TAS HD: NES Super Mario Bros. 2 'warpless' in 18:29.26 by Aglar & Andrewg

[zappload]

WTF? IMPOSSIBLE !!! did you use cheats or something ? or are this game bugs?

[Hotbagels]

Maximum glitch achieved lol

[spoufy1]

You know.... According to this game... The birdo we all know, is ostro and birdo is the ostriche or how ever u spell it.

[ting280]

the original pokemon

[edpistemic]

Toad was always my favourite :) This is fun.

[DGMRuadeil]

10:22 what was that for? What kind of benefit does doing that give you?

[llproductions2006]

@DGMRuadeil My guess is that Birdo would have shot the egg at the same time anyway if he'd gone in earlier, so he wasted as much time as possible for the lulz.

[DGMRuadeil]

@llproductions2006 hm no at 10:22 he's as luigi moving up and down the ladder like 3 times in a weird way

[llproductions2006]

@DGMRuadeil I know that; Birdo shoots eggs every 256 frames regardless of when he opens the door, so he probably just had a lot of time to waste where being faster wouldn't have made any difference.

[andrewg1990]

@llproductions2006 We actually did this so that birdo was in the most optimal position when shooting the egg (furthest rightward). :)

[DGMRuadeil]

0:38 i didn't know that one! I wonder if i can pull that off without TAS. Is that at all possible does anyone know? Or would it require too much precize timing

[poshko41]

Amazing! Needs an hqx filter though.

[drkraid]

6:08 We have to go now. Our planet needs us.

[Charmolution]

@drkraid

The enemies were killed on their way back to their home planet.

[0BostonGeorge0]

All I can say is, No Bonus!

[GoldDragonPrincess]

7:58 "OPEN UP ALREADY!!!" XD

[SmokyMorning]

wow, you beat fryguy VERY quickly

[EagerSleeper]

You rerecorded 26553 times? HOLY FUCK

[slaxor]

Quit breaking the game, Toad! GAWD!

[sheepskin47]

20 Hours of my childhood.... in 20 minutes.

[fullgamerzone]

What's the point of a nes game in HD ? Btw, great run dude !

[skrizhali]

@fullgamerzone We invented this for youtube specially, cuz it kills the quality when the resolution is low. original NES resolution hits YT's lowest resolution & sucks in quality, though you may download our encodes from archive.org & see non-killed vid. abut with HD encoding you can see just the same picture as on your emulator regarging to clearness.

[fullgamerzone]

@skrizhali Okay, thanks for the explanation ^^

[gaffelnskje]

@fullgamerzone so the damn kids that play games to day actually can look at the screen withput going " that sucks" ;P

[LightningLord2]

10:20 It's freakin' Luigi!

[alejandro1000o]

Poor princess... she´s not very useful ;(

[HiDefTutorials]

Woah, how did you get this in HD quality, also what is the resolution of the Original setting is it 4K resolution maybe something like 2560 x 1600, also what is the aspect ratio of the video resolution of the Original setting and how big was the filesize when you uploaded to YouTube?

[skrizhali]

@HiDefTutorials See this page on HD encoding for emulator movies:

tasvideos. org /EncodingGuide/HighDefinition.­html (remove spaces)

[HiDefTutorials]

@skrizhali Thanks at first I had no idea this was tool-assisted I saw an old video once here on YouTube about R-Type for the arcade being tool assisted but I didn't really knew it's benefits until now.....

[sumaru101]

@HiDefTutorials Of coarse the only reason toad is actually cool, is because it was a dream

[Kazooker]

Is it still really warpless when you run through the layers of reality itself, screaming with wild abandon?

[artman40]

@Kazooker I don't know. Ask Ash, Chrono crew or Mega Man.

[fnatsy]

TAS = toad assisted speedrun

[TheGameMaster2002]

@fnatsy no tool assisted speed run

[themettking]

Oh my god...someone actually willingly used Toad.

[SiriusPP]

i never understood this game really xd

[fieryinvective]

Oh god, I nearly pissed myself laughing at the 'elevator'.

I fucking love watching the games of my childhood get abused like this.

[Zarode]

Holy shit.

[flussence]

Well, this explains where Mario Kart 64 got its AI. Wall-hacking CPU bastards.

[skrizhali]

@flussence WUT?!

[MaximilianoDent]

6:09 : OMG

[artman40]

@MaximilianoDent Happens to me every day.

[underthepale]

Probably the best SMB2 run ever published: So much walking through walls, you'd think you were watching a Megaman speedrun.

[artman40]

I like the glitching done here!

[marcolaranja]

Hey the dislike on this video are just like Princess Peach presence on this game... ZERO!!!!

[seriousbusiness47]

I'm not used to hearing this song without EUEUEUEUEUEUEEUEUEUEUEUEU or UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH with it.

[JovMX]

Rape.

[xpghosted]

8:00 o_o

[skrizhali]

For all questions, please see Submission Text & Forum Discussion, linked above.

You even may ask the authors about anything.

[LordVucious]

The fact that Mario got even ONE, count them: ONE use alone make the "Toad Variety Hour (feat. Luigi)" all the more humorous. Overall, pretty cool TAS.

[GarroXZ]

Ostro is the old name it was given on SMBUSA for SNES (I think on Doki doki panic its called Ostro too), then on the All-Star it was changed to Birdo.

[GarroXZ]

@GarroXZ Err I mean SMBUSA for NES*

[trident042]

@GarroXZ It was actually something NOA changed and put into the SMB2 manual originally - it's been so long since I've beaten SMB2 that I forgot that it was 'wrong' in the credits. They thought switching the two names made far more sense, since the other one was an Ostro...ich.

[SirApocalypse]

How do people like watching these boring fucking things?

[molitva2007]

it was amazing! and funny to watch!!! just one question: what is luigi doing in 10:19?

[shingraywords]

@molitva2007 Seems like goofing around while waiting for Birdo's timer to fire the egg, but I could be wrong.

[NorthBus]

Wait a minute... the credits say that bird-guy is named "Ostro"? What is the source of the "Birdo" name that you and I and every other SMB2 fan has been using for the past 23 years?

[NorthBus]

Super Mario Brothers 2: Toad's Adventure.

Man, I wonder how much Mario and the Princess got paid to sit around sipping martinis this whole time.

That said, I was impressed by the Mario-improvement on 3-3. Quite unexpected. Why did it work out that way?

[ZhiverZ]

Awesome
