Could it have run on the gameboy color? Mario 1 could

Rare managed DKC, so yes I believe so

my hunch is yes, with a ton of tweaks

Yes but with zoomed crap unplayable visuals.

Yes but it would be unplayable

the GBC is quite a bit more capable than the NES. easy.

The screen crunch would have made the autoscrolling levels very challenging for anyone who didn't already know the game. And those people likely would have been making threads bitching about Mario 3 on /vr/ every day. That sounds like a mildly annoying alternate timeline.

Would Mega Man Xtreme be possible on the NES? I've always been curious about this

It would lose all the appeal

The first one, yes, it's very barebones.
The second one, no, it would have had a fuckload of slowdown.

The screen is too small but otherwise the GBC's specs are so enormously higher than the NES's that if anything ran badly it would be from sheer developer incompetence.

>tfw as a kid always hoped Nintendo would do a Super Mario Bros Deluxe style GBC port of 3

The GBA just isn't the same

gba should have been more snes like
it ended up as the most crusty hardware ever and in a period with the most crusty games even the first party stuff was pretty scummy at times
