Can You Outrun a 1-Up in Mario 64? - Challenge Accepted

[@gamekxnd]

The fact that the concept is done in a group is so nice! It does make it feel like when you gather friends and just do silly stuff in games to pass time and have fun. Completing a hard challenge sounds like a good watch but watching friends just having fun attempting it is great as is! Can’t wait to see more of the series!

[@noonyx33]

Totally agree

[@MistressKuroko]

Nice comment!

[@LS1056]

It's like Myatt Maps and Mario May

Kind of like the maps Matt made in mini-golf games.

Everything about this video is a love letter to the community. - Length - Cast playing a game with absolutely zero stakes for no reason and having a good ass time - The moment the mushroom showed his power ceiling One of my favorite videos in a long time.

I really loved the bit directly after that where Gavin goes "it's like I've got ten thumbs and I've got no idea what I'm doing with them" and Matt immediately replies "most of them are up your ass". People really don't give Matt enough credit.

[@waywardgun]

I feel like literally the second Gav says "can anyone see it?" (at 24:54) you can see a tiny pixelsworth of mushroom waiting just below the iron bars in the distance, which makes sense with where the following Five Nights style jump scare happens. Can't wait for the next episode of Ringle's Rewards!

Call it "Matt Brags." Because Matt's involved and if you complete the challenge, you get to brag.

25:10 I'm trying to think what's more appropriate for this moment: the opening theme to _A New Hope_ when the Star Destroyer first appears or the part of the _Jaws_ theme where we see the entire shark for the first time.

[@tsarfox3462]

This challenge is basically the bizarro plot from Terminator. The green mushroom is out there. It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with. It doesn't feel pity or remorse or fear. And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you get one extra life

[@suzannekratosmaker7484]

Gavin's first attempt really sets the tone.

[@timslack7568]

[@Firebirdfrenzy79]

I’m getting so many Rage Quit vibes from this video and I’m entirely okay with that

[@hfar_in_the_sky]

In some ways this was an ideal video for this group: Michael could actually challenge himself and channel his Rage Quit energy, Gavin could try weird combos, Ky could experience the pain of older game mechanics first hand, Matt gets to bring community involvement back into a let's play video, and all of them get to scream their heads off.

If this becomes a series - which I hope it does - it might be nice to see these videos come out on one of the days when there are no longer let's plays.

I have a challenge that would be more for you guys having a fun twist on a favorite game than trying to complete a hard challenge, but i thought it would be an interesting challenge to play mario party while trying to end the game with a specific star and or coin amount. A set star count would be planned before hand and whoever gets closest to that by the end of the game (including bonus stars) wins. If everyone is over or under their star count then whoever is closest wins. Maybe you could even do a real life consequence for losing or a reward for winning. But I digress from the main challenge, love you guys!
