I really don't think that the SNES would beable to do a game such as DOOM
for one thing the CPU only goes at 3mhz and all of its built in effects
chips really wouldn't help it in doing a game such as DOOM. The SNES is
a much better system in doing games such as MKII and so on that require a
smooth scrolling background and lots of sprite action.
Salute.
