How Many Jumps To Beat Super Mario RPG?

[@mickkelley3776]

Ah yes, leave it to challenge runners to take the jump out of Jump Man.

[@GlitchythePumpkin]

For the 1k time

[@fakegameboy2963]

So… he’s just Man

[@octobepis]

nintendo did that when they made super mario run

[@mickkelley3776]

@@octobepis No, you could still jump in SMR - in fact there isn't much else you CAN do when playing the actual levels. So if anything, Run was when Mario was at his jumpiest.

[@Blacknwhite..]

Ah yes, MAN. My favorite Mario character

[@jacobbrown9894]

Love the edits, it’s like getting a challenge run and a Super Mario RPG Abridged at the same time

[@DPadGamer]

Honestly I got carried away with all the edits, but I had fun making them so Im glad ya liked em :)

[@edgywolfguy-ud1ki]

Anyone else think it’s weird that an rpg requires more jumps than many of the platformers beaten with this challenge?

[@mrmechpunch4653]

Platformer based games usually have slightly more complex movement options than a turnbased rpgs (mario and luigi games are slight but not major difference)

[@DoradoDee]

19:16 This area has multiple possible outcomes after the pipe according to the order in which you hit the faces. Most of them requires to hit a block, but some contains 3 battles against some enemies, which you can do jumpless and evade one jump

[@foxfox1422]

Looking up codes is 100% fair game. Challenge runners usually abuse game quirks to improve their challenges so I see no issues with that here

[@jamst5913]

When it comes to Dr. Topper I'm pretty sure he won't ever take the last coin unless you force him to, so you'd have to jump so there's only one left.

[@giraff3y]

The fact that Mario can walk underwater, but can't just swim across a short distance and has to jump across a bunch of tadpoles; is a little funny.

[@Spookybluelights]

I did not expect the level design of this game to be so intricate.

[@329link]

Regarding the sunken ship password, challenge runs like this are usually about using everything at your disposal to minimize the relevant number regardless of the exact nature of the method (assuming it is within the stated restrictions). Unless specified otherwise, things like exploits or glitches are not only accepted but outright encouraged in most cases. All you really need to look at is the A button challenge in SM64. That is WAY beyond knowing the answer to a riddle.

[@GUKingOfHeart]

@DpadGamer 19:06 You can save a Jump or two, by jumping off the Shawman's head and onto the tongue.

[@StrudelDoodles]

I didn’t realize just how many times you have to jump in this game! The edits are hilarious too!

[@ccheart8574]

"You're forced to memorize because you only have five seconds to answer." ...You mean you hadn't yet figured out that you could just push the homescreen button to pause the timer and look up the question and answer? Oh, you poor soul.

[@strangefishman7635]

"Those stairs are your sins, Mario. All 286 of 'em."

[@BFree961]

Very entertaining editing. The run was really cool too.

[@DPadGamer]

Glad you enjoyed it :)

[@PigmanStudio]

Great video! Love the edits. Super underrated

[@DPadGamer]

Thanks :]

[@anthonynorman7545]

If the game doesn't require you to find the hints, it's fair game to skip them.

[@herobrinesbestminion6766]

lowest level for "why is everyone screaming I destroyed him in 23 rounds without intense statboost combos and 100 chainjumps ez" next?

[@AlienXtream1]

on the matter of "doing things legitimately", i dont think its relevent. the titular question is "how many jumps *does* it take" not "how many jumps does it tame *me*". ergo, both "jumping" into save blocks and the password puzzle skips are fine. the question is being asked of the hypothetical "min jumps" run, not the jumps you used to beat it. sort of like the idea of a "sum of best" or TAS demos in speedrunning. that also means that, in my books, you dont strictly have to restart if you find yourself failing a section and having to backtrack and i think you should remember that for your own sanity in future, assuming you dont already just "retry" by navigating back to the start rather than reloading. its not a contest so i think most of us would agree if you don't do it "legit" its not a problem; like only counting the number of jumps it takes to do the spinning flower trick successfully or only counting the platforming section attempt that succeeds or is the theoretical best but beyond your personal ability.

[@kermitlovers1039]

Nice editing here!

