The challenge aims to reduce the use of [[A Button]] in courses, first documented in [http://www.curtisbright.com/sm64/abc/ Curtis Bright's website]. Since then, many techniques are applied in an attempt to bring down the A Press count, with [[Pannenkoek2012]] being the biggest contributor to the challenge. There are 97 stars that can be collected without the A Button using TAS.

The C buttons are only allowed when they only affect the camera and don't affect actual gameplay. For example, the [[C^ Hyperspeed]] glitch is not allowed.
