The actual nice thing about those packages was the straightforward support they provided for the mostly gaming-oriented hardware features in those machines (particularly the Amiga). In this way, they were close precursors to present-day game engines like Godot. And this also creates a conundrum for anyone wanting to bring the originals back, of course - do you reimplement their actual features, even if this means basically emulating a legacy platform?
