I owe like 4/5 of my channel views to this game LMFAO But seriously this game was a huge nostalgic hit for me, still holds up as one of my favorite handheld games as all time, so unique and expressive for a 2D mario, M64 had some competition for its movement tools!! Great to see this up.
This is like the most underrated mario game. Mario vs Donkey Kong was alright but it didn't nearly match the puzzle creativity and flexibility that this game had
Watching this reminds me of how some people say video games are for children. Little do they know that games like this are a test of patience, problem solving, will-power, and learning physics in the game (this game is no acception to how many head injuries occurred). So yes, it was for children who were in for a long adventure. And when you think about it (and someone in the comments mentioned it) this game has close if not 100 levels for a tiny game boy game. It may not have revolutionized gaming, but it was a wonderful buffet of what makes an excellent platformer.
I’m currently stuck on 7-1 😅 but yeah for an Original Game boy game, you could sink a lot of hours into this game. This is by far the best Donkey Kong game.
Wow, I'm having a bad week so far so I decided to check another TAS on this channel, and even though I've noticed it existed, I always thought this wasn't going to be an impressive run. But daaamn, how wrong was I? I knew Mario would do some crazy acrobatics, but some of these levels are just insanely well done. Very tight jumping which caused for a very speedy progress. Never thought you could abuse the game mechanics this much on a old classic gameboy game. At this point, I would even say the amount of cutscenes prolly takes up more time than the run itself. But seeing those cutscenes again, watching mario breeze through the harder levels, combined with a lot of big brain moments... it was a pretty wild trip through nostalgia line and you made my evening a bit better :D Thanks for making this TAS
you guys realize that this game counts Lorewise before the Super Mario Games? in the end Mario first gets a Super Mushroom, there is a pipe with a few ?-blocks (probably how he got into the mushroom kingdom) and he befriends the Kong Family. maybe Pauline goes back into the big City (which is sometime in the future re-named to "New-Donk City") and gets Mayor
KJ I remember having a breakdown during the last stages. So much my mom has to take my game boy away so I could gather myself for a couple days. That was over 20 years ago. I still have the cart and game boy but I shudder every time i see it. Watching this TAS blow through it gives me a little comfort haha
Because this was released around the same time as Donkey Kong Country. Besides, Mario vs Donkey Kong was originally going to be an enhanced port of this game.
It sure was. The reason why it's labeled as GBC here is that's the mode that the emulator was using, and the reason for that is given in the notes accessible from the page linked to up in the description.
Okay, grabbing the key in mid air is sick and very hard to actually pull off (i only remember doing it accidentaly) but walljumping? That's just new, how does that happen?
The same way unintended walljumping happens in other games, really; hitting the wall at specific points causes the game to very, VERY briefly think the player is standing on a floor, and at THAT exact moment, jumping is possible.
I loved this game so damn hard. It came out when I was in middle school and I recall it being the reason I got yelled at for staying up late on school nights. I just had to figure out those level puzzles.
Mario does triple jump, backflip and wall jump techniques in Super Mario 64 style, before Super Mario 64 even existed back then. Also Donkey Kong after 2-5 seconds: "WTF??"
One of my Fav Games on GB. In the Future will be a colored Rom for GBC and Emulators. Maybe 2024...hopefully not later ;-) Then i will try some of that amazing tricks of level solving, witch are mind blowing.
I tried MvsDK recently and the physics are nowhere near as smooth as the original. For example, in MvsDK, you can't turn-around flip onto a vine. Pretty sure you can in the original.
He waits in 38:13 because he is too fast for the 7-12 OoB boss skip that requires a maximum total timer of 547 for the sum (7-9 time)+(7-10 time)+(7-11 time) ^^

This feels like a creepy fever dream with how fast Mario catches up to DK despite all of his his attempts to lose him.
This is like the most underrated mario game. Mario vs Donkey Kong was alright but it didn't nearly match the puzzle creativity and flexibility that this game had
Plus you had more to do in each stage after getting through the key door.
It's really too bad the Mini Marios overtook the series

It's a me. Mario
Well, is cranky actually
Important detail: The Giant DK face on the tower map screen changes going into the final boss fight.
I never noticed that.
They expanded Donkey Kong stages by a ton too
Super Mario Odyssey port on the GB looks great
This game is technically the prequel to Odyssey.

I, too, enjoy cartoons based on TASes. 👍
18:49 love this lol, no way they intended the game to be played like this
Always loved the closer you get to the final world, you begin to see it in the distance slowly coming into view
This game on gbc was really difficult back in the day. It also is a long game for its platform.

When you hear the theme for Iceberg, the game stops being nice.
Yeah it was, but my brother and I persevered and beat the game because we stocked up on a bunch of extra lives.
JUST discovered this gem was available on VC. Get it before it’s gone at the end of the month!
Wow stage 1-2 already blew my mind. The wall jump the key toss flip into key regrab. Whooooaaaaaaaa
39:09 Donkey Kong be like:
"Fuck this shit, I'm out"
No idea honestly why he waited a little bit at 23:58 before finishing boss fight o.0 Then that stage at 38:15 .And dam, this TAS is cool to watch.
RNG manipulation.
@@QuintaFeira12 it’s actually because the tas was too fast for the 7-12 skip, it requires a maximum of 547 for the first 3 levels to work

I love the movement in this game!

I like how the original donkey kong had to be run on this giant arcade machine now, a shoe could probably run this game.
The only game when Donkey Kong falls down while he's pissed.
Backflip, why did they put it in the original port?
WHAT THE HELL?!! This playthrough is major witchcraft! I don't think I can manage to pull off tricks like that when I play the game.
Those moves are awesome
