[Discussion] Super Mario Bros. (NES)

LOOOOL I discovered the trick to continue in the world you game over ._. hold , 2 and +

Already discovered that, it's very useful, but I always use the lives trick in 3-1.
Easy and better.

The truth is that I can't do that glitch :$
Hints?

Man 5-4 Is really hard.
The other level similar to that, but easier, was hard for me, so that one is so much hard :S
Please tell me there is not a version of this level, but even harder ._. It's fire everywhere.

Yes, that's the main problem, I'll see what I can do, the record is needed to tie Zimer again :P

For 3-1, let one Koopa fall off or shoot it if you're Fire Flower Mario.
If the other Koopa is about to reach you, jump on it, and you should keep bouncing on it.
If you stop bouncing, just jump on it again.

I tried it to explain the best I could, so here is a video in case if you want to see this video

Lost levels 1-1

So, you don't need to start the whole world over again.
On the All-Stars version of Lost Levels, luckily you can just save to start at example: 1-4.

Everyone on youtube says the glitch on 3-1 is easy but for me is impossible, I only can do it on NSMBWii and on NSMBDS. :S

Are you sure you're big Mario?

Yes

Nice 378 on 4-3!
The jump part right after the checkpoint where you begin is very tricky >_>
I have 377 a long time ago, I'm just submitting it then.

On All-Stars, 378 is easier because you \"accelerate\" a bit faster.

Yeah this is really hard. Is it possible  to do better?

No.

For 2-1, if you're very very good, that great with the avoiding piranha plant, 271 is possible, I also TAS'd that a while ago.

2-1 is a no go for me lol.

Forget 2-1 i slowed down to do the trampoline jump xD and I jump over the pipe with the piranha LOL
Man I almmost did 6-2 I jumped in the left border of the last pipe in the \"stairs\" then I fulled jumped and meet a green paratroopa ._.

I did 365 and know better than 366 is possible

I told you I did 368 without turning back. =P (So much luck man)

I'm starting to hate castles.
Any hints to avoid hammers?

For the hammers, you need to be lucky that Bowser jumps at the right time so you can run under him.
Also, if this isn't the case, there is a small 'gap' between all the hammers you can jump through.

EDIT: I just saw your sweet times you submitted today, good job, I'm not good in those piranha plant-avoid-jumping.

If you want the Master Badge, then, max all records including 8-4, since Zimer doesn't have 8-4 yet :D

Man I'm stuck on 7-4.
This level is really tricky. Not even in the TAS version I'm cehcking on youtube did it :(
Please help.

Yes, that 346 is indeed very tricky.
It's very hard to do it on console, but let me explain it.

After the 'rotating fire' where you need to go down to solve the path, you need to press < for like .5 or something, very few frames, and then continue to jump on the middle platform, and at last on the upper platform.

When you reach Bowser, jump inbetween the hammers, the tricky part is that you must jump well, even a few miliseconds loss for that jump results in 375 so make sure you don't hold 2 for too long. I found out in TAS.

My TAS
And compare what you've seen and perform it on console.

Then, tie or beat Zimer's last 3 untieds for World 8 + 8-4 for Master Badge, good luck!

I'll submit a few records soon, some will be bad but whatever xD

Thanks, now I know the fastest route to the time-trial. My main problem is to know a route for the time-trial.
Thanks a lot for your suport.
I think Deane will upload a video non TAS tomorrow, the same for world 8 levels.

Question:
Can any of world 8 levels be done faster?
