It's my first time submitting a run. I started the timer as soon as i hit 1Player and not when gaining control of my character which loses around 8 seconds ( I hope that doesn't disqualify me). The link shows proof of the run. I had to upload it on Youtube since Twitch only allows affiliates to upload since 10th of April. I was speedrunning the game on Twitch. I used Bizhawk as Emulator and LiveSplit for the Timer. I included Splits for the stages 1 to 6 and at the end ( I stopped the timer as soon as I lost control of the character). The time stops at 16:33.If there is any doubt or questions I still have the LiveSplit Timer and the complete stream file.
We have decided to split the leaderboards into "original version" and "anniversary collection". Anniversary collection is very different (way Faster) and therefore not comparable with the other allowed systems/emulators. The Anniversary Collection however is an official release and it is also good,
