The biggest problem was protection systems on games - games like Populous just crash when starting to load on a 68010. If you use WHDLoad, of course, that's not an issue, but for original disks you're better off with a 68000.

The copy protected games that don't work are usually using Rob Northern protection...the protection scheme does horrible things with stack frames or something, I did know at one point but I've forgotten now. Doesn't matter which kickstart version you had, though.
