I have learned the entire run on Genesis but I notice few runner are using the original Genesis. Are PC, Emu, or WiiVC faster to run on instead? I.E. do those versions run faster/lag less? or is the difference between platforms insignificant?

Also would running on the Atgames Classic Genesis or Atgames Genesis Flashback be allowed, since they are official consoles both known to run at a slightly faster clock speeds than the original? However I would certainly understand if the answer to that were no.

WiiVC is believed to be slightly faster. The steam port is also allowed.

Rules are up to halfbakedprophet, but I would say those consoles are probably allowed since they are official releases.
