There is a separate leaderboard for that version here:

If you're referring to simply running a GameCube game on a Wii console, then no, it has no reason to be considered emulation because it is all being run on official hardware

Best way to start is by joining the discord, asking questions, and watching runs

That is currently being discussed

It's very likely, yes

Another copy will use 1.1.2, but you can use your current physical cart on 1.0 if you factory reset your switch

The feature where you sync your version with a friend's can't downgrade any version, it can only update. The only way for you to downgrade your version would be to either mod your switch, or factory reset the switch, which brings the physical version down to 1.0, then play on the physical version. Afterward, if you want to update from 1.0 to 1.1.0, you can use the version syncing feature with a friend who has 1.1.0. A person near you with this version would probably be hard to find though.

You won't be able to keep your save data afaik unfortunately.

A few reasons I imagine. First there are a lot of them, and they're all identical. And second, there's nothing really interesting or unique about them.

So we'd be looking at several tens of IL levels that are all the exact same and just consist of Link sprinting past a chest and then hitting A at the end after 2 seconds.

If you're on digital, the only way to downgrade your version is by modding your switch.

If you're on physical, you can either mod your switch, or factory reset the switch which will bring the version down to 1.0. Afterward, if you want to update to a version like 1.1.1, but not to 1.1.2, you'll need to find a friend in person who has the version you want, and sync your version with their switch.

Afaik all priiloader does is load from disc drive, so it should be fine

Here is a route for 100% (with DLC) fully glitchless and casual-friendly: https://github.com/31PNMR/Hundo-EX-Glitchless

Here is a vid showcasing the route as well:

Started with Twilight Princess any% in 2014, and have mainly run that game since. I've also done several other Zelda games, including OoT for a brief bit, and a few non-Zelda games here and there

Is this game still obtainable on Android? I can't seem to find a proper APK anywhere. I did runs of the game (don't remember my PB but it was sub 2) way back many years ago, and would love to play the game again. Thanks

As far as I'm aware, no such thing has been figured out as of yet. The community is continuing to search for a possible way to do perhaps that, and just skip the hyrule gate/barrier in general.

Skyreon's tutorial may be the best option right now when it comes to that. It definitely gives plenty of information on the run in general, excluding a few newer tricks like early BK in city and poe skip, which are in other videos and stuff so you can still learn them. I also recommend watching runs as well so you know routing, different setups for tricks, and things like that. ZSR also has tons of useful information

With Doomfist coming out, I thought a good way to manage leaderboard might be to change the name of the current one to "Pre-Doomfist" and have the main leaderboard utilize him. And so forth for future characters.

It might also be a good idea to specify in the rules that "Eliminated Training Bot" should be seen for every bot, (doesn't have to be in the kill feed as long as you get credit for eliminating). This has confused some.

You guys are right. Thank you for pointing this out. I don't know why I forgot it, must have assumed the bot died I guess. I'll take out my run

My run is here:

This works and would make a fun leaderboard

Basically, go on the practice range, and start by selecting genji. I go through the practice range killing all 11 bots once, then enter the spawn area again, and select the next hero, being mccree. I rotate through every character as fast as possible killing the 11 bots with each of them and end when I enter the spawn area after killing all bots as zenyatta. It's also fun to have splits for each hero and get best segments

If anyone wants to know, the iOS version is much faster and more consistent than android because of a few tricks impossible on android and the level with the falling white chunks blocking the exit to phase 5 not being a luck grind
