Threed early full attempt unedited.wmv

This is how painful it can be to get all three of these in one go. I'm not having a good day with it, though, because normally I can get through the first two walls either without using skip sandwiches at all or one on each. I don't know why I kept having trouble, other than maybe the occasional lag I was experiencing while recording. I love how when you get right on it the wall can push you back if you screw up. That seems to happen a lot. If I ever attempt a speedrun of this game that includes this glitch, I'll have to master the walk through stairs glitch as well, which I can't get a good recording of because of massive lag in the graveyard when I do so.

The easiest way to set this up and do it just about every time (for the first two) is, just wiggle until you're either part-way in, or at least in the wall. By that point you should be able to get through very easily with a skip sandwich use. The third wall took me a little while, but again this wasn't the best day for me. I've gotten through the third wall twice on just one skip sandwich each time.

Like the video says, this is unedited. I also did not use slowdown (and the save state is just so the video isn't much longer), as I wanted to show this in a way that other people could learn that have never seen this glitch before.

One thing I would like to add. I figured out not too long ago before I speedran this live at AGDQ 2012 that once you are in the middle of the wall, if you do not have anymore speed from the skip sandwich, as long as you continue to wiggle very quickly, you can still make it through the wall. It's just that a skip sandwich is pretty much essential for getting in the wall initially.

Can you please help me with this? I've been trying to glitch that third wall for so long, but I've never been able to get it. I can almost always get through the first two without any skip sandwiches, but I can't seem to get the third one. Do you have any tips for getting through it (or maybe a more in-depth explanation of it)?

@piepusher11 Let me know if you need more help later. I'll try to get another video up at some point, it's just harder to showcase this on an emulator as opposed to the console, where I'm more comfortable, lol.

@hugegamefan86 I actually figured it out, a couple minutes after posting that. I think I had been trying to do it from the side, but now I find that it's much, much easier to glitch that third wall from the bottom, not the side. I think can do it pretty consistently with only 2 or 3 skip sandwiches now (maybe 4, if I'm unlucky).

@piepusher11 Awesome! Yeah, with practice it gets much easier but, it is still the hardest wall by far. Also, sorry for the late response. At least you figured it out. I guess at least my replies can help anybody else that happens to stumble upon this video.

@piepusher11 Oh yea, after watching the video again, you should wiggle only right, since after getting stuck in the middle of the wall, you will come out if you wiggle left (lots of experience with doing that, sadly...). My instructions below are only for getting in the wall initially.

[hugegamefan86]

@piepusher11 I get stuck in the bottom of that wall because, it's along there you have to at least get into. You know you did it correctly when you can turn Ness to the right and he will not move down the wall at all. Once you are stuck in there you just have to continue wiggling from left to right (not going too far left or you'll come out). Obviously, like the others, you have to go very quickly, or you have no chance of making it through the space.

@piepusher11 It is actually very hard to explain how to pull it off since finding the angle is a pain. This is a very early video, so I might make another one at some point with commentary but, I'll try my best. You see what I stand on the wall in the video? You basically have to wiggle up and to the right as best as you can. I do wiggle back and forth, but make sure you go more up and right than left, or you'll end up going into the tree and miss it.

I'm lot better at it now than when this video was posted. It is so much easier to get up there, now.

Nice! I might try this for my next playthrough.
