@@SillierPuttyYeah I agree it becomes easier when you use mid air stalling mechanic it even shows you where you are during the animation plus you need have an imagination to know where you are
Luckily for me, me and my 3 friends did it so I had to only beat it twice but trying that with 4 people is WILD I used that 1up trick in that level to give us maxed lives and let me tell you....we needed it.
Whoever played the badge marathon in this video is an absolute GOD, I started with max lives and had TWO left when I finished, this prodigy beat it in five minutes without even taking damage AND got the three 10 purples! Props dude 🎉
The pachinko level isn't really that bad if you take your time with it. The poison lake and chuckster shines are much worse. The poison lake one especially is borderline impossible if you don't know about the exploit related to it. Meanwhile "I'm a chuckster" is just burnt into my memory, literally nothing to help you in that level
@@amethyphoenix Yeah, but they didn't lie. It does seem unbeatable, but imagine if these hardest levels were made back in the old NES days, as Nintendo had their games with no mercy...
You can actually skip a big chunk of the Darker Side dungeon. If you shake the controller a lot during the Glydon part, you can fly straight to the Bowser painting
Champions road is a nightmare. After completing it 5 times on the Wii U, I began to dread the fact that I would have to complete it 5 times again, which is 10 TIMES, on the Switch. It’s a good thing the infinite lives glitch exists …~
have you not use power ups? Save up power ups from previous levels and take on Champions road, you mostly just need nothing more than one or two tanooki suits
As someone who did it ALL for the Galaxy games, the Perfect run was an insane challenge to do. Truly the best way to end the Wii era of Mario (not Wii U)
No fr. I had to beat perfect run with Mario, because even though I love Luigi so much more, Luigi kept slipping off the platforms when I was jumping around, and not only that but he jumps higher so the laser section was something else.... so I unfortunately beat it with Mario, who was slightly less hard at best
I'd include that Lily Pad level in Sunshine as well, since: - You need Yoshi to get rid of the Juice Generator that's on the pipe, but it's on an island that Yoshi can't reach by jumping or swimming to (since he "dissolves" in water) - You have to ride a series of boats to get over there and make sure that Yoshi doesn't go hungry on the way there. - The level itself requires Mario to collect 8 red coins, while controlling a lily pad that is floating on toxic water. Mario will instantly be killed by touching the water. - The lily pad will dissolve if you're not fast enough, so you're on a bit of a time limit - The pipe at the end of the level will take you back out to Isle Delfino, where you have to do the whole thing with Yoshi. THE WHOLE THING about bringing him back to the island and destroying the Generator with his juice. - If you miss JUST ONE COIN, it's faster to just lose a life and respawn. You can't afford to miss any coins, because of how long the lily pad lasts for. Not only that, but FLUDD might run out of water, since you use it to control the lily pad, and it's kind of janky. It's not as bad as the boat in Corona Mountain, but It's VERY close in quality. Everyone and their uncle talks about the Pachinko level, but I've personally never had much issues with this level. Maybe I've been lucky with not dealing with the glitches that this level has, since I have seen how glitchy this level can get. Plus, it's FAR easier to get to, since you just have to ride one of the boats under an archway, and have Mario jump up into the secret level.
Here's a tip for the lily pad level, if you miss some red coins get on the edge of the level and walk slowly back to the start with the hover nozol on in case you slip. I did this as a kid.
It's actually quite refreshing to see nintendo do difficult levels (the fair kind lol) in these mario games, the level of polish they show & expertise of level design shows that they *could* make some truly vile levels, but they want mario to have very accessible level design for both casual play & speedrunning, which leads to a lot of player expression & varying skill ceilings. NOTE: Shoutouts to Poochy Ain't Stupid, Kamek's Revenge, Endless World Of Yoshis, & SMB3's world 7 first airship level.
