    hey all! I hope you enjoy! I really had a lot of fun doing this. I just want to note I might NOT be the first person in the world cause who knows right? I have never seen a video or anything of a 1 hand completion, hope you enjoy! wooooooooooooo

      That was a fun run to watch. I also think the game is so popular and so good that there is a chance at least one and perhaps even a few disabled persons have done this feat before. In any case, kudos!

      Considering that there are a lot of one armed/handed gamers out there, it’s pretty safe assume someone has completed the game with one hand.
      That said, they didn’t record themselves so sucks to suck for them (:

    When I was a kid, I had a neighbor who was shot when he was in junior high and was paralyzed on one side and had a level of brain damage. But I remember watching him play Mario one handed. It was really something to watch. He'd put the controller on his thigh and play while sitting in the floor.

      I also had a friend when I was a kid who could only play with one hand as he only had one fully developed arm. I can't say with 100% certainty, but I am fairly sure he beat SMB3.
      Still an impressive challenge but I think there are a number of people for whom this feat would be considered 'normal'.
