What Is The Minimum Amount Of Buttons Needed To Beat Super Mario 64? - เกม
For 7:32, the real-time A button challenge community has found a solution: th-cam.com/video/bdpHlAQFUb0/w-d-xo.html
In general, here's a good database for what has been done by actual Human players: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1EH4jyaLR8ugiayDa25aZN8o1oFQupeYGvM9uYuD3hoc
And here's one for what has been done in TAS: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1lAf4RDjKIbpApFQUrjZe7K2tVtAu0FDY_SgaJkYAvhQ
thanks for sending this
7:56 if you wait long enough mario will release bowser without the need of a button press. same for the other bowser fights, pannen showcased a strat for the final bowser in his video about the B Button Challenge
Oh really? I had no idea this happened. Thanks for the tip
@@Ansel_G no worries, also its awesome that you showcased some of the strats such as pendulum manipulation n such
The moment I heard pannenkoek was involved I knew this was gonna be good
Same
If you're gonna use TAS, you should go full parallel-universe mode and route the game for TRUE lowest-buttons.
I will watch and if Mario isn’t a sign atleast once I will be sad.
I have some bad news
This is actually the first time in my life I heard that you need 2 button presses for bowser. I always used to hold the button and then released it.
11:36 BUT FIRST WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT PARALLEL UNIVERSES
A button press could be saved by grabbing a Mips star simultaneously to jumping to get to HMC by doing a star dance ledge grab. Also, get everything in HMC you plan to get in 1 trip, since you won’t have to jump to get back in.
The 100 coin star in THI could be done with 5 secrets, saving a button press.
In Bowser in the Sky, an above Chuckya can be manipulated to save a button press at the beginning. This strat is used in the ABC.
Thanks for the help here, I actually haven’t heard of a star dance ledge grab before, so I’d be interested in seeing what that looks like.
@@Ansel_G it’s when you collect a star you can ledgegrab things and get instantly upwarped, you can’t save a button press with it entering HMC tho because it takes multiple dives to get Mips into position
BitS chuckya manipulation requires more inputs
@@Ansel_G you should look into the minimum A button challenge, this trick is from there
@@AdaTheWatcher He mentioned consulting Pannenkoek so I assume he's aware of it
7:25 this moment was the first major hurdle for the A-Button Challenge
Immaculate video, love the editing and it’s nice to see that your audience has grown since the Super Mario Galaxy video!
I did an RTA 70 run where I only counted A/B/Z presses because there is a category called RTABZ, I did it in 398 ABZ presses and I’ma look in the vid for some things and edit it here if I find some stuff
Edit: honestly seems like you have done a good amount of research, kinda motivating me to beat my PB
In JRB you can get the star in the ship in 2, one for being able to swim and if you do the framewalking first to collect the star you can press Z and break the box and collect the star with 1 Z press
Also after the first star if you press save and quit it saved 1 menu press from having to exit all the 3 textboxes
Also pretty sure you can framewalk onto the ship for the first time but Idk if you can collect the rest of the coins 0xbutton presses then
And yeah you can save 5 with not throwing bowser
I think that’s all the button presses I can quickly think of watching the vid, cool that you made a vid of it. Might try and beat my score today
YESSSSSSSSS! After seeing your channel I was awaiting for a 3D Mario, and in this case SM64 to be added to this series! AMAZING WORK Nathaniel G.
You put so much time and effort into all of these dude, you deserve way more views and subs
This was SO worth the wait and i see the quality of videos have improved
I feel this number can be at least halved using Pannen Magic
Probably
You can get up the final slope of Bowser in the Dark World by grinding on the side of it with a specific angle to travel upward on it. You can see this in action in ivan178’s video of completing the level in 0 A presses RTA
bomb clip is optimally 3 buttons with a weird strat, you grab the bobomb as it's blowing up (no jump, just time it), 1 for throwing it, and one sideflip for grab. great video btw!
ohh you're so right, I should've done that.
IM SO READY FOR THIS me watching rn
Excellent run & analysis video! Thanks for uploading!
Thanks for enjoying :)
That wall kicks will work star grab by bouncing off the spindrift and flying around the whole damn level was bad to the bone 😂
Im in the SM64 speedrun community for a long time. But the way how you reached certain stars really impressed me. Awesome video
3:21 funny the low poly mario here haha
Your videos are seriously underrated. Here's to hoping this will take off in the algorithm.
I wonder how much the a button challenge influenced the theory crafting in this one
I hope watching this wont ruin the bismuth video series finale for me
Yoooooo this is awesome!!! Crazy challenge
This video was actually insane!
This one was really interesting knowing beforehand that super mario 64 is broken af. Good video as always!
Good video, I'm glad to see someone else trying to beat games with the minimum amount of button presses with the help of TAS because I think that shows effort to try to optimize as much as possible (And maybe it's silly what I'm about to say but doesn't the strat called "right side" in Bowser in the sky save some button presses? I haven't given it much thought, so I'm probably wrong)
i love this series. great work :)
Glad you enjoy it!
