Because the hardware clones are not sufficient. You need to make a sort of menu system + deal with hardware connections.
Simple ARM chip + software emulator means you could just do everything one one chip without headaches. Plus it'll likely be cheaper.
- pjc50 10y agoThose are usually rolled into the hardware clones in various ways. e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C64_Direct-to-TV https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C64_Direct-to-TV (single chip ASIC C64) It could be software emulation, but that's slightly less reliable, and has a boot time which may not be negligible.
