@@ajshitshed the CPUs never actually finish the race, the game just makes up times for them xD it's very silly loool, and also sorry for the delay on this!
Which one's the worst case that has the most visibility of rubberbanding? I knew 64 also had this watching a TAS run of that, but didn't know GBA also did, too.
i know right!! lool, i remember calculating what the average time for a race was in this TAS and i think it's like 8-9 seconds, so yeah a lot of them end up feeling so much slower xD
I absolutely adore the recurring Mario Kart TAS pattern of "bonk into a wall a bunch and you beat the race really fast" for the first three games Also I heavily appreciate the commentary, it makes TASes of games I'm not familiar with far more interesting in my opinion.
aww yay im glad the commentary was useful! it's nice to know what's going on when you're not as familiar with the game :) and yeah! i love all the wall bonking lool
really sick video, i've known how crazy this game is for a while but had yet to see a TAS of it before today! the notes on the left are real nice for this
as someone who grew up with MKSC and loves the game to death, this was a really fun and informative watch! if i had to guess why DP3 and MC4 did not get that "finish line not extending into the wall" issue fixed while KB2 did, it's probably because the finish line must align (specifically horizontally?) with a 2x2-tile grid just like in SMK, starting and ending at the exact edges of tiles. (this is a guess because i don't know much about MKSC's internals, but it does seem like a lot of track logic carried over from SMK, and it was the case in that game) if the finish line extended into the wall on those two tracks, you'd be able to complete a lap by bumping into the wall from the other side instead. KB2 doesn't have that issue because you cannot reach the other side of the wall normally, thus it was fixable without changing the actual track tilemap
ohh yeah that does make sense- good idea! interestingly enough you can still make it to the other side on KB2 but it requires much more shenanigans than the other ones :P im really glad you liked the video!!! it's always fun to see dedicated fans of the game :) not common!
I'm glad you included commentary alongside the footage; it helps explain what's going on without being intrusive, which is much appreciated. Also, I had to do a double take when Peach Circuit was completed in a matter of seconds; I had no idea it could be beaten that fast!
Also I had a time trial 0.03 lap idea on rDP3, I you could probably get stuck in between the 2 block wide wall by using the bounce pad on the first bridge. I have not done it yet but I am trying. I use the Nintendo switch online rewind tool ALOT in mksc but it only saves your state ever 1.5 seconds.
thanks! yeah you definitely guessed what was gonna happen lol :) im glad you liked it!!! also yeah, ive thought about that course as well, i haven't been able to get something like that to work but it feels like it ought to.. i need to learn more about how wall collision works

I expected almost nothing in this run but wow that was so fun! A lot of cool strats and I can tell this took a lot of planning to make, really great job!
While I can't say I think of this game even remotely favorably, it's nonetheless an important game. Seeing it get spectacularly broken is especially cathartic and generally entertaining. I'm glad you put up those notes in the video, which really allows us viewers to appreciate the context. Also, thank you for your hard work in the face of this game's shenanigans. Incidentally, this video reminded me that Snow Land's intro was added much later.
yeah agreed! it's always nice to know what's going on, especially with TASes where everything is so high-level, there's a big knowledge gap to be bridged and i think it was very much worth the effort since everyone seems to enjoy it so much :D thanks!! ^^
10 cups in 22 mins what a crazy thing XD it was fun to watch! I started really enjoying the TAS stuff because it's just so entertaining to watch and see how you guys push the games to the limits they can reach!
Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful TAS. Optimal or not, it was super fun to watch and I am amazed by how broken some of my childhood games can be. Good show!
This was such a cool TAS! Who would've known bananas were so broken in this game? Also, it's crazy to me that you didn't get 3 star rankings for all of the retro cups. I thought I was the only one who had a hard time getting good rankings in those cups, but I guess speedrunners do, too. 😆
incredible work. i already knew Su TAS, but this is awesome thanks to the on screen rich description. On a tech side, the game is known to avoid certain hundreths on race time (but not on lap time). I’ve been always puzzled by this fact. lap skips are either of 0.03 or 0.04: it must be an hint. Do you know exactly how it works? And since the last lap time must be adjusted by the game to avoid certain hundreths, does it subtract or does it add 1 hundreth to the last lap? this could be useful for the fast lap time attack (better to do on early laps or on the last one?).
