Honestly, I appreciate it so much when things go wrong in a run during marathons and the runners just go with it instead of being like "uhhh what is happening". Good runner, good couch, fun watch!
And honestly, the result is great. The time would net him a Top 10 in this category, and beat every single one of the couch members. That's talent! He is so good at the game that most people who attempted this game can't beat a marathon run of him with bad RNG.
The skips are cool but dang when he's racing "normally" is the most impressive. I'd say next gdq should have two of these top runners competing in two-player mode
I like the normal runs better. The bug using shortcuts aren't very interesting to watch although I respect the effort and understand why people like it.
Also the last couple of vod sets have been much better edited to where there isn't 10 minutes of dead air. Nice job by whoever is responsible for these vods
I wonder if dragging the banana reduces lag because it doesn't do the animation for the exhaust, which is probably harder to render than the static banana animation.
23:15 for your answer at least for the point screen! So I’m assuming they have to know if it reduces lag while driving, which my guess is no since he drops bananas a lot during this run!
A banana is a static image, it covers a moving image which needs to update with the frame rate, so that could be why it reduces lag, but still strange concept!
Does anybody else still use the turbo drifting technique from this game in every single Mario Kart released afterwards? I only recently learned that I don't have to mash the control stick back and fourth for power sliding in Mario Kart Deluxe. :(
The first Mario Kart where you don't have to mash your stick to drift was Mario Wart Wii, I guess they made that decision because Nintendo wanted a more accessible game, or probably because they knew about the snaking technique from Mario Kart DS.
electromagneticlemon it's iQue, the Chinese version of the N64 and it's how Nintendo released the N64 in China getting around the then game console ban
Before even watching, I see Abney's name and I know destruction is abound. *When are ya gonna hit another trip weathertenko on Choco Mountain by the way?*
Nice to see a Mario Kart speed run where there are actual skips and tricks being performed instead of somebody just playing Mario Kart like the past few years
19:42 No this is not a millisecond it is 10 milliseconds! I believe a lot of people don't actually know what millisecond means, for them it's just something smaller than a second...Nevertheless, very consistent runner :)
Well, yeah, his name is Koopa in Japanese. The Koopa Troop is just named the Kame-ichizoku, or Turtle Tribe, in the original Japanese, with Koopa Troopas themselves being name Nokonoko. The English translation of SMB1 changed all this for whatever reason - likely because Bowser sounds a lot more threatening than Koopa, and naming his army of Koopa Troopas the Koopa Troop is a lot slicker than just trying to use their original names in English - and it's just stuck forever.
damn even in this 20+ year old game there's rubberband. I really wish there was a way to turn it off (at least in for fun races) just so there would be more Competition between the AI in each race. It's always the same 2 on top and the same 2-4 on the last few ranks, at least in the Mario Karts I've played. I generally dislike Rubberband and I understand why it's a thing but that doesn't Change my opinion about it. lol.

thx SummoningSalt, for showing us Abney
Yes I love SummoningSalts videos. He’s the one who got me interested in speed running. Even if it’s a game I don’t know he makes it interesting!

Abney won a 4 player mode tournament I think
Abney vs MR, no skips, that would make my day
@Boco Corwin the cups can only be played by two players
I like the normal runs better. The bug using shortcuts aren't very interesting to watch although I respect the effort and understand why people like it.
I second this!
Holy shit the vid started with the run it’s a miracle!!!
Since the last GDQ the runs usually start in the first 20 seconds of the video
you guys are doing a much better job of giving details of who is doing what, and summaries of timestamps that are useful. Well done
Also the last couple of vod sets have been much better edited to where there isn't 10 minutes of dead air. Nice job by whoever is responsible for these vods
But did he do 3 weathertankos on choco mountain
He did in time trials back in 2017.
Watch Summoning Salt' video on it if you haven't already!! I was rewatching it just moments ago and saw this GDQ in the recommended list underneath.
I wonder if dragging the banana reduces lag because it doesn't do the animation for the exhaust, which is probably harder to render than the static banana animation.
