the creator cracked it open and stuck some extra hardware inside to help the device run Doom.

Wait what. What hardware? I feel like that doesn't really count? Like I can run doom on my guitar if I stick a computer in there.

Pretty much why "it runs doom" got boring. It turned into "we hooked up a computer to this weird proprietary screen to display Doom" rather than "this weird computer hardware runs Doom".
