For MAME purposes, it's important to remember this is the guy who went on the Crazy Otto publicity tour and then refused to give us the ROMs.

Regarding the 7800, the NES hardware was far more flexible, and based around the dominant paradigm (sprites/tilemaps), while the 7800 was more of a blitter/display list type of system. Thus, it was far easier to port arcade and SMS/MSX(2/3) games to the NES than the 7800.