good question! indeed many decimals are avoided this is because, due to the 100 decimals not dividing evenly into 60 frames per second, some frames are "01 long and some are "02 long. specifically, the game alternates with one "01 frame then two "02 frames. so "03 and "04 are both 2 frames long, just with different lengths of frames edit: this is also why the game avoids certain ending decimals, if you follow this pattern the ending decimal will never land on 2, 4, 7, or 9
For the longest time I had no idea that hidden stats (Peach having the highest drift, Yoshi having weird turning, etc.) existed in Super Circuit, so I was always very bewildered when I saw older TAS videos use seemingly random choices like Luigi and Donkey Kong. Your annotations give a lot of clarity on why certain characters are used which is great! Is there any resource where these things can be found or do you just kind of find them out yourself? Either way, terrific video! The Sky Garden clip in particular made me gush.
aww yay im glad!! and hm, i don't know if any really good concise list of all the character stats, i personally just learned them from asking other people xD here's a synopsis of everyone i know about: Bowser: highest top speed, lowest in everything else DK: a bit slower than Bowser but much better drifting, and better steering Wario: not really useful for anything in particular so i haven't explored much, but ive heard he recovers well if you run into a wall without a boost. in general has similar stats to Bowser Luigi: tightest steering Mario: also not useful for anything afaik, but similar stats to luigi Peach: tightest drifting, pretty slow Toad: highest acceleration, slowest top speed Yoshi: weird drifting, pretty slow ill add a quick sidenote that regardless of each character's top speed, they all go the same speed in a mushroom boost. but yeah i don't have all the details of stats, but i at least have the knowledge i used to pick which one to use for TASes xD and yeah!! im glad you like sky garden lool :) it felt so satisfying when i first found that trick at the end
thanks!! and great question :) it's basically because, since 60 frames don't divide evenly into 100 digits, some frames add "01 to the timer and some add "02. so "03 and "04 laps are both 2 frames long, the "03 has an "01 and an "02 frame, and the "04 has two "02 frames. it's sadly not possible to get two "01 frames in a row, so a "02 lap is not possible
Fantastic TAS and loved the explanations! Just curious, is there a link to this game’s item probability tables? Could never find one for this game. I find it bonkers that 1st place can get triple greens!
ayy thanks so much!! indeed item tables are hard to come by for this game, this is the best that i know of vxtwitter.com/Airship804/status/1745790280190812194
if the TAS uses bananas to make them go mach speed, and assuming its mostly due to the slipping, why not use other slipping items like a shell? Just curious, idk if its a dumb question.
no worries it's a good question! it turns out the other items just have a different kind of spinout that just doesn't work. this is also the same for the puddles on luigi circuit and the ice on snow land, they just don't work apparently. if it helps, this has nothing to do with going extremely fast, the key is the banana spinout makes you stick to the wall. sadly if you hit a shell or puddle or ice or something, you'll bounce off the wall instead of sticking i hope that helps! feel free to ask more questions if you like :)
@@Nickels11 yep it's a different spinout 👍 other obstacles that give the same spinout are the rats on cheese land, the penguins on snow land, the fireballs on the nitro bowser castle tracks, the mechakoopas on bowser castle 4, the meteors on lakeside park, and the crabs on shy guy beach and cheep cheep island. none of those are actually useful though except for the banana and the cheese land rats 👍 i hope that helps!
Sometimes I wonder... did they use the same engine from SMK to make Super Circuit? There seems to be a lot of tricks and bugs that have carried over to this game from SMK now that I'm watching this TAS.
