How Mario World was Beaten in 41 Seconds

Super Mario World usually takes about 5 hours to normally beat the game. But this is how a speed runner completed the game in just 41 seconds. You have to watch this crazy feat!

Arbitrary code execution is so cool, it's nice to see how many games are having methods discovered

[Chadsgameroom]

Game: I'm so confused right now so I'm just going to say you win

[BOMBON]

SMW cartridge: "Shit Yoshi is not supposed to be able to eat Chuck"
SNES: "Just end it"

speedrunning is now just programming LOL

Yoshi eating Mario’s ass. Didn’t think I’d see that today.

SETHBLING IS STILL ON THE TOP THAT MAKES ME HAPPY

Thank God, I can get some housework done now I've saved those 5 hours

The game: "He's begining... to believe"

The game trying to do the calculations: fuck it you win.

This is an example of how there's too many damn people on this earth. There's enough of them that one spent their time discovering this

This is why game code needs to be encrypted, so discoverers happen organically over decades of playing.

Ah yes. The fun way to play video games

[louisglen]

Even more impressive, using a similar yet more complex ACE technique Sethbling got a fully functional flappy bird clone working within super Mario world. Crazy stuff

[asheronwindspear]

To get a pixel perfect run like this takes more than the 5 hours of the regular speed run.

[EBstudio]

So you had to break the game by tricking it that you're getting a stroke, oh got it

[AlliSinned]

I remember the Sethbling videos about this trick and him being one of the first (if not THE first?) to pull it off. Cool to see the movement being optimized further to this day

[AdemonGamer]

This trick is actually called ACE which refers to coding the game inside of the game. Thes process takes a lot of training and is so complicated that it has its own category in the Mario Speedrun records. In this case, what he did was program the game to trigger the end sequence by letting it run multiple programs to find a way to continue the game without crashing. This technique was also used to make flappy bird in Mario so that's something🙂👍

Its like reading the last page of a mystery novel first
