@@jeremytewari3346 well, under him was the goal and there was a 1 block space between the spikes. Ryu held right but quickly realised that he had to get through the spikes, so he clutched out a ground pound in a semi-tight space

[@Jbesed]

@@mondherbouazizi4433 I had an idea to improve a little smm 2 which was like to put a castle level every 6 levels and at least one ghost house in between having a specific theme before the castle, so that it feels like if you were progressing in an actual super Mario game, and maybe having animations to which Bowser Jr grabs the princes and runs from castle to castle like in new super Mario Bros Ds, and maybe every time you finish a "world" you can get some collectable which may increase in rarity depending on how far you are in the run, maybe they could bring back amibos for that. I don't know, I just feel that will give it a little more sense more than just playing hard levels within a certain number of attempts

[@spicychicken2]

I've really been enjoying the MM1 videos. I agree with you. The levels feel different. I also think the 100 lives allows for 'better content'. In MM2, you wouldn't have gone through the door on the first level. You knew it was death. We knew it was death. But there's something fun/satisfying about you going through it anyways, just to see how the creator was going to kill you, and to complain about what we already knew to be true.

[@JBKiser]

Yup. I find I enjoy MM1 content more. But also cuz it's just super fun to watch Ryu play garbage levels. I dunno how fun it is for HIM to play them but it's definitely fun to watch him play them.

[@jst25]

RIP MM2. Long love King MM1!

[@Dargaran]

I disagree. I think smm2 levels are more versatile, even if I seem to be the only one with that. I also don't think it's better content that he can test more pick a pipes than in smm2. Smm1 levels are too similar to me, mostly garbage or speedrun. I still like the videos, but I hope we'll see more smm2 again.

[@RevCode]

@@Dargaran "Mostly garbage or speedrun" is how I feel about most Japanese MM2 levels, with the odd really good level in between.

[@Willowisp927]

@@RevCode Japanese and bad makers exist everywhere, but at the very least SMM2 has the boo button to flush those out. Honestly, like OP, people just like Ryu to suffer, they are sadist in some way, so SMM1 is always gonna be preferred. But damn I prefer a good level like a mindful troll one than to see him die to 'RNG pick a pipe'.

[@Acts19quiz]

4:48 One once said, "When I speak, I die." 11:08 That donut setup could be useful for something interesting like replicating the 1-2 continuously falling platforms. 14:28 Cool bankshot. 19:35 So...

[@InDeathOnlyNothing]

It's good that you didn't suffer really in this 100 challenge Ryu. Great fire flower wall climbing skills. Look forward to these because they are so random and challenging. But alot of people have been avoiding the Endless Super Expert too and that was cool when you did 6 levels of those and made it like Mario Maker 1. I think it's the 30 lives issue isn't it. I've been playing too but I don't make videos like you do. Only been doing expert 100 mans and I've had to skip some of those even. Some get too long and I stop caring and it just isn't fun anymore. I go back to it though once I feel like playing again. I wonder how much time you spend yourself watching content instead of making it. Like the majority you spend making content and very little you watch? Probably to keep making a living. Maybe I've seen things you haven't yet. Anyways, you're not alone in the struggle. I might try Super Experts again one day but I know they can be like 4 hours to finally beat 1 level too. Like 1 hour just to get to 1 checkpoint sometimes and all. Crazy.

[@BladeOfLight16]

You _deserve_ to be pleased with yourself for that save. Amazing!

You have to know they charge you money to play online, Nintendo is a greedy fuck company, you have to understand that, their fanbase including me and probably you is loyal and they use it to get max profit on every single game, be it mario, pokemon etc, they put the least effort and charge the most, that's why they are alive despite having the smallest fanbase in videogame industry.
