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. ;-)
