I tried it on my Pocket386 (real hardware) but the game won't start,
saying it needs a joystick to play. And it's true: I don't have a
joystick or a mouse connected to this. My joystick and my mice are all
USB, and this system doesn't recognize the on-board USB port.

But at least it doesn't give a blue screen. If I had a mouse, maybe it
would do something.