Oh gosh, Poochy Ain't Stupid and Kamek's revenge... there's hard, there's Nintendo hard, and then there's those two levels... forget 100%ing them, just beating them is a task. 100%...best of luck. Gosh I miss those days. 😭
I love how in the New Super Mario Bros U "Don't. Touch. Anything." challenge, whenever you stop, Mario looks directly at the screen, as if he's asking "You seeing this sh*t???"
Also note for C3 that you have to beat the whole game 8 times to unlock it. Unless ur playing the SMAS SNES port like shown in the video, in which case you only need to reach world 9
Not a single level of Super Mario Wonder can even compare to the Champion Road, that level is insane and amazing, I am proud to have completed that level 5 times AND completed that game at 100%.
I think there's a valid, agreeable reason the video maker didn't bother with the NES version... though I did beat it in Super Mario Bros Deluxe, which has the whole game but you're forced to play as Luigi (and screen crunch). Not sure how I did it in retrospect....
The Lily Pad Ride stands at the summit, not just for its difficulty (having to collect 8 red coins over toxic water), but also for how difficult it is to reach.
Realistically, I'd say the "hardest" mission that actually involves skill and not fighting the horrible physics or patience of a saint is probably one of the Secret stages. And Scrubbing Serena Beach can catch you.
Why do people find the Pachinko the hardest level in SMS? Yeah it's incredibly janky but it's very short and really simple to beat. Some of the FLUDD-less levels are way tougher in my opinion. The same goes for World 9-7 in NSMBW, I beat it on my first try on my first playthrough while getting every Star Coin while starting as small Mario, there was only a single hard jump I had to do. Don't Touch Anything from NSMBU is definitely extremely hard, but Cashless Castle Crawl is way harder, it has the same gimmick with more precise platforming AND no running.
Yeah it's not "hard" as much as severely annoying. I think it's more a matter of showing zero respect to this level cause the level clearly doesn't show us players any respect. If it didn't have that fake gravity pushing us around then it'd have been a fine level.
Might as well count the entirety of The Lost Levels since not only do you have to complete the main game (which is already a kaizo game on its own) without using warps to unlock World 9, AND beat it again with the same criteria 8 DIFFERENT TIMES to unlock worlds A - D (each with their own difficult levels), just to get the “true” ending.
Dude my college room mate and I used to play these levels all the time. We played Mario All-Stars and constantly tried to speed-run these levels while stoned. It was so much fun. The difficulty of the 'lost levels' didn't even phase as we would just hand the controller to the next person and keep trying our best to progress. Great video!
Everytime whenever I play those levels, I try to quote Arins’s improv stories from the game grumps battle kid episode. Sometimes it helps, other times it doesn’t.
Darker Side is only difficult if you play it like an old Mario game, where you rush the ending. If you play it like Odyssey, by checking every nook and cranny, experimenting, the works, you have a better time. The corners are always full of coins to top you up to max, and the Sphinx even gives you a full restore halfway. Your mind is your opponent on the Darker Side.
@@waxy1885 but 9-7 isn’t a hard level if you just run to the flag pole, it’s only “hard” if you try to get all 3 star coins in the first round, which you know…you could just replay the level (and even then the first 2 Star coins are easy to grab)
I would say the sunshine one is top 3 hardest, being Noki bay 6 number 2 and the one you go through a lava-covered pipe and get 8 coins in a river would be number one. The one in this video I would say is more tedious than hard
24:35 on Darker Side? Personally (and this is only me) I thought that one is pretty easy? I mean sure the lava bubble and the flying part to get to those twister things on 28:56 is annoying af but overall, the level isn't so bad. My only Beef is one of the Moon Levels, where you can't use cappy and Mario has to get both moons, the one with a key and the bottom where a bonzai bill is after you while you try to get the bottom moon that his hidden with those blocks. That one. I find incredibly frustrating.😤😤😤😤😤
The Super Mario Odyssey level is the longest but I would also say that it is absolutely the hardest level of all Marios put together, boy, there are 14 individual hardcore levels, how are you supposed to do that?
