I don't really get the whole MAME thing, since they have scores on there that are listed as MAME.

But yeah, the one with the board switch is faked video.

Is it really that bad if the score is on an emulator or whatever MAME is?

It means they're no longer sure if it was a single session. He could've been able to save state to get better scores or even tool-assist it.

Isn't it also possible that he could be playing on a hacked ROM? There's a lot of randomness to Donkey Kong, but if you're playing on MAME you could use a romhack that tilts things in your favor. For example iirc smashing a barrel is worth either 300, 500, or 800 points and how much you get is completely random, but with a modified ROM you could make 800 come up more often.

That is a possibility and I wouldn't be surprised if true. All we know now, though, is he was using mame, and my points are why those records were thrown out. The romhack thing would take a lot more investigation.
