A new record was set with Super Mario when streamer Niftski broke the game in less than 5 minutes.
Streamer Niftski has just shared a video of him breaking the 1985 Super Mario Bros game. What’s remarkable here is that this streamer took less than 5 minutes, namely 4 minutes 54 seconds 798 milliseconds (ms) to complete completely. set of screens.
This achievement has been recognized as the “fastest in game history”.
Niftski’s new record is classified as Any%, This is a type of trick that uses inherent “system errors” in the game to win quickly. However, the tricks must be used flexibly and require precise timing, so many gamers still have difficulty in the process of playing.
With an approximate time of 4 and a half minutes, many people consider this an impossible number to be able to complete Super Mario Bros. Many people suspect that Niftski also uses many other cheating methods.
It is also quite understandable when people question the performance of streamer Niftski, because for the first time in 2010, it took a player exactly 5 minutes to “break” the game. That achievement has been maintained for 11 years until streamer Niftski posted his video.
During those 11 years, many other gamers tried to break the record but failed. There are even newly published numbers that are only a few milliseconds apart, showing just how fierce the rivalry is.
The fastest result before streamer Niftski posted the video was 4 minutes 54 seconds 265 ms, but the player is not a regular gamer but an AI that has been pre-programmed for every move in the game. That makes all of its manipulations almost impossible for humans.
Streamer Niftski shared his secret, he used the “Lightning 4-2” trick – taking advantage of some errors in stage 4-2 and shortened a few milliseconds. Yes, it’s only a few milliseconds, but streamer Niftski says he really has to practice countless times to master this method.
According to Kotaku, his manipulation is almost perfect, without any flaws:
“Even the pre-programmed machine is only a few milliseconds faster than him.”
