Can I speedrun on a modded Wii?

Hello, I have been speedruning Super Mario 64 since around March of last year (I think) and I've been thinking about recording and submitting runs. I mainly play on N64, but I also kind of want to run on VC. The thing is that I've been thinking about modding my Wii. I mainly want to do this to add more VC games I didn't get as a kid, but Mario 64 was one of the handful of games that I already own. Here comes the question, am I able to do speedruns of Super Mario 64 on a modded Wii, even if the game is official?

I'm not sure if they allow it. However, I think since you aren't allowed to use everdrive, I don't think it'll be allowed. But like I said, I don't know if they do allow it or not. Unless someone comes out and confirms that you can, just stick with the actual console.

Yes i think you should be able to by modded do you mean hardware mod? or homebrew? if homebrew just dont use hacks, simple. :P

I just would like to add the homebrew channel and a wad manager to add some virtual console games such as Ocarina of Time, Super Metroid, Super Castlevania 4, etc. It wouldn't really give me an advantage to Mario 64. I'm probably going to do it either tonight or tomorrow anyway, and if it makes vc runs invalid then oh well.

Replacing Expiring Twitch VODs

If you wish to replace your twitch highlights with reuploads, please edit your already verified run rather than deleting the verified run and making a new submission. This makes it a lot easier for us to track which submissions are reuploads and should be less work on your part as well.