I will admit, their are so many hardest level in Mario games that I had to complete, but oh man, I really don’t know what the say about the badge marathon in super Mario wonder, and I’m surprised that you featured that level In this video, because oh man, I cannot tell you on how hard that level is comparing to the other hardest Mario levels from other Mario games that I played, like, it’s hard because I fail many times in this, but hey, I’m glad that I finally complete that level as well as the game, so yep, but regardless, that level is so hard, and I’m not sure if this level from Mario wonder beats the other Mario games levels that I played or is this the hardest Mario level ever, however i will say that it would probably be somewhere their, but nevertheless, yeah that all I want to say.
How to beat Champions Road in SM3DW Step 1: Grab two Power-Ups: (Cat Bell and Tanooki Leaf) [Cat Bell in W1-1 and Tanooki Leaf in W3-1] Step 2: Enter Champions Road with the Tanooki Leaf equipped and the Cat Bell in the inventory and go through the level like normal Step 3: Use the Tanooki Leaf up until Green Star 2, then swap out the Tanooki Leaf with the Cat Bell and climb up the tall walls (Use the bounce pad to launch you to a higher point on the wall) Step 4: before the boost pad section, swap out the Cat Bell with the Tanooki Suit, this will be much easier then just using the cat suit at the boost pad section Step 5: Swap out the Tanooki Leaf with the Cat Bell after the Boost Pad section to grab the flag pole and climb your way to the top! Final Step: Repeat this 4 more times Did i mention that you can't get hit once? That is how you beat Champions Road
(beats the secret level of Mario wonders) Me:huh well that was challenging but I thought it be a Game: YOU FOOL THIS ISN'T EVEN MY FINAL LEVEL!!!!! (begins charging up)
The wii U challenge is the only one I have not played outside of wonder as I just do not seem interested in wonder and I am a jump man fan. The new super mario brothers two challenge is second weakness on this level above the 3D Land challenge. Me personally I would say the level C-3 in lost levels is the worst then the perfect run.
I gave up on the badge marathon because of the invisible badge, i would have rather to do all the badges without the invisible badge and without checkpoints (that it's pretty easy to do to be honest) than to do that cancerous last part.
Always thought it was pretty cool in Odyssey that the first thing you take over with Cappy, the frog, is the last thing you use Cappy on in Darker Side. Love that game.
love the content but its hard to show off a difficult level is the level is difficult because of 'jank' when you just show someone getting a perfect run of it lol. the pachinko machine was made to look easy in the video honestly and it didnt look janky at all which i feel for the nature of the video is kind of ruining the purpose of the video....can't really show how hard it is with out showing the jank. otherwise it just looks normal
Darker Side took me hours to beat on my first run of it. I started my first attempt by saying "Nintendo levels, especially the ones in Odyssey, aren't that hard. How hard could this "challenge" be?" I was so wrong...
3d land was my first mario game with these kinda levels and nothing hurts more than when I finally got to the "thank you!!" I fell of the map because I went on the unfolding green thing
He did it on the WiiU version, but I agree. Ive only managed to get it once on the WiiU version and I dont own the game anymore which is why I bought it for the switch. And Ive beaten it on there maybe 5 or 6 times by now
I managed to finish most of them, and they are really hard, the one I suffered the most was Mario Galaxy 2, but I'm still suffering with Mario Wonder, I can't get past the invisible part, it's HELL!! They still say Mario is a child's game.
Fuck the Super Mario Wonder Special World levels. I swear they’re such a difficulty spike compared to the main game which is pretty easy in and of itself. Which I get is the standard for Special Worlds, but these ones are downright sadistic in nature.
Yes, and now just imagine passing those levels with 2 other people. Believe me, if your friends (in my case my brother and my best friend) don't know how to play, you're going to have a bad time.
@@RayoMcQueen95990 nah, the history/main game is very easy, the special world is another thing, maybe you are a super pro tryhard gamer, but for us the mortals is other thing
@@El_Alex64_I am trying to 100% mario wonder for the second time and I'm dreading the special world levels.Especially the wonder gauntlet (i use yoshi in this one) the final badge marathon and that one where you are a goomba
