Without the ability to gain instance speeds, he can no longer boost upstairs or through walls. So Why Can't I Backward Long-Jump On Nintendo Switch?So what’s different in the Shindou Edition? Well, they added a speed-cap to Mario’s negative movement. Now that we have the ability to move faster than the game intended, it allows Mario to skip frames which enables him to pass through solid objects. Long-jump up the stairs backwards though, and it’s a different story. So when you’re long-jumping up stairs normally, you can chain a lot of them together quickly, but the positive speed-cap will always keep Mario from going too fast. While there is a speed-cap on Mario’s positive movement value, there isn’t one on his negative value. When Mario is running forward, his speed value is positive, when he’s standing still it’s zero, and when he goes backwards it’s negative. But the designers put a speed cap in the game, so no matter how many consecutive long jumps you use, Mario will never be able to exceed the speed limit. When running forward, Mario gets a bit of a speed boost when long-jumping. Backwards long-jumps are pretty technical in how they work, so I’ll attempt to explain it the simplest way I can. 70-Star is the only category that doesn’t use BLJ’s and that’s because its technically the no-major-glitches category, so BLJ’s are banned. It’s not required in 120-Star, but there are certain times speedrunners use it to speed a few things up. Of these five categories, 0-Star, 1-Star, and 16-Star all require the ability to backwards long-jump. What Even Is a Backwards Long-Jump?First off, what is a backwards long-jump and why is it important to speedrunning Super Mario 64? The game has several main categories that speedrunners currently run through: 0-Star, 1-Star, 16-Star, 70-Star, and 120-Star. It’s for this reason most speedrunners will not be leaving their original hardware behind for the shiny new Switch port. Of course, because this version came out well over a year after the original release, it also includes various bug fixes, most notably removing Mario’s ability to perform a BLJ (or Backwards Long Jump). But it also includes a few subtle differences as well: Mario now spins around a pole or tree when he grabs on, various sound effect changes have been made (most famously when Mario throws Bowser), and the Shindou edition’s intro screen contains a fun little easter egg when you press the Z-trigger. The biggest consumer-facing change is the addition of Rumble Pak support. It was released in July 1997 and is often considered the definitive version of Mario 64.
Enter the Super Mario 64 Shindou edition. Other than that, you’re mostly playing the same game, glitches and all. Text scrolls differently, the Japanese version has fewer voice-lines, a couple of stars spawn differently, and Mario can even dab in the Japanese version. These two versions have quite a few differences, but they’re so small that most folks won’t even notice. The Japanese version which released on June 23rd, 1996 or the American version which came out September 29th, 1996. Speedrunners mainly use one of two versions to speedrun Super Mario 64. The only concern they have with this run is the Video On Demand, or VOD, pauses for a second partway through, so there's a chance the attempt may not be officially acknowledged.Let’s break it down in the simplest of terms.
According to the video's description, they are now aiming to run the game again with a view to completing it in 6:25.
Back in December 2021, Kanno was able to defeat Mario 64 with one star in a time of just 7:07. This is also not the first time they've pulled off such a skillful feat. This means that the first minute of the run consists of starting the game and waiting for the opening cut scene to end. Incredible still, the timer begins as soon as the main menu is shown.

However, using a series of skips, the runner was able to bypass certain areas that require a star. What's even more impressive is that they were able to achieve this without collecting a single star, something that many will know should be impossible to do. In a video uploaded to YouTube yesterday, user Kanno managed to beat the final boss of Mario 64 in a head spinning 6:27, beating the previous world record by about two seconds.