This is the first video I've watched on this channel and here's an interesting challenge I got requested as a result:
Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars with No Special Moves.
Never played the game before but I might try that in the remake if it’s difficult/interesting enough. Anyways, you should check out the NSMB2 video. You’d probably like it.
@@Ansel_G Thanks.
I predicted in the community post that there would be over 200
I had no idea that there would be even more than that and 200 was just the menu presses 😂
awesome video!!
If there was 1 less button press in the last part, then the gameplay presses after each Bowser fight is the same as the total presses after the previous one
This channel is curing my anxiety
7:56 ok impatient
I had no idea you could just wait for bowser to let go by himself
I could have sworn you could use the left analogue stick to scroll through any textboxes with a triangle at the end, so you'd only have to press a button at the end. Maybe that was a different N64 game? I distinctly remember wiggling the stick to get through a bunch of text and I'm pretty sure it was Mario 64.
That’s huge if true, I might try this
Thank you pannenkoek for your contributions to the ABC
IVE WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥‼️‼️‼️‼️
hardest video of 2022
banger vid, sm64 is one of my favourite games
12:56 “sumbarine”
Nice video. Im quite sure it can be optimised to be sub 350!
Yo I actually love assist parts of the run and enjoy learning about these cool game quirks
Very underrated video. I will be sharing on discord
Thanks
Ur cracked my guy
there is a lesser known techniche to clip past the chain chomp with a cork box, which oonly requires you to grab and release it and than jump into the star. this would save 2 button presses, as this could replace a star that requires 5.
oh, that is interesting. I thought the corkbox would have the same effect as the bob omb making it go back to 5
You deserve more subs
10:53 Murder
8:16 why is no one talking about the silvagunner rip in the background
You can use hyperspeed shell in BoB to both get on top of the floating island and clip through the chain chomp's gate. This is used in the A Button challenge
th-cam.com/video/nuMlcWkDmMw/w-d-xo.html a video that shows this off for the floating island, with this strat this star could theoretically only take 2 button presses
it also seems like you forgot about tower of the wing cap. That star is an easy 0 button star
@@blockygamez9389 oh, you’re so right, the wing cap star near ttc would’ve been a great star. Shell doesn’t spawn in bob until you complete stars 1, and 2. Which require like 23 text boxes I’m pretty sure
@@Ansel_G ok, makes sense
an a press is an a press. You can't say its only a half
well lucky for you I counted it as a whole press.
a press isn't completed until the button is released, which is how half a presses happen
a lot of button presses can be saved:
examples: grinding can save an 2 presses from the staircase
careful positioned falls to ledge grab (at least one)
grinding for a double jump to save like 2 presses i think on the last bowser stages
the first star in bobomb battlefield can be done in presses due to the fact that you can grind to insta release him
and then kopa the quick would require 1 a press and the box star in bombomb battlefield can be done with 3 presses (2 groundpounds, 1 to get wing cap, 1 to break the box and another one to shoot out of a cannon and i think it can be done with 2 if you can get wing cap without groundpounding) and the clip can be done without pressing a single button, go to the bomb, activate it and make it clip you thru the cage, it is quite hard but it saves 5 presses, also from what i know the quirk box from the beginning can be used to clip thru too, saving 3 presses if you go with that
also grinding is a weird state where mario alterates from being on the ground and being in the air every frame, so you can use it for an instant double jump or just not be effected by the slipperyness of the ground, really important, it is done on the edge
also it is intresting how no pedro spots where used to maybe do some speed thing
a lot of optimizations but it is getting close to TAS levels to do it
think you can also jump on the back and just framewalk the rest of the way and save 1 press
text boxes for BoB 1/2 were the dealbreakers for me.
everything else seems like they would be really good to use and I hope I get to see some sort of full TAS for this challenge at some point.
@@Ansel_G pannen did some stars with only joystick and without button presses
and tassing these things aren't to hard
stroop and mupen are great tools to start with
... "but first we need to talk about alternate universes"
less than 1k likes? criminal. amazing video
There's some parts where I wonder why don't you use the ABC strat and I remember that that would require even more presses.
People do love Mario
Cloning money bags is not condoned by the IRS
shh.. they don't need to know that
Under rated
2 button presses

[comment]
this comment took at least 72 button presses
@@Ansel_G But what if they used stenotype? Then it could have been less! Nice job on the video, btw
You wouldn't happen to have heard of something called the "A Button Challenge" or ABC?
This is slightly different
@@Ansel_G I know. I just thought you might be interested considering the similarity of the challenges (minimizing button presses).
I'm guessing you have heard of it since you had pannen's help with this?
