However, now that he has actually succeeded in beating the game in under 30 minutes, it's possible that he might get an ever faster speed-drumming run in future. Manage cookie settingsĬZR notes in the video description for the Super Mario 64 world record that the drum run was only supposed to be theoretical at the beginning - it was just something fun to experiment with. To see this content please enable targeting cookies. His channel is filled with all sorts of absurd drum runs - he even set the speed-drumming world record for beating Ganon in The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, which he also managed to accomplish in under 30 minutes. This isn't the only speed-drumming record CZR has set. Not bad for a 24-year-old game with a massive speedrunning community behind it. Developed by Nintendo Entertainment Analysis and Development and published by Nintendo. I would love to see someone re-create this in higher resolution. Super Mario 64 is a 1996 platform game for the Nintendo 64. What you see is a screen capture from a Nintendo Laser-Disc advertisement for All-Stars. Rather, its the semi-official US art for the game, as seen on the cover of Super Mario All-Stars. If CZR was to submit his score to the official leaderboard for any input method - which means the one where everybody else is obviously using a normal controller - he'd be rank 880. And lastly, Super Mario Bros: The Lost Levels. The record for a regular Nintendo 64 controller is almost twice as fast as this, with world record holder Akki having beaten the game with 16 stars in 14 minutes 59 seconds. It's worth noting that this is a Super Mario 64 16 Star drumming speedrun, meaning that you need to collect 16 stars and complete the game as quickly as possible while only having access to a drum kit. Occasionally, he combines the two and speedruns iconic games using a pair of drumsticks instead of an ordinary controller.Ĭheck out the video below, which shows CZR speed-drumming his way through Super Mario 64 in under 30 minutes. The streamer in question - who goes by the handle CZR - regularly publishes a mix of drum covers and gaming videos to his YouTube channel. Here are our top 15 reasons why Super Mario 64 is totally overrated.A Super Mario 64 streamer recently set a brand new world record while playing through the game using nothing but an electronic drum set. But even if we don’t like to admit it, in parts the game just doesn’t live up to the hype. Without it setting the template for 3D platformers to come, the transition to the 3D era would not have been as seamless as it was. That’s not to take anything away from Super Mario 64’s legacy. Whether it be the fiddly camera, blocky character models, or those blooming rabbits in the basement you just can’t snatch, there are a ton of moments that make you put your controller down and think, “was I really that much into this?” But looking back now, there are parts that really haven’t stood the test of time.
Yes, Super Mario 64 was ground-breaking back in the day.
We seriously debated whether the rabbit is more annoying than the monkey, before finally decided he is due to him being just so much more in your face, bounding around the castle basement and rubbing it in how rubbish you are at moving around in 3D. Camera controls, pin-ship platforming, huge worlds teeming with secrets – they were all implemented with such perfection, it was astounding this was Nintendo’s first proper 3D title. Super Mario 64’s rubbish picking up mechanic strikes again. Although 3D games had preceded Super Mario 64 (even on Nintendo systems, a la the Super FX Chip), Mario’s debut 3D outing was the game that defined what 3D adventures would be from now on. It was certainly revolutionary in its day, with its fancy-pant polygons, fully explorable 3D playgrounds, and thumb-numbing N64 analogue stick control. When it comes to revolutionary video games, surely few games can be considered as perfect as Super Mario 64.
