The vulnerability in PJ 64 can only happen if you load an unverified/unknown ROM. To prevent this, you can check the ROM hash to make sure it matches the real SM64 cartridge (differs for JP and US) (SM64 discord has a command w/ instructions for how to do that). tl;dr - for speedrunning doesn't matter unless you have a fake ROM.

Tbh there's probably no one making fake ROMs and distributing them. But if you want to be on the safe side, I would just avoid casual gaming on PJ 64 1.6

hey

I don't like Mario 64. Or to play......

If you're asking why people submit Twitch VODs instead of another format - people are allowed to submit other formats. I submit my runs as YT videos. It's a matter of preference (although it is required that certain sites be used to prevent things like having videos suddenly become unavailable).

This category is just an inferior version of 10x DDD Skip. Something along these lines might exist on the Streaks spreadsheet though.

Edit: wait i realize you may be meme-ing on the other posts about a "10x" category.
