it was my favorite all time power up in the mario series... but watching this video it's odd how what I thought I remembered isn't true. I thought i recall Mario tucked in the shell would avoid some of damage such as the lasers from the Bowser statues.
(1:58) As long as that single hammer overlaps Boom Boom for at least 5 frames, since fireballs would defeat him in 5 hits. (2:37) The normal cannonballs seem to have special programming involving them, and that unfortunately does not include a vulnerability to hammers. (3:16) Hey, that's not what the king normally says if you beat a Koopaling with the Hammer Suit. He actually says: "Hey you! How about lending me your clothes? No dice?! What a drag." (7:02) Oh, what? Actually, Hammer Mario can indeed ride in Kuribo's Shoe normally, _unless_ you're using the Game Genie code (XNKXGLIE) that permanently keeps you in Hammer Mario form (which I believe you are, since you stayed as Hammer Mario whenever you took damage elsewhere in the video). (8:56) Yeah, I already know that you can KO Bowser with hammers. Since fireballs defeat Bowser with 35 hits, you just have to have hammers overlap him for 35 frames, which can be done easily with just a few hammers depending on your aim. (9:14) The number of hammers required varies depending on how long they overlap Bowser, so it won't necessarily take 6 hammers. Perhaps you should see what an invincibility star can kill next.
Once I realized the hammer could take out most enemies the fireball couldn't, I got curious and abused save states to get to Bowser with the hammer suit. Holy crap, that fight is LAUGHABLY easy with hammers. He can't hit you if stay under the doorway and chuck hammers at him from below.
In one of the levels, a Giant ? Block contains a Hammer Bro suit. If you collect it while sliding on the nearby... slide, you will actually continue sliding and a never-otherwise-used sprite of Hammer Mario sliding appears.
Heh, I tested out a lot of this stuff with SMB3 and a Game Genie back in the early '90's. :) About Boom-Boom and Bowser, how many hammers can take them out depends on what angle the hammers pass through them. Depending on the angle, you could score one or multiple hits with a single hammer.
Also Darby you should do a video about chain chomps because I bet a lot of people don't know about this, but if you stand next to a chain chomp and wait like 140 seconds or so he will eventually break loose from the chain and become a chain less chomp running wildly across the screen. Probably the most scariest enemy to encounter lol.
@@BlueTelevisionGames Be careful, make sure to test for both "thwack"s and divebombs. Also, you can only divebomb grounded enemies, so Floating Evil Green Toxic Noxious Spherical Slimy Acid Ghost Bubble Of Doom is safe for the most part.
It’s probably one those “damages every frame of collision” programming choices that some older games used to do, and just happens to collide for more than one frame for that toss?
Technically Hammer Mario can slide but you would have to pull off a trick for that plus there are unused sprites for this action that are seen when the trick is pulled off.
@@BlueTelevisionGames What, exactly, do you mean by “…pulled the switcharoo…”? Also, I initially thought, that, you were playing The United States Of America Revision / PAL Version Of Super Mario Brothers 3, but, I, unfortunately, was completely wrong.
I think when you defeat a koopaling and you get rewarded by a different king the king would say something different, I found that out from beating lemmy with the hammer suit and the king said something different.
I'm not sure if this is true or not never opportunity to test it because because was pointless at least to me since I could get past them in the level fairly easily. But I've heard if you were to wait by a hammer brother in Super Mario Brothers one long enough and not do anything??? . Not try to to get pass them or shoot them with fireballs or anything at all again??? Supposedly if you stay by them long enough without doing anything just staying there of course not with the game on pause. That eventually the hammer Brothers will actually stop their normal actions and Chase Mario. Haven't played Super Mario Brothers and years and years and I'd heard that after I'd stop playing so I couldn't test it since didn't have it available! Does anyone know if this is true or not or a video on this or that has as mentioned in it! And also in Super Mario World that giant Boo is actually killable!
9:19 - Darby, this reminds of The Fake Bowsers from the original Super Mario Brothers, if you land six Fire Flower fireballs on the first seven Bowsers in the game, you find out, that, they are just regular Koopa Troop minions in disguise.
4:16 - Darby, why, exactly, is this version of The Meme Impact Font not the version with the black outline? The font is worse that way, isn’t it? Rhetorical question, yes, yes, it is worse.
I consider Hammer suit to be the more offensive-based counterpart to the statue-transforming Tanooki Suit. And there have been reasons the hammer suit didn't return for later Mario games... What ARE they thinking when they make Boom Booms get defeated in just one hit, Koopalings being unaffected, and then the king himself can be defeated with 6 hammer hits? ...and these hammers put out even the most annoying or otherwise undefeatable enemies such as Thwomps down in a single hit? ...we will never know the truth behind the logic
I guess they didn't want to overpower Mario and the hammer suit. It's kinda like how Capcom did with MegaMan 2 and the Metal blade was overpowered so by the third game they made the shadow blade less powerful.
There technically exists a sliding sprite as Hammer Mario, but triggering it deactivates the pipes, costing a player a life via timeout. You basically have to slide down a slope and collect the Hammer Suit power up at the same time and then pause the game once you’ve done it.
It is so wierd what Hammer Mario and Tanuki Mario can kill that the other can't. The Hammer can kill more unkillable things, but at least the Tanuki can ride in Shoes, slide, and fly. And the Koopalings are immune but Bowser isn't!? That's wild
You used the Game Genie code, "Start and Stay as Hammer Mario", didn't you? What's infamous about those "Start and Stay as" codes is that once you defeat Bowser, you get locked into Bowser's Time Trap!...and also, for some reason, the screen turns pink whenever you grab one of the wands from one of the Koopalings after you defeat them.
I believe the hammer hits equate to 3 fireball hits, you can here the hits stacking when they connect, so bowser takes 6 hammers, the equivalent of ~18 fireballs
I don't like to share this maybe by saying this, others will find strength in it.... Ive been in therapy due to Hammer Mario not being able to slide. It keeps me up at night.
It's actually really surprising that you can't kill the koopalings with hammers, given that it kills Bowser himself and pretty much every other enemy in the game that can't be killed by other means. I would've expected the hammer to work the same way fireballs do on the koopalings, but requiring less of them.
It must be a glitch that you can't kill the koopalings. Also I'm not sure if you added that message from the king or if it's different between regions, but the message I get is: 'hey can I borrow your clothes? No dice? What a drag...'

