Experience the hardest Mario ever (no fluffing required!)

6:54 PM on 04.11.2007, Chad Concelmo 62 comments

     Hardcore

If you are ever in a situation where your little sister complains about a Mario game being too hard, please just slap her and show her this video.

Created by a random somebody in Taiwan (my vote is for escaped mental patient), this Mario mod is like a sick work of art. Granted, I would most likely give up after about one minute, but the sadomasochist inside of me wants to play it to death until I complete it. I mean, seriously, beating this would give you the ultimate video game bragging rights. I don’t even think Lucas would stand a chance.

Some of my favorite parts:

  • -The pipe that leads to sudden death. That just isn’t cool.
  • -The hidden coin blocks that just so happen to be in the “perfect” spots.

Whoever designed this deserves a special place in hell. But, at the same time, I raise my glass to you, you magnificent bastard.

[Via G4 -- thanks, Caleb!]

am I wrong for laughing at this?

MAN that's horrible. Especially when he thought he had the jump right, and conked his head on the block.

Oh man, those hidden coind blocks are the best part of it... Makes me lauch everytime. Little mario spends so much time preparing to jump and then he goes and WHAM. It's like Brilliant comedic timing right there

Props to anyone who has actually beaten this. It would be real hell if you died on 1-2 and had to go back to 1-1.

This is the most brutal film I've ever seen. It makes Hostel look like Porky's 2.

That is fucking hilarious. It has to have been made by a devious Japanese teenager.

I've seen worse when doing random stuff with a game genie, but nothing so manufacturedly difficult that is also beatable.

omg... at 6:36 when he thought he had to go around the pipe.. and then it ended up just being see-thru. lmfao priceless.

and wow... the beginning of 1-2 where he just keeps on hitting that fuckin block over and over again had me lolin.

The best parts tho, are when he sits back and tries to perfectly line up his jump... then a fuckin invisible block just pops up out of nowhere. (like at 15:30 lol)

Wow, that was made by someone who loves videogames but totally, completely, and utterly hates humanity.
Funny to watch, but painful to play.

Same feelings, Penguin and Monte. I just couldn't help laughing and at the same time cursing those conveniently-set blocks of hell. Many times I laughed and was sad. Of course, those blocks out the ass (because they definitely were) are just priceless timely comedy, which is lacking in some shows nowadays.

The hidden coin blocks are just priceless... Especially when past the middle of the segment, he just test jumps first on every platform before continuing.
