I don’t think I’ll get over how the video kinda just went from Mario kart to a love letter to Danganronpa, fantastic video overall!!

Now unlock every Smash Brothers character for every game in week

31:44 Seeing someone like Nathaniel Bandy, near the end of this 35 minute video of a Mario challenge, randomly start playing and reviewing Danganronpa is certainly one of the oddest experiences of disorientation I've ever had in my life

So there's a secret in Super Mario Kart (SNES). The CPU racers always follow the same exact path, so you can drop shells and bananas at certain spots and the CPU will always crash into it. Also, depending on what character you choose, you will have a rival who is always right behind you. If the rival character slips behind some other character, the CPUS will slow down until he's in front of the line. Also, you weren't drifting

I couldn't stop laugging when Luigi jumped over that shell😂

Goodbye Despair is really good. The executions become more elaborate, the characters are- for the most part- are really entertaining, the trials become more entertaining and overall, it surpasses the first in many wa- oh right... this is a MK video.

That was probably one of the smartest things ever having a countdown for each day that starts like a race. GENIUS IDEA NATHANIEL next get the national dex in every pokemon game

18:46 "And with Funky Kong, I can Dunky Kong the computers and make my way through the game with no pain." I feel you man.

Don’t know if this is in your wheelhouse, but 100% completing all 4 Pikmin games in a week seems like a fun idea!

I am glad this series is continuing to grow

Can we just take a moment to appreciate the fact that this man got 3 stars on every super circuit track so that he could unlock waluigi

I absolutely love the day transition animations, they just add that much more pizazz to the video and they’re really well done, congrats to whoever made them

21:36 🤓 "Um arent you supposed to..."

I have played Mario Kart 7 for literal YEARS and STILL have not 100%ed the game yet, so yeah, I can totally relate to NB going insane trying to do so in two days 🤣

This challenge definitely would be possible if you started with 7 and played the others while waiting for the races to finish.

Hearing you say DS was your favourite with so much enthusiasm made me smile

>"Mario Kart on the SNES ist hard!" >doesn' t drift ONCE in the footage >3 coins >2 coins >5 coins

30:09 look Ma, I made it!

Not once did I think Nathanial Bandy would talk about Danganronpa, let alone during a Mario Kart marathon. I can’t escape this game ever since I replayed it

In hindsight, probably the only way in which this challenge would have been possible is if you started with Mario Kart 7, and when you got to the coin farming part, you start playing all of the other Mario Karts, but before every race you start, you also start a Mario Kart 7 race to coin farm.

First he 100% every 3d mario game in a week....and now he's doing the same for mario kart.... How nathaniel keeps himself sane despite the challenges he's done over the years is beyond me.... Spending 24 hours in vr mario 64. Beating mario 64 with his elebows. Going to a gamestop in all 50 states. How this man keeps himself going is god dam impressive.... Also the custom animations are a great touch! Also i really hope your ankle is alright!

Thanks as always for letting me animate some stuff for this! Really loved brainstorming ideas for how to visualize which day it was in each animation, it was very fun and rewarding. Cant wait to see more of these 7 day videos. They seem like absolute torture to make but they're really interesting and entertaining!

For 7, I didn’t realize 20k coins is an alternative unlock condition for the gold kart. I just played online up to 10k VR. Even then, it still took over a few months to get 10k VR on 7 Online. Despite all this though, it was entertaining seeing you push 100% completing the Mainline Mario Kart games as much as you could.

I love it when he makes these types of videos, because It means I get to watch somebody else regret their life choices for once.

Danganronpa appearing outta nowhere in this marathon was weird but awesome, glad to see Nathaniel enjoyed the first one, it's a great time. The second is my personal favourite, so hope you enjoy it and the rest of the series!

0:40 - Day 1 7:54 - Day 2 17:27 - Day 3 19:44 - Day 4 23:35 - Day 5 27:55 - Day 6 31:18 - Day 7 For the people who liked the day transitions, including me :)

Man Super Circuit made me absolutely RAGE as a kid. I was obsessed with Mario Kart so I managed to get 3 stars in all cups on all speeds eventually, but I never understood the star ranking system, thanks!

31:30 this is the American Dream

I absolutely love the animations for the transitions for each day.

You're insane. This is why you're an amazing KZfaqr

for Mario kart 8 it's not just the number of coins you end the race with, it counts the total number you collected regardless of how many your actually finish with. at least it did for me

27:43 i did not expect to hear "insaniquarium" music playing in the background of a mario video XD i approve

Man… this is pretty cool! You should do everything in Super Smash Bros. next… if you can!

i wanna know how many times you were blue shell'd

Is your tv on the ceiling?

