  • I've been wanting to get to this one for a LONG while...Hey there, guys, and welcome to the Reptile Rumble! In this video, I'm trying to find out if you can beat Super Mario 64 DS without jumping! How far can we get without Mario's signature move? Is it even possible to beat Bowser this way...? Let's find out!

    Heyyyy so I somehow missed this video until now, so thanks for the shoutout !
    This video is really really well done :D I was not expecting SM64DS content, but I'm always glad to see it !
    Also, I myself attempted this run without savestates, and there are a few things that I have to add to this video, but I also learned some strats that I didn't think of !
    I was really surprised how you were able to pound the switch using the box ! There's another tech to ground pound anywhere as long as there's a corner, that you can use to pound the switch. (CGP for corner ground pound)
    On the things I did know, though:
    On my DS (so no savestates at all) I have managed to get even more stars without jumping.
    I managed to unlock Wario without savestates as well, I did it by performing a portal to land on the unloaded room and load it by leaving it (it's called the Permanently Loaded Room glitch), so that I could do another *consecutive* heaven portal while the textures fromm the mirror room were loaded. This let me aim for the painting much more accurately.
    On top of your 81 stars, here's what I got:
    BBH 100, I had to climb the stairs for a 3rd time in order to get enough coins 💀
    LLL 5. You were right at 1:08:27 ! You can use this trick to get the first star, but not the one with the pole in the middle. This one still isn't even possible with TAS :(
    DDD 100, where you have to get every coin from the black boxes and almost every coins from the skeeters at the start. I think there are max 105 reachable coins.
    TTM 1, 2, 4, 7, 100. I figured out that you can use the giant mushroom from one of the wooden poles to kick over the big gap. Extremely tight timing to pull of and very annoying, because you have to do a CGP to pound the pole without jumping.
    THI 1, 2, 3, 4, 100. I found a setup to heaven portal straight into the big island painting. Pretty stupid to figure out but can get consistent.
    TTC 3, 6. Same trick, heaven portal. Make sure to enter with random time, otherwise you won't be able to climb the first part. Tricky but forgiving climb.
    RR 2, 3, 4, 5, 100. Heaven portal, and also to get star 4 and 5 you have to get balloon mario in the big house, use the winds to get hyper speed and do a groundpound of faith once you're above those stars. If you fail you go back up the carpet again.
    CCC black box star. After unlocking Wario, I had to redo the two consecutive heaven portals to enter Wario's stage. Here, I put his cap on and collect the star stuck in the black box
    Btw, this means you can get 80 stars without using any heaven portals ! Though you still need one to get to BitS as Yoshi...
    These are 21 additionnal stars, which means my score issss... 103 stars ! ummm somehow this doesn't add up and idk why lol
    Now theoretically, it might be possible to get a few more stars:
    WF 1 and 2, you can use CGP on King Whomp, it's still extremely stupid and precise, but at least you don't have to time it with the spinning platforms anymore, so I can see it being done.
    THI 6, it might be possible to bring the tiny koopa to help pounding the top of the island, but no consistent setup has been found yet.
    TTM 6, I actually thought of something while writing this comment, you can get on top of the mountain, get the wings as Mario, go back down and take the cannon, fire, and use an exploit about flying against OoB to get a lot of height and collect the coins in the rings. Time to grind this one !
    This would bring the total to 107 stars ! 15 stars away from the TAS score on version 1.1, and 24 stars away on 1.0
    Finally, About BitS. I spent many hours searching for a setup to bring the goomba to the spinning platform, but the seesaw platform is just too chaotic. It's too hard for me at least. The rest of the level can be done pretty consistently though ! In fact, I've done a complete run of this game with only 1 B press.
    And I am currently the WR holder :D
    Out of 1 run D:
    Well, that wraps up everything I wanted to say ! Once again, amazing video ! SM64DS doesn't sell as much as its N64 counterpart, but it's soooo fun to play around with it :)
    While the SM64 ABC is an insane challenge for TASers, and the any% 0xA quest is still to this day going on, I feel like the SM64DS BBC is a challenge for RTA. It's not impossible that we'll se a full 0xB run in the future, but it would require new strategies and a crazy level of dedication !
    oh btw we have an inactive discord where I document most of my strats for this challenge ! (how exciting ! An inactive discord !)

