as for 31:36.. what exactly was the difference in the characters😭 i always sucked at this. and i watched you do it and i still don’t know what the difference is

good question! so in Tanks, if you get hit on the same frame as the final enemy tank, you both lose a life and clear the mission. it’s called FPD and saves 8.5 seconds by not needing to lose that life at the end. (it’s not worth doing on the gold medal because we don’t need to burn lives there) if you can do it on the last mission (30 for platinum) it saves 20 seconds, but only Bronze WR has this rn. in Find Mii, the miis are all looking the same direction except the odd ones out which are looking the other way. the correct miis have a larger hitbox tho so i managed to guess quicker there. hope this helps! i used to suck at Find Mii too, only managed to get silver before adding distinct miis like the ? face, and knowing about the big hitboxes. there’s lots of small strats like that in this game!

@@SMMidi crazy strats, reminds me of time skips in zombies. i just recently learned of the wii sports golf strat where you can play the ball from the water. awesome these games still have a community especially now in the golden age of content

thank you! i actually did get the WR back not long after this, just uploaded the WR first lol. got a Tanks mission 5 frame perfect death so i don’t expect to beat it for a while kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pciWo9V3x7DIlmQ.htmlsi=k98T7FwkU2_iRuzY

it can be brutal to keep a good pace going both for score and speed

i’m glad you like that part of my style! i do it just in case i get a really good PB and submit that to a speedrun marathon, that way they at least get some idea of what my solo commentary is like :)

thank you!

did not realise that’s a thing but um yeah that’s what it is now

it’s a great game casually and as a speedrun!

wow, glad you enjoyed it! Wii Play speedruns can be pretty fun and it’s really active with other runners right now

Find Mii Gold IL PB by like 6s too, gonna be very hard for me to beat this!

it’s ok just some shoddy powerpoint “editing”

EXACTLY LMAO i said i needed it to get WR back, and there it is lol. very lucky this time, i hit it twice ever before this run and they were intentional setups, this one was scuffed. if i got m3 FPD it would’ve been sub 18 tho so i kinda want to go for that

hi, glad you enjoyed! Pose Miidi is a strat where you lose lives on Pose Mii level 2. if you lose a life the pattern repeats, and it’s a nicer pattern than most levels (6 bubbles left, then right, left, right, then lose a life). you only lose 10 perfect bonus points and you don’t have to lose all 3 lives at the end. it only saves a few seconds usually, but that’s the point WRs in medal categories are at now, it’s come a long way

😳

thank you!

thanks Shy Guy!

glad you enjoyed! i’m doing a lot of Tanks stuff lately on Twitch with PBs going up on YT. currently going for Tanks 100 deathless

thank you!

thanks Cole!

@@SMMidi Np!

yooo thanks Ursi! i modded my wii u to use Gecko which just boots games by ignoring the region lock. it saves 10s in Shooting Range and 4s in loads, so this would’ve been 58:xx without it, but still helped push it down a lot. and i bought the disc off ebay

@@SMMidi I’m disappointed you didn’t buy a NTSC wii :P but really I’m glad there’s a way to use that bug on PAL consoles, 999 looks so easy with it hah

if someone buys me an NTSC wii u i’ll use it, until then i’ll save my money and use this way thanks :p Theon got 999 as soon as i started doing runs with NTSC, you have to be super fast on targets but it’s humanly possible

thanks, great to know you’d be interested! i plan on doing a full post-commentary of this run for future speedrun marathons including a GDQ submission! for now tho, i got a really good time on a marathon a few weeks back with commentary: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mN6dhbComd-VZ58.htmlsi=is6P9FH15LdZaJTW

i use dpad LMAO i know other runners that use nunchuk tho. nunchuk probably is more comfortable

"remember, no russian"

thank you theon, you know i’m coming for Bronze soon :)

monkaS

i still can’t believe i dodged those bullets, i must’ve been within pixels of the bottom one. and to think there are multiple other possible best clips in this run too, it’s wild lol

thank you! i’d love for Salt to cover Wii Play! there is a top runner working on a Plats vid rn who has already done one on Charge ILs, so we are at least gonna have that

thanks so much! i’ll have to just do it again first try next stream :p

i could’ve had another 2 second PB 🤯

🤯

thank you! it would be great to see Salt cover this game, it has a very rich history especially in 2023-2024 where it really kicked off. Th3on3C is currently working on a world record progression for Plats tho, so i’m looking forward to that!

wait im goated

thank you!
