But… why? Like I’m all for getting retro games working again when they dont, but why back port a game like this to an old console? I don’t get it
Because its a challenge for the developer and therefore fun.
It's like making doom run on a pregnancy test.
Yes, definitely!
Wasn't that just getting it to display on a tiny screen? The pregnancy test itself didn't have suitable hardware, or even a suitable screen, as far as I can recall
Spoiler, it didn't run on the test itself. It ran on hardware shoved inside the test shell if I recall right.
It's like kissing that ugly girl in a party nobody wants to partake with -- it's useless and completely unnecessary... but oh boy it sure is fun!
