None of the runs shown in the the following 50 minutes have problems with this.until near the end of the video, when a world record pace run by cyghfer from early 2021 was ruined when he died to the Alien after failing a risky strategy caused him to take contact damage. Chekhov's Gun: At the beginning of "The History of Mega Man 2 World Records", Salt mentions that making contact with the final boss, the Alien, deals massive damage to the player.Catchphrase: "This is the history of (game name/subject).".There's also a mention of a Dino Dino Jungle shortcut that has not yet been used to save time. In fact, at the time of the video's release, only one runner, Mathii, had ever managed to use the trick to save any time, and even then, only by a hundredth of a second for everyone else, this "shortcut" actually takes longer than just driving normally. Awesome, but Impractical: "The Hidden Shortcuts of Mario Kart: Double Dash!!" ends by explaining the Wario Colosseum shortcut, which is very difficult to pull off for only a tiny time save.From the Portal episode onward the audio from his videos took a leap in quality.

So yeah, apparently game breaking bugs exist in Wii Sports now, and speedrunners are walking on water to get better scores in their golf game. It’s a major discovery, and something that completely changes the speedrunning scene for Wii Sports forever.

This then tricks the game into thinking you’re on the fairway regardless of what surface you’re actually on, whether that be in water, out of bounds or even on the side of a cliff.Īs a result, you’re then able to take massive shortcuts, and skip across things like water rather than having to hit your ball round or over it. By disconnecting your Wiimote during a golf shot, your character apparently enters a weird ‘disconnected’ state, and can input another hit during the same shot by reconnecting. On February 18th 2021, a new game breaking glitch was discovered in Wii SportsĪnd it doesn’t disappoint either. You know it’s gonna be a good one when this rare sentence comes up right off away:
