The hitbox for the goal tape is a lot larger than it seems, so you can just breeze past it and it will still count, this is also how Glitch Goals occur, you just barely hit the goal tape without breaking it and it counts.
I'd still like to see someone finish that the way it's intended, because I did the same thing on all my playthroughs, and I've still no idea how it's meant to be done.
@@Torthrodhel I believe there's a combination or two of switches that can be pressed to open the goal. When I was a kid I had it pretty well memorized but it's got a bad level design.
Discounting the repeated usage of Blur Bridge (3 times), Hard Hitter (2 times) and AV Logo (3 times), there are still 304 unique stages in the game (294 stages in Ultimate and the 10 SMB2 World 10 stages)
The physics here are REALLY weird. Aiai can't transfer movement energy to the platforms, because those don't move out of anything other than their own volition, but the platforms can transfer energy to him, and make him move. This is why he can go flying during some stages, like Advanced 2, where he uses the energy he gets from falling an albeit small distance, and the brief moment he's touching something that could be considered a ramp for the purposes of physics to leap over all the bumpers. A really good example of this is Advanced 11. Since the energy has to go somewhere, he keeps it, and it sends him in the easiest direction for him to go... upward.
For reference, I said that to promote physics discussion, not to claim the game's bad. It's a niche game, but it has its audience, speedrunners, and the decisions that went into its design were obviously the right ones for appealing to said audience.
If a force is infinite and unstoppable then it can exert as much energy as it wants onto anything it touches, without having to deal with any sort of inertia
@@hist150project5 Just increase the sensitivty in your settings. Then it will play a lot better. I like the inclusion of the different modes, unlockables and achievements. Party Games and the cutscenes could've used work, though...and where's the Credits mini game?
@@lightningmanectric3096 They also removed modes. For example, multiplayer in Challenge Mode has been removed, lives are removed with no option to play with them, and of course party games are butchered. There's also the physics changes but that is subjective.
I'm sorry, but even though Banana Mania will probably have every single one of these levels, this game will always be the best because of physics. Also this is the perfect reference to get yourself hyped

omg. I can understand a platformer speedrun, or one for just about any other game, but Super Monkey Ball requires skill in every single stage. This is insane. Also, how did you get rid of the load times? I couldn't stand playing the PS2 version because it kept loading between levels.
monkey ball 1: 50 stages plus 20 bonus stages for perfect on expert monkey ball 2: 50 stages plus 30 bonus stages for perfect on expert monkey ball deluxe: 210 stages plus 90 bonus stages for perfect on ultimate ...boy, that escalated quickly
I really want deluxe :( I like how some stages are in new worlds now like downhill hard is in the night club u shud be able in practice mode to make it any background u want
First of all, what in the devil's name. HOW DID YOU BET ALL THAT? Just looking at it, I was holding my breathe, thinking you were going to fall, then turn out, you made it!
I kinda wish more games with challenging levels like Celeste would have a challenge mode put together like this, With a lives system and everything, I always loved the feeling of getting several lives and going through a marathon of levels like this.
0:22 That level is easier than easy. I mean come on, falling there is so impossible that it makes this stage so boring. No wonder it's absent in Story Mode.
Because of you and geoff, I now have this game on a PS2 emulator. I managed to learn a few tricks here (Dungeon clip, Tub Skip, etc. but theyre mostly from beginner to advanced because lets face it im not that good at expert even though i DID beat story mode with a score of over a million)
It's called Pause Buffering. It can be used for a lot of different things like creating stabilisation on thin parts of the track to reduce the chances of falling off, performing frame perfect inputs, and getting early cycles on stages with moving elements to allow for a better time.
What is this less enjoyable part you speak of? The only less enjoyable part I see is the lag at the beginning of the stage, which doesn't make it any less fun.
+Mitjitsu the last levels are from the gamecube version(they are easyer for example the level stairs is easy but hard if you havent played the other games)

OH MY GOD, HOW DID YOU NOT LOSE YOUR MIND GOING THROUGH 300 LEVELS STRAIGHT?!
Lieutenant Elhaym Van Houten is right not 210 levels 300 levels
marc antoine gagne
The other 90 are only accessible if you play really well.
So yeah.
Kinda late, but all the original Monkey Balls have lied about their total level counts. Even the arcade ‘prototype’.
Weeb
Epic Boomshine there’s actually 300 stages in this
Just hearing the music brings back so many great memories!!!
Yea
And that iconic announcer
It’s more than smbbm

It's only one stage though.

