Super Mario 64 - 120 Star WIP (33 Stars Done)

This is a work-in-progress of my 120 star Tool-Assisted Speedrun, which in the end aims to collect all 120 stars in SM64 in the fastest possible time.

This took me appromixately 3/4 of a year to make. Originally I wasn't planning to release any WIPs, but enough people wanted it that I'm putting this one up. Since so many new strategies and stuff have been found, I'm redoing most of this anyway (with a new WIP every now and then).

Small DISCLAIMER: this is NOT meant to show skill; is it meant to entertain and push the game to its limits. It is played on a modified Nintendo 64 emulator that allows a collection of controller inputs to be modified and canceled until the result is satisfactory.


This movie was played by me (mr_roberts_z).

Huge thanks go to duksandfish and bkDJ for the encoding. Duksandfish encoded this one, but bkDJ deserves just as much credit for other stuff he worked hard on involving this encode.

good choice in terms of a game to do your first vid on. oh and you got jumping down to an art and you obviously know your glitches but do they work on the ds version I wonder?

@PoolDolphin The slide was TASed over 2 and a half years ago, at which time the record for this strategy was a few frames more than 12.5. 12.3 is easy non-TAS (check my channel, I have two different videos), but it requires Mario starting in a special position that costs several seconds to set up. If you've gotten 12.3 without doing that, I'd like to see it.
