[@lutyanoalves444]

Thanks!

[@OurVividHD]

bumping fore more use

[@Lospe123196]

Thank youu

[@stevenschiro1838]

love hearing all the technical explanations. They really put a lot of thought into making a quality game, since Mario 3 did stuff it shouldn't have been able to.

[@TheJohnStacy]

I watch these runs while doing copyist work. Breaks the monotony. And I really enjoy the guy giving technical commentary. As for the people saying he doesn't have social skills...he's sitting in front. Nobody behind him is saying "shut up." People are asking questions TO HIM ABOUT THE GAME. Last time I checked, answering questions is socially acceptable. He didn't talk that much, comparitively. JFC people complain about everything nowadays.

[@yoshifirebird1965]

Natural selection has produced a generation of facile hedonists who think information cannot produce pleasure and have no intrigue in the function of the world around them. I have been a programmer for many years and am going to school for a bachelors in science for computer science. Watching this run inspired me to begin my own reverse engineering project of Jnes SMB3 simulation and I am currently documenting the 65,535 byte memory page dedicated to SMB3 in memory. In the process I may also produce documentation for Jnes and its software representation of the NES' original hardware processing. Cheers from Canada.

[@ryancee7]

I really enjoyed the guy on the left that shared all the facts about the NES, I found it very interesting. I never really realized how much the game pulled a few tricks out in order to achieve what seems so simple, but infact is playing on the capabilities on the NES.

[@DontYouLookAtMe.]

haha around 50:00 well you can tell the runner wanted him to stop talking so much. This is just speedruning, we dont need to know the engineer side of it. god he really doesnt shut the hell up.

[@bjrnb9042]

1:06:20 Smart smb3 developer: ”hey. I have an idea. Let’s have this new super cool item that troughs hammers, and let’s not develop any gameplay around it, but instead just hide 3 of them in the difficult worlds near the end, so the player won’t be able to keep it on for more that 2 minutes”

[@jak2k3]

so i dont know if they actually read all these but i saw these guys doing this about a week ago on here and i have been hooked ever since!!! this is the best thing to show people the fastest way to get any game and it is a great way to help stop cancer!! gotta really give you guys props... and got to get a paypal account so i can donate as well :) keep up the good work and God Bless!

[@Alex-zw7sr]

The tech guy's stuff is pretty interesting if you know coding. I don't think he was being pretentious, I think he just got excited to talk about it.

[@joshfish2]

+Alex Byars lol true, but you have to admit he did talk about it in a bit too much detail and it was awkward seeing everyone either fall asleep or simply hear nothing but his voice.

[@Zenardo]

You can find the Tanookis in: World 4:5 World 5:5 World 6:3 World 7:fortress 1

[@JaimeGza]

What's the name of the guy on the left sharing all the Tech NES facts? He should write a book :p

[@mikehanson4622]

You lot always do some of the best videos with good humor, great gameplay, and for wonderful causes. Four stars the whole way. Keep it up!

[@GhoulishGwyn]

Am I the only one who found Mustache Man's facts incredibly interesting?

[@yank3970]

thanks for sharing SpeedDemosArchiveSDA

[@spacepirateivynova]

Mario 3 had an extra mapping chip allowing it to do two things, it could scroll in both left/right and up/down directions at the same time (diagonals) and it could use some of that to do some interesting scrolling bg effects.

[@IPv6Freely]

Those are seriously the coolest looking people I've ever seen.

[@Gonzas97]

I don't have my sarcams detector anymore, it exploded about 3 years ago

[@spacepirateivynova]

Also notice how all the BG animated enemies (in the water stage with the jellyfish and the black piranha plants) are always on the same animation frame. This is much easier to do and they all draw from a single graphic that is simply changed and put into the tile array. Interestingly enough, SMB3 isn't the only game that can do masses of animated BG stuff like this, Megaman 2 (metalman stage is a great example) has a TON of animated background stuff, albeit with fewer frames on most of it. At the time, this hardware and the cart memory to support it was quite expensive. SMB3 was also ~$60 on release if I remember correctly because of this.

[@PKBeam64]

What's the name of the engineer that knows everything about the NES? Pretty cool commentary he did.

