0:57 -- Have you tried using the P-switch near the end of the level to turn the brown block into a coin? You could then ride Yoshi that way! 3:56 -- There are Parakoopas in this level's side area. You can grab a shell from one and use it to hit the block instead!
In 1-2, what if you brought a koopa shell to the end, hit the block containing the p-switch, brought it all the way back, and used the p-switch to get Yoshi off the block?
Here’s my top 5 reasons why Nico is NOT cringe and it’ no particular order 1: he is an epic gamer he beats video games in super hard ways a cringe person can’t do that 2: he have tons of views on RUclips regardless of likes or dislikes he still dose videos and never guives up a cringe person would guive up with too many dislikes 3: he does epic videos He is always a great person to watch A cringe person cannot do videos as good and epic as those 4: he always listen to his fans when fans asks him to do some kind of video he dose that a cringe person would only do stuff using it’s own mind and wouldn’t listen 5: he is a good person he someone who is worthy of having a wife in the future he would never get that if he is cringe by looks Good job nico keep up the good work
This one was pretty good! This "without hitting the Blocks" series is turning out nicely. You should try and beat NSMBW without touching a Block next! :D
At 10:34, you can also beat it without yoshi by jumping on top of the key which you can stand on and press B and Y at the same time. do it correctly and you'll jump off of the key and still have the key in hand and you can make it to the key hole before you touch the next set of blocks.
I personally don't think Yoshi and the Cape Feather should count when you destroyed or touched blocks using them. The Cape is away from your body when you spin to hit blocks and Yoshi is a separate entity,he's touching them,not Mario. All that said I really enjoyed the video and hope to see more in the future!
I can get behind the no block movement. But I think we are losing our morals by normalizing touching those nasty, ugly coins. At one point I saw 87 coins in the counter and had to fan myself in fear of fainting!
@Nicobbq: in Donuts plain secret 1, if you go in the bonus room first you can get a koopa shell, to hit the ? mark containing the key, and since the p-switch would be activated, the key will fall throught the coins, there for the key will not remain on the block.
Technically YOU don't touch blocks when you get on yoshi. YOSHI touches the blocks. So yes, it IS possible to beat mario world without touching a single block.
first coins now blocks, what thing will you not touch next? enemies? foreground sprites? or will you take this idea to other games, like tloz, Kirby, Splatoon, etc?
You can use the p switch in 1-2 to turn that block into a coin. Yoshi will fall through onto the ground, and you can collect him without touching a block
Technically if you got Yoshi he would touch the block not you so technically it is 100% possible to beat Super Mario World with Mario never touching a block.
(0:32) Actually, the mushroom is set to pop out when you walk by that bush, and is not related to the midpoint. In addition, if you touch the midpoint bar while small, you automatically become super, so you didn't have to play Yoshi's Island 1 just to get that mushroom. (However, that mushroom could be put into your reserve item box if you're already big when you grab it, so it's not totally useless.) (1:31) Aw, nuts. With the turn block bridges counting as blocks, it looks like Yoshi's Island 3 is totally impossible for this challenge. (2:34) Welp, Lunar Magic calls those objects "wooden blocks", so... that's a problem. (2:43) Okay, if they're not listed in the Mario Wiki, let's just go with that. (3:27) D'oh! And it's too bad the springboard is the only carriable item that cannot hit blocks for you, and there's no other way to get through without hitting them yourself. (3:59) For this key block, you can just get a Koopa shell from the P-balloon bonus room in that level and bring it here, allowing you to hit the block without touching it. (4:25) Argh, a bazillion ice blocks! And you need to touch at least a few of them to beat this boss... (4:44) Oh, geez... Yeah, Star World 1 has like a googolplex blocks. Let's... not go there. (5:02) Yeah, you're far better off going through #2 Morton's Castle. (5:36) The vine block in Vanilla Dome 2 can be hit with a Buzzy shell as well. No need to touch it yourself. (5:49) Nuts, this one's unavoidable. (6:07) Welp, #3 