The Quest to Beat Super Mario Maker

[@therealmichirukaiou]

I’m pretty sure everyone’s in your boat.

No, Nintendo auto deletes your level after a few days if it doesn’t get any plays

[@RandomHans]

honestly either the last dance and trimming the herbs could "thematically" fit as the final level one of them is the literal last dance, and the other could mean trimming the final herbs on a fully mowed lawn

[@SuperStamps]

hey that's my remix in the outro! this is a great video man! this entire journey was insane and so much fun to watch. I'm glad this gets to be documented for those in the future wanting to learn probably the craziest collaborative effort in gaming. Rest in Peace Mario Maker 1.

[@dragon_nammi]

As someone who is very picky about which electronic music I like, your remix is very satisfying to listen to.

[@Fritzef]

It's so poetic that The Last Dance was the final level !!!

[@T3rr0r626]

wow that is so crazy

[@AbdAbdAbdAbd]

absolute legend

[@memesong21]

it actually wasn't, but the idea of it being so is cool

[@Fritzef]

It actually was, Trimming The Herbs is not part of the real goal. Just the cherry on top.

This was.. surprisingly cinematic. The greatest way to say goodbye to smm.

[@SIGuess]

I think this video is a love letter to the community that is team 0% me and T3rr0r were so keen on seeing this communities everyday success. Ofc this video is a love letter to smm as well I personally love that game to death.

[@bluedracovx]

As a member of many Maker teams and having cleared some levels for Team 0% before it got popular, I’m happy to see videos like this come out. Videos like these are such a breath of fresh air to look into niche communities, and Mario Maker barely gets talked about. Amazing video ❤

[@AKablalik]

This video had me in tears at the end. By the time I first started playing Mario Maker, I didn’t have access to the Internet, and all of my levels at this point are probably lost to time and I’ll probably never get to play them again, but the memories that this game gave me as well as the Wii U in general are memories that I am going to miss. Memories of simpler times days where you didn’t have to worry about your mental health or whether or not you were worth anything, just days where you’d enjoy life and play games that you loved. Thank you to everyone who helped make the 0% possible, it’s kind of poetic that Trim the Herbs was beaten on my birthday. Rest in peace Wii U and 3DS, 2011 - 2024.

[@RandomDude1487]

Remember the kid who beat Tetris? I think that kid’s completion of Tetris and TTH’s completion are similar. Both were never needed to be done, never meant to be humanly possible, but many decided to do it because they could, with only one finally winning, whether by crashing Tetris or beating a botted level in Mario Maker.

[@MrPyroDude824]

It really is crazy to think how there could one day be a super Mario maker 3 and then Nintendo would do the same thing to Mario maker 2 and then imagine how many people would try to beat every Mario maker 2 level

[@MKRocky8]

We're already on mm2 lol. All 2019 levels have been cleared already and there are only 260k left for 2020-2022. We at Team 0% are getting a headstart for when nintendo eventually decides to shutdown mm2 aswell

[@OnlyTAS]

​@@MKRocky8well, good luck!

[@travisnakahira7320]

It is so inspiring that it is possible, that someone can quite literally achieve 20 seconds of actual legitimate perfection. Like it’s not even a kind of “room for error perfection” it is literally perfection.

[@SIGuess]

Incredible video as always T3rr0r. Love seeing my name in the credits of something so well put together.

[@EvilMike349]

Putting Tobacco in an already great video was a 10 out of 10 choice. Not enough people know about that dude and how dope his music is.

[@DespicableGru469]

Finally got the chance to watch this vid and man it was great. The editing was amazing, the line delivery was on point and made the topic more interesting and enthralling to learn about, everything came together so well, and the way the ending got so dramaztized, it got me goosebumps. This is definitely one of my favorite T3rr0r videos and its a shame that tts not doing that well in views compared to his other ones. Maybe it might be like an "Evil Supermen" situation where the vid takes a few weeks before it starts doing better, idk. Keep up the great work man, this high quality video is one of the reasons youve become one of my favorite youtubers in the past year or so, keep up the great work! (Also, shoutouts to Team 0% as well, they are the goats for achieving such a seemingly impossible task, espically after beating those last 10-11 levels. Hope their task of clearing every single SMM2 level goes well)

[@T3rr0r626]

Ay thanks that means a lot. Shame this one isn't doing well but these types of videos aren't going anywhere. By the end of the year, I'm looking to take that number one spot 😈

31:59 When the iconic music kicks in, its about to go down. How awesome is this, this game was literally completed, this game that would've never actually been completed was. And what better way to end it off than with a Level that was never ever truly cleared. God bless †

This was a great video. Even people who have never beaten a single level of Mario, it was understandable and relatable. Congratulations to the winners!

The combination of Mario Maker and the Video Essay format might make this the best KZbin video of all time.

Don't think i didn't notice the Emplemon type music throughout the video Great job, still can't believe Team 0% did it!

[@fruit3193]

I'll be honest, I cried when TTH was officially cleared. Yes, it was technically not required by T0%'s rules, but to me, TTH is the *final* clear of Super Mario Maker.

[@Inspirator_AG112]

The precision levels are cool for spectation, but I can only imagine they are intense for playthrough.

[@demzie007]

great video t3rror your quality and production gets better every video dude

[@TheChrisV.]

I Read a couple article titles about this when the final bit was happening and never knew that there was a whole backstory to the journey, amazing.

[@stylis666]

"...a discord bot api." And look at what it helped do! This is why I am learning how to program! Was the api necessary? Absolutely not. People were compiling lists, passing on difficult unclreared levels to their favourite streamers. Everything was fine. What it did was make things easier, and with that it made everything more fun for everyone! And I don't play, I don't have a Wii U, I just watch and enjoy, and even I benefit from that one little api that I have never seen or used. It made it so that more people were attracted to the task who would previously be held back by the effort/challenge to find uncleared levels and. It changed the community interaction from being mostly in the finding of uncleared levels and sharing them, to community interaction in actually playing and clearing the levels and sharing that! And that one little api made a ton of difference without ever being on the foreground. I love that! I want to program things that are just useful for relatively small things that make everyone happier if it's automated. And I want to know the machine language of the C64 so I can just talk to it and make an interactive 3D demo, Brocoli 007 style.

[@Xachpro5475]

4:48 whoa slopes That made be laugh

[@averageultrakillnoob]

me whe i see a mountain for the first time😂😂😂

[@SquirrelMario]

That was a big deal back then lol

[@bekfstman9841]

well, considering every living soul playing SMM1 wanted slopes, yeah. It made me scream, it made the entire community scream. Still loved all the SMM2 announcement trailer as most of the time people would hyperfocus on exactly the slopes

[@epicslapbattlesguy7362]

I will probably be playing the original MARIOKART 8 before the servers shut down. Whilst I didn’t clear any super hard levels I still helped by getting first clears on new uploads when you could still upload.

[@RandomGuy13558]

One of the best completions on gaming history, it's very difficult to balance difficulty on a whole different game though. The part that they had barely any time to complete nearly impossible inhuman obstacle is something that is INHUMAN. It makes it even more cinametic that there was barely any time. Inhumanly difficult stuff can take months to beat, like CoIV in... Roblox. They truly edged the time within this completion. Anyways, GG!
