    Check this out, http://homepage3.nifty.com/nura/images/moSMB3.wmv (18MB). May take a while to download if you don't have broadband, but its worth a watch.

    This guy completed Super Mario Bros. 3 in eleven minutes, not going to go into detail but he is simply incredible at the game. I mean, I loved Super Mario Bros. 3 and I played it alot, but I was never THIS good.

    I actually watched this earlier today after I found it on a different forum, it seems to be doing the round at the moment. It's pretty amazing to watch and makes me feel a bit inadequate when I think back to the days it took me to beat this game. Oh and for those people having troubles downloading it from the first link just right click and save as.

    Jayziz that guys a legend. And he managed to get 99 lives aswell. Didnt take one bit of damage :/


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 507 ✭✭✭Roller Toaster


    The cannon ball hopping is truely amazing too.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,005 ✭✭✭CivilServant


    Impressive. Very funny watching him getting all the lives from the cannonballs. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,277 ✭✭✭DiscoStu


    there was another vid a few months back of somone displaying comparable skill finishing mario 1 in about 8 minutes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16 ][Dermington][


    that is truly legendary.....

    almost as legendary as me taking literally 200 tries at getting the invincibility cheat in goldeneye on the N64....the facility on 00 agent in 2:05....

    I failed......i did get the golden gun though....WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

    Thanks Roller Toaster, didn't know what the hell was wrong.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,199 ✭✭✭krattapopov


    haha it is quite the movie alright, how many times do you reckon he played it to be able to get so freaking good!!!! i got if off suprnova.org.... so yeah doin the rounds is right!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,681 ✭✭✭Johnny_the_fox


    omg... that was class

    :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,892 ✭✭✭bizmark


    its not that impressive

    he cheated he didnt clear the game he just cheated

    its impressive how he cleared some levels so fast .....but he DID NOT clear the game just cheated to get to the last group of levels fast


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    That's pretty amazing alright.
    He managed to gain 75 extra lives on that first level in dark world.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,064 ✭✭✭BKtje


    well he didnt cheat did he? He just used the shortcut thingy's. (never really played mario much)

    He obviously didnt finish every level like.

    i always considered a cheat to be something which you cannot get without entering a code or sommet. Anything you use which is 'naturally' in the game isnt a cheat imo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,892 ✭✭✭bizmark


    wither your enter a code or hold on to a turtle shell for 20 second's on the 4th level its all the same

    a code you enter is just as built into the game as the flute cheat

    on saying that its still pritty impressive

    he is quite good at SMB3 .. hats off and all that ..

    but ...

    can he pat his head and rub his tummy AT THE SAME TIME!!!

    That is the true test of amazing brilliance ...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 579 ✭✭✭Da_cOmRaDe_MiKe


    jesus i thought i was a jegend at this. but i guess i was wrong..... i once made it through the game without dying once or even getting hit. ended up with 99 lives and a rake of items..... the game gets boring after that..... no point in replaying it. once youve mastered it you cant go and beat it so i havnt played it in about 5 months....

    BY THE WAY I PLAYED IT FOR LIKE 8 YEARS TO GET TO THAT STAGE!!!

    :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,278 ✭✭✭peterk19


    That bloke is the legend


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 662 ✭✭✭Ba$tard


    Thats pretty damn good. I saw him walk thru some walls, is that allowed with 'specials' or something?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,335 ✭✭✭Cake Fiend


    Watching that makes me cry


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,754 ✭✭✭Big Chief


    was good to watch, pretty impressive and wasted 11 minutes of my working day, win win situation..

    I can remember smb3 being alot harder than that though :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 106 ✭✭Falgorn


    I thought you could only fly when you had the tail? Anyway was very impressive, the guy is practically Neo...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,892 ✭✭✭bizmark


    the guy cheated

    he walked through wall's and was flying !


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,502 ✭✭✭MrPinK


    Download an emulator and play the game. As far as I remember, you DO go through the wall there when you pick up that 1up.


  • Advertisement
  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    Yeah you do go through the wall there.
    It used to happen in the first game too.
    As for flying, once you get the "p" highlighted you can float even without the racoon tail.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,714 ✭✭✭conZ


    This wasn't the same guy that finished Pacman? (finished all 99 level's 99 times, picking up every bonus and eating every enemy?)

    On the MTV Game program (the one that followed yer man that won the Q3 tournament in Dallas) he was on it and said that he is planning his next big thing - that will shock the world.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,680 ✭✭✭Tellox


    am I the only one that cant download this file no matter how hard I try?
    there a link on suprnova that says "mario 3 in 1:10, no deaths", but thats about 500mb..and even though I have BB, theres not a hope in hell I'll dl that

    edit: for anyone else having trouble downloading, theres a working link here:
    http://cheaters.fcksmegood.com/stuff/

    ...change the fcks to...well,add in a U. I'll leave it up to you to decide where.

    I spent hours and hours trying to get that and the invisibility cheat on archives. Never got invincibility but eventually got invisibility :D It was the best day of my life.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 507 ✭✭✭Roller Toaster


    Invincibility just took a lot of luck (the placement of Doctor Doak) to do, there wasn't really much more to it than that other than learning off the perfect "racing line".


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 489 ✭✭Faust


    I still can't get that video i feel like im cursed. Would'nt it be better if he put as much time into curing cancer than trying to finish Mario 3 in 11 minutes??? I guess not.. Finishing Mario 3 in 11 minutes is pretty impressive... I SUPPOSE!!

    supposedly the mario3 video was faked. it was meant to have been done in an emulator and played at a fraction of the normal speed and any mistakes were rewound and done properly over again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,148 ✭✭✭angelofdeath


    i really want to see this, can someone post a working link, save target as doesn't work and the homepage is chinese or something:(

    btw, adnans lol:D

    That was my first though too. Its easily done, but you have to agree that some bits are done with skill (particularly the canonball hopping, and the speed completion of level 1, 2 and 3).
