Speedrunners of Super Mario Bros. Wonder for Nintendo Switch have achieved remarkable feats by completing the game in record-breaking times. These skilled players have found innovative strategies to finish the completionist runs, which involve collecting all Wonder Seeds, Purple Coins, Top of Flagpoles, Badges, and Standees. While the average player takes around 17 hours and 44 minutes to complete the game, two exceptional players, Sailo and P4ntz, have managed to accomplish this feat in less than six hours.
Sailo currently holds the top spot on Speedrun.com with an impressive completionist run of five hours and 25 minutes, surpassing his own previous record of five hours and 37 minutes. The active speedrunning community for Mario games ensures that new techniques and shortcuts will continue to be discovered, potentially leading to even faster completion times for Mario Wonder in the future.
Not only have players excelled in completionist runs, but they have also achieved remarkable speed in any percentage category. Speedrunners can now complete the game in just one hour and a half, showcasing their deep understanding of game mechanics and their ability to exploit glitches and exploits. The community recently uncovered a glitch that allows skipping half of the game, further reducing completion times.
While speedrunning may not be everyone’s cup of tea, it is important to acknowledge the dedication and effort these players put into pursuing world records. Their relentless pursuit of perfection pushes the boundaries of what is possible in gaming.
