[TAS] NES Hard Relay Mario by HappyLee in

This is a tool-assisted speedrun. For more information, see tasvideos.org/2627M
TAS originally published on 2014-07-01
Notable for once being one of the hardest Super Mario Bros. hacks ever made, Hard Relay Mario (2004) is more like a puzzle game with its cryptic and difficult level layouts.
In this run, made over the course of two and a half years, watch as HappyLee (tasvideos.org/Users/Profile/H...) abuses the game engine to its fullest, finishing the game in the time it would normally take to get past the first few obstacles.
To see the game as it was meant to be played, you can also watch HappyLee beat the original game in his "warps" (tasvideos.org/1715M) and "warpless" (tasvideos.org/1962M) runs.
Watch this run being played back on a real console ( • [TAS Verified] NES Har... ).

I like how this isn't even intended for realtime, strictly tool assisted, and even then it's meant to be quite a challenge.😅

These TAS's gets more and more surreal I tell ya

[@Fazeof1p]

Yep, this is definitely designed for TAS runners. Theres no way in hell that any normal human being can time all those precision walljumps so perfectly. gg :)

[@enerc2333]

it is impossible for any human being

[@miymoto128]

These types of TAS always blow my mind!

Always loved this TAS

[@MrTASer]

I think that he TASed it while making it so that he can know what to do and where to entertain...
Great Job HappyLee

[@soggytoast111]

Impossible to be beaten by human - too many frame perfect maneuvers required. One wall kick by itself is already tough. Having to do dozens of them in a row while also avoiding spikes and flame spinners is impossible.

Why is TAS always so good at video games

[@user-fu9sx3fw2e]

Tool Assisted Play
It means it was recorded using a program which chooses the PERFECT choice and most efficient way Frame by Frame which is impossible by human input (gameplay)

[@user-fu9sx3fw2e]

Humans don't have the exact response ability or stamina or eyesight to do this 100% perfectly so Tas is the most fastest way to clear a game (or algorithm) which always is faster than human played game world rankings by seconds even minutes

If this was not played by TAS, is it clearable by human hands?

[@xshobux]

No, pretty sure this is meant to be TAS. Too many tricks are way too precise for real time

[@YawnMK1]

Nope, a lot of dual inputs and faster-than-controller-allowed inputs needed.

[@user-fu9sx3fw2e]

Thanks guys!
Yup human hardware sure have their limits..

It is a HYPERKAIZO hack, which is meant to be TAS-only.

Tool assisted play

[@user-fu9sx3fw2e]

A program is running this the most optical way, not a physical human game play

[@MattiaBulgarelli]

I know. I meant: are these levels playable to the end by a human, too? Or are these TAS-only?

[@jonathanbeshansky4932]

I would say no without some kind of slowdown of the game to do precise glitches.
