Yes, emulator was the first time.
And on PAL, PMODE4 B/W wasn't B/W unless we turned the TV color adjust
to zero. We did get a sort of artifacting but not the same as NTSC. We
had no solid red and blue regions. For PAL we got vertical stripes of a
dirty magenta and green. It looked crap... hence why I turned the TV
color off.
I often questioned why the Color Computer was called "Color" Computer
since so many games looked like this.