Why are you playing this game in stretch mode instead of actual widescreen?
in *what?!*
Wow. this looks MUCH better than the PS2 version.
that explains why the Xbox version is more expensive than the PS2 version
This game was a massive part of my childhood. I miss it.
Oh, so you can just fuckin' do that with Switch Inferno?...
Alright, then.
You finished without using a continue! Nice Work :)

It's a joke. ;)
Well, even if he didn't play Ultimate 226, it still wouldn't be a No Warp run.
+TheAllBlackMan As a hater of puns, even I have to admit that was well played. Got it immediately.
It is. It's just the name of the stage.
warp is that one level that has killed me over and over
fadedthunder369 you warped? XD
fadedthunder369 I don’t blame you. The slope physics on that level never made any sense to me, and I would always die on the last part.
I remember that was the bane of my existence in my second completed story playthrough.
World 8 is HARD
Can you really call it 300 levels when a bunch of EX stages are reused multiple times? Ones like Blur Bridge, Hard Hitter, and AV Logo.
Discounting the repeated usage of Blur Bridge (3 times), Hard Hitter (2 times) and AV Logo (3 times), there are still 304 unique stages in the game (294 stages in Ultimate and the 10 SMB2 World 10 stages)

hey guess what... it is just a game
Platforms float in blank space with nothing holding them up. Of course the physics are weird.

I miss the space colony from SMB1, it was one of my faves. I love Arctic, Space Colony and Underwatee
Eric C yea but arctic is ruined
It would've been cool if there was a hidden goal inBead Screen, Bouy, Coil Ramp, & various stages you could put one
And simple

This is the game I point people to when they say games are not art. This game just oozes personality.
Games aren't art, no. Also saying a game has "personality" could mean anything, and so it means nothing.
@@pumpkin6429 your opinion on modern art?
Best game of the franchise
Imagine if Edmund Mcmillen "Recreated" super monkey ball, it would definetly be alot harder and have way too much bonus features to it 😂
Imagine if panga made super monkey ball

I have no words.

Wow.. it's really cool and crazy RTA I've ever seen. Isn't it a TAS !? Anyway thanks four your upload!!
+Takahimo Yoshizawa This was not a TAS, this run was done live on Twitch. And thanks I'm glad you liked it!
here's a tip. you cannot TAS ps2 or Xbox games, therefore making this unable to be TAS runned.
Wtf are some of these comments lmao
Domes is so random and suck level My time by domes is 51:50 ..... but luck ^^
How the fuck did you do sliced cheese I just finally finished master extra today But I lost my first continue there😖
This was good training for supermeatboy
Two words “fuck catwalk”
Booooo. The GameCube stage is much tougher than Destiny!
Why do you pause loads of times when playing? And lol holy shit while watching.
Probably so he can maintain his balance better. That's my guess

So much nostalgia

Green Goals
Red Goals

usted es diabólico jajaja
I wish they could of kept the extra stage music from the sapce world from smb1
This, I use to hate this. Every time I'd play this and I get bumped off or accidentally fall off, I'd throw the remote and turn off the game LOL
40:52 look it look like bubble wrap and also it's 1 of the hardest stages
Why does the player sometimes repeatedly pause?
It's called Pause Buffering. It can be used for a lot of different things like creating stabilisation on thin parts of the track to reduce the chances of falling off, performing frame perfect inputs, and getting early cycles on stages with moving elements to allow for a better time.
