Mario 64 Record Speedrun by Suigi Considered \"Unbeatable\"

Super Mario 64 speedrunning has reached new heights, with one player achieving an unprecedented feat. Read on to discover how speedrunner Suigi has redefined the game's competitive landscape.

Speedrunner Dominates All Major Mario 64 Categories

An Unrivaled Achievement

The Super Mario 64 speedrunning community is buzzing with excitement as Suigi has accomplished the seemingly impossible. By claiming the top spot in the challenging 70 Star category, Suigi is now the sole holder of world records across all five major Super Mario 64 speedrunning categories. This accomplishment is widely considered unparalleled and potentially unbeatable.

Suigi's victorious run, showcased on his YouTube channel GreenSuigi, clocked in at an impressive 46 minutes and 26 seconds. This time narrowly defeated Japanese speedrunner ikori_o by a mere two seconds – a testament to the extreme precision demanded by this high-level competition.

Speedrunning commentator and YouTuber Summoning Salt celebrated Suigi's triumph on Twitter (X), describing it as "an unbelievable achievement." Salt highlighted the diverse skill sets required for each of the five categories (120 Star, 70 Star, 16 Star, 1 Star, and 0 Star), ranging from short runs of 6-7 minutes to the longest, exceeding 1 hour and 30 minutes. The ability to dominate all five categories amidst fierce competition is truly extraordinary.

Salt further emphasized Suigi's commanding lead, noting that he holds most records by a significant margin, with no other runner even coming close. His 16 Star record, a particularly prestigious category, set over a year ago, remains unmatched by an astonishing six seconds.

A Contender for Greatest Speedrunner of All Time

Suigi's accomplishment has ignited widespread praise within the Super Mario 64 community. Many, including Summoning Salt, are hailing him as potentially the greatest player the game has ever seen.

While legendary speedrunners like Cheese and Akki previously dominated individual categories, Suigi's simultaneous mastery of all five major records—with no significant rivals in sight—places him among the greatest speedrunners in history.

The overwhelmingly positive community reaction to Suigi's achievement is noteworthy. Fans celebrate his dedication and skill, contrasting this with other speedrunning communities where such dominance is sometimes viewed as detrimental to the competitive spirit. In contrast, the Super Mario 64 community embraces Suigi's success as a testament to the game's enduring challenge and the exceptional talent it attracts, showcasing the collaborative spirit of this vibrant community.
