- mattl 10y agoThere are lots of ports from the 8-bit home computer era which don't have this problem. See for example, the number of ZX Spectrum ports to the Amstrad CPC machines.
- Narishma 10y agoYes, and they usually were terrible ports. They ran poorly and didn't take advantage of the CPC's better hardware.
