New special strat leads to barrage of Super Mario 64 speedruns, including a world record
When you think about speedrunning, Super Mario 64 is likely one of the first games that comes to mind for most people. This groundbreaking title, full of exhilarating exploits and players hungry for personal best times (PBs), is still played in droves nearly 30 years after its initial release.
Over the past week, the 120-star category has seen two new world records. These monumental runs are due to the incorporation of a new strategy called carpetless that was discovered last month.
