Great video! It's easy to not realize this when only watching successful runs, so I want to emphasize how unlikely it is for the game to take you to the credits, even if you do everything correctly. If you want to try this yourself, don't be discouraged if the game just crashes the first few (dozen) times. For some reason, the credits warp seems even less likely the faster your run is, at least after a certain point.

[@Rumboats]

Lol I tried this run like 3 years ago and thought my problem was that I was playing on the Switch. Might give it another go now.

[@darkriolu27]

@@Rumboats I believe the Switch version won't work because it just closes the game if it crashes. This works on the NES or Kirby's Dream Collection version of Kirby's Adventure.

[@doomusrlc]

Playing the original NES cartridge,, my game crashed once and deleted the profile/game I was playing on. Wonder if this glitch is what I unintentionally did lol Edit: ok watching this so far, nope this isn't what happened lol

[@ZachGatesHere]

"Fun fact: Kirby is not Mario." See this is why I love KZbin. I'm always learning new things.

[@moosesues8887]

But Mario is in Kirby in like 5 games

[@Bisqwit]

Thanks for mentioning my TAS! A quite embarrassing fact about my TAS was that, although it was the first of its kind for this game, I _did not know_ at the time that Kirby could run by pressing the directional button twice in succession. As someone who led the TAS community at the time and continuously stressed how important it is to do your research, this was something I had no excuse for. And it was not the only game where I failed similarly. Still, it was the first one, so there’s that. As for PAL/NTSC, these were the early days of TASVideos, and there was a lot that I did not know either. We got better.

[@Storster]

Glad to see you here. Thank you so much for all your contributions and I'm happy to see you lurking around here! It definitely was a different era, but hey things evolve. Really awesome to see how far every community has come!

[@HeavySighSA]

It's okay man, that just means you were just doing the first speedwalk of the game.

[@endymallorn]

And the fact that you admit it makes you a great person. Thank you.

[@earthboiproductions2407]

Hey, it happens to the best of us! Honestly an understandable mistake, considering Kirby couldn’t run in previous titles.

[@ecernosoft3096]

I....... never knew that either.

[@judas.isariot]

"Like people on dating app, they are looking for perfection" suddenly storster breaking the best punchline in years.

[@-12Sided]

It’s so true

[@travisbarrett1255]

"Mess-huggah" sheesh got me with that one

[@Verklompen]

Meh-shuggah (Meshuggah) is a Swedish metal band formed either in the late 80s or early 90s... Wikipedia will help

[@JamesLewis2]

MESHUGGAH was named after the Yiddish word for "crazy", pronounced "meh-SHOOG-gah" (a bit like "meh sugar" without the final r-sound); Riolu is pronounced "REE-oh-loo".

[@tomlegere8756]

No this guy just loves messes. He wants to hug them

[@hanselmanryanjames]

Most likely named after the metal band Meshuggah.

[@Chungenour]

You never fail to impress me with these amazing videos. It's nice to see someone give Kirbys Adventure some attention. This speedgame is extremely underrated

[@Fennecs]

hello chung undertale

[@ivoryvt]

18:33 - I know the actual number is technically 39.980, but it's pretty funny that the footage stops it at "39.86". 86 is an important number for Kirby because in Japanese the number 86 is pronounced similarly to the word "HAL". In Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, the maximum EXP number is 39860, which sounds like "Thank you HAL" when pronounced in Japanese.

[@crae_zi4543]

i love that ! so cool

[@TheTerrificTracy]

Glad to see this came out so well. And glad I could help. I honestly didn't know about those really early TAS runs, that was fascinating to see. Knowing more of the history to this game is awesome.

[@Controllerhead]

Awesome Video!!! Very pleased this history is documented now. You did a wonderful justice to the community and all of the hard work that was performed for those of us who love this game. Thanks for the memories =)

[@bananacat3109]

you've been blowing up recently, speedrun wr history videos are always appreciated

[@J4CKNO1R]

Fun fact: the start+select glitch is pretty easy for a person to do and it also works with sword, hammer, and parasol too!

[@shanerichmond4433]

Sorry if this isn’t the compliment you’re looking for, but your page came up after Summoning Salt videos…I wait for his videos to come out and I now await the release of new videos from you too. Thanks for all the hard work putting these together! It’s a real art to make these videos so engaging even if I don’t care/ know about the game you are speaking of. People need to subscribe ASAP

[@mynameisnothere9465]

That's how I found him the other day too! So glad I did. (The algorithm is in your favor now Storster!) I hope you watch Karl Jobst too, you absolute legend, you?

[@shanerichmond4433]

@@mynameisnothere9465 I don’t know, ever since his own personal run cheating confession, I’m worried Billy Mitchell can now go after him hahaha. No…love Karl Jobst, he is an Absolute Legend. Any other recommendations for who to check out?

[@Kgfao]

"Just like a lot people on dating apps, they were ultimately looking for perfection." Bro that got me 😂

[@TheLemonyBard]

I knew what the final resulting run would be, but this video was an excellent way to look at the history of the run and contextualize it all.

[@buck2817]

This was a fun watch. I appreciate having access to this information in video format like this, as otherwise I would never have the time or energy to go off an learn about a thing like the history of Kirby TAS.

[@ellianagrant6294]

Oooh super excited to see what this video has in store! I’ve been loving your content!

[@cozmiccow9936]

Kirby's Adventure is my favorite game of all time and also the first I ever completed as a kid. So great to see it get some love. Great job on the vid!

[@BattleGh0stz]

Amazing video as always, cant wait to finish it.