[@evilboogermonkey]

[@PKBeam64]

+evilboogermonkey a bit late for it now, but I just found out that it's "LoneKiltedNinja".

[@UncensoredRhett]

Back when ADGQ wasn't shit and possibly stealing money. Amazing.

[@Navazarian]

Underrated advice given at 50:13

[@SpeedDemosArchiveSDA]

you can watch on twitch . tv. Keep an eye on SDA's home page for info about summer games done quick.

[@Reckut88]

The quality is so good, nice job guys!

[@hammerbrother]

All of you fellow people commenting on the greatness of this run, amen to the love of gaming. all of you haters be gone, remember if there was no Mario, there would be no Halo or any video game for matter of fact!

[@bandosgodsword1000]

Congratulations on the amount raised guys, can't wait for next year.

[@Ursacke]

Even if the people in the room seemed bored by the hardware-commentary (I didn't notice myself) this was a live-stream -- the people in the room aren't representative of everyone who was watching at the time. I know he wasn't really honouring his original proposal and was instead giving ad-hoc commentary, but personally I found it fascinating. When you have a guy as knowledgeable as that, why not take advantage of him? I hope he comes back for a game or two in upcoming GDQs.

[@pizzamemes1306]

+Ursacke me too! I agree. it was cool. I don't know anything about coding/hardware but it was cool to hear about it

[@lutyanoalves444]

ikr

[@SpeedDemosArchiveSDA]

Run starts at 03:47

[@Ravenforce3]

This is all my childhood. Never tried (or wanted to) speed run it, so it's kinda jarring to see no "exploration" going on. Still fun to watch.

[@Inuyasha463]

I agree. The engineer dude was cool. I'm a programmer and I love hearing about how old games were programmed. I have a sudden urge to go look up the NES's specs.

[@xPrayxWoodcutx]

First person to say that this was the best marathon ever!!

[@VideosbySteve]

Give the engineer a better mic.

[@thielenm]

I thought the reason the laser gun only works on CRTs is because it depends on the way a CRT works which is by drawing each line on the screen with a beam of light.

[@Fatrick_Star]

so awesome what they doing I have cancer myself and don't think I make 2016 my mom had cancer and died 3 years ago I hope that someday they will find a cure for cancer so keep on the good work

[@damiencross5110]

+Dead--living I am sorry to hear that. I hope you are at least comfortable and that you can find peace. I'll keep you in my thoughts.

[@Fatrick_Star]

+Damien Cross thanks

[@ThePhinnDiesel]

did ya make it?

[@Chriib]

If you don't grab the wand in midair, you might aswell not play the game.

[@VideosbySteve]

Exactly. Same with the Mega Man games- you gotta jump at the boss doors, otherwise dont bother playing at all.

[@Trikill3R935]

It's faster to grab it while on the ground because Mario's falling speed is slower than the wand

[@Chriib]

Krevon Hay Maybe, but that is not true gaming.

[@Trikill3R935]

Exactly, it's speedrunning

[@mechabubba]

Grabbing the wand in midair takes longer because you have to fall to the ground for the cutscene. :3

[@Oldvideosfromtheinternet]

i just started watching and those two guys remind me of mario and luigi. :) btw sda and all the runners, you guys are the third best things in the universe!

[@empire0]

I actually like the commentary from the guy on the couch, he knows his stuff. It beats listening to the stupid comments from the donations.

[@johnRhouy]

That crowd is huge guys, keep up the awesome work!

[@Empolo18]

Man at the beginning of World 7 the salt was real.

[@OniXY666]

Watching In November 2022... 9 years from video release... 30 ish years since game release??? Still an astounding work of art.

[@daeithebest]

WOW... I never thought you could crouch behind Bowser's smash hit, and not being hit by it... Pretty weird, awesome run...

[@alexandrelima5666]

i played so much this game on my childhood so good memories

[@jcventura90]

Please allow that guy from the right be in more speed runs he is such a nice guy and he says amazing facts... GOOD JOB!

[@Radiatron89]

This runner is amazing. Respect.

