Is it fair game if I use Dolphin Emulator(I own the original game)? It's easier for me to record and do everything properly

4 me too but I think it isnt allowed.

Is it ok if I just show my whole screen with time desktop everything?

game rules: "Using any USB loader or any emulator isn't allowed"
literaly a respond for this topic: https://www.speedrun.com/nsmbw/thread/rhxii
it has been kind of discussed before and i think their are definitely not allowing it

@KKOJJGSSKKOJJGSS you only need a full video in real time with all of your gameplay visible to be verificated, is allowed any kind of things like puting your phone in a side directly to the TV and that

ok thx

@Bush420Bush420 Whether you have the real game or not, emulation requires a file that is an unofficial release of the game. Giving that emulators provide options to change the game's functions, the possibility of someone trying to sneak some sort of cheat in is there. However, there is a leaderboard created for emulators. It is not official and will never be put on the speedrun.com leaderboards.
