NES aint any prob on the CISC OS 4.x CPUs. and it would be way mor useful, cause almost every user out there has a non ARM Clie and the ARM 5.x users could also use this tools cause they would be most likely emulated correctly on their ARM. Thats why most emulation software still is released for 4.x Clies.
So ARM is some nice stuff, but you would develop only for a fraction of the market. And anything til the NES (this includes the C64, Atari VCS 2600, GameBox, GameBoy Color, ZX Spectrum, ... ) could be easily emulated on the 4.x Clies.
And SNES could be easily done indeed on the ARM Clies. But you have to optimize them for the ARM CPU and not just recompile them and hope that everything would run fine.