Dan Cicala interesting point
Thats... actually an interesting question
Dan Cicala This is a brilliant thing to search for.
I, too, would like to know.
23:15 for your answer at least for the point screen! So I’m assuming they have to know if it reduces lag while driving, which my guess is no since he drops bananas a lot during this run!
This is my favorite Mario Kart game. The physics are just awesome.
Bad RNG: The Speedrun
Pretty much.
DON'T YOU DIS-RA-SPEKT RNGESUS!!..... >:(
he didnt pray to RNGesus
bad rng: getting legendaries in pvzgw2 but legendary hats and from wonderful, no super rare, cuz i got that rng
Amazing run. Always great to see all the shortcuts and tricks. Nice commentary. Keep on going👍
Time ends when I cross the finish line... time stopper you had one job lol
The couch team really made this awesome, the runner was great!
A banana is a static image, it covers a moving image which needs to update with the frame rate, so that could be why it reduces lag, but still strange concept!
:D So happy to see Abney on GDQ :3
I actually gain respect for the runners when things go wrong as it shows just how hard it can be to execute and how luck plays a role.
I remember when this first came out I finished this in like an hour and I thought I was the best player ever.
Does anybody else still use the turbo drifting technique from this game in every single Mario Kart released afterwards? I only recently learned that I don't have to mash the control stick back and fourth for power sliding in Mario Kart Deluxe. :(
CinnamonGentlemen What turbo drifting, like 45 degree drifting? I wiggle the stick back and forth
The first Mario Kart where you don't have to mash your stick to drift was Mario Wart Wii, I guess they made that decision because Nintendo wanted a more accessible game, or probably because they knew about the snaking technique from Mario Kart DS.
Wait what? You don't have to go back and forth? Is the turbo based on distance slid?
CinnamonGentlemen Lol. Same here.
Have you ever seen a speedrun of Double Dash? You'll hear the controller from a mile away.
2 legends in one agdq run! This is amazing (I'm talking Abney and Weatherton).
Thought the same!
Abney and weatherton this two legends in one session still in 2019. This is entertainment!
Damn, the legend himself. Cool!
this is the first time i watch Mario Kart 64 speedrun and i have to say it's awesome!
23:13 I wonder if they lower the quality of the model if it's a certain distance from the camera. Like they did with Mario's model in Mario 64.
8:18 “in china they call it the IQ cup”
“of course!”
...lmao
electromagneticlemon it's iQue, the Chinese version of the N64 and it's how Nintendo released the N64 in China getting around the then game console ban
Always nice to see the god of Mario Kart 64 in action.
That was an amazing run! Hopefully we get to see Dragonball Kart 64 runs too!!
Before even watching, I see Abney's name and I know destruction is abound.
*When are ya gonna hit another trip weathertenko on Choco Mountain by the way?*
35:07 is that CarlSagan42 making a cameo apperance here?
Is it weird that Banshee Boardwalk is one of my favorite Mario Kart courses? Both the original & the MKDS remake.
Nice to see a Mario Kart speed run where there are actual skips and tricks being performed instead of somebody just playing Mario Kart like the past few years
8:43 Favourite Mario character named "La Key Two"
Yeah congrats on the sub 30 minute run and I'll see you in VA this summer. And yes you too Weatherton.
I'm more of an MK Wii person myself, but great to see a speedrun of this!!
Holy jesus the cpus are relentless. They're still keeping up with him
who's this hattok guy? is he a professional speedrunner?
When its zoomed out wouldnt it perform better due to smaller renders of objects? thats all i could think of
I'm watching this in 2019 and my Nintendo 64 still works
Abneys a legend
When he crossed the finish line on rr the time didnt stop until 1 second later so the time is technically 29:14
I don't have nostalgia goggles, but I was born in 1991, and Mario Kart 64 is one of my fave Mario Kart games, next to Mario Kart 7..... :D
Same-birth-year-high-five! xD I still play MK64 with my mom pretty often ♥
MK64,MK7,and MKDS are all my favorites!
