One thing I gotta complain about is it seems they want to make the GBA versions of some classic SNES titles the "Nintendo Canon" versions, which they may well be perfectly fine but I'd like to have the SNES ones as an option.

It's the GBA one sadly. Idk why or what the difference is but I just started playing it and will report back. Right off the bat the music seems worse but that could be nostalgia talking.

I know speed runners hate that one and even though I don't care about speed running that particular game it might be a problem with lag or who knows what, I forgot the reasoning.,

If speedrunners hate it its probably because they patched out bugs.

probably bug patching, but on an actual GBA (maybe also even gba emulation?) it has really big framerate drops on top of whatever other problems.

iirc they also changed some of the sound effects for some reason

Life is more than a series of ones and zeroes.
The GBA version added the Yoshi noises so it's automatically worse.

You know they say that all demons are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Pyro Jack and you can see that statement is not true, hee-ho!

The SNES one isn't available because I guess the Super FX chip is impossible to emulate or something

Also: Nintendo is rolling out a system where you can put the Wii disc in of a Wii game available on their store (for example, Super Mario Galaxy 2) and it will let you download and play the Wii U upscaled version

I have Metroid Prime for gamecube, and the Prime Trilogy for wii, and I even ripped the drat disc so I could play it with a pro controller (see my Metroid thread for the pics), and I'm still gonna pay the 10 bucks for the Wii U Prime Collection because it's the best drat game around and I love it so much.
