Switch version works the same as the NES. The same amount of stutter occurs. It should either be allowed in the main categories (my suggestion) or have its own. I'll play through it a few more times, but I know my PB on NES was better than my PB on Switch (and I'm pretty consistent and did get a quick Swami skip), so it doesn't appear to have a noticeable advantage.
I'm not opposed to more categories. I feel like Shadow is definitely a requirement for a 100% run or maybe even "No Shadow Skip" category.
Have we started a community here? Is SDB the next big thing to speedrun? Kappa.
In the off chance that a shot goes high or low and one of the side defenders gets the ball, make sure you hold Left so they face the team when you pass back, otherwise they have a tendency to pass the ball back and forth OVER the opposing team which wastes time.
I imagine it would add a little variety and strategy to the categories. World Tour is pretty straight forward and relies heavily on "luck", especially the India match. For extra fun (and longer times), there could also be a "No Super" category. Imagine SDB taking over an hour, even on Easy or Normal.
