Are SNES games 60 fps?
Most SNES games were locked to a 60fps frame rate, and designers of the time tuned their games so the SNES hardware could maintain that frame rate. The result, for most standard SNES games, is the complete removal of the infamous frame rate slowdown that showed up when too many sprites clogged up the screen.
How many pixels does a Commodore 64 have?
That’s called the overscan area, and since that varies widely from TV to TV, that’s why the home computers all had this border. But the Commodore 64 has 63 to 65 machine cycles per scanline, depending on if it’s PAL or NTSC; each of those cycles is 8 hires pixels or 4 lores pixels. 40 of those cycles are the 320 pixels inside the borders.
Why was the Commodore 64 so popular in the UK?

How many pixels per clock cycle on a C64?
That gets tricky, so lets try: A NTSC C64 runs at 1.022727 MHz, with 8 Pixels displayed per clock cycle. That’s 0.122 µs per pixel. Thus a 52.7 µs line content (*2) does equal 431.18 pixel length. For PAL the numbers are 0.98524 MHz and 0,127 µs per pixel, resulting in 415,38 pixel times.
