We're gonna measure the recovery time of Koopa Troops after being stomped, throughout the history of Super Mario games.
The results might be surprisingly variable...

    This is the most random and pointless video you’ve ever released and I love it! 🎉
  • @koosloo_ulia
    Interesting! I do believe that holding a shell does cause the timer to slow down, so the credibility of the NSMBU time is questionable.

    Thank you for such unique content.

    I tried to see if you could hit a Koopa from below in 3D World. Dude just disintegrates.
  • @Wendy_O._Koopa
    Due to limited processing power, the in-game timer and, well, everything else, moves faster when nothing else is moving. When a lot of things, like the player and some enemies, are moving, the timer (and whole game world) slows down. That is the reason for the discrepancies.

    This video is pretty cool. Idk why, but I always wanted to know how much time koopas really take to recover. This is useful for, as the example, 1-UP tricks

    I’d like to see more content like this, comparing random values from different Mario games. Maybe stuff like how much time/space it takes Mario to stop after a run, how much coyote time each game gives you, etc.
  • Nathaniel Bandy: "Koopas take 6 weeks to come out of their shell" Mario 3D Land and NSMBU looking at that: deepfried lmao
  • The guy who decides how long koopas stay in their shell must be very proud right now
  • @neilt82
    Oh, yeah! This is the level of Mario geekery I'm here for. Love it! 🤟

    6:10 I really should get back into SMG2, I tried playing a while back, got stuck on the first jump combo minigame and kinda just ragequit there because I have mushbrain, a made up disease where your brain just melts into mush from stress and you become incapable of doing anything
  • The Fact that NSMB2 Used to be my favorite game and I didn’t know this is kinda crazy
  • @b.a.g-gomez2610
    Just a little bit of trivia, the Koopas in Super Mario Land are called Bombshell Koopas.
  • @PokeNerd2499
    Why does no one ever consider Super Paper Mario for these kinds of things? lol In all seriousness, this was a fun little video haha
  • @GribnikSToporom
    Why the NSMBU time is that abnormally big? Or does it depend on Mario holding a shell?
