Are emulated runs allowed? Only asking because I've lost my copy of the game and don't have a capture card that works with my 3DS (not even sure it still works ngl)

Up to the mods, but I think emu should be okay as long as it runs the same obviously. You could make the argument that mouse/keyboard might be unfair, but im not sure it would be any faster than stylus.

Highly doubt it's faster than the stylus...The stylus feels near instant...at minimum it'd be comparable to a mouse in speed

That being said this game is 16 years old so finding a copy and also having the hardware to both run and record it is ....well....Prohibitive

@cevrosa unlike other games/systems DSs and AWDS are still cheap as fuck (if you're in the US/UK). Checking ebay, its was $12 for a AWDS cartridge, and you can find DSes for like $30-50 on the right sites. Not too much of a barrier for entry there. Either way, I'm a fan of allowing emulation anyway, and considering they let me run off a 3DS with twilight menu, I think they'd allow people to run off an emulator as long as they aren't speeding up the game or something. I would include your emulator used when asking and dm @Frozer with any questions since he's the main active mod here to my knowledge.
