  • FIRST RUN TO EVER BE TIED WITH THE TAS GOING INTO 8-4! I truly cannot put into words how much achieving this time means to me, and it still feels unreal that I actually pulled this off. Lightning 4-2 was the final framerule left to be saved in SMB1 Any%, but thanks to the efforts of @KingOfJonnyBoy, this framerule that was once thought to be impossible has now been implemented in runs, and this is the first WR to ever feature this final framerule save! This run marks the start of a new era, there are no more framerules left to be saved, so this is now a battle of the remaining 8-4 frames! Only 22 frames, or 0.366 seconds, separate this run from absolute perfection. As much as I've stressed how amazing this run is to me, this is not my end goal, and I will not be stopping here! 4:54.5xx/.4xx will most likely be my next goal for whenever I return to this category, and even after that, I plan to take this category as low as possible. Also, I apologize in advance for my crazy popoff after the run was finished, this was simply pure happiness and euphoria coming out all at once!
    As a side note, for those concerned about my heartrate being high, my normal resting heartrate is ~70 BPM average. When I am doing runs and constantly getting some of them far, drinking caffeine, and streaming, it can occasionally linger over 100 BPM. Compared to my normal resting heartrate, this is a whole different thing, and doing speedruns isn't a resting heartrate when nerves can skyrocket at any given time due to the pace. Hopefully this clears up any confusion, I am completely healthy and do not have any heart condition!
    Another frequently asked question is about keyboard / emulator. Emulation for this game is 100% accurate, which means that anything that can be done on an NES is possible on emulator. Keyboard offers no advantage, and it is actually debatably worse for speedrunning this game. I use keyboard over controller for personal preference reasons, I have been playing games on keyboard since a little kid, and I have a very good feel for it compared to controller. For speedrun.com, emulator has been allowed since the beginning of time, and no rules were ever changed just to allow emulator. Another misconception is that some people think I am able to input L+R using a keyboard. It is possible to do so, but since it isn't possible with a standard NES controller without it being broken or modified, inputting this is banned. I have to have an option in my emulator settings that makes L+R input nothing, so no invalid input was done during this run. Hopefully this clears up any confusion, emulator / keyboard is a completely valid and legitimate way of speedrunning this game, and this is a verified run at www.speedrun.com/smb1.

This is because the game was designed to favor the player by having the hitboxes smaller than the sprites. There are also examples in that video where Mario seems to go through Piranha Plants without getting hurt, again because of the smaller hitboxes compared to the sprites.
      EDIT: There's an even better video by Bismuth titled "How is this speedrun possible? Super Mario Bros. World Record Explained" -- It goes over a bunch of the specific details about why certain enemies don't do damage the way you'd expect, again due to hitboxes. It's a video about an older world record, but the information about hitboxes is still relevant here.

      The original commenter meant to say "you could only react like this to a WR this mindblowing", which means that this WR *will* amaze you. It has nothing to do with any other WR. React like it's the end of the world to the former WRs all you want, the guy didn't gatekeep that. At least didn't mean to.

      1. Emulator is identical to the original game and is allowed by the leaderboards as long as No L+R is on
      2. Keyboards are allowed by leaderboards and in fact keyboards are likely worse for speedrunning Mario. Niftski has done some amazing runs on controller despite not typically playing on controller, such as a 4:54.931, which would land him at 4th on the leaderboards (including his current world record).

      You are actually wrong about that... there was a new way to save an extra framerule that was recently discovered, and I was even wondering if anyone was going to make a new TAS with that new framerule applied.
      If someone already have a TAS or source code that is perfect right now, then all they really have to do is edit it to apply that new framerule. This would give the absolute fastest time possible as of today. I don't know if anyone has done it yet though.
      I'll try to find a link to the video that shows the recent new framerule save.

    Such an amazing accomplishment. The work you have put in, both on stream and behind the scenes, is what made it possible, and you deserve everything you have gotten out of it. Super proud of you and can't wait to see where you take it from here.