Imagine if this agdq they have done a race between 4 speedrunners on this game? that would be awesome
Its crazy. Because just a couple months ago I also hopped on the second jump at Wario Raceway. I had the exact same reaction. lol
*before watching the run* I see abney is there, maybe a legendary Choco mountain time is in store?
Edit: oh he didn't make it damn
29:37 Ness loves speedruns apparently
Gotta watch an Abney GDQ run
I didn’t know 200 cc was originally in Mario Kart 64.
Loved it
This a japanese cartridge? Why is there still so much english?
Mostly romaji letters and English. For example, the cups are written in romaji, like Kinoko Cup being the Mushroom Cup.
Awesome!
This was dope!
hey, give the dude the trophy at the end, camera man. he deserves something for the run.
Quick question:why does speesruners always use yoshi,but not other characters?
Awesome
9:41 Perfect Cleveland laugh.
LUHKEETOO??
RIGHT?!?
all I can hear driving me nuts
That's closer to how the Japanese syllables are pronounced. Ki like Keep, not like Kick!
rise up gamesters
why does the japanese version have some english text?
tfw you want to stay up late and watch gdq but it's midterms week
Commander Keen in the audience. Awesome.
lmao "always DK" - just came here from Summoning Salt's vid and he there was a clip of him getting rammed there too
29:53 random item box
they should do a same-console 4 player race
Wow I love this’
Imagine being one of the npc racers and seeing that damn Yoshi breaking everything. Must be so infuriating lol
He's far above other runers
*I lost the run to RNG, dude!*
Bad RNG rules
28:53 poor Peach :D
19:42 No this is not a millisecond it is 10 milliseconds! I believe a lot of people don't actually know what millisecond means, for them it's just something smaller than a second...Nevertheless, very consistent runner :)
26:54 WOW these times are crazy consistent!
I thought the same thing; "centisecond" (hundredths of a second) is the term they're looking for.
I came here with the intention of expressing a similar sentiment.
Damn that RNG on the final itembox was brutal
"La-keet-uu-".
@@j_0anna correct; Ki is pronounced with a long i like Keep, not short i like Kick.
@@secretname3897 nope
20:00 funny that Bowser's castle is Koopa castle in Japanese
Think he is called King Koopa in Japanse
Well, yeah, his name is Koopa in Japanese. The Koopa Troop is just named the Kame-ichizoku, or Turtle Tribe, in the original Japanese, with Koopa Troopas themselves being name Nokonoko. The English translation of SMB1 changed all this for whatever reason - likely because Bowser sounds a lot more threatening than Koopa, and naming his army of Koopa Troopas the Koopa Troop is a lot slicker than just trying to use their original names in English - and it's just stuck forever.
Yoshi Commits Racing Fraud
i want hat guys @
On the moomoo track the CPU did 1:14, unbelivable! are they cheating?
Nope, Rubber band effect
I fucking knew Yoshi was the best.
Every video in my recommended list from the last video i was watching was from GDQ, even though that video had nothing to do with speed running.
*29:14
Here i am.
How to speedrun mk64
Step1: be abney317
Why did he reset
The victory ceremony takes ages
He resets when a cup is over.
Jesus Christ, 150cc in this game looks like 200cc.
Lets go
Why these guys only play japanese?
This cartridge allows the glitches showcased
Mario kart DS speedrun
Yoshi, pay your taxes.
Niceee

Save the Animals
LA-KEY-TU Can I hear that again?
That's how it's pronounced in Japanese
#FreeMarty
One of the guys on the couch sounds like brock lesnar
CPU cant use shells?.....wow
Mario kart 64 150cc is low key faster than Mario kart 8 deluxe 200cc
gg
Im FASTER on EVERY TRACK. Good to see old skool Mario kart being played.
What an unlucky run
BOING EEEEEEEEEEEEE
Lack EYE Too
oh yeah n64
