    Personally I would buy it to use for speedruns, emulators arent allowed to use in a legit speedrun.

    It's if you're going for official speedrun records. Speedrunners use emulators to practice their speedruns, but when it comes down to it, they have to use the real deal or it wont count.

    Emulation vs. Hardware has always been a hard debate over the years. Some people, myself included prefer Hardware over software if given the option, but if I only have the emulation available, well I guess that's what I have to stick to. Console just feels better than emulation, regardless of how much you can tweak emulators to your advantage.

    In addition, both Banjo games are heavily known to have issues when emulated. I heard one has extreme unstable framerates in several areas-- virtually being unplayable and the other one simply crashes 100% of the time in a certain zone, making it completely unbeatable. (But let that be said, this is only 2 games of the entire bunch, which together both games are around $100 together CIB)

    I had high hopes when PJ 64 2.0 came out that maybe the lock-out patch may have been fixed, but it doesn't seem so according to people who have tested both ROMs.

    I'm just done with those games in general anyway, I like snes/nes over 64 anyway tbh lol. (which emulates perfectly)
