May I use an emulator to do my runs? For economic reasons I probably won't ever be able to get a wii any time soon and there are a few good wii emulators out there. Surely if I just prove that I did not enable any cheats or anything then its ok if I play on an emulator?

Unfortunately, emulators are banned for all Wii Series games. However, you can probably buy a Wii and Wii Play somewhere on Amazon relatively cheap!

@Lugia2468 Not right: Emulators are allowed for some Wii Series games, these include: Wii Sports, Wii Music, Wii Chess, Wii Fit U, Wii Party U

But in Wii Play the use of an emulator is not allowed. [You can get a Wii console for about 50$ (or cheaper) when you are lucky and the game for about 10$.]
