I was watching my favourite nes game in original mode. And it was better in NES.

I am aroused about any X86 motherboard that has full functional ISA slot. I think i have problem. Not really into that original (Turbo) XT,286,386 and CGA/EGA stuff. So just a DOS nut.
PS. If I upload RAR, it is a 16-bit DOS RAR Version 2.50.

Yes, NES version was more satisfying I'd say.
Arcade version had to cram a horizontal scrolling shooter into a vertical screen so player character's run speed was sluggish.