I feel like Ambassador Foxx from TAS Rats (formerly TAS Force) in that one video where he was getting angry at Toad for cheating in Mario Kart 64. (I'm not actually angry at this. I'm just in disbelief at this exploit.)
ah yep! it was mentioned but sorry it passed so quickly 😅 toad has the fastest acceleration, which is useful for every time we stop and turn around. peach has the tightest drifting and is slightly faster than toad overall, the drifting was important for cheese land and bowser castle 2, and none of the tracks in the flower cup need the acceleration 👍 i hope that helps!
good question! once you have them unlocked you just push either of the shoulder buttons (L or R), but first you have to unlock them, which is really tough step 1: unlock special cup by getting a gold trophy in each other cup (i think any cc will do) step 2: pick any nitro cup and get gold in 150cc (i think it's 150cc, but i don't remember) step 3: play that cup again and collect 100 coins (this is cumulatively throughout all 4 tracks, retrying makes you lose the coins you collected in that race, coins do not accumulate across multiple grand prix's), you do not have to get gold on this playthrough after the final step, you will unlock the corresponding "extra" cup for whatever cup you chose. do that on all 5 cups and you will unlock all the SNES tracks! it is a very long process i hope this helps!
the fastest course in the run was donut plains 1, it has the fastest time in the game than any other course :) the fastest course for me to TAS was probably either ghost valley 3 or retro rainbow road, in ghost valley 3i remember lap 1 taking a whole but the rest of the race worked out very nicely, and retro rainbow road is definitely the easiest to TAS on its own, it's mostly just copying the same inputs each lap, optimizing it wasn't very difficult either
in this case it's because the glitch on koopa beach 2 only works on the japanese version. in general though, sometimes for other games text scrolling impacts time, and japanese often has the shortest text. sometimes it's just cause the player is japanese, and sometimes it's just for aesthetic :P i hope that helps!

I’ve been always puzzled by this fact.

this is because, due to the 100 decimals not dividing evenly into 60 frames per second, some frames are "01 long and some are "02 long. specifically, the game alternates with one "01 frame then two "02 frames.
so "03 and "04 are both 2 frames long, just with different lengths of frames
edit: this is also why the game avoids certain ending decimals, if you follow this pattern the ending decimal will never land on 2, 4, 7, or 9

There seems to be a lot of tricks and bugs that have carried over to this game from SMK now that I'm watching this TAS.
it seems that way! the driving physics are very similar :)
Today we learn that they forgot to program the finish line extensions for the last 2 cups it seems
yeah loool, really strange
What is this timeline where the banana is the most broken item in Mario kart history 😂
i know right looool we live in the craziest timeline xD
500th view LMAO, as a fan of this game it's awesome to see a TAS like this!
yooo awesome dude!! thanks for the view :O and yay im glad you liked it and are such a fan of the game!!!
I feel like Ambassador Foxx from TAS Rats (formerly TAS Force) in that one video where he was getting angry at Toad for cheating in Mario Kart 64.
(I'm not actually angry at this. I'm just in disbelief at this exploit.)
loool no worries i getcha xD yeah screw toad for goin so fast!
Jesus christ this is just unbelievable
heck yeah!! thanks cailyn :D
Yeye you're welcome! :D
This tas guy is insanely skilled!
so true!! lol :)
I would love to see a nmg version of this tas seeing (retro) Mario circuit 1 be a 9 second full lap just because Turing around was slow was also fun
yeah it would be cool! you should definitely watch su's TAS then if you haven't, ive got it linked in the description 👍
The banana is my favorite item to troll with in Mario Kart. >=]
heck yeah! mine too 😎
@@RobertMcKinnonMainChannel Amazing speedrun. I did not know bananas could be used like that to trick the game.
@@noble_wine thanks!! yeah it's crazy lool
GG, this was interesting

Great TAS! Would you be willing to share a .bk2 file? I would like to try to replay this on an actual GBA.
is there a reason why toad and peach are picked? I saw why yoshi was. I probably missed the text that said it but, I was still curious!
ah yep! it was mentioned but sorry it passed so quickly 😅 toad has the fastest acceleration, which is useful for every time we stop and turn around. peach has the tightest drifting and is slightly faster than toad overall, the drifting was important for cheese land and bowser castle 2, and none of the tracks in the flower cup need the acceleration 👍
i hope that helps!
