Although much of the progress in the ABC has been made since 2013, the ABC existed for over a decade earlier. Pieces of what would become the ABC were present in different terms, as early as 2001 on Walton Dell's site on multiple level pages.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20020614010118/http://www.wdell.com/videogames/sm64/course01/</ref> Curtis Bright, who runs sm64.com, was keeping track of ABC at least as early as December of 2006.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20061209073313/http://www.student.cs.uwaterloo.ca/~cbright/sm64/a-presses.html</ref> Thiago Trujillo had what is the earliest, nearly complete count for the game (that we have access to) with a total count of about 263 presses.<ref>http://www.oocities.org/thiagotrujillo/abut.html</ref> (This list is missing all navigation presses, two of the [[DDD]] stars, three of the [[TTC]] stars, one star in [[RR]], and [[BitS]].) | Although much of the progress in the ABC has been made since 2013, the ABC existed for over a decade earlier.

Pannenkoek's first ABC video was for 5 Itty Bitty Secrets, and was released in August 2013.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xy7XDStV5WE</ref> The count at this point was about 212 presses, although this number dropped fairly quickly. Within the first 4 months, the count had fallen nearly 100 presses, and was down to 118. Over the next five years, many different people have worked on removing as many counts as possible, and the number has dropped to only 20 A presses in a 120 star run (as well as 0 in any%). | Pannenkoek's first ABC video was for 5 Itty Bitty Secrets, and was released in August 2013.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xy7XDStV5WE</ref> The count at this point was about 212 presses, although this number dropped fairly quickly.
