You don't need to 'claim' anything. It's written into the rules of the blockchain. You cannot change the rules like that and expect to have your blocks appended to the canonical chain.
I suppose you might argue that the amiga paved the way for the architecture of the PS2 - the copper chip ran a rudimentary display list, the blitter hardware accelerated graphics operations. But I wouldn't say there is a direct relationship... wait you're not talking about the CDTV, are you?
The GS (graphics chip) in the PS2 had a great hardware bug whereby if you turned off the z-test, it would never come back on again. You had to change the z mode to always pass to get around it.
