Track & Field / Hyper Olympic NES Button Mashing Secret Technique

[@Sethysics]

“I’m not full autoing, that’s not full auto.” “That’s not full auto?” “This is.” 4:15 “That’s full auto.” “Damn bro, OK.”

[@BogartBeats]

Thanks for posting this Hector! This is one of my favorite games. I just tried this and on first attempt it took a full second off my 100 yard dash time.

[@Sonnyblack100]

Wow. 1st long jump over 10 meters. Never seen that in my life

[@Star_cab]

The myriad of button mashing techniques i have seen for this game are fascinating. From "hyper tendon mashing", "finger ripples", "wrist gliding" metal rulers, to pen or penciles seesaw. I'm sure there are more but they are the ones i saw. ppl talk of a track ball ver I never saw it.

[@FlyHec]

I have 2 trackball control panels that I have never installed on my arcade machines. It's too much like using a turbo button. Played them in arcades in the 80s.

[@kernzyp]

jesus man, metal AND drum n bass? me too!! high octane dudes, us!!

[@TheBoxGamePL]

Thanks

[@culwin]

Is this rapid vibration technique useful in other areas?

[@orrvidtester7607]

Here’s a tip from my Jr High self in 1987 - eat microwave butter popcorn and get the grease all over your index finger. Then just skim it back and forth over A and B. You will max out speed every time. My buddies and I used to get garbled scores because our triple jump and long jump would break the game.

[@FlyHec]

You must be remembering it wrong cuz only one button is for running. That and even at max speeds the highest scores will display with no problems.

[@samcahntent]

WELL PLAYED SIR...hahahahaha...and I commend you on the only video (besides mine) where you actually SHOW yourself playing. All these videos tick me off because they don't show the controller or nintendo console. You're a freak like me...I love it! My best 100 meter is 9:28 I believe--a full second slower than yours! Holy cow. I tip my hat to you...

[@funkyflights]

Wait you’re sliding though side to side, not just going up and down ... right ?

[@FlyHec]

My nails are firmly pressed on the controller, set barely wider than the button and I vibrate just enough for each finger to hit in an alternating pattern. But yes, it's more of a small slide and not really a press at all. My nails never come off the controller. But I also never slide completely over the button. Although I do use that full slide on the Gameboy version and on my Hudson Shooting Watch with great success. I've done 350+ on my Shooting Watch in 10 seconds while sliding.

[@funkyflights]

@@FlyHec... Thanks for the tip !! 👍

[@ArjunTheRageGuy]

I hope there's a way to click the mouse (either left or right) faster like this technique.

[@ShadowWizard123]

I tried this and my NES evolved into a PS5

[@mikedisher30]

love that go tee awesome the tech is wicked curious can it be done in arcade

[@Falkite]

He has another technique for arcade machines. Look up Track and Field 8 Finger Technique

[@BarthaxDravtore]

Great video, Hec. :)

[@Hyper_Egret]

Nice man, i always look for some new ways to do a better button mashing.

[@SarsLars]

I used a small paint bucket used for my toy models as a "speed technique" when is was 6 years old. 22 years later i see this on youtube and think: Fck, i wasnt that dumb afterall! :)

[@DustyTripLazyPerson]

All this would do is flip your pieces really fast- agamescout 2021

[@lospunchados]

nice post , crazy speeds man.

[@FamilyCS2]

nice vid man. ima look into beating the pinball high score for nes.

[@bennylevine387]

I used to smoke people in this game on NES by low pro wetting my fingers slightly, then just fingerbang the buttons. I seem to recall clearing 1600 speed, but the technique sometimes wavered.

[@BaconSenpai]

The TAS can't even clear 1600. It's the cap.

[@RealSilGaming]

Ladies fear this technique.

[@mebelike]

Hey, what's the music in bg?

[@mebelike]

can i please get a answer?

[@kaosbboi]

Chariots of fire

[@mebelike]

I mean not the NES music but the bg music

[@mebelike]

At approx. 5 minutes of video time

[@Nelson_Win]

That background is so noisy that we can barely hear him talk.

[@guicarsoler2938]

Cochino

[@petraferencova9004]

track field what nuber?

[@FlyHec]

Nuber? Or Number? This is the first one for the NES. It has events from Arcade Track & Field and Hyper Sports since both were already out in the Arcades

[@andrewg1990]

Tried to duplicate this for another title, but I cant seem to. I'm not sure I understand how exactly it is being pressed twice at each tap

[@FlyHec]

I think it shows it pretty good at 2:41 The key is getting the right spacing between your fingers. Too far and you have to cover more ground. Too close and the second finger might press the button BEFORE the first finger releases it. More than happy to help more if you need it. PM me if needed.

[@ManyPeregrine81]

Hector Fly I actually did this move on my PS3 game of Injustice. There is this scene where to get a trophy I have to do some quick time event and one very annoying button smashing sequence. Very useful video, much better than the video with the Xbox 360 controller guy, about the vibrating finger to the button.

[@lawrencescott2050]

me and Tyler used a drill to those buttons 5 second a 100 meter dash

[@FlyHec]

All talk. Put up or shut up! YES, I challenge the drill. DO IT!

[@burdenernie6050]

I saw someone use an electric toothbrush.

[@andrewg1990]

@snc1386 heh, my best 100 meter is 9.30... :/

[@xhiltonx]

Im stuck on high jump cant master it whats the technique

[@FlyHec]

It's been years since played but I think you need to have enough speed for the height your in and time the jump right and just tap jump. Adjust the angle after you get high enough with the jump button again.

[@NintendoLegendDotCom]

Awesome.

[@iyamwhite3931]

I used my mom's tampon plastic holder

[@guicarsoler2938]

Tienes esa casa sucia flojo

[@FlyHec]

It's my garage 😂

[@Sealutions1]

we used a bic lighter to run over the buttons..

[@dickterpene8697]

we used to put a sock over our hand and slide over the buttons, haha good times

[@lawrencescott2050]

i jumped out of the long jump and it said fail?

[@lawrencescott2050]

we used the drill and a small piece of wood who cares anymore.

[@Kurdyukov87pianist]

Please tell me how to run in this game. I can't to move my hero.

[@FlyHec]

There is 1 run button. Mash!

[@Smoocheeeus]

Even with cheats a time like that isn't possible.

[@ВиталийБорисов-л1д]

Да вы американские друзья с ниндендо вообще загибались zzzii. Вот мы в россии играли с турбо кнопками. Их у нас было 4 [+ _ _ ::] вот так и играли

[@paindawson5665]
