I know one guy (who writes game software for a living) who has designed his
own IIGS board to run a Nintendo. And I believe that sanctioned Nintendo
development is done using an IBM cross-compiler. The Nintendo itself uses a
65xx logic chip ...

So their stuff can and does run on real computers, although it may not be real
easy to make it happen. Or real worth it.

Real worth it? Is that a sentence?
