[@gamesdonequick]

Runner introduction starts at 0:57 Run starts at 1:47 Prizes starts at 1:51:10 Commentary is provided by wesdogg and artemis Mr. Game and Shout is host

[@Talkren]

1:34:24 That's me and that's my Ben! He was so excited to hear this read out that he was jumping for joy for about 20 minutes after. Thank you for making his week and you also made a GDQ fan for life.

[@MrQuankster]

Wesdogg is awesome on the “couch.” Sounds like a radio host. Also both Artemis and Wesdogg gave great knowledge commentary And of course incredible run Simply.

[@ThEjOkErIsWiLd00]

Man, an absolutely stellar speedrun + sharp and witty commentators, what more could you ask for?

[@MotoMoto9191]

"The chance of that happening is 100%" lmao my favorite line during the speedrun

[@YawnMK1]

That and "yeah, Nintendo. I love that company. Ocasionally"

[@Shuck1t]

It just raises the stakes for commentary. These guys knew the game and knew when to inject humor. A hilarious moment that built suspense for the viewers. Thank you again GDQ team, and of course thank you to all the runners.

[@tommyross3298]

That was up there for me. That and when Artemis said "I looked up to you, man..."

[@jesselynds5411]

mine was 'dadadadadada peanut soup, dadadadadada peanut soup, i want some peanut soup yeaaaaaaaaah'

[@lornekerzner5718]

The start is amazing, "Long time watcher, first time...watcher" lmao

[@Megaman.ExE7]

Like what did bro even mean by this?! lol

[@MenloMarseilles]

@@Megaman.ExE7 maybe "long time watcher first time commentator"? 🤔 either that or she was riffing on the goof Simply did in his practice stream where he was "reading" made up nonsensical donations during lulls

[@Imatallguy1]

Simply's dedication is an inspiration to many. Also he's a goof and everyone loves him.

[@hamoribi]

One of the best commentators I've ever seen in a gdq run before. They are amazing mc's and Wes is one hell of a hype man on top of that

[@goodnightgirl]

38:09 Amazing commentary by Wesdogg and Artemis throughout this whole run, this was maybe the funniest thing I heard all GDQ.

[@hyruleflower5695]

love your tracker tutorials!

[@jennaleclaire2654]

Great job Simply! You got out all your mistakes and nerves in your practice runs and played this one smooth as butter.

[@RobertMitchellX]

Simply is a beast, in such a competitive category in an iconic game he gets a time that would be 16th on the current leaderboard. At a GDQ marathon! Well done.

[@ryanhlfc]

he doesn’t really make any mistakes until DDD either!

[@Oscar797]

1:30:08 the comedic timing on that was hysterical

[@TahuNuva2008]

I have never seen a donation goal get clutched out that fast HOLY HELL

[@adequateceramics]

(1:22:27) Simply freestyle lyrics: Yeah, I'm speedrunnin' at SGDQ And Imma get stars too And look at how Mario moves If we don't hit the BDSP goal then I will be playin' the blues

[@TheRealFLDB]

This is probably one of the best runs I've seen during a GDQ event with an absolute perfect ending of getting that incentive simultaneously as the 120 star run ending. Great job @Simply!

[@jarroddobben]

After his most recent video I legit cannot believe he got such a good time

[@noseph_]

LETS GO SIMPLYYYYYY

[@rogen8094]

Night and day difference between this and his practice run! Simply really knows how to pull out the clutch! Well done!

[@Nicholas_Steel]

Nice speedrun. A big improvement over the past GDQ speedruns of the game I've seen over the years.

[@babbalad]

Simply is my favorite SM64 speedrunner wish I would have caught this live.

[@mhaj58]

Best GDQ run yet. Simply the best

[@GCAT01Living]

I never get tired of people joking about the "challenge" of the Toad stars. Absolutely fantastic run and wonderful commentary.

[@HollyWoomy]

This was SUCH an incredible run!!! That finale had me so hyped!

