IF Amstrad CPC computer had release same time as C64 and if they hadn't had loads of ZX Speccy Port instead of Amstrad CPC port(you can check how good Pinball Dream(they release very late) or R Type(2012) or Operation Wolf

Do you think Amstrad CPC would beat C64 over the time?



There also another interesting one is MSX 2 which way better all 8 bit if they release in 1982 !

Here another interesting one

MSX2​

The MSX2, using the Yamaha V9938 video chip, can display up to 256 colors on screen at once in Screen Mode 7 (256×212 resolution). In other modes, it can show 16 colors simultaneously, selected from a palette of 512.

Amstrad CPC​

The Amstrad CPC supports 16 colors on screen at once, chosen from a fixed palette of 27 colors generated by a 3-level RGB system (3 bits per channel)

So the little Panasonic FS-A1 MSX2 that I have (and only use for an audio application) can do "Amiga AGA" 256 Colors?
 
Well I have been told that MSX 2 is 8bit computer and can do The MSX2, using the Yamaha V9938 video chip, can display up to 256 colors on screen at once in Screen Mode 7 (256×212 resolution) which is way better than any 8bit to have 256 Colors on screen at once! That is impressive even thought they release it in 1985 !
