0.00.0001: How Super Mario Wonder Speedrunners Annihilated The Game

Only one week into its release, Super Mario Wonder has been optimized completely by the speedrunning community to a time equal to only a single sub-frame. To find out how, we asked expert speedrunner "izitjustmeordomyballzitch":

"Oh, I just turned it off."

Truly, a revolution in speedrunning. It remains to be seen whether this trick will work in other games, but several players of Sonic Superstars have suggested that it not only works, but is far superior to the regular game itself.

Neil Alden Armstrong - Aug 5. 1930 - Aug. 25, 2012

US Navy aviator, NASA astronaut, research pilot, aerospace engineer, university professor, commander of Gemini 8 and the first man to walk on the Moon.

"Despite Armstrong's status as an American icon for being the first man to set foot on the moon, he considered himself first and foremost as an engineer and pilot." ~ David McBride, director of NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center
