The skips are cool but dang when he's racing "normally" is the most impressive. I'd say next gdq should have two of these top runners competing in two-player mode

Yes I love SummoningSalts videos. He’s the one who got me interested in speed running. Even if it’s a game I don’t know he makes it interesting!

Honestly, I appreciate it so much when things go wrong in a run during marathons and the runners just go with it instead of being like "uhhh what is happening". Good runner, good couch, fun watch!

And honestly, the result is great. The time would net him a Top 10 in this category, and beat every single one of the couch members. That's talent! He is so good at the game that most people who attempted this game can't beat a marathon run of him with bad RNG.

Holy shit the vid started with the run it’s a miracle!!!

Also the last couple of vod sets have been much better edited to where there isn't 10 minutes of dead air. Nice job by whoever is responsible for these vods

This is my favorite Mario Kart game. The physics are just awesome.

Time ends when I cross the finish line... time stopper you had one job lol

I actually gain respect for the runners when things go wrong as it shows just how hard it can be to execute and how luck plays a role.

Amazing run. Always great to see all the shortcuts and tricks. Nice commentary. Keep on going👍

Watch Summoning Salt' video on it if you haven't already!! I was rewatching it just moments ago and saw this GDQ in the recommended list underneath.

:D So happy to see Abney on GDQ :3

I wonder if dragging the banana reduces lag because it doesn't do the animation for the exhaust, which is probably harder to render than the static banana animation.

23:15 for your answer at least for the point screen! So I’m assuming they have to know if it reduces lag while driving, which my guess is no since he drops bananas a lot during this run!

Abney and weatherton this two legends in one session still in 2019. This is entertainment!

A banana is a static image, it covers a moving image which needs to update with the frame rate, so that could be why it reduces lag, but still strange concept!

The couch team really made this awesome, the runner was great!

this is the first time i watch Mario Kart 64 speedrun and i have to say it's awesome!

I remember when this first came out I finished this in like an hour and I thought I was the best player ever.

Damn, the legend himself. Cool!

Awesome!

Is it weird that Banshee Boardwalk is one of my favorite Mario Kart courses? Both the original & the MKDS remake.

Always nice to see the god of Mario Kart 64 in action.

Its crazy. Because just a couple months ago I also hopped on the second jump at Wario Raceway. I had the exact same reaction. lol

who's this hattok guy? is he a professional speedrunner?

23:13 I wonder if they lower the quality of the model if it's a certain distance from the camera. Like they did with Mario's model in Mario 64.

Nice to see a Mario Kart speed run where there are actual skips and tricks being performed instead of somebody just playing Mario Kart like the past few years

When its zoomed out wouldnt it perform better due to smaller renders of objects? thats all i could think of

hey, give the dude the trophy at the end, camera man. he deserves something for the run.

rise up gamesters

Awesome

Does anybody else still use the turbo drifting technique from this game in every single Mario Kart released afterwards? I only recently learned that I don't have to mash the control stick back and fourth for power sliding in Mario Kart Deluxe. :(

The first Mario Kart where you don't have to mash your stick to drift was Mario Wart Wii, I guess they made that decision because Nintendo wanted a more accessible game, or probably because they knew about the snaking technique from Mario Kart DS.

Well, yeah, his name is Koopa in Japanese. The Koopa Troop is just named the Kame-ichizoku, or Turtle Tribe, in the original Japanese, with Koopa Troopas themselves being name Nokonoko. The English translation of SMB1 changed all this for whatever reason - likely because Bowser sounds a lot more threatening than Koopa, and naming his army of Koopa Troopas the Koopa Troop is a lot slicker than just trying to use their original names in English - and it's just stuck forever.

damn even in this 20+ year old game there's rubberband. I really wish there was a way to turn it off (at least in for fun races) just so there would be more Competition between the AI in each race. It's always the same 2 on top and the same 2-4 on the last few ranks, at least in the Mario Karts I've played. I generally dislike Rubberband and I understand why it's a thing but that doesn't Change my opinion about it. lol.
