Do I need to understand quantum mechanics to grasp how this was done?

This has been known to be possible for some time, just nobody was willing to put in the time required to actually do it. Cool that someone finally did it

I've been following this a good bit so I knew it was possible but only on the Wii VC version. Other versions need 1 A press now on Bowser in the Fire Sea. There's a Wii VC only glitch due to the Wii doing different floating point rounding from other versions that means that one of the platforms slowly rises there after a long enough time (8 hours-ish or so) that allows you to save that one A press.

Doing some of the stars without A presses requires memory manipulation and sometimes frame perfect movement so it's much easier to do on emulator. I'm guessing part of why it took so long to actually do the run is needing the Wii VC version and I dunno if there are emulators for it. Though with only getting 70 stars maybe you can avoid some of the most ridiculous ones.

I agree

I voted 1-5 jumps and I bet at least one of those 0 jumpers are 1-5 jumpers. At least one!

It's actually about 80 hours, not 8.

I don't even know how you get your first star without jumping into the first painting.

You can just dive jump into most levels with B twice. Nothing fancy there.

Decent chance you've done it yourself without thinking about it.

I have to jump twice.

He has been called Mario for 40 years, its time to forget he used to be called Jumpman!

No - you just need to know it was glitched