Yeah that Mario 7 coin requirement is magnitudes of difficulty harder than the other challenges. Doing just that at a rate of 160 coins per hour, he'd need to play almost 18 hours a day to collect 20000 coins. Meaning, in theory, he'd have to have that challenge running from the very beginning, do it intermittently between other races for 18 hours a day, pause other races to strictly limit time the clock so he could keep that rate at a maxed out 160 and be perfect at that all week. Utterly ridiculous. Great job with the attempt! It was very impressive.

32:06 omg OOOOMMGGG HES PLAYING DANGANROMPA ALERT HE IS PLAYING DANGANROMPA

Nathan, for MK8D, the coin collection system still goes up even when you hit ten coins during races. If i hit ten coins, and collect more, they count. Its how many you touch, not how many you finish with. Honestly MK8D is the longest to true 100%(all cups 3 stars gold, and all gold items) but definitely the most friendly.

"i get mad at games sometimes" *celeste music starts playing*

This challenge is awesome! My older brother and I started something similar around a week ago. We’re playing vs. matches for every course in every Mario Kart game. We’re calling it “the All Kart Tour”. I’d highly recommend it to anyone!

As a highly involved Danganronpa fan and a childhood fan of Nintendo. I love this video

The dedication to hold down the drive button for 7 days to complete all the funny driving Italian man games is just, I don’t have a word to describe it.

Okay, here’s an idea. Paper Mario 64, TTYD, and SPM 100% in one week

This would be a lot easier on your body if you didn’t have your monitor on your ceiling.

22:00 fun fact you don’t need to play 50 and 100 CC to get scores for them, whatever you get on 150 CC transfers down to the slower cups as well. I don’t know if it was there at the start, but I realized it happened when doing the dlc cups

This guy is pushing it to the limit. He’ll do anything to make a challenge unique.

Thanks for the A+ explaination on getting 3 stars in super circuit. I really needed it!

I remember feeling very accomplished completing the 150cc in Super Mario Kart on Super NES with Bowser. I kept collecting coins to go faster. Friend didn't realize the 150cc existed till I came over. As a veteran of the series, Thank you for sharing your experience with the series.

Those day transitions are so smooth!

Honestly, I am impressed with Nathaniel’s hard work he puts in these new videos. This person is extremely dedicated to his work and is one of the few KZfaqrs who will deliberately stress himself just for our entertainment

I love the "Mario & Luigi" games with Partners in Time being one of my all time fave games. A week to play all of those games??? Too crazy to even think about

At 4:13 that is do able with feather and you can actually do that with the normal slide jump button too. But that one is harder to pull off.

12:09 using a rocket start to take away skill points is like charging Squidward for breathing

Monokuma why 😐

Great video Nathan. Please let this become its own series (can I 100% complete x in a week?). These are really fun.

@7:57 haha, that's literally exactly how I played DD, King Boo and Pirana Plant in the Gold Car! X-D

1:13 - Super Mario Kart 5:36 - Mario Kart 64 8:01 - Mario Kart Super Circuit 15:27 - Mario Kart: Double Dash!! 16:57 - Mario Kart DS 18:25 - Mario Kart Wii 21:31 - Mario Kart 8 Deluxe 25:27 - Mario Kart 7 And the outro part where he says how much time each game took, the total was 88 hours, or 3.6 days! So, much dedication to Nathaniel/Nathan!

Every Luigi’s mansion in a week

Couple changes to this challenge I would’ve done: For MK7 knowing about that 20k coins unlockable, I would actually start with that game and play the others while grinding using the method you did. For MK8, that’s a solid coin grind, but I’m pretty sure it’d count for the coins for both players or do it with 4 players, so do the same as before, just switch to the other players and get coins with them too (Also, probably practice Super Mario Kart and Super Circuit beforehand.) Other than that though, great job! Super fun video and I want to try this challenge out for myself!

160 coins per hour, 20000 coins, I coulda done some simple math and told you this wasn't possible lol

I feel like nintendo should give you a medal for all that your doing. Great work nathaniel.

21:42 I died laughing!

The Day transitions were sick! Great video, Nate.

I couldnt even achieve this in 25 years

Nathaniel is such a true chad for putting up with this content for us. The only words that I can say about this video is "Absolute Masterpiece"

MK8 stores all the coins you’ve collected in a GP. You can only hold 10, but every coin you pick up after that is stored in your game total.I doubt this would’ve changed the strategy tho

Laughed so hard at 4:07 the game wasn’t wanting to give him any chances

20 years ago, i permanently shrunk myself on SMK SNES and still got 1st in every race in all 4 cups on 150cc. I obliterated that game.

