It's common knowledge that in most speedgames, the most popular version to run is the Japanese version, as well as unpatched, 1.0 versions of games. This is mostly because of glitches. However, are there any reversals to this? Are there any games where PAL (the usual slowest version) is better for speedrunning than Japanese? As well as any games where newer versions than unpatched are faster? I would like to know.
