(WORLD RECORD/FIRST SUB 7!!!) Super Mario 64 1 Star Speedrun in 6:58.35
Super Mario 64 is almost 30 years old and in 2021 it turned 25 along with Nintendo 64, but there are still users competing to see who can reach the credits faster.
This has led speedrunner Suigi -as seen in the video- to set a new world record in the 1-Star category with a time of 6:58.3; the previous record was 7:03.57, which was also Suigi’s.
Many fans and speedrunners have been stunned and elated by the result, but at the same time thoughtful that this ridiculous time will deter others from trying to beat him.
As fast as Sonic and on time at the castle
“Absolutely insane run,” said Splax77 on the speedrun subreddit. “He is not unbeatable, but below 7 was the barrier of the final minute and this is going to kill any motivation in the category.”
User imwaytopunny wrote: “He’s pretty close to unbeatable (to be honest), especially by anyone other than Suigi”; But they are not the only ones who think the same…
“This is the first truly wrong WR I’ve seen in Mario 64,” said Secure_Molasses_8504. “It will be very difficult for anyone to find the motivation to try to beat him.”
And similarly ta2 commented: “People are going to keep competing for a while, but it would take inhuman luck along with perfect execution to top him this time.
I wouldn’t be surprised if this record stands forever.” For these and other reasons we’re going to have to wait and see if Suigi or another player breaks it or not.
It is clear that the crazy new speedrun and record in Super Mario 64 It’s going to stay unbeatable for a while, but forever?
