Also, how the fuck do you even assume that the Genesis can't display a game with proper atmosphere. Have you not ever played the thing? It handles a whole ton of atmospheres and looks. It's competent hardware and the games for it span a wide berth of atmosphere and motifs all over the place. There's absolutely zero things about SM that would somehow be unrepresentable on the Genesis. Not 1:1 obviously, but yeah the game could be done in more or less the same way barring the button issue you'll run up against without a six button controller and even then the layout is shittier than the SNES controller.
I mean, just what is it you think that the Genesis would fail to replicate for the most part? The grey blocks? The red blocks? The blue blocks? The Green blocks? The red doors? The squiggly heat effect? Fill me in here how the Genesis isn't capable of producing a close facsimile because it sounds like you're confusing the Genesis with a fucking ZX Spectrum.
