FINAL VERDICT: I would love the game on the PCE. If creative folks wanted to change/modify things, I would *not* stop them.
It would be neat to recreate the SNES aesthetic on PCE, just to prove it could be done (for a level or two or a boss fight), but other parts of the game to be PCE aesthetic.
A playable, awesome, proof-of concept built into a playable game.
OBVIOUSLY I AM DAYDREAMING.
Let me fantasize about this.
Don't point out the absurdities/impracticalities.
