Just a few questions about running

First of all, does it matter if I run it in widescreen or 4:3? Figured I would ask so I can do it in the better format.

Second of all, any tips for doing the triple jump skip on Megaleg's moon? Not sure if I'm just not getting enough speed or going too fast.

I either run too far and miss the third jump, or I don't get the triple jump because I'm not running fast enough.

Lastly, is the discord actually used often? I don't have discord but I thought about getting it if it was used often.

Been practicing on and off for a while now, but trying to get into it again.

Widescreen is better because you have more room on the screen and it helps with the cannon in Bowser jr's airship armada for an example.

For the triple jump in megaleg's moon you just have to position yourself well and start the triple jump at the right time. Look at videos to see where other people do it and try to do it the same way. Mashing A for the last jump can be better than trying to time it correctly. Something else you should know that you might now know yet is that holding A while spinning on air gives you extra height and makes it easier to make skips like these. If you're playing as Luigi, spinning with the nunchuck will also give you more height than wiimote, and wiimote gives you more height as Mario.

The Discord is pretty active and you can ask questions there and get help pretty quickly, so I'd recommend joining it if you're learning the game.

I'll have to compare and try a few different things. Is it possible to triple jump when not holding the control stick all the way to the side? Maybe I'll have to just practice it on a different flat surface for a bit.

Oh wow, I never knew that. I've been just using the Wii Remote for spinning the whole game. I originally was running it as Mario, but I switched to Luigi because I prefer him in general. Still trying to learn about a lot of things. I've been watching your runs to study and try to improve.

Originally I Was running it on my CRT TV so I was sticking to 4:3, but recently I got component cables so it looks way better on my HD TV. I just need to get a new capture device for component.. unless I find something to record with HDMI..

Thank you. I'll have to make a discord. :) Appreciate all the help.

I think you have to be holding the control stick to a direction to get the last jump in triple jump. You can actually go neutral while you're on air before that but you have to hold to the direction you're going right when you land.

And no problem, good luck with learning! :)
