Please note I made a slight change to the rules just so new players can see it. These are strong suggestions and runs will not be instantly rejected by not doing them. Do not feel obligated to spend money on this (such as a split input for Everdrive) or if you have a Retroarch cabinet/setup you wish to use, etc.

I hope they will help avoid ambiguity or issues that may develop as emulation and speedrunning evolve over the years.

What I changed: If you can display inputs, that's useful to help validate runs. Please avoid using Retroarch if you can. FCEUX and Mesen work quite well and have tools to help validate runs.

This will help with validating runs, especially as they become faster. Should there be an issue with validating runs in the future, this will help address potential problems that are not known currently.
