I don't really think that using The Oregon Trail is a great way to start off Apple II TASing. Meh vote.
On the bright side, it's nice to see a console that hasn't seen any TASes yet get a TAS of its own.

I'm disappointed by the lack of getting 99 lives, too. Who cares about that, though? I was anticipating this run since I first went to this site! Yes vote.

This game is one heck of an enigma. With the level design copied from Super Mario Bros., the sounds and music stolen from Pokémon Pinball, the graphics stolen from several other games, and the ending being "Donkey Kong came"...
I have no clue what is going on, but it forced me to give a Yes vote because of that ending.

A nightmarish tale about a young boy whose name is such a Lovecraftian monstrosity that everyone who pronounces it starts babbling mindlessly and all sorts of supernatural stuff happens. It was a fun, short, glitchy run, so I'll vote yes.
This. Oh, and yes vote for being pretty hilarious.

I'm back again, and here are a few bugs I've reported for some more games.
GAME BOY/COLOR
Captain Knick-Knack (unlicensed): Boots up to a black white screen.
Microsoft Entertainment Pack: The moment this game is loaded, the emulator crashes.
Spiritual Warfare: Same as Captain Knick-Knack.
The Holy Bible: New International Version (unlicensed): Sure, there are graphics of the text, but they just didn't get loaded properly: GENESIS
Might & Magic: Gates to Another World: I have nothing to say about this screenshot when I went to delete a character: NES
Bill & Ted's Excellent Video Game Adventure: This game doesn't even load--it just loads up a black screen.
Final Fantasy: The screen transitions look different, and the battles are considerably slower than normal.
Gauntlet: I've only tested this in 1.7.4, and rewinding seems to cause BizHawk to crash.
Rocman X (unlicensed): When you take damage, the emulator crashes.

I'd love to see a 100% run of Shantae, too, but I'd like to see runs of these someday:
- Donkey Kong Land 2 and 3
- Lemmings & Oh No! More Lemmings, in the wake of [1252] SNES Lemmings "best ending" by Lord_Tom in 1:03:04.45
- Looney Tunes Collector: Martian Alert
- Marvin Strikes Back!, a ROM hack sequel to the above
- Vegas Stakes
- Yu-Gi-Oh! Dark Duel Stories

I'm not TASing them, I'm just playing them.
Then I recommend you test your games in endrift's mGBA. Like Anty-Lemon said, it aims to fix all bugs in GBA emulation. If the emulation issues are still there, please post your results here or through the bug reporting options on the site.
I tested Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls, and there aren't any graphical glitches. When I get a chance, I'll test the other games, but I'll exclude Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team since endrift said that works perfectly fine.

Game Boy Advance emulation is still somewhat inaccurate. I've listed the GBA games that I've tested and found issues with below.
Final Fantasy I & II: Dawn of Souls: Graphical glitches occur fairly often when a text box appears. Proof:
Final Fantasy IV Advance: Same as above. Proof:
Hamtaro: Ham-Ham Heartbreak: You can't make any progress past the naming screen.
LEGO Racers 2: The game freezes and makes annoying noises if you try to go through the story mode.
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team: You can't save the game.
EDIT: I tested all these with 1.9.1, and I'll add more games when I test them.
