fastest version?!

there are many versions of legend of zelda.

which one is the fastest? does it matter if you have japanese character or are everyone the same?

--

For Zelda 2:

The different versions are treated as different categories, because the versions are actually coded differently and not just ports/translations, however:

The Japanese FDS version is likely fastest for 100% all keys, but it's not 100%. Wii VC version faster due to faster load times.

The US NES version is fastest for all other categories.

For the Legend of Zelda:

The Japanese Famicom version is slightly faster, due to text, but hat difference should be accounted for when comparing runs.

Not sure what's faster between Japanese FDS and US NES versions, due to FDS load times.
