That's true, and until pretty recently, GPUs were not general-purpose enough to be able to accurately emulate certain esoterica associated with the sorts of 3D hardware found in arcades. Similarly, until pretty recently, there wasn't an acceptably cross-platform rendering abstraction layer like BGFX. Both of these things have changed.
