The first ever TAS of 1 Key was released on September 29th, 2016 with a time of 4’21”67, which came more than a year after the original reveal. This was due to the fact that getting QPU speed requires visiting [[Vanish Cap under the Moat]] to perform an [[Backwards_Long_Jump#Elevator_BLJ|elevator-BLJ]]. Visiting VCutM without draining the moat originally required 10 stars to get the [[wing cap]] for [[hyperspeed flying]], which was slower than just getting 8 stars, visiting the basement, and draining the moat normally (which made it slower to do this trick). Later, however, a BLJ on the [[castle grounds]] was found that sufficed to enter VCutM. | The first ever TAS of 1 Key was released on September 29th, 2016 with a time of 4’21”67, which came more than a year after the original reveal.

The current record for the 1 Key TAS stands at 4:21.13 on emulator, timed at 4:21.04 on console (making console timing actually ''faster'' than emulator timing). 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. | The current record for the 1 Key TAS stands at 4:21.13 on emulator, timed at 4:21.04 on console (making console timing actually ''faster'' than emulator timing)<ref name="contime"/>.

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]].