[@Penfold8]

3:50 the run actually starts

[@Thegamingphenomenons]

Anyone else like how he jams out every spare second he gets?

[@jbone10001]

I, as a gamer wish to contribute, love all the runs etc. Really want to feel connected with the community

[@spacepirateivynova]

Commander Keen had a neat system where it would only update the pixels that actually changed color. This worked well on the older keen games where you had large single-color backgrounds. Later games had the benefit of better processing and math-coprocessing and better code in general. The NES has specific dedicated hardware mappers that were made to move the tiles around instead of having to literally process the scene pixel by pixel with a single non-dedicated chip, so it could scroll things a lot better than existing PC hardware at the time. A detailed explanation of this is in the book 'Masters of Doom'.

[@SpeedDemosArchiveSDA]

never hurts to watch again lol

[@PhotoYo]

After an hour of that dude talking about random game code etc they ALL look salty af

[@rooneye]

+letsplaywilly I love that shit, its fascinating to me

[@altoidyoda]

That was the best part! I wish he just had his own videos explaining and demonstrating all that stuff.

[@sergiogodinez3770]

They should have given him a microphone, though. To hear him just as clearly as the comentator reading donations.

[@CaptViewtiful98]

Starts 3:40

[@TailsSu]

Great run! Very enthusiastic!

[@jameswoodward6926]

Great job guys keep up the good work!

[@Grimblenork]

VERY rarely does a marathon run actually go as fast as WR runs

[@pressstarttodie49]

Anymore I always play through the whole game without using whistles. Not that I think it's cheap, I just like seeing every stage.

[@SpeedDemosArchiveSDA]

it's up now

[@karatebuff]

Now this is a speed run!

[@SpeedDemosArchiveSDA]

his time was 1:20:48

[@NoahtheEpicGuy]

best speedrun I've seen. There's so much funny stuff, it's not even funn- wait, sorry bad joke. No, seriously, this is the funniest thing I've ever seen.

[@xxbloxxx6806]

wow now this is a hardcore gamer hes just beating the game to him this must be very easy for him it also seems like he has had his training at playing super mario world 3 : D

[@Kharonas]

I love learning new things/ getting a recap. Keep up the education! haha

[@IHAVU]

this looks like the irate gamer at a quick glance

[@score1forpeter]

Im pretty new to SDA's channel. How often do they stream like this for cancer? Is it once a year or multiple times? Also, how long do the streams usually last?

[@MilesFox]

Why U no swim under battleship?

[@kingwilliams2004]

Amazing speed run :)

[@Troglodite89]

I actually liked when the guy (sorry couldn't remember your name guy!) talked about the hardware and technical stuff

[@banquoF]

I LOVE the nerd to the right giving out random facts.Awesome!

[@nemesisrag]

awesome run awesome game awesome speed demos archive!!!!

[@MrIllusiongamer12]

There is only 2 marathons in the year, the next one is at the end of July

[@DiSTANToblivion]

When do these marathons take place? I'd like to be able to donate and watch live.

[@slickbricknick123]

Do you always do these events in Maryland? It looks like the same room. Reason I'm asking is because I live in Maryland and would live to meet you all. Maybe even do my own speedrun to raise money next year.

[@tenacious645]

Oh yeah is the tech guy featured or going to be featured in any more runs? I'd like to see that.

[@Bokashii]

Pfft, I liked the NES facts. Don't let the haters get you down. Educating the masses is to be lauded, even if they don't appreciate it.

[@Emanuel_64]

Esse cara já era muito bom nessa época e agora q pretendo estar no top 100 speedrunners desse jogo, esses caras me influenciam

[@SpeedDemosArchiveSDA]

Summer!

[@ichaukan]

I'm still surprised that nobody asked the engineer guy why the Kuribo shoe can randomly crash the game.

[@KountryKowboy29]

Pause it between 1:18:07 to 1:18:09 the wrencher on the airship hits him with the wrench he bounced with the frog suit on and it glitches right through him. Was it a consequence who knows?

[@TheWayToTheDawnVIII]

I see some people om the comments saying the engineer guy was annoying. From what I have watched so far, I think most of what he said is very interesting. I just found out about this about a month ago so I don't know if he is there a lot during the live streams, but I,.for one, would like to see him there more often.

