As a crazy idea yesterday, I also wondered about the feasibility of hooking another wire to the printer port of both GS's. Since the modem port wire is definitely going to have to …

Michael Mahon did a pong demo over NadaNet recently... just start googling ;-) But I have heard of something similar being done in the '80s, though I'm not sure what interface w…

I'm curious to know if there are any network games for the 8-bit Apple II? Such as where you'd connect two Apples together with a serial cable (or, heaven forbid, cassette ports) t…

I've never really liked the 6502, it's like an 8 bit CPU going out of it's way to limit everything to 8 bits. Click to expand... From my perspective (ie: a dabbler, not a progr…

As for the accompanying carts, as long as they aren't sold in developed nations, noone is going to care if they are pirated. Most of those countries have larger concerns than enfo…

It does look cool, but I wonder whether Nintendo won't shut them down, what with it using the Nintendo architecture and all. Click to expand... If it's based on the NES, the pa…
