The 8:7 artwork aspect ratio is visible in a few SFC/SNES ports to other platforms, like ROCKMANX3 / Mega Man X3. The PSX/Saturn/PC versions of that game retain the original art unstretched and instead add stage-appropriate pillarbars to pad the 8:7 out to 4:3. Very distracting to play since I'm used to the original ver. Check out some screenshots of the Saturn ver here and you can see it — everything is slightly too skinny: https://segaretro.org/Mega_Man_X3
