Beating Mario 64 while only moving straight is an impressive feat that requires a high level of skill and dedication. This unique challenge, also known as "Mario 64, but while only moving straight," involves completing the game without making any lateral movements, only moving forward. This means completing obstacles and defeating enemies while only moving in a straight line. The accomplishment is highly sought after by Mario 64 speedrunners and is considered a true test of mastery of the game.

"130 minutes is roughly under an hour and a half." He says with confidence 😂

[@benjaminoechsli1941]

130 minutes = 1 hour, 30 minutes, so an hour is 100 minutes. We're inventing metric time, bois. 😎

[@brok3n_806]

serious question, but what would actually be considered a good or even decent first 70 star run (on emu btw)? it might not be the best mentality, but i kinda want to know before i start running what a good time to aim for is

[@SoreTv]

@@brok3n_806 that’s for you to decide. Run the game, get a time, and use your level of happiness and content for it to determine if it was a good time.

@Brok3n_ like any speed game it's for you to set goals for yourself. Never expect to be a top runner. First do a run and improve slowly on it until your satisfied

I have a pretty hard challenge to do, get the 100 coin star in Whomp's Fortress without pressing the A button (no jumping or cannon). It's possible but pretty tricky. Took me a couple hours my first try (saw it in a reddit post).

[@unbudgingsalmon]

Ridiculously impressive, the amount of times my jaw dropped this run. Is this a world record?

[@jha51]

Needs to be,Guiness,here is your proof.

[@Cowboybebub]

For that category, most likely

[@teslainvestah5003]

@@jha51 Actually Guiness can stay home. They will recognize your run only if you pay them tens of thousands of dollars (plus travel) to send one adjudicator who knows nothing about speedrunning to watch your speedrun happen live, they print information that conflicts with the findings of a speedrunning community's own record authorities, and they randomly (when bribed?) reinstate the records of proven cheaters, including Billy Mitchel. Guiness died when the internet was born and have been a dishonest, disrespectful money-sucking zombie clown ever since. You can watch Karl Jobst's video on them but this is the short of it.

[@WiseEmerald]

Simply should play Mario but his monitor is off and he can only read chat while they tell him what to do

[@WiseEmerald]

I realized he has done this before but it was over 5 years ago
