I was checking out a bunch of arcade classics for the C64 on the x64 emu (VICE?) to see how they compared to the CV versions. They didn't suck but almost every C64 version was far inferior to the CV version. I thought at first maybe it was just a case of lazy programming. That would explain one or two but almost every one I tried looked and sounded worse. What's the deal?! I always thought and was led to believe the C64 was more powerful than the CV. It has 2x the memory. Is the emulator fucked up and not displaying it properly or are they really like this? Is the music all "chirpy" like that on every game?
These are the ones I was comparing to the CV versions:
Burgertime
Burnin rubber aka Bump n jump
q-bert
smurfen
Tarzan
Mr. Do!
Galaxian
Defender
Jungle Hunt
Centipede
