How would that relate to what I referred to, i.e. the usage of:
- "faster blitter",
- "more Chip RAM",
- "tons (for an Amiga) of Fast RAM" and
- "SuperAGA instructions"?
I don't see how a program leveraging all those features could run on an old m68k Amiga at all or at least fast enough.
The last one, SuperAGA instructions, can be wrapped in existing driver formats. It's only the hardware-banging stuff that won't work on anything less than a NatAmi.
The first paragraph of my post referred to the N68050/070 instruction set and showed how new features could be incorporated without losing backward compatibility to the 68040/060 instruction set.