@@victor_creator yeah I have heard of it
i like the editing style. where did you learn how to edit like that? i want to start a TH-cam channel some day but i’m not sure how to edit videos.
watch other people's videos, and try to make it reflect on yourself
y'all should check out bismuths a button challenge history videos if you're interested in sm64 with arbitrary button challenges
You added gameplay button presses for entering Hazy Maze Cave, but you didn't have to.
true, those should be menu presses
10:29 actually it's possible to framewalk up then groundpound, boxes just have a higher hitbox than stars
still would require button presses I'd assume.
@@Ansel_G yeah but it saves one
@@octi4684 good enough for me, thanks
it would be cool if you did kirby super star ultra with the minimum button presses. tip: you can use the circle pad on the 3ds (using backwards compatibillity) to move buttonless.
sounds interesting, I might try it out
8:18 *Excuse me.*
doesn't count, I was explaining something lol
1:22 and sheer amount of a presses.
Noticed around 17:00 that 2 gameplay presses were added for the Dire Dire Dock stars, but you don't need a gameplay press to enter the level. Were those for something else? Not sure if this means there were other instances of this.
only the first star doesn't require an A press to enter iirc, it's definitely possible I made a mistake though
@@Ansel_G Pretty sure you can just walk into the blue shimmer. Yup, I verified it looking at random videos. Took a while to find one, because people tend to jump into it anyways (including my own videos). It reaches the floor. Hazy Maze Cave also wouldn't need a jump to enter cause it is in the floor now that I think about it. Just put in a sub as I've noticed that I've randomly seen a bunch of your videos at this point.
@@TheGreenLightningMRT thanks, but also you need to account for pressing the save button and pressing a button on the star selection screen
Guys wake up ansel g uploaded
I’m surprised that you did that
I feel like a 16 star run of this would be optimal. You could probably cut down like 200 button presses. But I get you were playing on 3D all stars
Blj is also really inconsistent with how many jumps you need to get up stairs
Movement do be minimal tho...
look up Bismiths history of least a button presses
this challenge is slightly different
@@Ansel_G oh I know I just wasn't sure if you'd seen the series and it's really great
8:49 I’m sorry did you use the among us version of this, or am I going insane
It’s stunning how few subscriptions you have considering you’re majority a challenge run channel. Perhaps it would be valuable to do a two player game and collab with a bigger challenge run channel to maximize your visibility without paying for ads
I might try this, thanks for the idea
7:45 shows 70 stars. Was this your clip or pannenkoek's? I'm confused.
My clip, I should’ve said that the star counter was going to be inconsistent
Am I wrong in thinking you could framewalk up the bowser slope?
I tried, but for some reason I kept sliding
It probably can in much less button presses.
i was there
Were you sick when you recorded this? It sounds like you have really bad sinus congestion
I was really sick right after I recorded my audio, so that might just be my normal voice haha
What is it with the gameplay presses after each Bowser level being the same as the total presses after the previous Bowser level?
Never noticed that, very cool.
It's weird how in CCM you can grab every star with like 3 gameplay button presses Edit: Not counting the button presses required to enter the level.
Watch for rolling rocks in 5!?! Why didn't you just hyper speed walk for 48 hours!?
YOU’RE SO RIGHT
i think it is posebil the peguin in ccm is with 0 you can sleid of the hilll in the penguin that you dont need to grap it
I'm pretty sure we do need to grab it
come on, if you’re going to TAS it at least do all 120
I might return to do all 120, not sure though
subbed, Remember me when youre famous
I will come back to this comment again one day
@@Ansel_G W :D
This isn't chaos 64 unnanhupscirnber
now do this with Mario 64 with gun edition
that would be insane haha
How about trying the same with Mario 64 DS, but without the usage of the touch screen.
That would be difficult, the touchscreen would be essential to getting a lower score
Ain’t no way

I liked this one a bit more than your galaxy video, although I notice you still try to point out an issue with what you are doing and then give an excuse, which feels strange because I personally wasn't considering it. In this video the example was "You may think it's strange to do the stages in this order", which I would either be someone who watched SM64 content and not question it, or you could have also just sequenced the video differently. It's a strange thing to bring up, it feels like you are doubting yourself. Tremendous effort though, keep it up, can you do pikmin with the least amount of pikmin throws?
I haven’t actually played a pikmin game yet, I might try that out though
9 DAYS LATE SQUAD WHERE YOU AT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?
Why not frame walk up the stairs in bowser in the dark world?
You can’t frame walk up it
You said Sumbarine
whoops
@@Ansel_G It's ok the rest of the video was fire
Is that pfp tsukinami girl on blue zenith?
Yes.
@@Ansel_G nice
on switch online there is normal version of the game that you can blj
Really? I thought it would be the updated version. Still though, I didn’t want to use bljs since they’re really inconsistent on presses
@@Ansel_G yeah I don’t know why they used different versions on switch. but if you are with a TAS inconsistentency in blj shouldn’t be a problem
@@matheuscabral9618 you’re right.
Why did you do this to yourself. Rip your sanity.
Ain’t no way I was right
Neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerd.
What did you expect from watching a video where I’m supposed to use skill and knowledge lel
