You _might_ have some luck converting NES sound to a slight
approximation of AY (mockingboard) sound.  However, the NES color
palette goes beyond the // DHGR palette, and the resolution is hight as
well, I believe.  A full-out game conversion wouldn't be possible for
the simple fact the NES had sprite hardware and the // does not.  If
you were to convert a game somehow, it would be slooooooow and have
very odd-looking colors.  Hence, ports are more the name of the game.

That being said, it might be interesting to see who can write a //e
port of the legend of zelda.  ;-)
