Why a Neo Geo port of Doom is functionally impossible

Here at Ars, we've taken pleasure in reporting on versions of Doom that run on everything from wireless earbuds and printers to Windows' notepad.exe and even inside Doom itself . So when we hear that a piece of game-playing hardware from the '90s (or later) can't run Doom , our ears perk up. That hardware is the Neo Geo, an early '90s game console that players of a certain age will remember for its eye-watering launch price and its relatively strong pixel-pushing power for the time.
