You say it's a fair price in the beginning, but your last sentence seems to contradict that. It's like you're saying: "20 dollars is a lot, so they better justify it by at least giving you flawless emulation".

More the point that some of the emulation faults on NSO I overlook a little bit because its not a dedicated release people have individually paid for. If it is however, I really expect certain things to be improved, whether it be lag or certain levels/FX not rendering as intended. Unlikely to rear its head for a GB game but I've had noticed it with the N64 offerings, including frame drops etc.

GBA emulation on NSO is actually quite excellent (unlike N64 and Gamecube). It passes the AGS test (a hardware check to see if things are working correctly on the GBA), something not even the current main mainstream unofficial emulator (mGBA) can do.

Now, since FRLG is gonna be a standalone release made by The Pokémon Company, it's yet to be seen if they are gonna use the same emulator or something different which could potentially be worse than NSO (it would be VERY impressive if it was similar quality or better).
