SoE console vs emulator (explosion comparison)

Console Explosion Start//End:
-- 4:22.45 // 4:33.82
----> ~11.37
-- white screen = end?
Emulator Explosion Start//End: (RetroArch with bsnes mercury core)
-- 4:28.89 // 4:40.34
----> ~11.55

This data is being pulled from the two most recent WR/PB's.
It is meant to demonstrate whether or not explosions on emulator have an advantage over console.
The current theory is that they do not, as the game is emulated perfectly fine everywhere else.
This data is NOT 100% accurate, for various reasons. As such, it should only reveal a significant difference, if any.
