Hi, i live in the UK and am interested in starting speed running the early Mario games on NES. I am aware that there is some difference between the PAL systems and TVs in my country and the NTSC ones found in NA and Japan. Id like to know what equipment i should be getting to optimally run these games.

I found a Matsui 14TVDVR1 CRT TV in my house and it says it has "NTSC playback (PAL60Hz)" but i'm new to this kind of tech am i'm not sure exactly what this means

Would this TV work with an NTSC NES or am i really over complicating this, if so what equipment should i get to run these games. Id really like to know what other people in PAL regions use. Thank you for your time all feedback is welcome
