Last I checked, the only way to run a 16 bit game from my childhood is on Linux. Very easy. Odd to congratulate Microsoft on backwards compatibility when they are not doing better than Linux.


They are still doing better than Linux. Try running a 16-bit Linux game from your childhood on... anything.


> a 16-bit Linux game from your childhood

Ah the fond memories of playing 16-bit native Linux games in 1987


I almost explained that was not meant literally but I thought it was obvious enough...


If it was meant figuratively one has to wonder what point you're trying to get across.


Mainline linux never supported 16 bit cpus.
