Sup guys,

One of my favorite games as a kid was Metroid, specifically the one on the GBA - Metroid Zero Mission. I've completed the games several times, but I'm hoping to take it to the next level.

I'm looking for some help setting everything up, any advice would be appreciated

Welcome, as for equipment you generally use Livesplit as a timer: http://livesplit.org/downloads/

To record it, perhaps the most popular software to use is OBS Studio: https://obsproject.com/ Though you need a somewhat beefy computer to record with it, and it does tend to crash.

As you are running a gba game, you can either use an emulator (emulators that are allowed vary between games). If you want to run off a system, you can use a game boy player with a gamecube and use an av to hdmi converter and plug it into a capture card like an Elgato, (though GV-USB2 is also a popular option and doesnt have HDMI input)

Your next best shot would be playing the game on an original ds and playing the game through slot 2, and record it with a DS capture board (Find out more information at http://3dscapture.com/ds/ )
