'''1 Key''' is the name for the current iteration of the any% [[TAS]] category which involves skipping [[Bowser in the Dark World]], the first Bowser level, by entering the castle using a glitch called [[#Moat Door Skip|Moat Door Skip]]. It is so named because Mario collects exactly 1 [[Key]], namely the one collected after finishing [[Bowser in the Fire Sea]]. Its name also references previous any% TAS categories including [[0 Star]], [[1 Star]], and [[16 Star]]. | '''1 Key''' is the name for the current iteration of the any% [[TAS]] category which involves skipping [[Bowser in the Dark World]], the first Bowser level, by entering the castle using a glitch called [[#Moat Door Skip|Moat Door Skip]].

The current record for the 1 Key TAS stands at 4:20. | The current record for the 1 Key TAS stands at 4:20.77. Since this skip saves the time normally required for the first Bowser level, this TAS holds the world record for the fastest known completion of Super Mario 64. | ||

Unlike many other categories, the 1 Key run is optimally performed on the [[Super Mario 64#Japanese|Japanese version]] of the game instead of the [[Super Mario 64#English|US version]]. This is due to [[Peach]] not narrating her dialogue in the Japanese version, which saves more time than the longer in-game text costs. This time save is emphasized due to MDS skipping both the castle entry textbox and the BitDW textbox, both of which are longer on the Japanese version. Therefore, this run is ''not'' performed on the Japanese version because of version-exclusive glitches; it is performed on the Japanese version because the introduction is faster. | Unlike many other categories, the 1 Key run is optimally performed on the [[Super Mario 64#Japanese|Japanese version]] of the game instead of the [[Super Mario 64#English|US version]].
