The star field in the background is missing on stage 1. Even the Pc-Engine could draw stars. X68000 is therefor much fail.

No, here's the real 'Super Grafx' system, playing many of the games supported by the Huge Controller:

Holy Super Shocker, Batman ... a ¥369,000 home computer has better graphics hardware than a ¥39,800 games console!!!

Do you think that I can expect the same sort of difference between a $1,700 Alienware Area-51 desktop verses a $5 Raspberry PI-zero???

What's interesting to me is less about how good the X68000 was (though I'm looking forward to eventually receiving one), but rather just how great the SuperGrafx was for it's time and price, and how we never got the opportunity to see it's capabilities really stretched in the CD-ROM and Arcade Card era.