[@filthy7790]

Always love to see a Storster video. Keep up the good work

[@MarMaxGaming]

LMAO I've done edits like 6:12 before. It happens, way to correct and keep it movin!

[@MarMaxGaming]

haha 10:40 caught me off guard, silly line. This was a really interesting and cool vid on the history!

[@sidthesquid4206]

That was a really interesting history

[@BC465]

Awesome video! Always love seeing Kirby runs explored in depth! Any plans for more in the future? :3

[@MrMegaManFan]

Another great video with amazing runs!

[@JanusHoW]

So this is what happens when Kirbo gets possessed by the Speed Demon...

[@ItsMeYourRealDad]

I really look forward to these uploads and they never disappoint

[@MarMaxGaming]

I like it! glad this content was recommended to me!

[@cheesemanzombie9151]

New storster video is always exciting

[@PlayMadness]

Lmao did this guy just pronounce "Meshuggah" as "mess hugger" 😂

[@maxis2k]

I'm not going for a speedrun. But I always try to go for a no damage run whenever I replay this game. And that lag from on screen enemies/effects is usually the thing that messes me up. Still, it's one of my all time favorite games so I don't mind playing it over and over.

[@OldschoolRichSpeedruns]

Good stuff Storster! :)

[@Controllerhead]

Agreed!

[@memeaddict4202]

This is a great new channel

[@Hydraxia96]

New video dropped! :O So excited to watch

[@Tetrispriter]

the scarcity of the jokes and the way each one is executed without any setup honestly makes them hit harder because you never truly see it coming. Or maybe I don't know what I'm talking about

[@GekkiSpeedruns]

Awesome video!!

[@eckitronix]

Kirby may not be Mario, but Luigi is still Ness's dad. This was a cool video, I'm surprised that there haven't been tons of KA runs, honestly

[@williamgeib1773]

the first question he asked about Kirby, the retro is the first thing I think of. Unless you ask what I think of modern day Kirby, I don't think of it. I also like the cartoon it once had.

[@nz7166]

great video!

[@foohawesom]

using a dance pad to mash, what a wild strat

[@surprisedlobsta8543]

Kirby tends to have a big focus on TASing, like those TAS videos done for Super Star Ultra and Returns to Dreamland, it's neat!

[@BoadesNordens]

lol, I didn't know that was0x, better known as 0xwas or now Illayaya used to be a TASer all the way back then too

[@evileyeball]

Kirby's adventure is among my Top 3 NES titles produced by Nintendo (The other two being Super Mario Bros 3 and Zoda's Revenge)

[@TheRealDylanTRM]

I wish there was an in depth video explaining why the glitch even happens.

[@ming562]

I'm gonna make some popcorn and share this with my friends.. after I enjoy it😈

[@StepBaum]

Great video :)

[@Zer0mavrickTV]

WAIT. Kirby isn't Mario? Mind BLOWN.

[@plazolaferreyro3416]

6:43 my favorite part

[@chanceneck8072]

Wasn´t "Riolu" an important Trackmania runner´s name??.....

[@Luckoizo]

Hey brother, first off al great video as always! I’d like to give some constructive feedback if thats okay, please dont take this as critisism. I feel like your video’s need some more introduction. Imo you immeadiatly jumped into the run with things like ‘heavily using the wheel ability’, while I dont know what the wheel ability is or does or how it could or could not affect the speedrun. Giving some basic information about the run, strategy and movement could really help your audiance to engage more with the video. Anyways goodluck further one and keep on making videos!

[@roeesi-personal]

MESHUGGAH is pronounced with the sh doing one sound (like in most words in which this sequence appears), not two. it's from the Hebrew word משוגע which means something along the lines of crazy or maniac.

[@osooso6027]

good vid

[@PlayMadness]

Reminder that the Controllerhead in this video is the same person who was ejected from AGDQ and received a lifetime ban for sexually assaulting another attendee and destroying a console provided by another atendee.

[@Controllerhead]

Dark times. I got the help I needed and am currently living a healthy and peaceful life. Mental health and addiction are no joke: Help is there if you want it. God bless.

[@NinetyLegos]

For me when someone mentions Kirby I think of Smash Bros

[@ethantasti2521]

Yes

[@ming562]

YES YES YES!!!!!!!

[@joka]

Oh hey. It's me!

[@mynameisnothere9465]

Wow, so you can use any gamepad? I'd like to see the 'politics' of speedrunning that has to do with different gamepads and such (the ddr gamepad for mashing he used). I know there's a difference between pal vs not pal, consoles, etc, but I never thought about the actual controllers until 18:18.

[@w7nt]

cool

[@WannabeMarysue]

poyo

[@NullScar]

I was here.

[@yndranth]

I hear Kirby I personally think of "furry vore"

he skipped eng class lol.

[@DaniloGanzella]

the dating app comment got me triggered hahaha

[@kiml4491]

Obligatory comment for Mr. Storster!

[@KernelPanic0]

10:11 >Preferred Pronouns: Unspecified >he I know that this profile option on TASVideos was probably added way after these people made their accounts (or even after they'd have left the site), and that this information can be gathered with high enough accuracy by looking at discussions of these members, but I think not addressing this with a note in editing makes it look like you're making unfair assumptions.

[@Storster]

I am constantly aware of people's pronouns and I found multiple times on forums where CoolKirby is referred to as "he". As someone who likes using neutral pronouns a lot personally, I'm definitely not ignorant to that.

[@KernelPanic0]

@@Storster Ah alright. Great video otherwise! I think your channel will start blowing up more soon.