[@EduardoWeidmanBarijan]

Mario 64 never gets old to watch. What an awesome run, fantastic time and great commentary and donations!

[@jamesbaker6006]

Fascinating run, I remember playing this when it first came out I was around 11 years old, watching how this game has just been completely dissected and broken apart is sad but so awesome at the same time, great run simply thank you gdq.

[@robertswartz3010]

New favorite run, period. Loved seeing the new micro optimizations developed over the years. Simply great, engaging and hilarious commentary. Props all around!

[@bisoromi]

Awesome run!!

[@DJRAtherton]

I had to rewind canonless to confirm what star he got that was unbelievably quick

[@alvarostockle]

The run was incredible and the commentary top notch. I'm so glad they met the goal for SM64!

[@jesselynds5411]

i wish i grew up in a generation where parents played video games when you were a kid. i missed it by probably 5 years or so. i mean now my mom plays mobile puzzle games. but i'm talking, playing world of warcraft, or breath of the wild, or pokemon. that would've been so cool to have a parent to bond with over what's such a big part of my life. the one thing i can say, is that when gta 3 came out, my mom came into the store and got angry at the gamestop clerk for not selling it to me at 11 years old. that was a good moment.

[@nicklange2962]

Great run, happy to have all that available on KZbin

[@JasonOvalles]

1:11:48 I think the stage and enemies are all changing sizes. Mario stays the same size. I say this because the coins, stars, etc, are all still the same size relative to Mario.

[@NioNerd]

Amazing run! I love to see all of the fancy and quick movements in these speed runs. Also, is Wesdogg an actual sports commentator? Holy shit, his voice and quick quips are fantastic.

[@hfcriske]

Love the run, love the commentators, this is what it should be like. A+

[@TiloDroid]

great run, love to see 120 again at gdq and simply is a great representative of the sm64 community! I hope we get some sm64 races again at gdq to see even more of the lovely faces of our favorite top runners

[@patrickmadisoncomedy]

Wessdogg is such a delight to listen to as Simply displays masterful techniques and Artemis helps me understand what's happening. Great run, keep it up yall!

[@c0mmment]

this run is the most cleanest mario 64 ive eever seen. Great commentators too

[@PopapolEZO]

Incredible. I had no expectations after his practice run of 1:44:?? just before SGDQ and then he pulls this out. Awesome!

[@lunaumbra5179]

Very fun watching the challenge bar climb at the end and both finishing together. It got my heart rate up.

[@olliezoop]

This run was so fun to watch live 😊

[@dark_tyranitar3195]

If they could get cheese and simply to do a co-op run that would be perfection.

[@domcactus]

Dude Simply looked so nervous at the start and still managed to pull off an incredible performance.

[@sirbrainwaves1268]

I loved the world record holder in Damageless bit. Got a good chuckle out of me anyway remembering those shenanigans.

[@Blarsen780]

Great run and enjoyable commentary from everyone. Love the SM64 community.

[@joestanosheck1453]

"what are we doing ? We need to sing him a song!". Simply's WR run was my first speedran video and it's still my favorite. Congratulations on GDQ 120 Star Mario record Simply!

[@Coraax]

Hype at the end meeting the incentive was amazing :D

[@dxirequiem5705]

Great run, Simply; thank you all for the event as always!

[@pedroreyes959]

Such a fun run to watch! Enjoyed every bit of it!

[@turnpirat]

1:06:50 soo funny how simply nearly starts laughing during the akward silence after answering the question xD

[@ViolinistJeff]

1:33:50 ...if you´re afraid of anything, you don´t just cower back, you tackle it head-on. Great comment.

[@Cowsrsocool]

Awesome job Simply!

[@XxbelligerentxX]

Great run. Simply has quickly become one of my favorite runners over the past few years. Looking forward to his next GDQ appearance!

[@DarkCloud7]

The tension at the end was thrilling.