      Hey, I'm really glad to see you here! You were one of the main inspirations for this run, so I'm glad you did enjoy it. As for the stars...I felt there were definitely more stars that were possible, but I had a very hard time just getting 80 together like I wanted. I think I saw the corner ground pound trick, but I didn't think I could pull it off humanly. Should've given it a better try, seeing as how it would've potentially gotten several more stars.
      I don't think I knew you could keep a room loaded that way...It indeed would have helped a lot, though I would have gotten it eventually without savestates. I don't think I would've been able to handle the Goomba escort without savestates, though. Not without spending a really, really long time practicing, at least. It'll be amazing if someone does eventually manage a 0xB run, whether it's you or a new challenger!
      Thanks again for showing up and commenting here, especially with such a detailed comment! This is a pretty interesting challenge, especially when you take the RIG out of the equation.
      Lastly, that inactive discord is how I ended up finding your Discord account. I think I'm actually still in there!

    RE: Save state use in a challenge like this:
    There's a point where a challenge stops being "Am I, personally, capable of doing this difficult thing" (EG: Dark souls hitless) and becomes "Is it possible, within the mechanics of the game, to achieve this?" (EG:... well, Mario 64 jumpless.)
    And when it reaches that point, when the difficulty moves to being less about execution, and more about the effort of trying Over and Over hoping for the RNG to be right? Yeah, tool assist away!
    You've only got so much time, and we wanna know if it's Possible, even if highly improbable!
    Also, the less time you spend headbutting a brick wall down, the more time you have for the next video of headbutting a New brick wall down.

    • @NovemberJoy
      @NovemberJoy  10 месяцев назад +68

      I think this explanation makes sense - there is a lot of difficulty in execution as well, but there's also a difference between "You can totally beat this, but can I pull it off?" vs. "Is this even possible?" I'm glad it worked out, thanks for the comment!

    @zeemaster99 10 месяцев назад +126

    I think the save state was valid. You've proven that you have the ability to perform the trick, the only limiting factor was time. You could've done this without save states, it just would've taken more time/attempts. So cutting out some of the extra fat after already proving it was possible and within your ability is acceptable for the purposes of this challenge.

    • @NovemberJoy
      @NovemberJoy  9 месяцев назад +6

      I can work with this reasoning. I know I could've done that bit without save states, I just wanted to save time for the people watching live. I'll have to keep this in mind for later projects - thanks for the comment!

    • @NovemberJoy
      @NovemberJoy  8 месяцев назад +20

      It kinda is. It works that way because you don't actually have to unlock Luigi or Wario - I never did when I played this originally. Makes for a pretty lonely ending, only beaten out by cheating to beat the game with only Yoshi unlocked...and yes, Mario won't show up in the ending if he isn't unlocked, even though it's impossible to reach the ending without Mario unlocked unless you cheat if I remember correctly.

    I think that for a challenge run like this the use of save states is perfectly fine. The video seems to be about "is it possible to do these things" instead of "can I do it all perfectly in one go" or something. You demonstrated that it was possible and (reasonably) don't wanna spend hours headbutting a brick wall to do something you already know is possible.
    All around this video was incredibly impressive regardless, and entertaining. Definitely subscribing

      He can spawn Mario caps when you fight him the other two times, so I guess they didn't see any reason to remove that for the final fight that you shouldn't be able to reach while playing as Yoshi anyway. Interesting little fact when you think about it.

    I finally finished this video and since it's been a while, I just watched it from the start again. I love the pole redemdition arc right at the end after all they've put you through in this challenge. My favorite part is definitely the Goomba escort mission at the end even though that probably isn't your favorite ;). There were a lot of cool strategies and uses for the characters you had access to which was also fun to see!

      I'm glad you finally got the chance to watch it yourself! I did enjoy the pole's redemption arc, although it wasn't much to make up for what happened in the past, and the Goomba escort was a pretty interesting part as well - it was not the most fun to play, but I hoped it would be good in video form! It helps that there's a whole community for this game and this specific challenge, but it still had plenty of difficulty in execution.
      I'm hoping I can eventually find something else to top this. I'm not sure what it would be, but it'll come sooner or later. Good luck with your own challenges - I think you've already got some that will top this once you manage to complete them!