[@rhys8981]

Rad video, man

[@GUKingOfHeart]

23:03 Not this spot, but there's a tree monster with a spiny below. This spiny can be jump on quite easy.. no clue if it saves a jump or not since I didn't see it in your gameplay.

[@iamlucidess]

Bonus challenge for the viewers: Every time Mario jumps, you have to jump too.

[@PKMNwww411_MkII]

There are 3 jumps that can be saved in Belome's Temple.

[@The_Goofy_Plush]

Keep an eye out on this jump number, and see how many jumps it takes to get through just this section, its a lot, (counter: 44) 12:18, 13:26 the counter is now at 91, meaning he jumped 47 times just in this section,

[@Leonard.L.Church]

Very nice!

[@doctorlion]

11:59 I hope in not the only one that thought of Monty Python and the Holy Grail here

[@DPadGamer]

Ayyy! That was exactly what I was going for, I just wasn't sure if it came across well enough.

[@Iristhornz]

Yooooo, the frolf reference! Best game ever

[@RonanRobinson-mp2ye]

I love these videos.

[@RonanRobinson-mp2ye]

I counted 47 on the tower 47!

[@RetroCheats]

19:06 I got a tutorial for an easy setup, to jump on the shawman's head.

[@chasezly]

did NOT expect that voice acting

[@Sussy_Sturmtiger]

Sweet video

[@Nirakolov]

Mario RPG needs more jumps than all previous mario games combined... neat

[@thema1998]

Today is the *1* year anniversary of when "How Many Jumps To Beat Super Mario RPG?" was uploaded! Since I can't beat Johnny, the amount of jumps for me to beat "Super Mario RPG" are going to have to be higher than your amount of jumps. 🤓➡️😅

[@JordanSmith-bu5cq]

Funny how an rpg needed so many more jumps than all those platformers you did.

[@AlienXtream1]

it is. but also consider the length of the RPGs verses the platformers. when you look at the optimal min jumps paths on the platformers v RPG on a "per play time" basis then they probably have a similar density of jumps, just that with the RPG there's a lot more game to go through

[@ShinMajin]

There's a speedrun trick where you can skip the Belope Temple switches by jumping on the edge of the shaman's head. This would save jumps.

[@AlienXtream1]

ironically.

[@GUKingOfHeart]

30:29 save a jump by using the ghost?

[@DPadGamer]

I like the idea but logistically since crossing that gap only requires two jumps we would have to jump onto the ghost and then jump off so it wouldn't really save anything

[@MudkipdeVainilla]

11:09 don’t you have to use it in the forest in the boss battle?

[@marioninatendo4905]

I am questioning why I enjoy the remake so much better than the original since it’s barely any different.

[@TheLegoNation]

This is my favorite video game

[@Noice6378]

I think in belome temple you can jump onto the person near the heads that you have to jump for the code you jump into of him and with another jump you can skip the head pattern and skip the blocks

[@Noice6378]

It would save jumps

[@DPadGamer]

I tried that doesn't work

[@pikachupower0025]

Hold on, they aren’t the Power Rangers. They are the Psycho Rangers or Lord Zedd’s Dark Rangers

[@DPadGamer]

I know they're the Axem Rangers, but now I think they're all dead rangers :D

[@hauntedshadowslegacy2826]

The one and only thing I don't like about this remake is the unnecessary name changes. Like, I get changing Frogfucius to Frog Sage, but c'mon... Mack to Claymorton? Yaridovich to Speardovich? Why??? We can see that Mack is on a giant bouncy sword. We can see that Yaridovich is a spear. To my knowledge, there's nothing offensive about either of those names, so why even change them? That said, love the run. Despite my nitpick, I'd still love to play the remake myself.

[@F1areon]

"Mack" was named that bc the translators in the original game assumed he was a knife (so "Mack the Knife"), when he wasn't: he's a little claymore sword. As for "Yaridovich"... most people aren't gonna know that "yari" is the Japanese word for "spear", so that had to get changed to make it more obvious.

You’re right, Mallow is my new favorite soft boi

Am I the only one who found smithy to be a pretty easy fight?

[@DPadGamer]

Hmmm probably not. I did the bare minimum amount of fights tbh, basically never did any side objectives (lest i be required to jump) so I felt a little under geared for Smithy.
