Those sorts of things can absolutely happen. Newer versions of games often either patch issues on older versions or there may be some glitches that are not as easy to take advantage of when the hardware isn't struggling as much.

The Zelda Speedruns site even maintains a list of version differences for various Zelda games which make a difference to which version is optimal to run.
