+Some cartridges and software allow to use most of Nintendo's portable consoles as live instrument or Remix effects generators.
 Because such consoles are cheap and easy to transport, having an in-built video display, and being iconic of the 8bit or digital era, this is quite popular.

 Compared to ZX spectrum the Amstrad clearly failed to impose itself on the AY-scene. Perhaps because it was less popular worldwide, perhaps because it lacks a built-in Midi Port.
 To have MIDI on an Amstrad an external peripheral is needed, being somewhat less reliable than a directly built-in connector.

+As a result, not a lot of Chip-Tune bands actually use an Amstrad computer for live performances (but the ZX spectrums from Amstrad...). Worth of notice is the french [[Ultrasyd]] who may uses an Amstrad CPC6128 alongside Atari ST and Nintendo Gameboy and actually produced some tunes for the CPC scene as well.
 This is somewhat of a shame, as the 6128+ would be a good machine for such purpose thanks to it's DMA channels and the possibility to put software on Cartridge/Rom.

 It is also to note that many arcade systems or home consoles also included an AY-family chip.
