed and it's such a vibe.

This is so hype. It’s amazing how much grind has gone into this game, how close we’ve gotten, and how far the goal still is. I fully believe niftski or someone else in the community will get the perfect run someday