One thing that killed me though was the chain chomp star - I'm pretty sure there's a breakable brick block somewhere after the 4th level (rematch with the king bomb guy) that has a giant mushroom in it. You can use that to instantly destroy the pope holding the chomp in place

    Great video! I'd definitely recommend applying a bit of compression and maybe an equalizer to your microphone if you don't already. It'd help some of the bassier tones in your voice shine through a bit more. It'd also be pretty cool to have a star counter on screen since there's a lot of negative space on the sides and I often found myself wanting to check what you were at when glancing back over at the video (I watch a lot of stuff in the background so little HUD stuff like that can be really helpful). Awesome job! Will definitely check out more of your stuff.

    • @NovemberJoy
      @NovemberJoy  9 месяцев назад +2

      ...Actually, I was applying compression and EQ to my audio in post! Maybe I could've done a better job of it, though. I was mostly just boosting low and high end - equivalent to combining Audacity's "Bass Boost" and "Treble Boost" presets together, along with the default compressor settings. I'm not an audio whiz, so I just messed with it and re-recorded until I had something that sounded good to me - if there's something you'd be willing to teach me, I'd be all ears!
      Now that you mention it, I could've put a star counter on-screen as well. It would've taken a bit longer to edit together, but it would've been possible. I'll keep that in mind for later videos. Thanks for the super-detailed comment, glad to hear you enjoyed the video!

    My take on the use of save states is that for runs that are functionally "can I do x" then using save states to avoid wasting time on tricks you completed but were time consuming is fine because that does not change the spirit of the challenge. You know you can do the trick, you did it before, the challenge becomes overcoming the next obstacle and not testing your patience doing the last one. It would be different if this were a race against yourself or another, because then time would be a core part of your run but at least where I am in the video there is no indication that you are even keeping track of your time so it is fine since it does not impact the end result which is if you can physically do the thing.

    @FartingSpider12 7 месяцев назад +2

    I always love how people who do these challenge runs ask if things like savestates and glitches are ok to use (especially when theyve already sunk tens if not hundreds of hours into the challenge). The way I see it, the object of the video is to prove if the run is POSSIBLE to do; probability is a much less important factor in my mind. Use savestates and frame perfect inputs all you want; I'm just here to see players bend games to their unreasonable demands.

    I think it's odd people don't count the roll out jump as a jump but the P balloon is?
    sounds like a classic case of you can only do it because you guys are able to break the rule from day 1.

    • @NovemberJoy
      @NovemberJoy  9 месяцев назад +6

      Well, for one thing, it helps to have a consistent ruleset - the main rule here is to not press the B button, and rising up with Balloon Mario uses the B button as well. If you don't ban it entirely, you have to keep a whole list of moves that are banned, and the rules feel more and more arbitrary for every specific thing you have to ban. On the other hand, if you ban the rollout flip, then the challenge is kind of a failure from the very start since you now have absolutely no way to gain any vertical height at all, and that's no fun. Hopefully this explains the thought process!

    Imo my judge for what's a legit run or not is: "does it stick with the rules set?" and "does it stay within the spirit of the challenge?"
    If it sticks with the current rules set then it's all good there.
    If it stays within the spirit of the challenge then I'd say that's all good there as well. I'm usually picky with certain challenge rules because of how often people bend them to fit a specific thing when they clearly didn't try to look for any alternatives, and I'd say using savestates to pull off a trick that you very clearly did research in and that trick still being within the spirit of the challenge is something I personally see no problem in doing.
    I love when challenges like this pull off some really odd and crazy glitches kind of like how YMFAH does it, and as long as those are being used to achieve a goal then I'm happy with it.

    Save States to reset you to the position you need to be in to begin your techs is perfectly fine in my eyes.
    Arguably in that final stage, save stating at each individual point you need to get the Goomba transferred to a new platform is "cheating".
    But when executing that steategy in one unbroken run requires a blue moon on a Friday the 13th at 11:59 pm during a lunar eclipse whilst the stars are aligned as Cthulu is being summoned for the seventh time within a...(you get the idea)...yeah, it's perfectly valid as far as I'm concerned.

    This was an awesome video dude! I watched it all from beginning to end, and I didn't expect to do that. It was a big journey, and I really liked that. I also liked the Pannenkoek references.
    I did think though that using the heaven portal glitch to do the ending parts was too glitchy to do for an average player, though I don't mind normal, easier glitches. However, upon seeing that you had to pull of insane movements and needed to abuse save states for that goomba trick to even have a chance at finishing Bowser in the Sky, those previous feelings of "eh, it's a bit unrealistic to do normally" subsided, since even if you found a way to get 80 stars some other way, you would still need to do all of that unrealistic stuff with the goomba to even reach Bowser.

