Well, of course MY Super Nintendo multitasks! I can play up to 16 games at
one time all on one T.V. screen. Each game gets an ITTY BITTY part of the
screen and as long as I press the control buttons for each concurrent game
ONLY within that game's time slice it works great! Of course since the time
slice is about 1/60 of a second I have to move my fingers QUICKLY.