@@RobertMcKinnonMainChannel thanks for taking your time to inform me! awesome video too :)
@@Clouditivity aw thanks!! im really glad you like it :) and no problem!!
when the rubber band snaps at mach 4 lol
yeah lool, the CPUs are on cope 😩
Nice TAS! I've tried practicing the banana glitch in Mario GP, but it still hasn't worked out yet 😅Must be really tricky.
thanks!! yeah it's tough, you have to hit the wall very precisely where it touches the finish line
if you keep trying you'll get it! 💪🔥
Say, how do you access the Retro Tracks for this game? What buttons do I have to press?
good question! once you have them unlocked you just push either of the shoulder buttons (L or R), but first you have to unlock them, which is really tough
step 1: unlock special cup by getting a gold trophy in each other cup (i think any cc will do)
step 2: pick any nitro cup and get gold in 150cc (i think it's 150cc, but i don't remember)
step 3: play that cup again and collect 100 coins (this is cumulatively throughout all 4 tracks, retrying makes you lose the coins you collected in that race, coins do not accumulate across multiple grand prix's), you do not have to get gold on this playthrough
after the final step, you will unlock the corresponding "extra" cup for whatever cup you chose. do that on all 5 cups and you will unlock all the SNES tracks! it is a very long process
i hope this helps!
Oh my… yeah this helps, I’m going to tear all my hair out. XD
Thank you!
Nice TAS!
Pd: Bismuth is very broken in this game.
ayy thanks!! your joke took me a second xD but i get it!
that was wild wtf
hell yeah thank you!!
Toad Assisted Speedrun
yes! lol :) goat browser
Great job with this TAS, thanks for share it.
yoo thanks!! im glad you like it :D
"oh im excited to see how this first race go-"
*hits wall a bunch*
*profit*
✨profit✨
Is that banana glitch japan exclusive or tas only
nope and nope! it's not easy but you can definitely do it with some practice :) and you can do it on any version of the game 🙌🔥
The chese land only Was 3 second
indeed 🤯
That was intense on boo lake
indeed! i like watching that one back :) some cool strats there
Weird but In a Cool Way
heck yeah! just what im going for 😎 lol, thanks!!
This was insane. If you blinked you missed two whole races. Excellent use of tool assist
yoo thanks!! im glad i could make an entertaining TAS :)
Are you planning to submit this to TASVideos?
ah yeah! i should get on that at some point, lol :)
@@RobertMcKinnonMainChannel ok good to know. Let me know if you have any questions if you have problems submitting.
@@RobertMcKinnonMainChannel It's been a couple months. Are you having issues submitting or you're too busy?
@@RobertMcKinnonMainChannel it's been about six months... Is everything alright?
@@dekutony hello! sorry, yeah just been too lazy i guess. not sure when ill get to it
Love this game
same!
WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ON PEACH CIRCUIT
banana!!!
You can skip an entire race, BY USING A BANANA??
ikr!! it's so crazy loool
Is the banana trick possible without TAS? thanks
yep it's possible humanly! not super difficult either :)
Which track was the fastest and which one was the easiest? (I am mad at wario, but he caused a better time)
the fastest course in the run was donut plains 1, it has the fastest time in the game than any other course :)
the fastest course for me to TAS was probably either ghost valley 3 or retro rainbow road, in ghost valley 3i remember lap 1 taking a whole but the rest of the race worked out very nicely, and retro rainbow road is definitely the easiest to TAS on its own, it's mostly just copying the same inputs each lap, optimizing it wasn't very difficult either
Mario Kart Advance is my 2nd favorite Mario Kart game. Wish they had Donkey Kong Jr. instead of Donkey Kong.
ah nice! idk tho DK is pretty sick haha
You said this isn't flawless, but what time would a perfect TAS have? Sub 30 possible?
hm, maybe! that would need something like ~.25 timesave on average per track, i think that could be possible! :)
interesting question!
How come all WR Vids are on JP games?
in this case it's because the glitch on koopa beach 2 only works on the japanese version. in general though, sometimes for other games text scrolling impacts time, and japanese often has the shortest text. sometimes it's just cause the player is japanese, and sometimes it's just for aesthetic :P
i hope that helps!
0'00'04 second lap?!
@@owenmillichip3404 yep!!
B A N A N A
Lakitu got fired after this
hell yeah loool
7:46 Yeah this is normal
yes indeed! haha :)
At which adress in memory does the item roulette cycle?
good question! i never actually ended up finding that one, when i was TASing i just relied on just trial and error
Good thing they patched Koopa Beach 2 for the international releases, otherwise this game would have been totally broken!
i know right LOL xD
Literally every race takes like 2 seconds to finish 🤣
yeah xD it's a great game!!