There are people researching, though, and trying to find setups to get past the Goomba escort without any assistance. If they manage to pull it off, I'll be pretty impressed!

      It's likely you haven't. In that case, I'm glad I could expose you to something new and enjoyable! Hopefully the algorithm smiles on it - if not, then I'll simply move on to another idea.

    i had no idea you could make square eggs by having yoshi swallow a box. That's actually really funny. I usually ditch yoshi in favor of the other characters at the soonest possible instance

    • @NovemberJoy
      @NovemberJoy  3 месяца назад +1

      It is pretty funny, and something a lot of players probably don't see! I like using Yoshi, but sadly he's blocked off from a lot of stars without using caps due to not being able to break boxes or defeat certain enemies. This run gave him a chance to prove his worth, though, and he did so admirably!

    I watched this video because it showed up in my recommended list and I have to say that was an amazing job you did there! Personally I do not find the save states to be cheating since some tricks you had to do, especially the Heaven exploit is not easy to pull off. I remember doing it myself and it took me hours before I got it right, even longer than your two. I'm glad I watched this video, it kind of makes me intrigued to do a run like this myself, maybe not on my physical copy of the game because doing the Heaven exploit for many hours again will be annoying... But once again, great job!

    I really loved this video! I didn't even realise it was 1 hour long, it just felt like 20 minutes by how well made it was
    I have this idea of maybe me adding captions to other languages like Spanish (RUclips used to have community subtitles) but i'm not sure how adding captions is made at all-

      I'm glad you enjoyed the video that much! I'm thrilled that you'd even consider something like that, though I'd have to brush up on how RUclips handles captions as well since I've never touched them before. Thanks for the comment - if this is something you're still interested in, maybe we can get in touch some other way?

    Man SM64DS is such a classic, it's a shame it is just a repaint of SM64 with some new stuff cus I absolutely loved this game as a kid and wish more people talked about it.
    14:20 "I made sure to give Bowser my complaints for not making this course handicap accessible" lmao.
    48:26 "First we need to talk about the afterlife" is the new "First we need to talk about parallel universes." xD
    1:00:44 I sometimes forget that Bowser canonically designs the courses in these games lol.

      @NovemberJoy  10 месяцев назад +1

      It is a classic, though the controls do sometimes hold it back a little. I wish it were possible to play the game with proper analog control and stuff - being able to experience the new content and everything with better controls and physics would be awesome!
      Glad you enjoyed the jokes and stuff. A lot of time was poured into the script, so it's nice that it all worked out as expected!

    I want to say save states are valid if they cut out the tediousness.
    If you need to ram into a wall over and over to randomly have a single shot to make a jump, it's okay to savestate when the random chance works so you don't waste time doing nothing.
    However it is not okay when it reduces skill involved.
    Like if you fight a boss and you drop a savestate so you can try over and over to avoid one attack. That is a case where it wouldn't be okay unless it was absolutely necessary just so you could say it can be done even if it's not viable for a human to pull it off without tools.

    • @seanrrr
      @seanrrr 2 месяца назад

      Agreed. In general, I think it's okay to use save states as long as you title the video "Is it possible to...", not "I beat X without...".

    • @NovemberJoy
      @NovemberJoy  Месяц назад

      I think I can generally agree with this perspective. It's because of this that I'd prefer to avoid save states whenever possible, but in this case I think I used them with proper discretion. Thanks for the feedback!

    You have one life. Spending it all for Wario is very noble, but if you can save state to avoid decreasing your life expectancy by 50 years, that sounds very valid 👍✨

    I'm pretty hyped that they're porting dark moon to switch, obviously what they really need to do is port this to switch. Some people might find it weird since they still have an officially ported super Mario 64 in its OG state other than in the online n64 thing but I would love to see this game ported to switch I love this game while I was a kid I have really good memories with it.

    • @NovemberJoy
      @NovemberJoy  8 месяцев назад +1

      I'm really hoping they port this at some point too. Literally all you'd need is a little reworking of the controls and it might just be the best version of the game.

      Given how Nintendo has been acting recently about some of their decisions, I think if people make enough of an uproar about it they might listen. It seems like they're being a lot more receptive to fan feedback now.