Can you do another super Mario maker video 🥲
Early
Because i have a nintendo 3ds
I always loved the rare and unique Hammer suit. It felt so mythical to get as a kid back on the NES.
it was my favorite all time power up in the mario series... but watching this video it's odd how what I thought I remembered isn't true. I thought i recall Mario tucked in the shell would avoid some of damage such as the lasers from the Bowser statues.

i agree with 3:16 100% done it with every Koopaling.
I managed to get to Bowser legit with the Hammer suit, years ago, and beat him. Never forgot that.
Fun fact: you can get the hammer suit in your inventory from a powerup house in the giant world. I used this to get to Bowser when I was like 10
@@AURush95 Is that the one that requires a rock-breaking hammer from another world that I would never remember to save?
@@three-quartersbadger2929 haha, yes I think that is the one. It's been a very long time but that sounds right
I did once, too. It was hilarious HOW he got defeated.
Gg
Fun fact: if you allow stomping, Hammer Bro. Mario can destroy precisely every enemy that Invincible Mario can, and vice-versa.
Once I realized the hammer could take out most enemies the fireball couldn't, I got curious and abused save states to get to Bowser with the hammer suit. Holy crap, that fight is LAUGHABLY easy with hammers. He can't hit you if stay under the doorway and chuck hammers at him from below.
That’s awesome
So basically the tanooki and hammer suit are two of the best. Imagine Hammer Luigi and Tanooki Mario fighting through levels on the same screen.
In one of the levels, a Giant ? Block contains a Hammer Bro suit. If you collect it while sliding on the nearby... slide, you will actually continue sliding and a never-otherwise-used sprite of Hammer Mario sliding appears.
Cool

Hammer suit is the coolest thing in any mario game

The hammer suit is basically makes mario a powerful being.
Yes. It's overpowered a bit, but also awesome.
Ur right it's awesome
But as like every OP powerup there is cons, like idk
Oh gorby mac torty lorenzo trench buck

About Boom-Boom and Bowser, how many hammers can take them out depends on what angle the hammers pass through them. Depending on the angle, you could score one or multiple hits with a single hammer.

Yes. That would be awesome.

3:14 it actually says "Hey you! How about you lend me you clothes! No dice? What a drag" or something like that.
You are correct! I used a Randomizer to throw people off. Good catch!

Radioactive disco waffle balls of death. I love that
haha. Glad you enjoyed it
I just call them disco waffles
THE NAME IS WAFFLES
Call them death balls
I've looked and cannot figure out exactly what the designers were going for. Their Japanese name is "Cookie."
If you hit Bowser just right, it can even take just three hammers to take him down. Has to be in just the right spot though.
I thought I’ve done it faster before
It’s probably one those “damages every frame of collision” programming choices that some older games used to do, and just happens to collide for more than one frame for that toss?
When your only tool is a hammer, every problem looks like a nail
I was about to pass this video up but curiosity got the best of me and I just HAD to find out if Hammer Mario can destroy the Big Bertha fish.
"can" you beat this game with a frog suit 😂
Hammer Mario can slide,you just can only see it if you get the hammer suit while you’re sliding.
Buzzy beats are really dope. Don't hurt them with a hammer.
2:52 - Yes for Koopalings, again.
Thank you. Glad someone pointed that out
@@Treyworld You are welcome.

Technically Hammer Mario can slide but you would have to pull off a trick for that plus there are unused sprites for this action that are seen when the trick is pulled off.
0:54 Actually, when you get the hammer suit while you are sliding, you see hammer mario/luigi's unused hammer slide animation
This is why the hammer bro is at the top of my SMB3 power ups tier list.
It’s so good
Yeah that's when the best power-ups in the game
And I also like the Boomerang no joke can you put that on more videos
Frog mario was close to first though huh.
I love it when he says buzzy beetle is the coolest. LOL

Yes. Pretty fun to get some revenge on them.

That Was Funny
I think when you defeat a koopaling and you get rewarded by a different king the king would say something different, I found that out from beating lemmy with the hammer suit and the king said something different.
Now imagine if them hammers thrown by Mario was actually Thor’s hammer Mjolnir.
The most satisfying hammer kill is killing a thowmp

I used to plug the Game Genie into Super Mario 3, enter the code listed as "Start and Stay as Hammer Mario"..that was some fun time gaming!

Hammer Mario actually can slide, but it involves dark magic.
Hammer Mario was the GOAT from the 8-bit era.
