    The second one is actually nothing more than a regular old Flash control, same as for web games. They just pasted it inside an Excel spreadsheet to make it seem more mysterious/impressive.

    The first one in the video seems like it might be the real thing in pure VBA, which is considerably more impressive.

    Oh, and to be pedantic: Hudson released "Super Mario Bros Special" for the PC-8801 back in the day ;)

    Then it was to late.

    You could've also said "IBM compatible PCs", which is what the PC-8801 definitely wasn't :p

    The game itself looked great, but the guy picked up a green mushroom and grew bigger...unacceptable! :)
