SNES Classic Text timesave
The SNES Classic saves some time over SNES and emualtor on long NPC interactions (specifically on textboxes that scroll multiple lines at a time).
The timesave on all NPC interactions across an Any% NMG run is documented on this spreadsheet
Total relative time difference
Any% NMG (assuming 1:25:00 run)
- Time loss due to FPS differences: 8.398s
- Time saved from text: 4.44s
- Total timeloss: 3.958s
Master Sword NMG (assuming 22:00 run)
- Time loss due to FPS differences: 2.174s
- Time saved from text: 2.872s
- Total timeloss: -0.699s (or 0.699 seconds saved)
