[NES] Super Mario Bros. 8-1 hard jump without coin.

As TanukiTeabag said, there's a hole which is hard to jump over without taking at last a coin. So... here's a way to do it by jumping onto a goomba. It may not suit yourself if you're going for a no-killing Low score run.

(as a reminder, coin = 200 points, goomba = 100 points)

Oh and btw, It isn't recorded on my usual config, so I'm playing really bad. :p

im not trollin' or anything, BUT....what would be the point of this, wouldn't gettin' the coins be a good thing?

[Meja69]

@youngsplash85 Well, some people are interested in completing the game with the lowest score possible (or by taking the lowest amount of coin) and a coin is worth 200 points while a goomba is worth only 100 points. So taking this coin isn't optimal.

Must we imitate every little foreplay move you make for this to work? to be able push the picture right so thei will start go..? when i stood in the absolute end part of the hole, only when i was in the air to jump to marios death i saw the goomba started to move against me

not like this example exactley :)

I need Help

I made crappy moves at the beginning because I sucked. ^^

You have to jump a little to the right (over the hole) to trigger the goombas (the screen moves to the right) and fall back on the left edge of the hole.

(watch it at 36-38 secondes)

Great. So now we know the lowest possible score is 100 less than the other runs for the lowest score.

Who says we must always play for the highest score? Clearing the game with the lowest takes as much skills and thinking!

Nice video! I guess I'll be redoing my run with this technique. Thanks!

[ff2paladin]

awesome!

Now show me how to the the jump in 8-2.... you know which ones I'm talking about...

[RatmanXX]

@polocatfan276 There's actually a glitch (a bug) in Super Mario Bros to wall jump.

See watch?v=5XuV7LaqHlk for example.

@LightBlueYoshi thats in nsmb...

[xValis77x]

lol nice one

Why did the goomba freeze in midair when it was squished? In mine, the squished goomba still falls.

I really want to see that low-score TAS with this jump incorporated into it. 600 point 'speed'run would be awesome.
