Hey ZeroCounts, did you get an answer? I didn't know you were getting into this, but if you need help hit me up.

Hi Zhutousan123, Very nice job on the deathless run! I noticed you used USA 910910 for you submission, which is more accurate to Rev. 2, so I adjusted your submission. Looking forward to watching and verifying more of your runs. Welcome to the community!

Well, I have to agree with the above and say that with the new evidence, I would be comfortable with allowing BSNES/Higan/Bizhawk as it is pretty clear here that the systems are emulating with accuracy to the console. I also agree that input display or whole window capture of the emulator would be appreciated to ensure legitimacy. This is not the first time we have discussed this, but we were always unable to move forward due to lack of sufficient evidence of the accuracy of Emulators compared to the console. Thank you Spriven for gathering this information and crunching the numbers and thank you to the community for helping him out. I would still like to hear more of the community voice their thoughts here as this rule was standing long before I joined the discussion. Hoping to come to a conclusion this time.
