A TAS that's been played back on genuine original hardware through the controller ports and completed without desyncing. It's the gold-standard proof the run isn't just emulator magic.

Used to separate legit runs from emulator-only oddities, since some glitches and exploits behave differently on real silicon than they do in emulation.
