... (su segnalazione di Igor) ovvero della serie: lo facciamo davvero soffrire quel povero Motorola 68030 (e infatti l'emulazione è molto lenta e abbastanza "glitchosa"... ma si tratta pur sempre di un computer che ha esordito nel 1992...):
"It's slow and has still graphic glitches but the emulator runs so far quite well.
The video shows the NEO GEO game Metal Slug running on an Atari Falcon 030. The Falcon is a stock Falcon running at 16 MHz and has 14 MB RAM equipped.
Actually the emulator binary is in fact only about 8 kB in size and also only the NEO GEO BIOS was patched at three addresses to get it through the initialisation process. Please note that the game is playable but the huge graphics memory requirement makes it hard to fit all the graphics within 14 MB (Metal Slug uses 16 MB of graphics alone)."
