Super Metroid impossible: the only speedrun where you actually have time to hear the boss music properly

I love it, like when he did it on the Pepsi Man run few events back.

I absolutely adore how the crowd is on the edge of their collective seat the entire run. The gasp, they cheer, they chant the runner's name, there's just so much honest hype, it just makes you smile.

Okay, putting the varia suit behind Ridley at the deepest depths of Zebes is like the perfect troll

This was one of the top 3 runs if not #1 for me for AGDQ 2020. I stayed up late to watch this. INCREDIBLE run. Couch commentary from poo bear was a great touch, even if he’s not a Metroid runner. You don’t always need runners from the same game on the couch, just great personalities.

Better late than never!

I watched like the first 20 minutes of this run, and stopped it so i could play Impossible myself blind(the rest of the way). I made it to that room after Wrecked Ship but right before Maridia where you have to kinda bomb yourself literally above the screen? I got past it, but not without watching the rest of the run to see where the heck to go next. Then i decided to quit when i saw that wall jump part where he tried getting everyone to honk for every jump. THEN, i decided i WILL finish mastering all the speedrun skills after his perseverence through Ridley(and i swear to god i heard him say 'RiPley' unironically, shame on you!) So thank you, OatsnGoats, for introducing me, supporting me, deterring me and finally inspiring me to (eventually) play and beat this rom hack. And of course, mostly thank you for all you've done for GDQ, healthcare and speedrunning in general! (ps, in case anyone was curious, a lot of the rooms oats doesn't go to, there's just either trolls or nothing there. Like paths will be sealed off, one e-tank location had the e-tank, but it was just a collapsable block with an e-tank sprite painted on it, stuff like that.)

The only problem for me is than it loses originality after the phantoon fight

I know it's a pretty basic choice, but Super Metroid is my favorite speed game (mostly because it's my favorite game period lol) and seeing the main event of the biggest speedrun marathon in the world be a unique take on my favorite game to play AND to watch makes me so, so happy. Love GDQ, Love Super Metroid, wish I had a chance to see it live.

That was a RAMBO level of complexity. I got speechless with Ridley fight. The precise moonwalks and shots, damn bro

One of my favourite GDQ runs. One of those ones where all the elements of the great crowd, game skill, knowledgeable commentary and humour all come together for a beautiful almost 3 hours. Big ups Oats

“How many people have beat this” “one” bruh

18:11 3 million dollar mark passed 43:49 New record

This game is true NIGHTMARE. An amazing run, 200 minutes of hyper-stressful action...GREAT!

Thanks, KZread algorithm, for reminding me how much I love SM speedruns even though it's been like two years since I watched one.

This is such a great run. Between the rapport on the couch, the sheer talent oats is displaying, and breaking that record. What a showcase.

Amazing! Probably the most entertaining closing to a GDQ event. Bravo to the runner and thanks for the people involved in making this happen!

This was such a blast! Absolutely my favorite run in the whole event. Awesome performance and interesting commentary! This was so amazing

I love the very genuine camaraderie coming from the couch. Andy going over and giving Oats a massage to loosen him up after a couple of tough Ridley fights was particularly heartwarming.

At first I was put off by this run cause it was a mod and not the actual Super Metroid. But after a while I finally decided to watch it and man am I glad I did. This was the best GDQ run I've seen in a long time.

And now, Its Super Metroid Possible.

Holy shit. One of the best speed runs I’ve ever seen.

This is some incredible gameplay, props to the runner and his chill commentary.

That was quite the great combination of crowd, hosts/commenters, and runner. Really entertaining from all sides.

36:40 That jacket is sweet

This just gave me 2 hours, 23 minutes and 42 seconds of anxiety.

Really nice of Samus herself to take some time to donate after one of the deaths at Ridley

Super entertaining run! Races and modded classic games are the two things i look forward to the most during GDQ. Really helps keep things feeling fresh while still showing off the classics.

Oats is a bloody machine, that was amazing

In 10 years we’ve raised over 21 million dollars for cancer

This is my favorite speed run, I could watch this over and over again

This was just so cool and so incredible. MUCH respect.

Super Metroid: If you’re nothing without the suit then you don’t need it.

Funny enough I had heard of you guys but never paid much attention due to lack of cash but like the goal you do. Then I randomly found Andy on KZread and started watching loads of his content. Started to hear names like Oats but honestly had no idea who was good or not, etc. Now I watch this and it is nuts. So much content but I don't have the time for everyone! You guys rock though! :D

GrandPoohBear's runs are usually funny, all the Super Mario World and Mario Maker races and stuff. ZFG's OoT runs are usually really good too. Well, they tend to go bad at GDQs, but this year's one was top. The glitch exhibitions are always cool as well. The Tetris stuff from the last few years has been awesome (none this GDQ unfortunately).

Such an amazing run by an incredible runner. Well played Oats!!

This was an amazing run to watch

Amazing run, that took some major skill!

Fantastic run guys! Couldn’t be more proud of GDQ. Thank you.

Game này mình xem hoài không thấy chán cảm ơn nhà phát hình video clip này rất có ý nghĩa một thời tuổi thơ

What an awesome run! Congrats to GDQ and all the wonderful runners for the ten years (a bit later). You all are an inspiration.

Amazing final run for an amazing event

Just wanted to say you guys are really amazing! Thank you for always putting on an amazing show and supporting all the charities. Much love from Los Angeles!

i love seeing how the gaming community comes together for such a good cause! I want to go to the next GDQ

Such an awesome run! Great job dude

Best runner, crew, commentators and crowd I've ever seen, so much momentum and skill, the deserved last run, keep your good stuff up

So glad that around 2 and a half years after the last in person GDQ run, we're finally getting them back in a few days.

What a legend, great speedrun!!!!

It's a shame spore spawn isn't fought more often. 2nd best theme in SM aside from Brinstar Depths IMO

Ngl, his jacket was pretty swag. :)

GrandPOOBear is such a charisma machine, he can bring hype to any crowd. Love that guy.

it is an honor to finish GDQ with this level of racing and in metroid. Congratulations for your achievement!!

I just wanted to say that this is a game (that is, Super Metroid, not this hack) I beat normally with ~80% completion in 2hrs 14 minutes, and this is well beyond the sort of screwing around I've ever gotten up to (I'm not a speedrunner and have never even seen half these tricks). Amazing skill, Oats!

Enjoyable run to watch, thanks Oats.

Very fun to watch👑 You make a difference.

Watching this just reminds of how much of a true masterpiece Super Metroid was in the SNES era. A truly epic journey.

awesome run and awesome situation there

My absolute favourite run of all time for GDQ. Oats became my favourite speed runner this day.

Rewatching this in May 2020, Poo's joke about people calling in sick/"working from home" to watch GDQ hits a LOT different now.

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooow I get it. I was like "why the heck are people cheering at seemingly random stuff during a boss fight?" Then I saw how close they were to 3 mil! :D

Your rate for collecting items is 46% See you next mission!

Speaking of the internal battery dying, I had a copy of Zelda 1 that had a bad battery. It was really sad, but I just got good enough to finish the game in one sitting.

"RNG manipulation" reminds me of a VERY old trick: in the original Space Invaders arcade game, the number of shots you fired affected how many points you got from shooting flying saucers!

That was incredible, Oats rule !

Beginning of the video: cheering Me: I can’t hear you, step it up!

Awesome run. I was on the tip of my seat of 2 hours.
