Another question I have about the Japanese Version: is the kanji (adult mode) or the hiragana (child mode) faster for RTA? I don't know anything about Japanese 😅

Hey all,

I know this is a pretty elementary question, but I'm having trouble finding the answer anywhere. I just got my Japanese cartridge of the game and I'm wondering how do you get a 00:00 new game + file in this version. It doesn't seem to auto-save after the intro. Thanks to anyone who can help me with this!

What do you guys think the best Emulator to run Fusion on would be? I just got a pc controller and want to start streaming from an emulator.

Okay, segmented runs never crossed my mind, so that makes sense. I guess I think it should be looked at a little too much by trust rather than hardcore evidence. I hope to get a gameboy player like you suggested so that I can record runs, but it seems like a bad thing to spend money on for me right now, and it sucks that there's not really an alternative. I'm certainly not a hardcore gamer, so all this equipment is not nearly as commonplace for me as it is for those who are. The loophole of segmented runs really renders my suggestion unusable, and I wish there were some better way to go about verifying runs, but I guess that for now, there just isn't. Thanks for listening though, I'm glad to know my concerns can be heard when I have them.

I understand this, but can anyone seriously question the authenticity of a video of someone holding their gameboy with the time and percentage appearing on the screen during the video? Seeing this would certainly authenticate a run. What good does seeing the entire run do when there is no legitimate doubt that the run is real? I don't think anyone on here is petty enough to submit a fake sub-50 run, and if people were that petty, they would submit fake runs above 50min all the time. In all the times I have submitted runs, their authenticity has not been questioned once. Theoretically, anyone who submits a 50+ run, whether it is real or not, can get verified. I just don't see why a video of the entire run would be necessary when all doubt can be cleared by a video of the ending sequence (not a picture, but an actual video going from the end of the credits to the time and % being displayed on the screen). Some of us may not have the resources to buy more stuff so that we can record runs to satisfy the requirements on here, and we shouldn't have to. It is unreasonable that I could submit a 50min run without question, but when I want to submit a 49, I all of a sudden need to produce a video of the entire run, when a video of just the time of that run and myself would be beyond sufficient. I don't want to come off as ranting here, but I think this new requirement should be discussed. I understand that y'all probably don't take me very seriously because I haven't achieved the sub-50 time this is about, but I think the principle should be discussed before it becomes an issue.

I noticed that for Any% it now says that all sub-50 runs need video proof. I don't quite have a convenient way to record my playing on my gba right now, so if I get a sub-50 time, may I just submit a video of the IGT and % being shown? I can certainly grab my camera and do that while the credits are rolling, but recording a whole run would be beyond inconvenient.

Alright, good to know. Thank you very much!

Are segmented run times legitimate and allowed to be submitted? I personally do not do segmented times, but one of my friends running the game wanted to know.
