I do think a Vanilla A500/A600 could have a proper Beat'em up game - The best ones released on the machine were Golden Axe and Shadow Warriors, good ports of average games. IMO its the genre the system is severely lacking.

That Final Fight remake has the potential to be the best game in the genre, but it will still need 2Mbs to run.

But I don't think this would be doable with an engine like Beats of Rage, you'd have to code it properly, from scratch.
