From personal experience in the simulator training industry I have observed countless cases of landing long and if the "runway" had been on the limiting length dry or wet for the aircraft configuration, an overrun would certainly have been on the cards.
This would suggest that particular simulator has a problem?

JAA-STD-1A.30 (m) or equivalent defines the requirements for both dry and contaminated runways for level C & D FFSs.

Modern visual databases ‘should’ reflect the real world for runway lengths at least. If all other parameters are correct then it should be very representative of the flight test aircraft data.

(It would be pretty pointless training this on a generic database).
