Example: The SNES had some advanced (for the time) video hardware and
 though it had a slower CPU than the Sega Genesis (8 MHz 68000 +
Z80(?) for sound) it compared well.

As an aside: apparently the SNES was an absolute *PIG* to develop for,which is where there is absolutely *NO* homebrew scene for it today.

Interestingly the homebrew NES, A2600 scenes are active and from whatI've seen of those platforms - the SNES must've been really, really,*REALLY* horrible to program for!!!