Lemmy's Castle is an automatic failure. (6:38) Star World 3 is also an automatic failure. Man, these blocks just hate you today... (6:43) You could grab the P-switch below and bring it up to toss at the key block, saving you 1 block touch. (7:26) Oh, man! It's orb glitch time! I was wondering if you'd pull out that trick. (7:57) You don't have to actually physically touch Yoshi's block. Either clear the level first and then jump on Yoshi and start+select out before you land on the block itself (which requires good timing), or use the P-switch at the very end of the level to turn Yoshi's block into a coin. (To get the P-switch out of its turn block cage, bring a shell from earlier in the level to that spot.) (8:51) Actually, the orb triggers the normal exit, and you need the secret exit from Star World 3 to proceed that way. (Also, the way you showed it there, you're walking on a bunch of blocks during the victory march, and I personally would count those. Furthermore, if you wanted Star World 3's normal exit with as few block touches as possible, just Yoshi jump at the start, steal Lakitu's cloud like before, and ride it to the goal.) (9:42) Pfft... Got scrolled off the screen during the peace pose, instantly killing you. (9:49) Also, these blocks are completely avoidable without the orb glitch, if you get a blue Yoshi from Star World 2, and then have him eat one of the many Koopas flying around the level to give him wings. (9:56) LOL, nice colors. Yeah, that can happen if you're just off-screen during the circle fade out at the end of the victory march. (10:11) Uh, oh... I don't think this is doable without hitting that ON/OFF block, so it's orb glitch time again. (10:21) Wait, you jumped from a cement block to do the orb glitch there! However, I can see a way to do it without touching a block by spin jumping off of the rotating mace (or by cape flying), so I'll give that one a pass. (11:00) You can also "key jump", by pressing the jump and grab buttons at the same time while standing on the key. This'll cause you to grab the key while jumping from where it was, without touching one of the blocks below it. (11:48) Change that big red NO to a big green YES, because as I mentioned above, there are ways to get that Yoshi without touching his block. (11:57) Also, with the angle you mounted Yoshi there, I wanna say you actually did avoid touching that block at all anyway!
Could you hit yoshi with a koopa shell to panic him so he runs off the block? That might allow you to do the entire run without touching a single block
nicobbq in 2024: I beat super Mario 3 without touching the controller. nicobbq in 2026: I beat Super Mario World without putting the cartridge in my snes nicobbq in 2028: I beat super Mario 3 without using any electricity
I once tried to beat Super Mario world without using a normal jump just spin jumps and I managed to get all the way to bowsersonly to lose because I need normal jumps for the koopa toys
Not gonna lie this challenge is kind of dumb touching the Yoshi doesn’t mean touching the block I’m sorry but how does touching Yoshi mean touching the goddamn block I know Yoshi is touching the block but are we playing as him know well I mean when you do go on Yoshi he is touching the blocks but this challenge wouldn’t be possible anyways but whatever any Mario game is impossible without touching blocks I don’t know that’s just my opinion
0:57 -- Have you tried using the P-switch near the end of the level to turn the brown block into a coin? You could then ride Yoshi that way!
3:56 -- There are Parakoopas in this level's side area. You can grab a shell from one and use it to hit the block instead!
Creative actually!
@@maksimry6660 Thanks for the compliment! It always helps to think outside the box. 😊
So, yes it is possible to beat Super Mario World without touching a block! Using the P-switch on that level and the orb glitch.
@@SheepStar8 My thoughts exactly! 😉
Humongous brain
So, it is possible! Maybe a follow-up video/short is underway?
This whole "without touching" has come really far. Good job Nico!
Yes
The not touching Yoshi thing kind of triggered me
hole without touching
Yes but he touched 6 blocks on the First World 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀💀
You play BTD 6 cool
To further back up the "This isn't a Block" argument, in Mario Maker, it's considered Ground, not a Block.
Yeah, that’s what I was thinking.
I loved when Nico said "it's orbing time" and orbed all over those levels
Got our pickaxe swinging from side to side
Side, side to side!