[@darkviris]

No Owls were harmed in this production

[@noThankyou-g5c]

What a beautiful runner introduction. absolutely immaculate. im in tears right now

[@mehimself3623]

thats a great video, with great hosts and great runner. enjoyed it a lot

[@dangerfindertreasureseeker8905]

What a fun run, Simply did just an amazing job. Commentary was spot on and of course Mr Game & Shout earned his name just fantastic!!!🤣😂😁

[@dirtysmoky]

overall very impressive run for a gdq. hit tough strats under pressure.

[@Vinicola.Colibri]

SIMPLY!! What a wonderful sight to see you in GDQ! Congrats!

[@tobstobros76]

Mario N64 is always a must watch

[@realmslayerxx725]

I’ve never seen someone move Mario with such skill. A mechanical god

[@AustinPaulMusic]

This has got to be the most hype ending to a run I’ve ever seen hahaha incredible!!!

[@andrewoverhere8525]

I believe Wesdogg commentated a few of those 1v1s on Simple's channel? Dude got a lot of good pops out of me, funny dude!

[@SushiElemental]

Simply brought the sauce on this one, holy cow 🐄

[@yote6002]

half the run with WR potential simply.

[@MijitB]

super clean run. excellent example of 120

[@Aenima316]

This guy has mastered his craft.

[@maxtheis752]

GDQ record! That's simply baby!!

[@AffenKloPutzer]

Wish I would have seen this live. What a race between the donation incentive and simply in the end!

[@ShadedTopaz1]

Nice work! Amazing run!

[@Flacoisbored]

What a swaggy run🔥🔥 legendary!

[@GameMaster0097]

Absolutely incredible run!

[@stephenbines3108]

Man I’d love to see simply do Super Mario Odyssey someday!

[@malibujukebox]

Such a great run, Simply! Always love me some SM64 GDQ runs. Also, Wesdogg has a perfect commentator voice.

[@keeskoole919]

Always great to see a simply run, awesome to have simply at GDQ

[@gothrockmike]

Fantastic run by Simply!

[@Jesse110]

This was such a good run for a marathon run. Awesome job!

[@lilperkten3685]

What’s so badass thing about simply, everything is going to come down to camera angles and he makes it look easy

[@jeffreyszcinskiii5181]

Worth noting that so many optimizations are here that were not explained. If you like this I would highly recommend checking out past GDQ vids of this run

[@xavierserravila8585]

OMG Simply's a Monster!!!!!!!!!!! Awesome run!

[@MikuCV01]

That was amazing good job Simply!

[@c0v3rt59]

The commentating on this was so entertaining, awesome run!!!

[@woobou]

Amazing run : ) Thanks Simply, best of luck with next PB in the future

[@D4rkFaiL]

Amazing run!

[@ceadeu8491]

I need Wesdogg to commentate my life

[@TheLevitorres]

can we take a minute to appreciate the commenter's hype throughout all this speedrun?

[@igorndrapple1330]

Are the commentators not hearing each other? They seem to talk over each other

[@geogeotagz]

Ah! That piano is scary

[@ninatiels]

Holy crap! I didn’t think they would make the incentive goal before the game ended. Totally clutched it out in the last level

[@thatoneguyshawn]

That world record hug was so wholesome. New super Mario category? World record hug%? Lol most wholesome category ever

[@adhoccerswings]

Doing well under huge pressure is really damn impressive, ggs!! The only thing I've speedrun is minesweeper and even there my nerves can't handle it

[@JoeyKrack101]

dude rocked it. GGs

[@ovio_]

Very enjoyable run!

[@JayHimejimaGIORNOGIOVANNA]

i love the ecco2k poster so much. also such a cool run

[@evanoginsky7836]

I loved seeing his life flash before his eyes at 1:28:22 😭

[@ISoldTheWorld97]

Wesdogg is a very good commentator!

[@Moewenfels]

Best thing about the metal cap is the soundtrack :D
