I used to speedrun this like 7 years ago, so many strats are different. I love how people continue to find ways to manipulate the game and beat it even faster. Great video and good explanations on this speedrun.
@@seanmcbay it's absolutely nuts. To think a game that came out 30 years ago is still developing changes to get faster records. Probably my favorite glitch is teaching other characters abilities when leveling up using the star. Seeing Peach use Shocker is nuts.

It's also worth noting that in early versions, the Axem Rangers CONTINUED ATTACKING WHEN DEFEATED, until you beat all 5. I remember thinking this was intentional at the time, to make the fight super hard.
@@camwyn256it was shown to be isometric. Pretty sure it’s gonna be kept as a faithful remake with updated graphics and animations. Maybe they add some extra NG+ content if we’re lucky.
I thought going in it would be an interesting speedrun but it topped my expectations. The amount of precision and strat changes mid run, crazy. Great video
As always amazing video! Not sure how I feel about RUclips telling me the video is going to premiere while I'm at work the next day, but I enjoyed spending my lunch break with you man! Thank you and keep up the great content!!
Due to skill swap Peach takes on Genos sprite with her color palette when she uses his moves, I never explained that due to time constraints, but it's a neat visual and I'm glad people are picking up on it
Been enjoying the videos. You seem to be improving the quality with each one as well. One suggestion - I find the audio levels quite low. I can always turn it down but there's a limit to how much I can turn it up. Thanks for the vids! Keep it up 👍
This is awesome. I had no idea there was a speedrun community. I remember when I was younger, this came out AFTER N64 and in my biased opinion, was still better than SM64. I didn’t take my SNES to college (and then it turned out my mother sold it) so I got into emulators *just* for SMRPGLOTSS. Then when the SNES classics came out I promptly jailbroke it and loaded up SMRPG. Almost 30 years and it’s one of the few games I regularly come back to alongside Duke Nukem 3D.
You know what that means... probably a new Mario title coming out soon (jk bowser's fury was released within the last month) or a major glitch is about to be found.
It'll be very interesting to see how similar - and different - the Remake speedruns will be. I'm actually going to doing Remake runs starting tomorrow with using this as my basis.
I'll have a video out soon on remake glitches and skips; there's also a route already developed if you're interested, check out the smrpg discord, you can find it on speedrun dot com
This popped up on my recommendation. Fascinating. You know, here's an interesting tidbit that you probably already knew but just in case you didn't: The Rangers are named after their colors. Well, yeah, we've all played this before so you know that. But even in Japanese, they keep the English name. So Red isn't called Akai, which is Japanese for red. He'd called Reddo, which is the Japanese way of writing the English word "red". Same with the other rangers.
@@user-fe8gx3ie5v I am aware of this. It was sarcasm based off of Nintendo's laziness and greed. Although I suppose some of that blame falls on the consumer for settling for the BS Nintendo shovels out instead of demanding better.
@@seanross7611 welp, you're one of today's lucky 10,000! I wish I could learn of this game for the first time again, but you get to experience it now! I recommend looking into this game. the music is good, the "timed hits" system keeps the pace going during battles, and the playful humor of the game gives the story a nice touch!
They actually programmed in a reward for getting 100 super jumps? I mean that's cool but... they actually thought 100 jumps was reasonable? Idk that seems kinda extreme lol.
Does anyone have information on the Countdown flowchart mentioned at 15:07? I'm no speedrunner, but it sounds interesting and I'd like to see it, but couldn't find anything searching around.
I don't understand the thing with the freebies. You can get them every time if you do a timed hit at a specific point. The timing is different for every item, though, but it's usually after the effect is completed but before the damage is shown.
I don't know where you heard that but it's not correct, we've looked at the code and there isn't any mechanic to freebie off a button press; item freebies are entirely dependent on the RNG seed on the frame they are selected for use
@@Abyssoft I posted a reply and somehow it no longer appears. Maybe because it had a link to a forum and got flagged as spam. Who knows. But basically I was saying the guaranteed freebies are real and it was either exclusive to the US version or an unintended side effect of timed hits, aka a bug. But I've been doing them most of my life consistently and I'm not the only one saying that.
Good job slowing your cadence down. You have a good voice. I don’t know if it’s your mic or your setup but the only problem with your vids is it sounds like you’re talking over Gigagayss’s shoulder with all the distortion.
Likely all of them, the game is a complete remake so Mack Skip and Skill Swapping by changing party members after activating a star will likely be gone as they've more than likely used different coding methods. Rng manipulation is also likely going to be fixed, or at least will be vastly different than how it's done on this game.
Back in the late 90s when i got my first computer i found instructions how to hack the rom of the game with a hexeditor. I played the whole game with everything full strentgth and all the items. (I beat it cleanly on the SNES before).
Justin has done 1000 super jumps in a row at GDQ in the practice room, it's a 3 frame window per jump after the first 14, which is tough, but not close to impossible. I've streamed attempts into the 80s when I was learning the run, once you get the cadence and visual que memorized they aren't that bad.
learning hiragana and katakana is something any japanese course is gonna ask you to do in like a week, memorizing what is what for one shopping section shouldn't be seen as more impressive than any of the frame sensitive tricks speedrunners do, but maybe thats just my opinion. the menuing is done quickly (obviously) so you could make the argument you don't have time to sit and read everything, but that wouldn't be any less true in english.
I could never figure out how to get through the minecart at full speed. It's like I have to slow down to almost a standstill to take the turns without crashing.

Abyss is a man of culture.
Jiggle jiggle. My bud and I were like 12 when we came back to this game and got there and were a bit too excited about that lmao
I like how when Peach uses spells Geno has she turns into a pink Geno!
But not Mallow when she uses his magic. Must be the same colour pallet.

Gotta love these wacky sentences.
Great video! It almost makes me want to try and learn to speed run this game.
The speedrun wiki for it is very accessible, I'll throw a link to it in the description. There are even beginner, intermediate, and WR routes
Thanks so much! I’ll definitely go with beginner!
How is that going?
been binging your videos, love the content! :D

One of my fav RPGS
Best Mario game
I just remember how ZSNES bricks after Jonny fights and after first 'mega I don't rermember' Axel Rangers beam first shot.
Depends on your version, I guess. I beat SMRPG many times back in the day and I only use ZSNES.
Mario RPG was so much fun to play last year.
Not as fun as thousand year door but just as fun as paper Mario Original.
Still cant find the source song at 2:20, but that intro sick af

So unbelievably juiced for the remake.
Since this is an SNES game, could cartridge tilt help find new wrong warps?
Recaps turned into "just in a sec"s, otherwise GG! Keep it up ;)

Thought I was awesome when I freebied 3-4 times in a row, I was like "i'M tHe kInG oF tImInG"!!!
