Hey all, new runner here. I recently replaced my non-functional MP DS cartridge, but don't have a capture card so I'll use emu. I have some questions regarding aspects around the story mode, all boards, individual boards, all minigames RTA and 100% categories before I start practicing runs.

What DS emus are allowed and which ones would be the closest/most accurate to a real DS?

Is timing done for everything in general minus Boss Bash as RTA?

All Minigames RTA is just the minigames mode and doesn't include the puzzle minigames right? I remember doing really badly on them as a kid growing up.

Does timing for All Boards end when the last board played shows "You are the Superstar!", and does the timer pause between boards?

Lastly, is there a list or video guide anywhere of everything you need for the gallery in 100% and how to get them? Thanks in advance for any pointers!
