Those WM codes are now allowed in GTI speedruns. We only allow all codes that give the same items in all versions to provide fair competition. Therefore only one code can be used (e.g. for Reviver Seed) if there are more in the respective version since the PAL one only has one code for it.
It's recommend to get Reviver Seeds for the first bossfight and All Protect Orbs for the Munna bossfight, the other ones don't have to be used.
Allowed codes:
PAL:
Q858FWH2: All Protect Orb 3K9RNQC3: Gold Scope 3W29MF3N: Joy Ribbon FXT4NX7N: Joy Seed 9H6R9QSS: Reviver Seeds x 3
NTSC-U:
2C3YJ43F: All Protect Orb KQM4W3H2: Gold Scope P326J5WX: Joy Ribbon JTN34N92: Joy Seed KQ5ST45X: Reviver Seeds x 3
I compared my 46 with Ouro's 47 and timed the differences between Wii U DS VC and DS.
Please don't be afraid, Wii U VC saves a lot of time over DS and those numbers are correct.
I only timed the first two worlds yet, but I nevertheless estimate that the total difference is between 2:30 - 3 minutes
World 1: ~21.10 seconds World 2: ~33.10 seconds (~54.20) World 3: World 4: World 5: World 6: World 7:
If you are a Wii U runner and want to compare your time against DS runners, you basically have to add the final number to your time.
It has been recently discovered by Halqery that it is possible to manipulate Quiz RNG by pressing the "New Game" button on the first possible frame to get the same pattern everytime.
However, you can press the A button a few frames before the title screen is fully loaded which means you have a slightly wider window to hit the first possible frame. This trick is not frame perfect therefore
Note: It seems like the questions on the first possible frame depend on the region, as I have an entirely different pattern with my Darkness PAL version than Halqery with his Darkness NTSC one.

Chromatrope made a nice comparison that shows how big the difference among the platforms are in the first cutscene of Chapter 1
In this video,
-
Wii U VC is considered the fastest platform (10 seconds faster than DS, 5 seconds faster than Emulator)
-
Emulator is slower than Wii U VC, faster than DS (5 seconds faster than DS, 5 seconds slower than Wii U)
-
DS/3DS is the slowest platform
Wii U VC may save 15-20 minutes over DS in a RTA any% speedrun (rough estimate for now)
Wii U VC is confirmed to be way slower than Emulator and DS for IGT purposes since it's IGT does count loading times (~19 minutes). However, it's also being faster than Emulator and DS/(n)3DS in RTA (~10 minutes).
DS/(n)3DS and Emulator are 100% accurate with their IGT, so RTA would just add more inaccuracies to the main platforms. So we decided to keep IGT as main timing. All RTA times get shown nevertheless to be still capable of comparing all times. Runs are also not getting obsoleted if done on different platforms
