Some of us will become doctors or nurses, jobs that help people. Others will create art that moves us to tears. But every once in a while someone comes along who is destined for greatness – in this case, that person is YouTuber TCNick3, who set the world record for longest streak playing a Smash Bros. title at a really good and entertaining 69 hours ( Thanks to GamesRadar). I’m sure you get the joke.
Currently, the record you’ll see on the Guinness Book of World Records website belongs to Canada’s Daniel Bergman, who played an unspecified Super Smash Bros. game for 57 hours. In the video documenting his world record, TCNick3 said: “I don’t want to just break the record, I want to break it. So the goal: 69 hours of continuous play, no further explanation needed.”
Of course, in order to achieve such a goal, TCNick3 made sure he didn’t eat anything that might require him to go to the bathroom frequently, and according to Guinness rules, he could only take a 10-minute break for every hour he played. TCNick3 achieved this in the form of two hours of sleep per night in the three days it took to actually complete the world record.
You can see the moment TCNick3 managed to achieve his lofty goal of 69 hours, 4 minutes and 20 seconds here, stopping the race at that exact mark. This is an era that seems hard to beat, and honestly, maybe no one should. Make it a monument to everything possible in gaming and represent human potential.
