How quickly can you complete Nintendo's 1996 landmark release Super Mario 64? How many stars do you commonly have when you finish the game? Here's a speedrun that blows all of your personal scores and achievements out of the water. It's a tool-assisted speedrun, natch, but here we see Mario's adventure completed in just a few seconds over five minutes with zero — count 'em (oh, wait, you can't) — stars collected. This is impossible during normal gameplay, but the rules of time and space do not apply when tools lend a hand, glitches are exploited, and loopholes are abused. TASVideos has the full explanation regarding just what is going on here if you'd rather not keep the mystery alive.