Now it’s time to 100% ever Zelda game in a week 😂

Back in the day I played Super Mario Kart endlessly. I didn’t have very many games then. It made me grind all the hard difficulty. This brought me back lol

I remember fully beating Super Mario Kart for the first time 4 years ago after having played it mostly in Battle Mode with my siblings during my childhood. It honestly made me gain a new sense of appreciation for the game. Getting used to the driving mechanics takes a while nowadays, but after you get the hang of them the game can be a ton of fun. I'm always a bit sad it's become sort of a black sheep for the series.

4:20 Bandy gets Driver's Thumb. This happens with real-life racing (Driver's Leg) as well and is why the real life Le Mans race only allows you to drive for 6 hours at a time.

Bandy's becoming more of an animation channel every upload

Soooo….. I wasn’t expecting that trying to 100% every Mario kart game could possinly break someone like this but at the same time it’s cool to see you played danganronpa and enjoyed it! The second game is definitely the best one in my opinion!

How is no one talking about the fact that this dude doesn’t even know how to drift in the first Mario kart game???

Thank you for the Horizon Chase, Sonic R and Sonic 3D Blast music references throughout the video! Very neat to relisten to them! And congrats, that's a really harsh challenge. I have my MKSC cart for GBA to this day and managed to get a third option for the Title Screen that you didn't mention, a sunset palette (orange-y), which has to do with winning all the base cups in all speeds.

Now, there is NO way he can 100% every 2D Mario game in a week, if he can, I’ll be VERY surprised

listening to nathaniel talk about danganronpa is my new favourite thing ever because it’s one of my favourite franchises and a part of me hopes that he makes a video about it at some point, even if it’s just a video ranking all of the characters, trials, motives or executions

You increase your top speed by collecting coins in Super Mario Kart. You have to collect them to match the enemies speeds in later levels. Games were just hard af back then. They NEVER held your hand like they do today. I'm a life long gamer. I started with NES, but I even had an Atari 2600 and a Vectrex donated to me when I was a git. I'd play the hell out of them bitches, too. We often had to share the secrets we found in games with other children at school to progress, discover or unlock special areas/items and/or or just secrets in general. Nintendo Power subscriptions became a must. I loved the magazines, but I rarely used them myself to actually aquire any meaningful progression; for the first few years anyway. Mostly because I was really young and it took a little bit of growing up to understand how helpful they actually were. It's fun to watch younger people playing the older games. They're generally pretty tough to finish. Beating an NES was a ridiculously memorable accomplishment.

THE DANGANRONPA APPEARANCE CAUGHT ME SO OFF GUARD, ITS BEEN MY SPECIAL INTEREST FOR TWO YEARS 😭😭 AHH

As far as I'm aware the rocket start in Super Circuit actually adds to your skill points, rather than subtracting from them. So that might've made things a bit easier. Still don't blame you for skipping that one though

32:51 "buy-a-kuya" your pronunciation is killing me.

That gamer stance is insane bro..! It's generally bad for your neck to just tilt your head 10-20 degrees when working and you are sitting like this constantly for a week

21:16 reaction to finally unlock Mii Outfit B!!!!!!

It definitely seems like doing the Mario Kart 7 cups/time trials first and then grinding coins while completing the other games could make this quite a bit faster. Someone else in the comment section also mentioned something pretty useful on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. You can use 4 controllers with auto-accelerate and smart-steering on Big Blue to get coins, so that's another game you can have running in the background. I'd love to see someone complete this challenge, maybe in 6 or even 5 days, with these optimizations in mind.

I knew SC was gonna cause some trouble lol. Drifting is actually really easy. You just start the drift like usual but you have to jump at the end of it to realign yourself. You'll still get the speedboost.

31:10 that almost caught me off-guard as a bfdi fan

I love how challenging the SNES game is haha. My favorite in the series.

29:48 Actually, since you were idle for most of the coin farming in MK7 - wouldn't it have saved a lot of time if you started with it, and did all the waiting for other players to finish, while you play the other games in the meantime?

I want more of these, they’re so much fun to watch.

How did you not get your drift on for Super Mario Kart? Ah lad.

This feels like an ad for spike chunsoft 33:07

32:29 Metal Mario is thankful that he's not in that situation.

Just think the amount of time he puts into making his videos. He puts so much effort into them and is why he’s such a unique gaming channel.

13:42 Drifting was also in MK64 as well, done the same way, a little "VEEEEE" comes out of your exhaust. When the exhaust turns red, release the jump button and you get a little mini-turbo boost.

Aint u nathaniel b?

18:58 while i was watching this i was holding a tv remote and when you went of the ranp i shook the tv romote to trick. 😂

luigi dodging the red shell just by super jumping is the equivalent of him giving you the middle finger, dang

I never expected to see danganronpa in a mario kart video

Clearly someone who didn't grow up with 16 bits. Super Mario Kart is a Masterpiece.
