TSR COMPO Vol.3: "In the name of goodNES"

[Vipershark]

most of these mockups (if not all of them) would suffer horrible amounts of flickering( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flicker_%28screen%29 )

Pointing out that something will be a problem is pretty useless without why it is a problem.

...what?
Aside from it being in the link there, it's already been posted in the thread.


NES games can only support so many things both onscreen and on the same scanline at one time.
When there are too many things, you get a bunch of flickering and things start to disappear. This is seen a lot in Megaman games, for example.

In other words, while a lot of this stuff would technically *run*, it'd look awful and you wouldn't even be able to see any of it most of the time. Possible, but highly impractical.
