As a DKR runner, I support an emulator category as a separate board. However they must be separate, as from my experience from both, they are completely different games. No lag completely changes this game, it doesn't feel the same and if you adapt to emulator, you are at an extreme advantage if both console and emulator are on the same board. I support emulator as a means to get into the game, as it was how I got into videogames and speedrunning.
