Well separating DS version is obvious when anyone wants to run that, but what about the differences between Wii and PS2?

I haven't played the PS2 version myself, only the Wii version, so someone who knows better should decide this. As far as I know there are less racers on track in the PS2 version, but more playable characters to choose, and the controls are noticeably different (motion controls vs. standard controller). Also there's one more track in the PS2 version, Skorost. Not sure how this affects the Championships and Classes. We'll have to see. I would definitely make sub categories for Wii and PS2 separately.

I tried playing the Wii version myself, and there are some graphical differences between them. Wii looks better without a doubt. I beat a little of Class 4 on the PS2 version, and I can say there are some differences overall with how races go. Class 1 is virtually unaffected, but the other classes has that extra track, which affects how the races are set up. For starters, there's 1 more championship in both Class 2 and 3. I believe the length of the races are also different, you could say more balanced on PS2 than Wii. The extra championships will add time for sure, but the length of the tracks seem to build up to the last championship of Class 3, the clockwise and counter-clockwise of the Grand Prix. If there's other races on the Wii version's last championship, that only proves my point since I haven't been able to keep doing that because of forced motion controls.

I'll also say that the PS2 version is more fun to play because flipping around is all up to pressing a button, and spinning into any and all is the same way. The Wii version auto-sticks you to the track, the PS2 version does not. I haven't noticed on Wii, but I think the PS2 AI might also be a little more or less aggressive, but I cannot confirm that. I haven't played any of the DS version, but maybe that has some exclusive stuff too.

On an emulated note, Wii's loading times were abysmal. You could question existence in the time it takes before something happens. The PS2, I don't think it's as bad, I haven't played in a while, but I would remember long loading times there too. In terms of problems, I haven't seen much issue with either version aside from the Wii's disregarding of the FMVs playing in the intro and character select, though I've noticed the PS2 emulator softlocking itself while loading some courses on multi-core. At least the game autosaves after every race.

With this info, I can agree to separate the boards by version. Maybe we could also have an all classes tab that doesn't include Class 4? That's just mirror mode and adds fluff to something that's already fluffed. It also feels arbitrary considering it technically ends once Chim Chim is unlocked. maybe it's Any% for unlocking Chim Chim from a new file? Certainly is a lot faster that way than navigating menus, and makes it a lot easier when trying to complete each class individually or in order, and makes verifying a lot easier too since playing from a new file auto-puts you on the new races you unlocked. Mash X to speedrun the menu as it were lol.

Thanks for the detailed response.

I believe the DS version should be separated from the Wii and PS2 versions of the game, because it is a completely different platform and has different content (7 cup races in 3 difficulty levels).

So should the PS2 and Wii, as explained by @EBTKSPaddy. No need for new game page, just do everything on here, separate consoles by subcategories.

Je veux faire des speedruns mais étant dans l'imcapacité d'acquérir un capteur vidéo et ne voulant pas émuler Speed Racer,je ne pourrai pas montré mais speedruns avant quelque mois.

Je joues à Speed Racer depuis 2010 jusqu'à ces jours et les jours suivants. J'ai toujours révé de faire des speedruns et quand j'ai vu qu'il avait une catégorie Speed Racer je me dis que c'était le moment de saisir ma chance. J'ai fait la classe 1 en 26:36 25. Et la classe 2 en 1:13:46 26.

@CrootonAdri 's mesage translated: "I want to do speedruns but being unable to acquire a video capture device and not wanting to emulate Speed Racer, I will not be able to show speedruns for a few months. I have been playing Speed Racer since 2010 up until today. I always dreamed of making speedruns and when I saw that he had a Speed Racer category I told myself that it was time to take my chance. I did Class 1 in 26:36.25. And Class 2 in 1:13:46.26."

Would it be possible to add these runs to the leaderboard? Would help if someone French-speaking could communicate with him.
