!!!Rules in submitting movies

We accept these movies:
* Famtasia movie files (FMV) (NES / Famicom)
* snes9x movie files (SMV) (SNES / Super Famicom)
* Gens movie files (GMV) (Sega Genesis)

Nothing else is accepted.
We also don't accept multimedia files (AVI, WMV and so on) for various reasons.

!!!Rules in tool-assisted movie making

!!Famtasia is NTSC - the game should be NTSC as well.

PAL NES games (most European games) are not allowed, unless the
USA version does not work.%%%
The problem is that PAL versions play 20% too fast.

!!The games must be real
 
The movie should look like it could have been played with
an authentic hardware. This makes it more familiar to the
audience.

This details to the following points:
 
!Hacked games are not allowed
   
An exception to this are hacks which only make the
game playable on an emulator.
 
!Game genie codes etc are not allowed

!Cheat-keys and debugging codes are not allowed

Such as Konami's up+up+down+down+etc sequence.%%%
If the key sequence is mentioned in the manual as a normal
means of playing, it is (usually) allowed.

!Out-of-emulation postprocessing, such as video editing, is not allowed

(Non-gameplay-altering edits such as adding subtitles
are not forbidden.)
