Actually I wouldn't say that about any of those three games you mentioned. They all look pretty doable.

Well, with these lessened requirements off course you could port almost any game from that era....
Here comes the formula:
Give up the parallax, reduce colours to 32 and then reduce the frame count to whatever works with the amount of blits you need to do.
Every now and then load stuff from disk if you can't keep everything in RAM.
Bam, this will surely be an amazing arcade port.