This task, a grueling one
Hope to find some diamonds to night, night ,night, diamonds tonight
Does anyone even remember that song or is that just me no kidding
@@charlieasalgadosalgado1369 you would think they knew if they're singing it (you broke the chain D: )
In 1-2, what if you brought a koopa shell to the end, hit the block containing the p-switch, brought it all the way back, and used the p-switch to get Yoshi off the block?
Precisely what I was thinking! 😉
SMB3 without touching a block would probably be really hard
Nathaniel bandy actually did that a few years back
@@christiansantiago5330 Nathaniel Bandy touched multiple music blocks!
@@maksimry6660 idk why he did not count those
Here’s my top 5 reasons why Nico is NOT cringe and it’ no particular order
1: he is an epic gamer he beats video games in super hard ways a cringe person can’t do that
2: he have tons of views on RUclips regardless of likes or dislikes he still dose videos and never guives up a cringe person would guive up with too many dislikes
3: he does epic videos
He is always a great person to watch A cringe person cannot do videos as good and epic as those
4: he always listen to his fans when fans asks him to do some kind of video he dose that a cringe person would only do stuff using it’s own mind and wouldn’t listen
5: he is a good person he someone who is worthy of having a wife in the future he would never get that if he is cringe by looks
Good job nico keep up the good work

0:57 But you’re not on a block. Yoshi’s on a block.
*Yoshi has failed the challenge*
I like these block challenges. I think Nathaniel Bandy did one in SMB3 but I would love to see more.
I love it when people say "I think" a RUclipsr did something because just go to the channel and see if they did it!
weirdly i just completed this game yesterday for the first time ever and I love it.
I personally don't think Yoshi and the Cape Feather should count when you destroyed or touched blocks using them. The Cape is away from your body when you spin to hit blocks and Yoshi is a separate entity,he's touching them,not Mario. All that said I really enjoyed the video and hope to see more in the future!
But Mario touches a block on the title screen, guess it's impossible :P
Just start the game before he touches it
I can get behind the no block movement. But I think we are losing our morals by normalizing touching those nasty, ugly coins. At one point I saw 87 coins in the counter and had to fan myself in fear of fainting!
The creeper reference at the beginning just awakened a hidden memory.
Now that'll be kind of hard
@Nicobbq: in Donuts plain secret 1, if you go in the bonus room first you can get a koopa shell, to hit the ? mark containing the key, and since the p-switch would be activated, the key will fall throught the coins, there for the key will not remain on the block.

I love these challenges!
Same!
@@GrandpaPuppetGuy550 they are just so entertaining to watch
@@LucaGamingYT They are!
@@GrandpaPuppetGuy550 wait have you seen my channel?
@@LucaGamingYT I just did
I love how the creeper didn't even blow him up, he just decided he hated creepers so much that all blocks suck
I like the Without Touching series. The rewind parts are really cool. Nice.
When you grab that Yoshi, you aren't touching the block. As long as you hold a direction, you'll avoid touching the block he's standing on.
You did not touch the Yoshi block, Yoshi did, so you beat the game without touching a block.
The burning question is can Nico beat a game without touching a controller
This turned from a try not to challange to a block count video faster than Mario can ditch Yoshi in the lava. Lol.
Technically, yoshi was touching the block in 1-2, so it is possible.
Everybody gangster till the world is a cube
first coins now blocks, what thing will you not touch next? enemies? foreground sprites? or will you take this idea to other games, like tloz, Kirby, Splatoon, etc?
For some of the blocks that you touched, it was only your cape touching them, not exactly you.
That made me think back to when Nico showed us how to defeat Bowser _without touching Bowser_ (using Super Mario Maker 2 items and power-ups).
Glad to see Nico slowly but surely making a new series for his channel
Don't mind me. I'm just over here filling a cardboard box with blocks to mail to Nico.
You can use the p switch in 1-2 to turn that block into a coin. Yoshi will fall through onto the ground, and you can collect him without touching a block
Love the CaptainSparklez reference at the beginning
Technically, your cape isn't you. So you can spin to hit blocks because you aren't hitting them, your cape is.
