Does Nintendont count as an emulator for the purpose of the leaderboard?

For those who have not heard of it, it is an application for Wii which allows users to load GCN ISO files from an SD card or USB storage device. Otherwise, the game runs natively.

late af response but usually it makes load times faster and ruse found it to be about 1 minute difference but we would most likely have to compare your load times and find the difference, but yes it is allowed as long as you account for the difference in load times and add it to the final time
