Donkey Kong 64 Hideout Helm: 11 Minute Timer (No glitches)

[@nikhilmurthy7096]

K. Rool's background evil laughing kicks in at the following checkpoints: * 10 minutes before Game Over (2:04) * 5 minutes before Game Over (7:03) * 3 minutes before Game Over (9:03) * 2 minutes before Game Over (10:02) * 1 minute before Game Over (11:02) * 30 seconds before Game Over (11:32) * 10 seconds before Game Over (11:52) Feel free to reply with any additional "evil laugh checkpoints" assuming the timer maxes out at 50 minutes (a.k.a. ALL 40 Blueprints are delivered to Snide).

This is impressive as hell dude, I knew you needed at least one of the pieces to the blueprints to avoid the machine going off, but damn! That was some intense speed and action. Felt straight outta the movies!

[@anonymoushonesty2688]

When I first did this at 7 years old, I thought my file would be deleted if I failed the challenge. I've never cried so hard in my life to anything less than death.

[@SomeRobIoxDude]

Did you get any blueprints beforehand? If you didnt get that many, then 💀💀💀💀

[@jordonlyn4615]

This is why I found all the blueprints

[@ErikCarlson-en4vz]

Yes, even with over 30 minutes it can still be challenging if you don't know what you're doing.

Snide: "Your island will be destroyed in 11 minutes" The Kongs: "Yeah, but we gotta showboat after every challenge!"

[@Hummingblerd]

Damn dude, this brought back my nostalgia like nothing else has! Your run was epic to watch, and with only 1 blueprint too! Impressive run my dude!

[@CountBleck2009]

I appreciate it.

[@StatickyCat]

Okay, that was WAY tighter than I expected. I appreciate you for actually PLAYING the game instead of using that bomb glitch. That was awesome! Every second really did count.

[@gameguy_64]

Nice job man. And with just seven seconds left too! Man, that was pretty intense to watch!

[@saraharnold2757]

I would be a nervous wreck if this happens when i played in 99

[@Le_Dom]

Though it filled me with anxiety, this was a solid speedrun

[@SleepyIceman6472]

11:54 Mostly excellent 007!

[@PTp1ranha]

It's funny to me that both of Tiny's minigames are based around the twirl jump. They couldn't think of another thing for her.

[@juanpablouriascruz1411]

Hello BC2009. I am watching this video 11 months after you uploaded it and there were 11 comments when I wrote this. It would be nice if this comment had exactly 11 likes.

[@derriethelm1524]

Is this possible on original hardware too? I could never do it in less than 11 minutes. Really impressive run

[@CountBleck2009]

It's possible, but takes a ton of luck too. The minigame that makes or breaks you is Chunky's where you have to find the kremling in the crate. If you have to break all 4 crates to get the kremling, your chances are slim. All the others are skill and homing ammo is a must as well to get rid of the mecha zingers with Lanky as well.

[@RainbwSpctrm]

I know it's been a little while since this was uploaded, but is there any chance of in-bounds 10 minutes being possible, TAS or otherwise?

[@CountBleck2009]

Out of bounds glitches are needed to make it in the 10 minute mark. I've never seen a TAS speedrun but it doesn't mean there isn't one out there.

[@RainbwSpctrm]

@@CountBleck2009Forgot to respond, but If I had to take a guess on how to make in-bounds 10min possible: Orange lag clipping perhaps? Specifically through the minigame room doors to skip using instruments, since the instrument and door opening cutscenes combined seems to take a total of about 10 seconds each time. Clipping through the doors instead and cleaning up a few minor mistakes such as the jump into the tag barrel as Diddy Kong after flying through the rings might make it happen while still remaining in bounds? Though this also seems to be the Wii U port which is just about a locked 30 FPS at all times.

[@superpikminbros]

Awesome! Was this played on N64 or on Wii U virtual console?

[@CountBleck2009]

Wii U Virtual Console.

[@ItMeRobin]

I was wondering what you were playing this off of. Is this the N64, Wii U or emulated on a computer?

[@CountBleck2009]

Wii U

[@ItMeRobin]

​@CountBleck2009 thank you! I don't know if you'd be able to answer this or not, but is completing Hideout Helm with only 1 Blueprint on original N64 hardware possible at all?

[@CountBleck2009]

@@ItMeRobin It is possible. I have done it, but that was a while ago, well before I started making video for KZbin again. Similar to the Wii U version or any other version, it comes down to three parts. 1) Having Homing Ammo for Chunky's Pineapple Launcher minigame, Lanky's Mecha-Zinger minigame and Diddy's Peanut Popper minigame. You have to be able to quickly eliminate enough enemies. 2) Memorized your path to the Blast-o-Matic and getting to the minigames. The Minigames can be frustrating but they are very doable other than the final point I will make. 3) The kremling that hides in the crate with Chunky honestly can make or break you if you have to smash all 4 crates.

Well played

[@dahuterschuter]

How do you get the music pads to appear?

[@saraharnold2757]
