Прикол в том, что мы уже поговорили, и мое мнение - нам нужно знать, как выглядит эта игра на телевизоре (и подобные ей). Если там добавляются полоски, то сам понимаешь. Если нет, поменяю тот пункт в гайде и переделаю энкоды. Но проблема в том, что там надо того, у кого есть сега и хотя бы одна игра, работающая в лоурезе.
И да, не "сеньор публикатор", а старший паблишер. Мы ж не в Италии :D

To find out how it should look, one needs to see how it looks on TV+console.
As for the guide, this line has been there since 2010-07-09, as in, from the very beginning. I guess sgrunt contacted some people who were around back then, and they decided to disable aspect ratio correction. I wonder if it was actually wrong.
EDIT:
Found the trace of it. Also, by sgrunt, 2010-04-08 (heh, I wasn't even around yet):

mz: Hi there, for the first time we meet :)
Emulator code being total trash is a problem, but it's a development problem. As for TASing, if there's no one who can make a decent run with (current) mame-rr, then its movies can't be accepted. But if there is a geek who can finish it, why not?
Sure, we'd be using a better alternative, if there was one. I don't know if you're still interested in this project, but it'd be amazing if you were. For instance, I was interested in hacking pcsx (that's how I started learning C), it helped with some terrible problems regarding encoding. As soon as the most ugly problem was solved, I let pcsx go. All the rest was just a hobby.

Shiru is registered here, I think he can add a difficulty level if we ask well :)

Not exactly comparable. While being of the same level of unnotability, no one ever took Alter Ego as a port of something all know. It looked exactly as a brand fresh game. Here, the impression is spoiled by how absurdly famous the original is, hence the fame of the port kind of fades, even if it betters the original by more than in the Alter Ego case. However, I'm not stating any preference here, just the facts how I see them.
Right, as soon as I count your (and turska's) opinion on how the provided data is a proof of notability, I notice people thinking it's not enough.
You know what? This port is better than Alter Ego by all means. It's not some crappy self-made piece of FRENDSHIP we want to avoid publishing. I actually think it deserves being accepted!

This is exactly how I see it. Back then (before heavy mapper abuse was invented gosh was it long ago) NES was that limited, and it was maximum it could give. 9 active objects including the players.

It's interesting, even after unrejecting, all I can see in this thread regarding how worthy the game is is uncertainty. A handful of people think it's a decent game (and popular "enough"), some think it's not. Yes, we have people out there that like it, it is known, but I don't think it fits into what we want from a game and a TAS of it, especially having people looking at the original and preferring it.
My personal opinion is that it's decent and known, and has something one may like, but while being known, it doesn't actually look unique and notable. If no new people appear who still think it is, I'll reject it in a few days.
Senior Judge thinking it is notable is another issue. Should I blindly rely on that?

Want an explanation? There you go.
I already watched (and accepted) the any% run of this game, and I have a strong certainty that this run is of the same technical quality. So accepting it is the most probable scenario, but I need to make sure all the coins are really picked.
And no, I'm not getting tired of judging, like, ever.

Is there a way to check that there are no missed coins?

Do you think I was requesting it because I don't know what's happening? I know.

Or rather winning in the -world on FDS (includes wall entering) and why it can't be done on NES?

I just went through all the current movie and couldn't improve anything. You spawned some random passages, but never answered the question about whether he fixed the ladders or not. He did.

Different ports are already being published separately for a few years, obsoletion only concerns actually identical ports, which are rare on old consoles.
