mmmmm that's hard to say, but like. in terms of tasing they're both pretty much equal, but in terms of actually playing the game i like ntsc better, so overall ntsc is a bit better imo. pal is still cool though

thank you! yeah with week 6 and week 11 especially, i was heavily inspired by eateot f2 and how it kinda fades out towards the end. imo i definitely overused that effect but i'm glad it sounds nice at least HELP

dw that's totally fine! uhhh i explained somewhere else in the replies i think but tl;dr in nes times european games ran at 50 fps and north american/japanese games ran at 60 fps. so nintendo released a separate version of most nes games for europe so they played closer to how they did in north america/japan, which included smb1. in pal smb1 mario runs and falls faster, the framerule timer is slightly changed, etc etc so that the game doesn't feel really slow

In the past, TVs and games consoles were very dependent on the electricity supply in the country they were played in. USA and Japan uses NTSC format, designed for 110V at 60Hz, and European and Australian games use PAL format, designed for 230V at 50Hz. PAL versions of games have a slower frame rate, and if games are poorly designed, will run worse on PAL (but not always). The different speed does allow for some special tricks in speed running. Apart from that, PAL releases will have more languages and other differences to NTSC, to cater for European markets.

Well no shit bozo Edit: So if I don't drink coke or eat pizza apparently it's a fake run. Ok bro, ok.

bismuth made a great video which explains everything about that - czcams.com/video/U7RzoIEoSMY/video.htmlsi=cPABtUUonOtC6foW starting at 10:36 the version he's talking about there is the ntsc version, whereas this is pal, but the concept is still the same for the 4-2 wrong warp

get the nestopia emulator and an smb1 rom file. and then i think you can just drag the rom into the emulator window

the ffpgs in 1-1, 4-1, 8-1, 8-2, and 8-3

technically pal stands for phase alternating line. but basically a lot of europe/asia/oceania has their electric grids running at 50 hz instead of 60 hz like north america/japan. which means games made in japan would run at 5/6 normal speed when played in those regions, so to "fix" that, a separate version of smb1 was made for those 50 hz regions that let it play rouuughly the same as the normal ntsc/60hz version

@@electricpants8196 and I’m guessing the alternate smb timeline you just described is faster?

@@BoinguMcGoingu yeah pal is a little bit faster. 4:51.719 vs the ntsc tas which is 4:54.032

4:55

i'm not sure what you mean? this isn't like a reupload or anything

@@electricpants8196 申し訳ありませんが、ソニック アドベンチャー 2 への言及は理解できると思いました。素晴らしいビデオ

@@lucassezeequiel oh i see, sorry for the misunderstanding! thank you 😁

i dont think its very well documented, but the current world record (5:04 iirc) is certainly very close. so the only way to be faster than ntsc is with ffpg

and actually, even that world record does a form of ffpg in 1-1, so the limit might actually be *slower* than the current wr

:joyous:

i would assume so? honestly i don't really know why it's possible on pal, all i know is that it is

Due to the fact that PAL uses 50hz AC frequency, the game effectively runs as 5/6th speed. Therefore, so make the game not feel "slow" physics values must be changed in order to compensate for the slower speed. For some values, such as Mario's walking, they can be adjusted perfectly. However jumping physics are not exactly the same as on NTSC SMB1, therefore using a specific setup it is possible to grab the flag lower than is possible in NTSC, allowing for FFPG.

What’s wrong with that. Being 65 and liking it I’m 40 ;)

Chiraq has spoken

Lol my kind of 65 year old! 😂

the game is unmodified, it's just the pal version. on top of that this isn't a speedrun in the first place, it's a tool assisted speedrun. i'm not claiming it should go on any official leaderboard

there's quite a few other times i press l+r as well in this tas

Yeah

Yep

Yes

honestly the main reason is that people just don't really care about the pal version LOL even i'm guilty of that, i don't have an actual pb for the pal categories

prob because pal in some parts is terribly harder than nstc as i heard

@@lu_501yeah ffpg is nearly impossible
