Like computer power limits movie graphics . 8 bits aint a lot to work with. You can write music that is stirring, but limited in scope.

There’s a Japanese safety reg that requires heavy machinery to play a jingle while performing automated functions. While performing plate changes, our presses would play various tunes, some of which were from old Nintendo games.
