Battle Chess is a computer game version of chess in which the chess pieces come to life and battle one another when capturing. It was originally developed and released by Interplay Entertainment for the Amiga in 1988 and subsequently on many other systems, including 3DO Interactive Multiplayer, Acorn Archimedes, Amiga CD32, Amiga CDTV, Apple IIGS, Apple IIe, Atari ST, Commodore 64, MS-DOS, FM Towns, NES, Mac OS, NEC PC-9801, X68000 and Microsoft Windows. In 1991, Battle Chess Enhanced was released by Interplay for the PC, featuring improved VGA graphics and a symphonic musical score that played from the CD-ROM.

it will not as it does not do double buffer right redream new devbuild works it perfect if that helps this be a battle of the ports of games that have working emulators on dreamcast.. not be doing lots of these not even release the update of the media player lol..

type of thing you can do with it include even video of the game high res screen shots etc manuals soundtracks etc