[@ramiel555]

yep, it's amazing how much people are fiercely opposing the idea of learning some new things about a medium that they, presumably because they're watching this, enjoy thoroughly. Oh well, can't have too high of expectations regarding random people online >.

[@Stormghetti]

I cried with some of the donations ;_; (not because they were low, it's because the stories were very touching).

[@AndrewKillsss]

Thank u i agree

[@Stormghetti]

andrew calderon So... hearthwarming...

[@Stormghetti]

***** ;_;

[@ZFMusicTheEmperor]

Andrusto100 You better pop dat zit

[@Stormghetti]

***** Well, that was weird, >-> but I feel you.

[@stonie0420]

you know you can kill bowser with the frog suit, it is extremely hard to make that last jump out though when you make him fall through the floor

[@GoogleVideoMan]

better than the super bowl

[@DickJohnson3434]

AMAZING video! DREADFUL audio!

[@RantNavv]

Enjoyed the guy talking about how the game was programmed etc, wish he was a bit louder, it's hard to hear him.

[@chriswinkle3235]

1:10:30 if you didn't catch this after the pony tail guy's rant........... to me one of the most subtle ways of saying SHUT THE FUCK UP

[@chriswinkle3235]

+Chris Winkle ends at 1:10:47 lolol

[@GSF4life14]

Who's the guy on the left side of the couch, I see him in almost all the runs in 2013

[@callumsmith1074]

is TJP a drummer? it seems like he has a beat to him, how he is always tapping the controler like that :P

[@_Snowflame]

Did we see any World Records broken during the marathon?

[@movinaking]

Man i love this game

[@hollandkaas]

The tapping....stop the FUCKING TAPPING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH

[@OtesTube]

i think he had mentioned that he was having issues with the B button but still too much tapping

[@hollandkaas]

OtesTube Yeah he overtapped

[@didma]

love dat game so much. awesome run

[@bigallen1382]

sprites! sprites everywhere!

[@johnRhouy]

I love that one guys knowledge about the Nintendo system and its hardware, but I just want Piccolo from Dragon Ball Z Abridged to yell, "Nerd!" when he keeps going on about the sprite drawing

[@AudioAndroid]

Be neat if this guy could time travel and some how end up one of the first public testers of Super Mario Bros 3. To see the look on the developers faces when he tears their newly design game apart would be priceless. STOP Production! We made the game to easy!

[@tenacious645]

B button issues and still destroys this game. I LOVE AGDQ!

[@Giesela0815]

Great run, although I think they should have given the runner and couch some microphones or headset so we can understand them more clearly.

[@Rustoization]

2 things: All the donation notes sound like they were written by the same person. And, it bugs me how when they say "put this toward......" because I have no idea what they are talking about. Are they games? Because ive never heard of any of them..

[@hamburgerhoarder5391]

Drew V all of them are games

[@limitless53]

all the guys that make the runs are chosen by you? or anyone can go and run?

[@aninverse]

NES Jesus has ALL the facts on that hardware. Respect. He must go through sweater cuffs at a staggering rate though.

[@cfel6879]

Fuck, I commend the runner for not snapping and killing that mustached, pony-tailed women.

[@kennethkjen1996]

im 3 mins in the run, but may i ask why?

[@DaleBurnsJr]

23:28 is one example

[@ThePhinnDiesel]

watching this for the first time... he's already starting to get annoying. trying to explain why a NES does what it does; it's like a toddler saying he went "boom-boom"... anyone can do it. dude/chick is annoying as shit..

[@brendananderson39]

Where are these guys located? I see a guy wearing a Canada hoodie.

[@mattferrerisLA]

when are u guys doing this again

[@Fluttershythesecond]

So I clicked on this thinking, "ooh, another speedrun from this year. I'm going to watch it now." And then I realized that I saw this one live... oops.

[@granitetanker6698]

This stream actually makes me hate cancer. Like i know its there but when I watch AGDQ stuff I actually get pissed at cancer for being a thing.

[@shultzoenternal5834]

then you should know they do nothing to help research for treatment
