Hey guys, last night I did 2 runs on SFC. The second one is attached to this post. I ordered an SFC cart and tried it out after NewSchoolBoxer's forum post pointed out the changes in leveling. In the post, I estimated this version of the game would save about 90 seconds or so - turns out it saves a bit more than that. This run wasn't particularly great and the time is already at 58:29. I haven't submitted it yet as I'd like to get yall's opinion.
Should we have a separate category for SFC? The run is quite a bit easier due to leveling. Most games will just incorporate Japanese versions for various reasons into their leaderboard alongside the NA versions. However, like many other versions of Ogre Battle, the slight tweak to experience/battles/spawns makes it distinguishable from the others. My vote is to create a separate category (I know we already have a lot), but I am biased due to the amount of effort and difficulty this took for the sub-hour run on SNES. Would like to hear what everyone thinks.