Nico: at the beginning coins are my enemies now blocks are my enemies
If yoshis on a block, you get on yoshi, then YOSHI (NOT mario) will touch block
Technically if you got Yoshi he would touch the block not you so technically it is 100% possible to beat Super Mario World with Mario never touching a block.
DEFINETLY didn’t comment in the first minutes of the video because you still have to touch a couple of blocks…
Bro was in creative mode and spawned the creeper himself 💀
All seriousness aside, a very cool and funny intro
There also exists a credits warp glitch as well in Yoshi's Island 2.
Wouldn’t getting Yoshi be ok since it’s him touching the block and not you or does that defeat the challenge?
Alternative title "How many blocks can we touch in Super Mario World"
Wow! Such a cool video! It even has a backstory! Lol
In my opinion hitting a block with the cape feather dosent count, as it’s just a cape and your not attualy touching it

The turn block bridges are called Stretch Blocks
Soooo It's Impossible To beat Super Mario World Without Touching a Single Block, But At least you can Beat it *With* Touching a Single Block
0:52 cursed red koopa
Gets Ptsd from blocks*
Decides to play super Mario world to relax*
Soon it'll be time to do Mayro's SMM2 levels and make people complain again that it's not the original SMB xD
Could you hit yoshi with a koopa shell to panic him so he runs off the block? That might allow you to do the entire run without touching a single block
this wont work
when he played minecraft he was on creative and he could not get hitted and the creepper could not explode,but i get the joke,anyways,great video!
Technically, every single tile in the game is a block-it's just that some are interactive and others are just there, so yeah...
That one block shouldn’t count, you aren’t hitting it with Mario!

These intros oh my gosh are soooooo funny 😂 great content Nico
Technically Yoshi isn't YOU, so Yoshi can touch a block, but not you.
I think the mushes are coming out of the bushes when you run past them.
He did The improbable
I once tried to beat Super Mario world without using a normal jump just spin jumps and I managed to get all the way to bowsersonly to lose because I need normal jumps for the koopa toys
Creeper awww maaan
Lowkey feel like the yoshi block doesn't really count since you/yoshi didn't stand on the block when you got on his back
When Nico says creeper aw man
Side side to side
The ad I got before I watched this video was a bald man talking about a bad mobile game one punch man
Creeper? Aw man!
So we back in the mine got a pickaxe swinging from side to side side side to side
Yoshi is touching the block, NOT MARIO!!!! ( BRUUUUUUUUH )
The ground is technically a block too lol
Now the don't touch a single block is the new don't touch a single coin hail yeah
I still don't get why you can't get Yoshi. Because YOSHI is touching the block, NOT YOU/MARIO. So that shouldn't count.
if you didn't see Nico's Mario movie trailer reaction then you can see it in this playlist: ruclips.net/p/PLUAnvPk4nJi-oqdMn414zHZWcYDI2slBu
Can you try SMW but normal jumping isn't allowed? That would be a nice challenge.
So we back in the mine
It is possible to beat the game, just use the credits warp!
I love watching these videos knowing damn right I was never skilled enough to even pass world 2 in super mario bross 🤣
If you ride yoshi, then he's the one touching the blocks.

It would be cool if you do this by other games. New Super Mario Bros could be interesting because of this.
All becuase of a creeper... HOW DARE YOU?!?!?!?!? THIS VIDEO IS A THREAT TO SOCIETY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My thought was heard. Now i`m happy.
Nico, meet ground blocks.
Nico you can do a glitch in yoshi house would give you a feather
Dude you touched a Grey block every time you set up the orb glitch!!!
Maybe you angry because a Creeper spawned, NICO! ( BRUH )
You could've saved a block if you got yoshi costing one block then skipped over the two blocks an 1:20
Thank you Nico for making good content 😤
I wonder why you put the pouting face...
@@maksimry6660 Some platforms call it a "Face with Look of Triumph".
I guess so it was just weird that they put the pouting face for that comment!
Try to beat Super Mario World 3 without touching a single block… oh wait
How about without touching enemies? Fire on Koopas/Reznor?
2:51 Those things are
*F L O O R S* not blocks
Play super Mario world without touching red just like bowser’s fury and super Mario 3d land
