By the way luma.dash, the images you speak of are not true to the developers. That is what I am trying to say. Truth is a matter of perspective. For any emulators sake, an emulator cannot emulate anything which isn't originally within the game's files. At least for Desmume or No$GBA, you cant physically mod it either. You could of course say that the higher-quality one are not true to the developers, but my image sample provided where the ACTUAL CODES which tells the hardware to place shading on Sonic's head is properly displayed when the original console version does not. As I said, emulators cannot emulate anything which isn't originally within the game's file, meaning the developers initially intended to add details like that in the first place, otherwise why would that shadow pop up out of no where? i.e the image format may not be 100% authentic to the original displaying hardware, but it is in many cases accurately portrays what the developers intended to have.

Thats how stagnation happens if people do not discuss issues. I would have no problems putting this discussion behind us if you meet 2 conditions:

Condition 1: You are the Master Admin (eg. The first guy who created this Wikia site) who's word is automatically law

Condition 2: An actual legit Sega/Sonic Team or affiliate personnel comes on here and tells you or me to stop it.

The point is, at least in anology, is that I am not shattering the mirror or scratching or scribbling over it, but instead, wiping the dust off of it so the mirror reflects and displays better than what it originally did, or what it originally was intended to do.

Because with the situation given right now, your words, opinions and decisions are as good as Luma.Dash's (and Genesjs but he had his higher-admin rights revokes for being MIA so his authority is somewhat questionable at least) since both of you are on equally high positions of administrators? If no other higher-power is here to provide an absolute solution or conclusion to this discussion, then it will be left up democratically. That is the most logical way I can see this going.

We could find and grab any random Sonic-loving cuck who has no idea about this discussion or much knowledge of Emulators whom has sufficient experience with Sonic DS games and let him either play or watch gameplay videos of Sonic DS games with the polished version then ask him whether he notices anything out of the ordinary, or anything different at all. We dont even show him or her the image comparisons. If they say they dont see anything significantly different at all, then thats that. If they pick out something then, well...
