The good: By just playing the game in the practice room, several people stopped by to talk to me about the game. Most had a positive reaction to it saying "oh man! this is such a nostalgia bomb!" I told lots of people about the discord and told them that this would be a great game to learn for the 12-Hour Speedrun Challenge that's usually done after AGDQ.

The bad: When I showed potential watchers/runners the src page, most people were disappointed to learn that the community runs mostly on emulator. I talked with a few runners at length about how for a lot of us, it boils down to time, resources (such as consoles & cables), and money to run the game, and sometimes, those things are hard to come by, which is why some of us lean towards emulator. I also mentioned how the community's thought process was "why ban something when we are just starting out? Let's get more runners and then separate the two." While they understood both of these things, it was reiterated to me by several people, including staff at GDQ, that emulator runs would not be accepted into the marathon. One runner put it this way: It's hard to get on board with emulators because as a moderator, there's no way for me to do my job effectively verifying runs. With emulator, I'd have to make sure everyone had access to the same computer with the same specs and hardware, and it's just not possible for me to go to every house of every runner and verify this. This is why emulators are usually banned or heavily discouraged and a big turn off for most runners.

So I guess my question for all of us is this: How serious are we about trying to get a nicktoons game into a GDQ? Because if we are going to make a solid effort, I think we've probably come to the point where we might need to make a decision about emulation and console runs.

Personally, I'd love to see any of the nicktoons games in a GDQ, but I just want to make sure we don't shoot ourselves in the foot. I wanted to make this information known now because I don't want people to work on a great submission for six months only to be told "no" purely on the basis of it's emulated.
