In the highly anticipated sequel to the critically acclaimed Super Mario 64, Mario and Peach are taking a much-deserved vacation from the so often troublesome Mushroom Kingdom. Only, they quickly find out that there is trouble amuck at their island destination. A culprit has coated the world with goop and paint. Even worse, according to the locals he just happens to look like Mario. Mistaken for the true offender, Mario's would-be vacation instead turns out to be another day on the job as he is convicted of the villain's crimes and is ordered to clean up the world with a water-spewing device that straps to his back, which just happens to add a whole new layer of depth to the usual platforming action.

Here, zelpikukirby ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/zelpikukirby ) & Goldfire ( tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/Goldfire ) use tools to show just how nimble the famed plumber can be. Focusing on revenge rather than reparation, they bring the perpetrator to justice after collecting only 43 shine sprites, leaving plenty of time for Mario and his friends to indulge in the rest and relaxation they originally set out to enjoy.

Note: This run is known to have a sync dependent on both hardware, and graphic settings. If you are having trouble playing back the emulator movie (DTM file), we recommend you watch one of the pre-made encodes instead.

    The fact that he spelled “TAS” with the poison at the beginning was fucking priceless
  • @Illgaia
    "The shine sprites are gone because the island is dirty!" Raccoon in the boathouse has a full 20% of them
  • @Beamo1080
    A solid 20 percent of this tas is showing off during boss downtime
  • @OtherMomo
    1:05:58 before grabbing the shine, take a moment to appreciate the beauty of Isle Delphino's natural waterfalls... okay back to the insanity.

    After an intense hour of island cleaning "Mario...was I....of assiss...tance...*dead*"

    15:45 from the moment he kills petey, he immediately goes off to find the most unnecessarily complex way to get to the ground after collecting the shine sprite as fast as possible
  • Judge: bro you goin’ have to clean up the whole island before you can go home Mario: aight gimme one hour
  • @jacfac9969
    Human runs may be tests of skill but TAS’s are works of art.

    When you get to Bianca Hills before Shadow Mario does
  • This run perfectly demonstrates one of my favorite things about TAS runs. They do things so optimally that often the game can't keep up and the player is left waiting for it to catch up, as after killing Petey the first time. What do the writers of the TAS do with this remaining time? They mess around. Optimally.

    Not only is this an amazing TAS, it's unnecessarily amusing all throughout.
  • @nyaruhyodo989
    This bro just cleaned an entire island faster than I have ever cleaned my room.
