This is the sixth segment of the SDA run on Super Mario 64 DS.
I am uploading special versions of the SDA videos just to show the file select screen too.

2014 edit:
Years has gone passed since this run existed and a better run can be done in around 1:19. Various reasons include:

1) DS capture device. The runs are now directly recorded. This enables the players to play the game without having to use an insane camera setup to show the footage in good quality.

2) Less saves = more time saved. If you save the game and end the segment, you warp back outside the castle entrance, this costs a bit of time than entering a course and use "Exit course" command.

3) Faster strats/route = A faster route is probably possible thanks to having more people speed running the game. The more brains you have in a community, the faster the polish rate of having a good speed run.
This is what I've said in my run comments

Segment 6: (Luigi Unlocked, Stars 21 to 27)
The first segment I play as Luigi. He is required for some of the stars in Boos Mansion and Big Boo Secret Star.
Star 21: Princess Secret Slide:
I didn't know the huge shortcut during the recording but it only saves 2 seconds or more So this one is not too bad.

Star 22: Boo's Mansion (BM) Big Boo Balcony
I chose this star first because I want to get the back flip timesaver done right for the first time. It went pretty well.

Star 23: BM: On a ghost hunt.
I lose around 6 seconds due to poor camera angle near by the ? Box and bad guess work on where the 2 Boos were. Fortunately with invisibility, the Big Boo fight was easy to deal with.

Star 24: BM: Ride Big Boo's Merry-Go-Round
This star wasn't too bad, I could have tried and hit Big Boo sooner on the first hit but I wanted to make sure that he's no longer out of bounds before I hit him or else I would have to wait even longer.

Star 25: BM: Secret of the Haunted Books
This star was good, nothing much to say.
*There was a notable level design change that the star is guarded by a special glass wall that not even invisibility powers can get through it. So you can't skip the book puzzle on the DS version.

Star 26: BM: Eye to Eye in the secret room.
Another easy star, I don't need to rush to the Mr, Big I room when I get the flower because the Mr. Big I only follows visible players.

Star 27: Big Boo Battle Secret Star:
The last star of the 6th Segment. This one went pretty good, there was a mistake I think at the red ? box but it wasn't too bad. I also did a 2nd Jump to a Scuttle to a Mid-air kick combo for the shortcut on the 2nd room mainly because his Long Jump seems to has less distance than Mario and that it's the last star so major mistakes are quite bad.
