see what I did there? That was a beautiful joke
For the longest time, the PAL and NTSC version have been submitted upon the same leaderboard. People have previously asked for it to be a separate category from NTSC, as it is quite different and much much slower as of right now (NTSC WR at 4:55, and PAL WR at 5:10, though it's not as optimized)
I know most of you mods are aware that with the TAS of the NTSC version and the PAL version, it is quite perfect, and the PAL version is a whopping 3 seconds faster than NTSC. Maybe the TAS can pull off the insane many 5 full FPGs in a row, but can humans?
As of today I do not know of a single Super Mario Bros. 1 speedrunner who believes full FPG is even possible to pull off in the PAL version as a human, but lets take a moment and say it is indeed possible, and you can get consistent enough at it. Lets say someone manages to beat the NTSC WR on the PAL version, with a whopping 4:53. An unbeatable time using the NTSC version, basically killing that version. If that is something that can happen, will the PAL version be separated from the NTSC version?
TLDR: If someone beats the NTSC WR on the PAL version, will the two versions be separated?
I would like a solid something to happen before that such scenario actually happens
Effective immediately, any submissions using the SNES9x emulator will not be verified. The SMB1 mod team has concerns about its integrity due to its ability to overclock and remove lag frames, which may not be easily detectable. Additionally, we request that all BizHawk submissions avoid using the S
